How to Kill

Artwork of a Cloaking Burrow-nit.

Pikmin

Swarming it is a suitable method, usually with 60-100 pikmin if you feel uneasy, as the hard shell protects it from all pikmin attacks, leaving only the face vunerable, but usually, the pikmin will revert from the shell to the face.

Captains

Try using both captains and repeatedly keep punching it's face, but try to keep both away from the middle where they are at rick of damage. Most often, when 1/6 of it's health is gone during it's attack phase, instead of the harpoon being released, it will attempt to defend itself (shaking). After defending, it will reattempt the attack phase. Repeat.
