'''Decorated Cannon Beetles''' are enemies in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. They have an appearance similar to [[Armored Cannon Beetle Larva]]e, but are red instead of green, and have orange eyes. Also, this particular species is never found buried in the ground like Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae. They, too, spit out stones, but their rocks home in on the currently active [[Leader|captain]] due to the magnetic field which envelops the boulders. However, the stones have odd characteristics. First of all, when they are found in [[cave]]s which are made of metal (which is rusty, indicating it contains iron), the spacesuits are the only thing the boulders home in on. The rocks are also surprisingly frail. If slowed by water, a rock can be destroyed by a [[Purple pikmin]].

==Glitches==
Activate the Piklopedia. Select the archive for this creature. [[Throw]] [[Pikpik carrot]]s at the Beetle, making sure that they land in front and to the side of it. The Beetle will then spit out a rock, which will roll around to hit the Beetle if done correctly. When the rock crashes on the Beetle, the Beetle doesn't die, no matter how many times this is performed.
In the end of day sequence at the [[Valley of Repose]], a Decorated Cannon Beetle often appears. Sometimes it will shoot rocks (which occasionally strike and injure/kill other enemies), inhale, and walk much faster than normal.
Go to any area that has a Decorated Cannon Beetle. Kill it, and pause as it makes it first dying sound. When you pause, the Beetle will make strange noises that get lower and lower. The same will happen with a Armored Cannon Beetle Larva.

==Trivia==
*On the [[Piklopedia]], this enemy cannot be destroyed with its own projectile. If [[pikpik carrot]]s are thrown such that the Beetle's rock chases after them, curves, and hits its launcher, nothing will happen.

*If the game is paused just as the creature makes its first dying sound, some strange noises will be heard, that get lower and lower, lasting for more than 10 seconds. The same will happen with an Armored Cannon Beetle Larva.
