In Pikmin 2, they are found in similar locations, but only drop three things: a 1 pellet, 2 doses of nectar, and then a dose of [[Ultra-spicy spray|ultra-spicy spray]]. Since the discovery of [[Purple Pikmin]], it is easier to fight them due to the shockwaves that the Purple Pikmin produce. In certain [[Challenge Mode]] levels, these beasts drop treasures.

=== Olimar's Notes ===
Flint Beetles are nocturnal, choosing to hide in the grass by day and stay active at night. These creatures keep undigested food pellets in their stomachs to sustain them through winter, but given the right stimulus they will spit them out. Recent research has revealed that these pellets are enveloped in a membrane that seals and preserves them in a sterile, airtight environment. If kept at room temperature, it seems that this pellet membrane will keep its contents fresh for up to six months. The membrane may be made from the same substance that gives the exoskeleton of the flint beetle it's beautiful sheen.
 
===Louie's Notes===
An essential flavor-accentuating ingredient in gumbo and jambalaya.  Also delicious in soups, broths, and marinades.
