The '''Hermit Crawmad''' ({{j|シャコモドキ|Shako Modoki|Pseudo Mantis Shrimp}}) is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', and the first known member of the [[crawmad family]]. They are similar to stout lobster- or shrimp-like crustaceans whose claws resemble those of {{w|Squilla mantis|squillas}}, but are in fact related to {{w|hermit crab}}s. These enemies live their lives in holes, and pop out when prey approach. With a quick lunge, they can catch their target, reel back, and feed on it in its burrow.

This is the only enemy in the series to vary in size, which is [[Randomness|random]] every time they are generated on a map. They only have different sizes in ''Pikmin 2'', and their size does not change the amount of [[Poko]]s or Pikmin seeds they are worth. Their nest also varies in size to accommodate the creature's.
This is one of two enemies in the series (the other being the [[Swarming Sheargrub]]) that can change size. Each Hermit Crawmad's size is [[Randomness|randomly]] determined every time they are generated on a map. They only have different sizes in ''Pikmin 2'', and their size does not change the amount of [[Poko]]s they are worth, how much health they have, or the number of Pikmin seeds they produce. Their nests also vary in size to accommodate the creatures.

[[File:P2 Hermit Crawmad Exposed.png|thumb|150px|left|A Hermit Crawmad scuttling back to its hole in ''Pikmin 2''.]]
The Hermit Crawmad is a semi-passive creature. It sits inside its hole, and is usually found around watery areas, although it can survive on dry land as well. It will peek out of its hole when the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[leader]]s approach it and it will attack if one gets too near its dwelling. It attacks by charging out of its hole and grabbing a Pikmin, then backpedaling to its nest, where the Pikmin is eaten. If it misses, it will turn back around and return to its dwelling, slower than usual. It can climb walls if it is necessary for it to get back to its nest. While sitting on the nest and peeking out, if it can no longer see prey nearby, it'll retreat back inside. In ''Pikmin 2'', its nest will disintegrate if it is killed, but will always remain in the sequel.

{{game help|p2|For the "butterfly effect" one, confirm it, elaborate, and add to the glitches article.}}
*If the player [[Ultra-bitter spray|petrifies]] a Hermit Crawmad while it is performing its lunge out of water, and then pushes the creature into the water, it will generate the splash effect even though it's not moving. If the enemy dies, the effect will stay there forever.{{cite youtube|tmr9s1tGKdg|of a petrified Hermit Crawmad leaving a water splash effect behind}}
*Very rarely, if one petrify a Hermit Crawmad and kill it in the water in its dwelling, it will produce a strange butterfly shaped "wave" effect that will last for the remainder of the time a player is there (only observed on sublevel 6 of the [[Hole of Heroes]]).
*While petrified and on the water, a Crawmad can be damaged simply by having Pikmin walk into it. The reason for this is not known.

==Naming==
==Naming==
The "Hermit" part of the enemy's name refers to the real world {{w|hermit crab}}, given how both creatures have a vulnerable abdomen that they wish to keep hidden most of the time. "Crawmad" is a play on the word "{{w|Crayfish|crawdad}}". Its Japanese name is {{j|シャコモドキ|Shako Modoki}}, which loosely translates to "Pseudo Mantis Shrimp" or "Fake Mantis Shrimp", with the {{w|mantis shrimp}} being a real world creature that highly resembles the ''Pikmin'' enemy.

Its scientific name is ''camabarus rustica''. ''Camabarus'' is a play on the real world genus for crawfish &ndash; ''cambarus'' &ndash; and ''rustica'' is related to the Latin ''rusticus'', which means rural. Internally, this enemy is called <code>jigumo</code> in ''Pikmin 2'', which is the Japanese name of the {{w|atypus karschi|atypus karschi}}, a type of spider. In ''Pikmin 3'', the internal name was changed to simply <code>shako</code>, which is part of the Japanese name ({{j|シャコ|Shako}}).

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The nests of Hermit Crawmads are the only enemy-related object not to appear in the game's [[Unused content in Pikmin 2|early configuration files]], making it likely that they were originally going to appear without the nest.
*The nests of Hermit Crawmads are the only enemy-related object not to appear in the game's [[Unused content in Pikmin 2|early configuration files]], making it likely that they were originally going to appear without the nest or reuse the [[Breadbug]]'s nest.
*While the Piklopedia entry states that the Hermit Crawmad's pincers evolved into a fin shape, in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' they were changed to actual pincers, possibly to match the [[Bug-Eyed Crawmad]]'s design.
*While the Piklopedia entry states that the Hermit Crawmad's pincers evolved into a fin shape, in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' they were changed to actual pincers, possibly to match the [[Bug-Eyed Crawmad]]'s design. Olimar’s notes in ''[[Pikmin 3 Deluxe]]'' were updated slightly to reflect this change, making the Hermit Crawmad one of the only returning creatures from ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' to have a changed entry.
*Due to a [[Glitches in Pikmin 2|glitch]], the Hermit Crawmad may possibly [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)#Enemies that can die|die in the Piklopedia]].
*In ''Pikmin 2'', if a non-Blue Pikmin is carried by a Hermit Crawmad to water, it will escape the creature's grasp and start drowning instead. If the player does nothing, the enemy will repeatedly attempt to eat the Pikmin, which will in turn repeatedly escape and start the drowning process from scratch.{{cite web|https://clips.twitch.tv/CleanFuriousJalapenoPastaThat-Q0HhYySx9TVwwVTG|Twitch clip|Twitch}}
*The Hermit Crawmad and the [[Bulborb]] are the only enemies in ''Pikmin 2'' to have a clay figure modelled after them.
