The '''Armored Mawdad''' is a boss creature from [[Pikmin 3]] | The '''Armored Mawdad''' is a [[boss]] creature from [[Pikmin 3]]. It resembles a millipede or centipede, with a multitude of small gecko-like legs, a large head, yellow eyes, a greenish underbelly, a gaping mouth, and large curved mandibles. Most of its body is covered in segments of translucent shells that act as the creature's protection. Players must toss the newly discovered [[Rock Pikmin]] at its crystalline carapace in order to reveal its weak skin. Once its skin is shown, the player must then attack and swarm the vicious beast. This creature is interesting for giving off an arthropod like appearance despite presumably being a vertebrate with it's reptile-like scales, feet and its eyes and mouth. | ||
