Crystalline Crushblat

The Crystaline Crushblat is an enemy found in. It is a green, cave-dwelling relative to the Calcified Crushblat.

Behavior
The Crystalline Crushblat will mostly stand in an idle position, only moving when it senses Pikmin nearby. It will then slowly walk over and attempt to crush them with its crystal shell. If its shell is broken, it will run to the limits of its territory, where it can be easily killed.

Locations

 * Sparkling Labyrinth:
 * Crystal Tunnels
 * Echo Cavern
 * Springpetal Cave
 * The Burning Sky


 * Snowfall Field:
 * Freezing Wasteland

Strategy
Because of its slow motion with its exoskeleton on, the Crystalline Crushblat is a rather easy foe to kill. It can be defeated by breaking its outer shell with Rock Pikmin or a bomb rock, and then using any Pikmin type to damage its exposed body. The only danger is approaching right next to it with its shell on, as this allows it to crush you and your Pikmin. It does even this slowly, however.
