In Pikmin: Dual Worlds, the Shearant Elite is a matured version of the Shearant, divided into two groups: the male Shearant Soldiers and the female Shearant Guards. The Shearant Soldier is about the size of a female Shearant and can eat up to two Pikmin per bite. It tends to patrol the lower sections of the hive, searching for intruders, and regularly tends to the hive's livestock: Dewsuckers and Ujadani. The Shearant Guard is roughly the size of an Iridescent Flint Beetle and can grab up to three Pikmin in its jaws not to eat them, but to cast them aside before rolling onto them to crush them, sometimes before burrowing into the ground before leaping out again, crushing Pikmin beneath it when it lands. Shearant Guards tend to protect important locations in the hive, such as the nursery in which Shearant Larvae are kept and the walkway to the Shearant Queen's arena, as well as acting as physical barriers in choke points in an attempt to impede intruders' passage through the hive. Both kinds of Shearant Elite assist the queen herself during battle and are durable enough to nullify the impact of Pikmin thrown on top of them, with the soldier having a more developed exoskeleton protecting it and the female simply being bulky enough to negate the possibility of its back being broken by attacks from above. Both kinds can also roll to the side to evade attacks, inadvertently crushing Pikmin in the way; this maneuver can be interrupted by a well-aimed Pikmin throw on top of it, leaving the creature briefly stuck on its back and vulnerable to attacks from above, although this tactic is less effective against Shearant Guards because of their bulkiness. There is one exception to this rule regarding Shearant Guards, that being that in Mission Mode, the elusive Purple Pikmin can be used against it, allowing an easy takedown.

The Shearant Elite, also known as the Shearant Deluxe, is an advanced form of the Shearant, a race of mandiblards in Pikmin: Sinister Incinerator that could either be the ancestors or descendants of mandiblards. The Shearant Elite sports a pair of powerful wings that allow it to fly high above its attackers, but it can fend for itself well on the ground with its powerful jaws. The female has pink wings and the male has purple wings. It can also spray acid from its maw, making Green Pikmin useful for battling them. Yellow Pikmin are also useful for forcing a Shearant Elite out of the air. Shearant Elites usually have plenty of Shearants around for protection, making battles against them more difficult.
