The '''Horned Cannon Beetle''' ({{j|フタクチカブト|Futa Kuchi Kabuto|Two-Mouthed Beetle}}) is a [[boss]] in ''[[Pikmin 4]]''. It appears very similar to the [[Armored Cannon Beetle]], but with a less metallic and more segmented shell, along with longer mandibles. The blowhole is also larger and higher up on the shell, pointing at an angle instead of being front facing. It's overall more detailed, but as these details are shared with the [[Arctic Cannon Beetle]], these differences are likely due to graphical improvements. | The '''Horned Cannon Beetle''' ({{j|フタクチカブト|Futa Kuchi Kabuto|Two-Mouthed Beetle}}) is a [[boss]] in ''[[Pikmin 4]]''.

The Horned Cannon Beetle is a deceptively simple and easy fight. Once the player begins to engage it, wait for the Beetle to inhale through its top blow hole. Once it does, you have a rather generous amount of time to throw a single Pikmin into it to clog it. Once stops, the beetle's rear shell opens up, exposing its abdomen for attack. Rush the back of the creature with [[Oatchi]] and a large squad of Pikmin, or if he is not available simply throw them on. Once it shuts its shell, whistle your Pikmin back and repeat the process until the boss is defeated. Using a squad that has [[Rock Pikmin]] and/or [[Purple Pikmin]] is recommended. | The Horned Cannon Beetle is a deceptively simple and easy fight.

The Horned Cannon Beetle can breed with adult Armored Cannon Beetles, but only about half of the eggs will actually hatch. This hybrid species has the potential to seriously pollute the gene pool. Furthermore, it exhibits aggressive territorial behavior, sometimes launching boulders at young Armored Cannon Beetles, which has driven the latter species to the verge of extinction.|block=y}} | The Horned Cannon Beetle can breed with adult Armored Cannon Beetles, but only about half of the eggs will actually hatch.
