The '''Doodlebug''' ({{j|オナラシ|Onara Shi|Farter}}) is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' an ''[[Pikmin 4]]''.

It has the same morphology of the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]], except it is coated with dirt and has small flies hovering around it, giving it a more repugnant appearance. They, like [[Iridescent Glint Beetle]]s, drop [[spray]] – [[ultra-bitter spray]]; in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], they sometimes drop [[treasure]]. They are only found inside [[cave]]s. When Doodlebugs move, they release flatulence and leave noxious clouds of [[Poison|poisonous gas]] wherever they were, thus subjecting nearby Pikmin to choking. Therefore, [[White Pikmin]] are ideal for killing these creatures. If they are killed while [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]], they do not release any [[nectar]] or [[spray]]s, but do drop any treasures they were holding. | ||
Sublevel 1 of the [[Frontier Cavern]] holds the largest number of Doodlebugs together: three. The Doodlebug at the [[Cryptic Cavern]] will just respawn elsewhere if it burrows before its [[The Key|Key]] is removed. | Sublevel 1 of the [[Frontier Cavern]] holds the largest number of Doodlebugs together: three.

* | *Prior to the release of [[Pikmin 2 (Nintendo Switch)]], the Doodlebug was [[mistake|mistakenly]] referred to as belonging to the "[[Flint bug family]]" in the English version, even though they were claimed to share the same genus as the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]]. In the Japanese [[region|version]] of {{p2}}, the Iridescent Flint Beetle and the Doodlebug had always shared the same family. | ||
