Notes[]
Dalmo Notes[]
"The mouth on top of its head is somehow chic and ostentatious at the same time. combined with the ways it carries its claws like it's ready to give you a trim. this cutie looks like the charismatic beautician of the creature world. though the way it tosses its food in the air shows rather poor etiquette."
Olimar Notes[]
”This bipedal creature walks upright, so it’s motion is noticeably slow, but the long reach of its pincers are useful for catching prey and tossing it into the wide mouth on top of its head.
When young, this mouth stays closed, and the Grubchucker lives on things like shellfish, nuts, and fruits, eating using the small trophi located behind the feeler below its eyes. As it grows, it’s sincipital mouth opens, and it can start eating larger quantities of food.
It has few natural enemies, primarily due to its height. However, it’s often found in dimmer wetlands or underground to protect the soft top of its shell from the sun’s rays.”
Louie Notes[]
"Pluck off the lips, and serve with lemon and salt as an appetizer. Coat the arms and legs with plenty of miso for a full-course dinner in a shell!"
Battle Strategy[]
Pikmin 4[]
The only way to make it vulnerable is to use Oatchi’s rush to hit the creature in the back of the legs. After that, you can throw your Pikmin at it. If it happens to eat some of your Pikmin, Oatchi’s rush can also set them free.
