Anode Beetle: Difference between revisions

'''Anode Beetles''' (エレキ ムシ, ''Ereki Mushi'') are small black beetles with four yellow spots on their wing casings. They are named 'anode' due to the fact that they produce electrical currents if another one is nearby. This creature is blissfully unaware of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], and if found alone, they are harmless; but if there is a partner nearby, they can produce an electrical barrier between them, making any nearby Pikmin subject to electrocution. As such, they are commonly found in groups of 2 or more. [[Group move|Swarming]] will not harm it, as it has a protective shell, similar to the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle|Flint Beetles]]. To harm it, one must throw a Pikmin on top of it to flip it over, then proceed to swarm it. Purple Pikmin can cause them to flip over even if not directly hit.
