The '''Bumbling Snitchbug''' ({{j|トテツチホカシ|Tote Tsuchi Hokashi|Picking Up and Dumping on the Ground Creature}}) is a creature found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. Bumbling Snitchbugs closely resemble [[Swooping Snitchbug]]s in appearance, though they possess more body mass, make a different buzzing sound, and do not have as distinct a head. The two types also behave similarly towards small grounded creatures, but instead of targeting [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] specifically, these lumbering bug prefers to attack [[leader]]s, snatching them and tossing them to the ground. Leaders that the enemy has managed to take hold of will [[dismiss]] their army, but are able to struggle to free themselves if {{button|gc|stick|wii|stick}} is [[Controls#Button-mashing|twirled]]. Alternately, one could have the second leader throw [[Yellow Pikmin]] to combat a kidnapping Snitchbug.

Weighing these beasts down will cause them to crash into the ground, where they are easily overwhelmed by the player's Pikmin forces. When carrying a leader, Bumbling Snitchbugs fly higher than usual. These creatures are only harmful in areas with many enemies, where one might catch the player off guard, allowing for the disbanded Pikmin to be eaten. This, however, can easily be prevented by switching to the other leader and calling the Pikmin to resume battle. If a Snitchbug manages to capture both leaders, then the player is in a tough spot, and must break free quickly, or have idle Pikmin suffer.

*The Bumbling Snitchbug's design may possibly a reference to stereotypical Japanese cat burglars.{{source needed}} The hands look like gloves and the abdomen resembles the typical green bag the burglars always carry around. They share this inspiration with [[wikirby:Tac|Tac]] from ''Kirby Super Star''.

*Along with Swooping Snitchbugs, idle Bumbling Snitchbugs rub their hands together, similar to flies.
