Robot family
- Other
- It takes 7 Pikmin to carry, with a maximum of 10. It gives 4 Pikmin seeds when brought to an Onion and is worth 6 pokos.
- It is always seen with some concrete bricks around it.
Behavior
- Pikmin: Shadows of the Future
- It stays in one spot, stacking some concrete bricks and building. When it sees a captain or a Pikmin, it will pick up whatever it can, concrete bricks, pellets, corpses, etc and throw them. The weight of the item determines what damage is caused. A small object like a 1 pellet will only knock some Pikmin away, while a big, heavy one like a dead Armored Cannon Beetle will almost certainly crush some Pikmin while deflowering the rest. It can even pick up Pikmin and use them against their own kind!
Strategy to defeat
- Most Games
- Throw large amounts of Pikmin, preferably Purple Pikmin, onto it, but be sure to call them back when it shakes them off. Be warned that it can use your Pikmin as weapons!
