The '''Volatile Dweevil''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(</span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;line-height:19px;">サクレショイグモ) </span>is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. At first glance, it appears to be [[Bomb Rock]] with legs, but are actually [[Dweevil]]s that have picked up bomb-rocks, much like how other members of the Dweevil family pick up treasures and corpses; unlike other members of that family, Volatile Dweevils are known ''only'' to carry bomb-rocks, and are never seen without one.

A Volatile Dweevil's Bomb Rock will start the count-down fuse as soon as the creature is startled, it will chase [[captain]]s and [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] until the bomb explodes, killing itself, and anything else caught in the blast. With that in mind, the best way to deal with a Volatile Dweevil simply to run away from it until it blows up. They cannot be directly attacked unless [[Ultra-bitter Spray|petrified]], which also freezes the bomb-rock in mid-detonation, making it useful in an emergency but often impractical because it wastes a [[spray]] on an enemy which will drop no corpse.

In terms of gameplay, Volatile Dweevils are more-so hazards than enemies. They can unexpectedly drop from the ceiling and are often found around treasures, making them extremely dangerous to Pikmin attempting to retrieve the treasure.
