In Pikmin: Dual Worlds, the Roaring Siren Beetle is an especially small member of the lithopod family that attacks by sucking in air and releasing it as an incredibly loud explosion, creating a loud roaring sound that causes panic in the process. Pikmin in front of the beast will begin to panic when it attacks, and if they're close enough will be engulfed in the explosion. Unlike its relative, the Armored Cannon Beetle, it retains its soft shell throughout its entire life, making it so that it can be attacked at any time and from any direction. Of course, Pikmin can still be thrown in its blowhole, resulting in its attack being negated and its shell opening up, allowing for damage to be done quicker.
