The Scorchcake will lie in wait for prey, occasionally sticking its eyestalks out. When Pikmin or a leader draw near, it will rotate its body 90 degrees so it rests on its side. After a short delay, it will turn another 90 degrees, attempting to crush and/or burn prey depending on which side is touched.

==Appearance== | |||
The Scorchcake is a cylindrical rock-covered mollusc-like creature with its underside being covered in flames. It has blue snail-like eyes that are able to retract and hide within its shell. | |||
== Locations == | |||
One Scorchcake is found on sublevel 2 of the [[Crackling Cauldron]], and another is found on sublevel 1 of the [[Cradle of the Beast]]. The Dandori Challenge [[Rockaway Cellars]] has two, and they can spawn in the Dandori Battle [[Hot Sandy Duel]]. | |||

Despite its appearance, the Scorchcake's "crust" is soft enough to be damaged, though the fiery underbelly can only be damaged by [[Red Pikmin]]. If the [[Pikmin 4 player character|player character]] or [[Oatchi]] have equipped the [[Scorch Guard]], this minimizes the risk of harm from the creature's fire. Even with a small squad, the Scorchcake is simple enough to deal with, as long as you ensure no Pikmin are vulnerable in its path. If they are about to be crushed, or are on fire, simply whistle them to your side. If the Scorchcake loses all of its [[health]] while on its side, all Pikmin should be immediately called away, or they will be crushed as the creature topples over to become a corpse.
