The '''Doodlebug''' is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. 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. However, it is actually in the Flint ''Bug'' family, not the Flint Beetle family. They, like [[Iridescent Glint Beetle]]s, drop [[spray]] - [[Ultra-bitter spray|ultra-bitter spray]]; in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], they sometimes drop [[Treasure Hoard|treasure]]. They are never seen above ground, and [[HP regeneration|regenerate]] when damaged. When Doodlebugs move, they release flatulence and leave noxious clouds of poisonous gas wherever they were, thus subjecting nearby Pikmin to [[hazard]]ous [[Hazard#Poison gas|poison]]. Therefore, [[White Pikmin]] are ideal for killing these creatures.

Three of these can be found on Sublevel 1 of the [[Frontier Cavern]].
==Locations==
Doodlebugs only appear in the later caves of the game. Sublevel one in [[Frontier cavern|Frontier Cavern]] contains three doodlebugs, thus making it a good sublevel to stock up on sprays, and in [[Challenge mode|Challenge Mode]], they can even drop treasure.
==Drops==
The first direct hit with a [[Pikmin]] causes it to drop 3 drops of [[Nectar]], then the next 2 drop 1 [[Ultra Bitter Spray|Ultra Bitter Drop]] each.
 
==Tutorial==
Captains cannot harm this creature, it being required to have pikmin with you to flip it over. However, it is possible to defeat a Doodlebug. To do this it must be sprayed with ultra bitter spray, and it can be attacked and defeated.
 
===Pikmin===
It is best to use [[White Pikmin]] to gain its items, even though using a [[Purple Pikmin]]'s shockwaves are super effective. It emits poisonous gas; therefore, [[White Pikmin]] are best to use, even though it is hard to land it straight in the middle of their shell.
 
==Notes==
