The '''Peckish Aristocrab''' is an [[Onionshell family|onionshell]] that mainly rests in a motionless position, clacking its larger, [[crystal]]line pincers. It can detect a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]'s presence from afar and will quickly scuttle sideways onto their path when they come near, circling them in order to get in their way. This creature can react to the Pikmin in many ways, because there are three different ways it can defend itself, and two different ways it can kill Pikmin. When Pikmin are thrown at it, the creature is capable of maneuvering its massive claw to shield itself from the thrown Pikmin; it can also defend itself by blowing [[bubble]]s at attacking Pikmin, which can trap them and [[leader]]s inside. When Pikmin are charged at it, it stands up so they pass underneath it. It attacks by grasping multiple Pikmin with its claw and dropping them into its gaping mouth. It can also stab the ground with its claw to attack. [[Rock Pikmin]] can be used to destroy its larger pincers, disarming it and rendering it harmless except for its bubbles.

The '''Peckish Aristorcrab''' is a returning enemy appearing in ''[[Pikmin: Decayed Leaf]]''. It retains its crystal-colored pincer, just like that of its {{p3}} incarnation. The crab is much faster and stronger, now acting as somewhat of a miniboss. The creature retains its usual attack of being able to swipe and eat [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. It can also lift up its body if charged, promptly smashing it down to [[Blunt force|crush]] Pikmin underneath. [[Dart Pikmin]] thrown at the claw will get stuck in the crystal, doing major damage to it. If attacked, the Peckish Aristocrab will blow [[bubble]]s to trap Pikmin inside, though [[Steel Pikmin|Weighted Pikmin]] and [[Spike Pikmin|Cactus Pikmin]] cannot be caught in the bubbles. Aside from its usual attacks, it has two new ones. Its first is smashing its large claw into the dirt, rooting it there. If Pikmin are caught by this attack, they will be swiftly killed. Its other attack is expelling a torrent of [[water]] from its mouth, which can choke non-[[Blue Pikmin]]. [[Spike Pikmin|Cactus Pikmin]] benefit from the water spat out. Peckish Aristocrabs rarely can be of a larger size than normal, and are found buried in the ground, only their eyestalks visible, and will pop out if walked over.

The''' Peckish Aristocrab''' is a crab-like enemy. Its overall appearance resembles a green and purple bulb of garlic with 4 legs coming from underneath, and two claws on each of its sides, one of them being extremely small, while the other is much larger with transparent pincers. It has two round yellow spots on its cheeks, which look like eyes, while its real eyes rest on stalks that protrude out from the top of its head. It has a large mouth with a serrated lower jaw and long purple tongue. The creature mainly rests in a motionless position, clacking its large pincer, but can detect from afar the presence of leaders and Pikmin, and it will quickly scuttle sideways onto their path when they enter the area, circling them in order to get in their way.

When Pikmin are thrown at it, the creature is capable of maneuvering its massive claw to shield itself from the thrown Pikmin.

It attacks by grasping multiple Pikmin with its claw and dropping them into its gaping mouth. It can also stab the ground with its claw to attack.

[[Rock Pikmin]] are capable of breaking the Peckish Aristocrab's larger claw, since it is very [[crystal]]-like in appearance; it is more durable than a nodule, but hitting the claw with Rock Pikmin causes small pieces to fly off. Eventually, the claw will break, rendering the Aristocrab unable to snatch Pikmin, its only means of defense being blowing bubbles and shaking off attacking Pikmin. Should the Aristrocrab grab onto any Pikmin, throwing Rock Pikmin at its claw should be enough to release its grip on them.

An effective strategy is to have the Aristocrab eat a [[bomb-rock]]. To pull this off, simply have the creature snatch a Pikmin carrying the bomb rock. The Pikmin will break free, and the Aristocrab will eat the explosive instead. When it does, it will be killed instantly, causing its eyes and legs to shrivel away and its claw to explode into crystalline shards, leaving only the body for salvaging.

The Calcified Aristocrab is an onionshell appearing in Pikmin: Scavenge. It acts exactly like its Pikmin 3 counterpart but also spits up small crystal balls. Its claw is its structural flaw, as it can easily be destroyed with Rock Pikmin.

Notes

Louie's recipe

Mix shards of the crystal with natural sea salt using a mortar. The meat is similar to other aristocrabs, but it has more nutrients in it. Perfect for a diet you will never get sick of!

Olimar's notes

The calcified aristocrab's stomach contains acids that help it make the crystals it shoots out of its mouth. The way it turns the acid into crystal is a mystery to me. I'm assuming that the acidity of the outer layer absorbs water which hardens inside its face cheeks. It is also confusing how it manages to support its heavy, crystal claw.
