'''Antenna Beetles''' ({{j|カマドフマ|Kamadofuma|{{w|Rhaphidophoridae|Cave Cricket}}}}) are [[enemy|enemies]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' which distract [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. Antenna Beetles use their wings to produce sounds of a high pitch, which interferes with the [[Treasure Gauge]] and attracts nearby Pikmin, similar to the [[whistle]]. This noise overrides any commands issued by a [[leader]], so the Antenna Beetle can take command of any Pikmin that are nearby, which can indirectly harm Pikmin by leading them into a [[hazard]]. The only way to regain control of the Pikmin is to kill the enemy or force it to leap away again. | |||
These enemies periodically jump high in the air and return to the ground, stumbling as they land. They can be prompted to jump again by attacking them or approaching them often. They can be attacked by [[swarm]]ing as they land or [[throw]]ing Pikmin on top of them. If a Pikmin lands on one, it will roll over, not much different from an [[Anode Beetle]]. [[Purple Pikmin]] may also stun them if thrown on top, preventing them from getting up and jumping away. | |||
Antenna Beetles are relatively rare, found in only a few [[cave]]s. The Treasure Gauge fluttering about and flashing a pinkish color is an indication that an Antenna Beetle is on the current sublevel. | |||
Pikmin under | Pikmin under one's control are immune to most dangers, as they follow the same rules as wild Bulbmin. This means that they are ignored by enemies and only killed by crushing and hazards, though explosions will knock them back. The real danger is when an Antenna Beetle hops away and the Pikmin become idle. | ||
