'''Shearwigs''' are enemies in both ''[[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin]]'' games. The females of this species are never seen, as, according to [[Olimar's notes]], they spend nearly their entire life underground, somewhat similar to cicadas. They also do not possess the male's wings. The males have a dark green shell, sporting simple bug-like wings and large, sickle-shaped mandibles. They are slightly more aggressive than [[Male Sheargrub]]s, and take leave of the ground to hover up high after having lost at least half of their health to allow it to steadily return. While up in the air, these creatures are still within the reach of a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] throw, of which just one accurate button-press is enough to kill one. | '''Shearwigs''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(</span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;line-height:19px;">トビンコ) </span>are enemies in both ''[[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin]]'' games.

When flying, Shearwigs are given the chance to [[HP Regeneration|regenerate health]]. In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', Shearwigs have enormous health regeneration. ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' gives them slow health regeneration, but their health regeneration is much larger when in flight. | When flying, Shearwigs are given the chance to [[HP Regeneration|regenerate health]].
