===Biddygrub===
{{main|Biddygrub}}
{{main|Biddygrub}}
Biddygrubs are brightly-colored mandiblards that resemble Swarming Sheargrubs in both shape and behavior. They are harmless and docile creatures that travel in organized packs, usually in the formation of a line or circle.
The Biddygrub follows one another in specific formations.

===Coastal Sheargrub===
===Coastal Sheargrub===
{{main|Coastal Sheargrub}}
{{main|Coastal Sheargrub}}
They are mustard-colored mandiblards with beige shells, red mouths, purple eyes, and numerous small yellow feet, making them one of the few mandiblards with limbs. They resemble the real-world mole crab. They are most common in, but not exclusive to, the jungle island's beaches.

===Darkfreeze Shearwig===
===Darkfreeze Shearwig===
{{main|Darkfreeze Shearwig}}
{{main|Darkfreeze Shearwig}}
A Darkfreeze Shearwig is a Shearwig that has been infused with Darkfreeze energy. It is dark purple, with long bladelike wings and a sharp segmented body. Its pincers are made of solid ice, and it has two glowing red eyes. Once it emerges from the ground, it acts like a normal Shearwig until it is damaged enough, in which it will briefly fly away and then quickly dive back down into the ground where it took off from, taking any Pikmin caught underneath with it. They have much more health than normal Shearwigs.
The Darkfreeze Shearwig is a species of winged mandiblard infused with darkfreeze energy.

===Electro-Grub===
===Electro-Grub===
{{main|Electro-Grub}}
{{main|Electro-Grub}}
They resemble the typical sheargrub but are blue with yellow stripes. Electro-grubs electrocute any Pikmin, besides Yellow Pikmin that touch them, and may also eat Pikmin in front of them. They may only be killed using Yellow Pikmin. Swarming them is an effective strategy, but throwing a Yellow Pikmin directly on top of one will kill it instantly.
The Electro-Grub can generate electricity.
{{clear}}


===Feargrub===
===Feargrub===
{{main|Feargrub}}
{{main|Feargrub}}
It has a large spike on its back, for it flips over near your Pikmin, to impale them, but it will become stuck in the ground so your Pikmin can attack it. Like Male Sheargrubs, swarming isn't a good stradegy.
The Feargrub invokes panic or has other notable characteristics.
{{clear}}


===Female Sheargrub===
===Female Sheargrub===
{{main|Female Sheargrub}}
{{main|Female Sheargrub}}
Female Sheargrubs are a much lighter color than the [[Male Sheargrub|males]] and have significantly smaller mandibles, making them unable to cause direct harm to a leader or any [[Pikmin Family|Pikmin]], though they are still a menace to [[bridge]]s. They can be ignored in most situations, perhaps only useful as a means of easy-access [[nectar]], which they will produce if killed while [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]].
The Female Sheargrub follows leaders and Pikmin.
{{clear}}


===Female Shearwig===
===Female Shearwig===
{{main|Female Shearwig}}
{{main|Female Shearwig}}
It is much larger than the male shearwigs and in fact is surrounded by the bugs. It emerges from the ground and lumbers around very slowly, rearing back when it nears Pikmin and then slashing forwards, eating Pikmin. The backside is vulnerable and the attack can be easily sidestepped. The fight gets harder after it takes 50% damage because it will start flapping its wings occasionally to push over your Pikmin. During the entire fight you'll be pestered with male shearwigs as well, which will stop attacking after the female is defeated.
The Female Shearwig commands lesser shearwigs.
{{clear}}


===Fiery Sheargrub===
===Fiery Sheargrub===
{{main|Fiery Sheargrub}}
{{main|Fiery Sheargrub}}
Fiery Sheargrubs resemble Female Sheargrubs and are perpetually cloaked in flames, making [[Red Pikmin]] necessary to defeat them.

{{main|Flaming Supershear}}
The Flaming Supershear is engulfed in flames and can fly.


===Glittery Sheargrub===
===Glittery Sheargrub===
{{main|Glittery Sheargrub}}
{{main|Glittery Sheargrub}}
The Glittering Sheargrub is a wandering mandiblard, much like the Swarming Sheargrub. Glittery Sheargrubs travel alone or in groups, and when they are threatened, they scatter glitter around themselves and make a swift escape while the Pikmin attacking them panic.
The Glittery Sheargrub scatters panic-inducing particles to defend itself.
{{clear}}


===Golden Sheargrub===
===Golden Sheargrub===
{{main|Golden Sheargrub}}
{{main|Golden Sheargrub}}
The Golden Sheargrub is an extraordinarily rare subspecies of mandiblard that has a durable golden shell. Golden Sheargrubs cannot kill Pikmin, but their hard shell and tendency to flee make them tedious to kill. If allowed to, Golden Sheargrubs will eventually burrow into the ground and never reemerge.
The Golden Sheargrub has a shining golden exoskeleton.
{{clear}}


===Greater Shearlit===
===Greater Shearlit===
{{main|Greater Shearlit}}
{{main|Greater Shearlit}}
This large Mandiblard will stay underground until Olimar walks over it.
The Greater Shearlit remains under the ground until approached, prompting it to attack, and may spew fire or ignite itself.
{{clear}}


===Green Burrow Bug===
===Green Burrow Bug===
{{main|Green Burrow Bug}}
{{main|Green Burrow Bug}}
They look like green Burrow Bugs. They live in wet areas, like The Fountsin Valley, and can eat up to 1 Pikmin at a time. They are not too different from their blue cousins, so they are about the same level of a threat.
The Green Burrow Bug is semiaquatic and eats Pikmin.
{{clear}}


===Hunnagrub===
===Hunnagrub===
{{main|Hunnagrub}}
{{main|Hunnagrub}}
The Hunnagrub is an airborne member of the mandiblard family. They can be difficult to defeat due to their sheer speed and because they are coated in adhesive. A trip stone will take a Hunnagrub out in an instant.
The Hunnagrub secretes adhesive or nectar.
{{clear}}


===Icy Shearwig===
===Icy Shearwig===
{{main|Icy Shearwig}}
{{main|Icy Shearwig}}
The Icy Shearwig is a member of the mandiblard family that inhabits frigid environments. It is a close relative of the Shearwig and behaves much like it, but when Pikmin or leaders touch an Icy Shearwig, they become increasingly chilled so long as they maintain contact with it.
The Icy Shearwig is a winged mandiblard protected by ice.
{{clear}}


===Jackwig===
===Jackwig===
{{main|Jackwig}}
{{main|Jackwig}}
Jackwigs are part of the mandiblard family. They are well known for their wasp like markings. They eat pikmin and unlike a lot of mandiblards they create nests underground to create colonies. They are also known to have visible nests on white and black gates. They do a great job warding off predators because they carry poisonous stingers to stab creatures, and their bright coloration warns predators to back off. If the predator isn't warded by it's coloration, they pull out their stingers and use it without hesitation. They don't eat bridges but they try to rebuild gates which hold their nests.
The Jackwig is a winged mandiblard that constructs hives, most commonly on bramble gates, and defends itself by using its stinger to inject poison.
{{clear}}


===Leafcutter Sheargrub===
===Leafcutter Sheargrub===
{{main|Leafcutter Sheargrub}}
{{main|Leafcutter Sheargrub}}
The Leafcutter Sheargrub is much of the same way to a typical Male Sheargrub, and about the same size as well, but with the exception of brownish skin, and a leaf-like body structure on its back, evolved from wings as a camouflage much like a Skitter Leaf. Leafcutter Sheargrubs are typically found in groups, and when not much meat is around, will change their diet and eat on dead leaves instead. Unlike other Sheargrubs, it doesn't burrow underground, but instead lays dormant and camouflages itself to resemble a leaf.
The Leafcutter Sheargrub feeds on leaves and uses them to its benefit.
{{clear}}


===Lesser Shearlit===
===Lesser Shearlit===
{{main|Lesser Shearlit}}
{{main|Lesser Shearlit}}
This small Mandiblard will eat Pikmin then burrow underground until stepped over again by Olimar.

===Lighter Shearwig===
===Lighter Shearwig===
{{main|Lighter Shearwig}}
{{main|Lighter Shearwig}}
The Lighter Shearwig is a relative of the Shearwig and sports a tan body, green eyes, and blue wings. It glows faintly and behaves similarly to its relative except it has the ability to spew a jet of fire from its mouth, making Red Pikmin useful in a battle against them.
The Lighter Shearwig can breathe fire or spontaneously combust.

===Lofty Shearglub===
{{main|Lofty Shearglub}}
The Lofty Shearglub flies away from danger.


===Male Sheargrub===
===Male Sheargrub===
{{main|Male Sheargrub}}
{{main|Male Sheargrub}}
Male Sheargrubs have a dark purple shell and large mandibles. They are capable of attacking leaders and the [[Pikmin Family|Pikmin]], but are not a serious threat, as they can only eat one Pikmin at a time.
The Male Sheargrub can eat Pikmin and attack leaders.

===Mama Sheargrub===
{{main|Mama Sheargrub}}
The Mama Sheargrub flails wildly in an attempt to crush anything caught underneath it.


===Mandiblard Larva===
===Mandiblard Larva===
{{main|Mandiblard Larva}}
{{main|Mandiblard Larva}}
Mandiblard Larvae are small, glowing, larval mandiblards. Like Bulborb Larvae, Mandiblard Larvae are easy to kill and leave no remains after dying. They cannot kill Pikmin or harm leaders and are beneficial to have around because of the light they produce.
The Mandiblard Larvae is a young mandiblard
{{clear}}


===Metal Shearwig===
===Metal Shearwig===
{{main|Metal Shearwig}}
{{main|Metal Shearwig}}
Metal Shearwigs strongly resemble Shearwigs in shape and size, being a small, limbless, winged grub-like creature, but not so much in color. They have a shiny, dark gray exoskeleton protecting their face, lime green eyes, light blue, translucent wings, and a fleshy, pink backside. Although a Metal Shearwig is small and may seem simple to dispatch, it proves to be a challenging foe in battle, even when alone, because of its behaviors and vitality. Attacking one head-on is futile and may result in Pikmin casualties or harm to leaders, and while charging Pikmin at one is generally a fast and reliable strategy, it is only effective against grounded Metal Shearwigs.
The Metal Shearwig may be either a robot or a stronger relative of the Shearwig.
{{clear}}


===Mistmite===
===Mistmite===
{{main|Mistmite}}
{{main|Mistmite}}
Mistmites lurk under the cover of the fog patches in the Woods of Occlusion. They seek out Pikmin and then leap at them in a tall arc, impaling up to two Pikmin with their sharp noses upon landing. The thick fog hides Mistmites fairly well, but they can still be faintly seen creeping along the ground.
The Mistmite conceals itself in fog or mist.
{{clear}}


===Painted Sheargrub===
===Painted Sheargrub===
{{main|Painted Sheargrub}}
{{main|Painted Sheargrub}}
The Painted Sheargrub is a mandiblard that is highly sought-after because of its Poko value. Like most mandiblards, they emerge from the ground when leaders or their Pikmin come near, but as they are timid creatures, they may retreat under the ground even before they are attacked.
The Painted Sheargrub has a vibrant appearance.

===Patchy Sheargrub===
{{main|Patchy Sheargrub}}
{{main|Patchy Sheargrub}}
The Patchy Sheargrub is a mandiblard that evolved to display bright colors, patch-like patterns, and an overall stitched-together appearance. As they move, Patchy Sheargrubs emit a snipping noise that is reminiscent of the sound a pair of scissors makes while using them.
The Patchy Sheargrub has patches of color on it or resembles a plush.
{{clear}}


===Pinching Sheargrub===
===Pinching Sheargrub===
{{main|Pinching Sheargrub}}
{{main|Pinching Sheargrub}}
Even though this sheargrub looks squishy and harmless, it can pinch and kill up to 3 pikmin at once. It is indeed a part of the Mandiblard family and will not attack if you leave it alone.
The Pinching Sheargrub pinches Pikmin.
{{clear}}
 
===Plated Sheargrub===
{{main|Plated Sheargrub}}
The Plated Sheargrub is an armored mandiblard. It is orange in natural color with a red and yellow underbelly, its markings on its stomach resembling that of a bull's eye target. They have elongated jaws, and as the name suggested, silver armor plates running down its back for protection against predators. Unlike other Mandiblards, the Plated Sheargrub will not react when normal Pikmin attack it, since its armor plating blocks off most casual attacks.
{{clear}}


===Plump Sheargrub===
===Plump Sheargrub===
{{main|Plump Sheargrub}}
{{main|Plump Sheargrub}}
It vaguely resembles a fat Male Sheargrub in color and size, and has a small, purple body, beady green eyes, a tan and brown underside and mandibles, a lavender-colored mouth, and what appears to be four small nubs that act as feet. It moves very quickly and has extreme difficulty catching and eating Pikmin as a result.
The Plump Sheargrub has a thick layer of fat protecting itself.

The Quarrying Sheargrub reveals geysers when it tunnels into the ground.


===Queen Shearwig===
===Queen Shearwig===
{{main|Queen Shearwig}}
{{main|Queen Shearwig}}
The Queen Shearwig is a large mandiblard, and leader of a swarm of Shearwigs. It rarely attacks directly, instead choosing to send its army of Shearwigs to attack leaders and the Pikmin accompanying them. The Shearwigs also serve as protection to their queen, which is usually reached once the Shearwigs in the way are cleared. In P:TDoP, its scientific name is the same as the Shearwigs'.
The Queen Shearwig is a winged mandiblard matriarch that commands lesser shearwigs.
{{clear}}


===Rad Sheargrub===
===Rad Sheargrub===
{{main|Rad Sheargrub}}
{{main|Rad Sheargrub}}
The Rad Sheargrub is a mandiblard that has been saturated in radiation. Radiation permeates its entire body, causing it to emit a sickly green glow. Just being within close proximity to the creature can be dangerous, as it can cause mutations in Pikmin and turn them against the leaders commanding them. Extended radiation exposure can eventually kill Pikmin and severely harm leaders, but Rad Pikmin are immune to its effects.
The Rad Sheargrub emits radiation.

===Sandy Swarming Sheargrub===
===Sandy Swarming Sheargrub===
{{main|Sandy Swarming Sheargrub}}
{{main|Sandy Swarming Sheargrub}}
Sandy Swarming Sheargrubs are unusual mandiblards that inhabit deserts, being found mainly near oases, buried under the sand. They have beady, blue eyes, and their small, yellow bodies are covered in sand and dirt due to the lime green slime that seeps out of their skin. The natural debris coating the body of a Sandy Swarming Sheargrub gives it little extra protection from predators. The slime produced by the creatures is sticky, and only Green Pikmin may resist becoming stuck to it.
The Sandy Swarming Sheargrub resides within sand.

===Shearant===
===Shearant===
{{main|Shearant}}
{{main|Shearant}}
The Shearant is an intelligent mandiblard that possesses legs, a characteristic thought to have been possessed by ancient mandiblards. Whether the Shearant has retained its limbs through time or has evolved enough to regain them is unclear, but they are intelligent creatures that can organize themselves similarly to Pikmin. They can be witnessed performing tasks such as carrying corpses, drinking nectar, and attacking in organized formations.

===Shearblug===
===Shearblug===
{{main|Shearblug}}
{{main|Shearblug}}
The Shearblug is a water-breathing mandiblard. It resembles a Female Sheargrub with a longer, more grub-like body and spots on its sides. It attacks by curling into a ball, forcing spikes to emerge from its back, then rolling toward threats. It can be defeated by throwing a single Pikmin onto it when its spikes are retracted. In P:TDoP, itts scientific name is ''Himeagea rotundus''.
The Shearblug patrols its territory until seeing Pikmin, wherein it curls up to project its spikes and then rolls after them.

===Shearpion===
===Shearpion===
{{main|Shearpion}}
{{main|Shearpion}}
Mandiblards like the Sheargrub lost their wings and legs over time, and while some have partially developed wings or legs, like the Shearwig and Shearant, only the mighty Shearpion has regained the use of both wings and legs. The Shearpion is enormous for a Mandiblard; it's about the same size as a Fiery Blowhog. Its armored carapace is pure black and its eyes are yellow. It has multiple legs, like a Shearant, but it also has large wings that allow it to fly out of harm's reach if injured. The most unique feature of this advanced killer is its long tail, ending in a sharp scythe. It normally drags the tail along the ground, but if approached, it will raise the tail to make itself appear larger.
The Shearpion is a legged and also sometimes winged mandiblard that has a bladed tail used to skewer prey.

===Shearwig===
{{main|Shearwig}}
{{main|Shearwig}}
Shearwigs are troublesome mandiblards to deal with. The females of this species are never seen, as they spend nearly their entire life underground. The males have a dark green shell, sporting simple wings and large, sickle-shaped mouthparts. They are slightly more aggressive than [[Male Sheargrub]]s and will fly to safety when their health reaches half; up in the air, they regain health. One well-aimed [[Pikmin Family|Pikmin]] will bring a flying Shearwig down for good.
The Shearwig is a winged mandiblard that can eat Pikmin.

===Shielded Sheargrub===
===Shielded Sheargrub===
{{main|Shielded Sheargrub}}
{{main|Shielded Sheargrub}}
The Shielded Sheargrub is a mandiblard that is protected by a large chitinous growth covering its face. This armor-like growth is for defense against predators. Shielded Sheargrubs cannot be attacked from the front, but they are vulnerable from behind, making them somewhat similar to Joustmites in terms of battle strategy. A Shielded Sheargrub can be critically injured, but not outright killed if at full health, by throwing a Pikmin onto its back.
The Shielded Sheargrub is protected by armor plating.

===Speargrub===
===Speargrub===
{{main|Speargrub}}
{{main|Speargrub}}
Speargrubs are a type of mandiblard that are green in color, with a small, teal mouth and spikes lining their back. They emerge from holes on various surfaces and slowly crawl down until they duck into another hole, where they will return to the first hole and repeat at regular intervals. They do not actively pursue Pikmin, but are still hazardous due to the spikes, so they should be treated as an [[obstacle]]. [[Rock Pikmin]] cannot be hurt by the spikes, and throwing one at a Speargrub will kill it. In P:TDoP, its scientific name is ''Himeagea dentefaber''.
The Speargrub is covered in spikes and travels through holes in walls.

{{main|Sporegrub}}
Sporegrubs, unlike other members of the mandiblard family, have no visible mouths. Their heads are dark brown with bright green eyes, and their bodies are purple with pink spots. Two rows of spikes line their backs, though these are just for show and don't harm Pikmin. They also have six tiny legs, making them the only mandiblard to have visible limbs. When approached, Sporegrubs attack by expelling [[Poison|poisonous gas]]. They can be defeated by a single Pikmin thrown onto them.
The Sporegrub releases poisonous clouds at Pikmin.

===Stingeret===
===Stingeret===
{{main|Stingeret}}
{{main|Stingeret}}
The Stingeret is a form of mutated Male Sheargrub. They have glowing red eyes, red stripes along their main body, an "X" on their forehead, a red and green mouth, and a red stinger. Their main form of attack is to try to eat Pikmin and bite leaders, and when they lunge during a bite, the stinger on their backside can impale a nearby Pikmin. Pikmin that are caught on the stinger will eventually die if the Stingeret isn't killed quickly enough.
The Stingeret has a stinger on its rear.

===Swarming Sheargrub===
{{main|Swarming Sheargrub}}
{{main|Swarming Sheargrub}}
Swarming Sheargrubs are a green subspecies of the mandiblard family, quite similar to the Female Sheargrub. They are usually found in groups of six to eight. They can drink [[nectar]] to increase in size and weigh objects down. When attacked, the entire group goes into a panic and scatters. Swarming Sheargrubs can't attack leaders or Pikmin, making it the second member of this family to be completely harmless. Their mandibles are shorter and stubbier than a [[Female Sheargrub]]'s, but only by a little bit. Although they have many similarities to the Female Sheargrubs, they do not have a known gender.
