'''Armored Cannon Larvae''' ({{j|フタクチドックリ|Futa Kuchi Dokkuri|Two-Mouth {{w|Sake set#Server|Tokkuri}}}}; '''Armored Cannon Beetle Larva''' in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''; '''Armoured Cannon Larva''' in the European [[region|version]] of ''[[Pikmin 3]]'') are enemies in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3''. They resemble large larvae with some of the similar [[Armored Cannon Beetle]] eyes and mouth. They act the same as the Armored Cannon Beetle, but turn and spit at a faster rate and have much less [[HP|health]]. Their boulders roll in a straight line in ''Pikmin 2'', but follow the terrain's curvature in ''Pikmin 3''. They come in two types: one that walks around and one that burrows out of the ground; only the burrowing form is found in ''Pikmin 3''. A related species called [[Decorated Cannon Beetle]]s exists in larval form, in ''Pikmin 2'', but the adults are not seen in any game so far. | '''Armored Cannon Larvae''' ({{j|フタクチドックリ|Futa Kuchi Dokkuri|Two-Mouth {{w|Sake set#Server|Tokkuri}}}}; '''Armored Cannon Beetle Larva''' in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''; '''Armoured Cannon Larva''' in the European [[region|version]] of ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' and Armoured Cannon Beetle Larva in the European [[region|version]] of ''[[Pikmin 3 Deluxe]]) are enemies in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3''.

Like the adult Cannon Beetles, they have a blowhole on the top of their head, but it is either non-functional or not as powerful, so [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] cannot become stuck in it like with the fully grown beetles. Because Cannon Beetle Larvae lack the thick exoskeletal armor characteristic of the adult beetles, these enemies are vulnerable all over their body, but can buck the Pikmin off when attacked. They can be manipulated into destroying other creatures by making them spit boulders at a [[leader]] when they are beside an enemy. Moving out of the way before the rock hits them, the rock will hit the enemy that was behind. | Like the adult Cannon Beetles, they have a blowhole on the top of their head, but it is either non-functional or not as powerful, so [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] cannot become stuck in it like with the fully grown beetles.
