The '''Armored Cannon Beetle''' ({{j|フタクチドックリ|Futa Kuchi Dokkuri|Two-Mouth Tokkuri}}) is the adult stage of an [[Armored Cannon Larva]], appearing in {{p1}}, with its larval stage appearing in {{p2}}, {{p3}}, and {{p4}}. It is a large, black, almost shiny beetle with a thick, rounded shell of armor and a blowhole above its head. It attacks by inhaling through this opening and subsequently firing a rolling rock from its mouth that travels in a straight path, which [[Crushing|crushes]] any pikmin in its path, and only stops when it hits a wall or another enemy. To defeat the creature, one must attack its abdomen: attacking other parts of the creature (like its legs) won't damage it.

This enemy is only found in [[The Forest of Hope]], where one is guarding the [[Radiation Canopy]], and [[The Distant Spring]], where one has ingested the [[Bowsprit]]. As a side-note, Olimar can destroy the rocks by [[punch]]ing them; this does not work with the rock-producing [[lithopod]]s in ''Pikmin 2'', however. The boulders can also instantly kill a [[Dwarf Bulborb]]; the bug is left visibly flattened after being rolled over by a rock.
