Bumbling Snitchbug
Scarpanica doofenia
The Bumbling Snitchbug is an enemy in the Pikmin 2 game. It resembles the Swooping Snitchbug a lot in appearance and behavior, such as the eyes and noise it makes, and though slightly possessing more body mass. It acts like the Swooping Snitchbug, but instead of the Pikmin, it picks up the leaders/you Captain Olimar, Louie and The President. Notice however, unlike its cousin, it flies up higher, so high, you either need to shake your captain off by repeatedly tapping or tilting sticks and buttons, or use your Yellow Pikmin to get the Snitchbug down. It obviously doesn't plant the leaders in the ground, but instead hurts them. The method of defeat is the same as that of the Swooping Snitchbug; throw Pikmin at it until it drops, then swarm it. Purples also work well in bringing it down. A glitch may occur if the Snitchbug throws you and you kept using the Control Stick and A-button to get off of the bug.
