The Calcified Crushblat is an enemy in Pikmin 3. It resembles a bulbous, frog-like creature that stands on tall, stilt-like legs. It is capable of covering itself in a crystal-like shell for defense. Rock Pikmin are needed to shatter its defenses. It attacks by crushing Pikmin by sitting on them. The creature only appears once in story mode, residing in the Tropical Wilds.
Strategy
The Calcified Crushblat sits motionlessly on the ground with its legs retracted, resembling nothing more than a crystaline lump on the ground. However, as the player approaches, it will begin to visibly breath heavily, get up, and walk around. It will not actively attack Pikmin or players, but if they walk underneath it, it will not hesitate to sit on them and crush them.
As the calcified layer of this creature is very hard, one must use either Rock Pikmin or Bomb Rocks. Because Rock Pikmin tend to only break away small portions, it is recommended to use Bomb Rocks whenever possible, as they will blow away a huge portion of the armor and expose the creature within to attack.
Once exposed, simply throw Pikmin on the exposed tender flesh of the Crushblat. Once defeated, its entire crystaline casing will shatter and it will fall dead onto the floor. However, it is advised that only a small portion of the armor is removed, as it will be able to run faster as more armor is taken off of it.
Before the armor is removed, it will do more damage to captains when it sits down and squash all non-Rock Pikmin. After the armour is removed, it does almost half the damage to players, but its body stretches outwards and knocks over Captains and Pikmin.

Trivia
- In reality, calcification usually takes around 3-4 years to take place.
- The Crushblat's appearance when its armor is taken off somewhat resembles the Large-Mouth Wollywog from Pikmin Adventure.
- Although the Crushblat shows many qualities a mini-boss has, it does not play the remixed Pikmin 2 boss theme.
- Interestingly, the Crushblat's head still expands and retracts after it's death.
