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 rocks, but their rocks home in on the currently active [[captain]] due to the magnetic field which envelops the boulders(which can be used to your advantage however). 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 punch or a [[Purple Pikmin]]. Even though it is called a Beetle, it is actually a larva. | ||
Similar to the red and green koopa shells from the Mario Kart series,the decorated cannon beetles (which are red) are homing,while the Armored Cannon Beetle Larva (which are green) are not. | Similar to the red and green koopa shells from the Mario Kart series,the decorated cannon beetles (which are red) are homing,while the Armored Cannon Beetle Larva (which are green) are not. | ||

Go to any area that has a Decorated Cannon Beetle. Defeat it, and pause as it makes it first dying sound. When the player pauses, the Beetle makes strange noises that get lower and lower. The same happens with an Armored Cannon Beetle Larva. | Go to any area that has a Decorated Cannon Beetle. Defeat it, and pause as it makes it first dying sound.

==Trivia== | |||
*Their scientific name, '''''Granitus decorum''''', means 'Beautiful Granite'. | |||
*The Decorated Cannon Beetle's boulders act much like the red shells from the ''Mario Kart ''series, and they both share the same red coloration. Both the shell and the boulder follow a player. This same similarity applies to the Armored Cannon Beetle Larva and green shells. | |||
*They make pig-like noises. | |||
