=== ''Pikmin 2'' === | |||
Since this enemy can kill any type of Pikmin that is not immune to electricity, it is advised to use Yellows. Simply throw a Yellow Pikmin onto it, and proceed to swarm it with any Pikmin you have. A group of 20 or more Yellows can kill it in one cycle. Alternatively, you can use other Pikmin types, but with care, as electrocution is highly possible. As an upside, Purple Pikmin can flip the beetles even if not directly thrown on top of them. Bulbmin are also useful in caves such as the [[Submerged Castle]]. | Since this enemy can kill any type of Pikmin that is not immune to electricity, it is advised to use Yellows.

Note that, just like Flint Beetles, the Anode Beetle is not harmed by the rocks of [[Lithopod]]s. It is not harmed by [[bomb-rock]]s, [[Gatling Groink]]s, or the [[Waterwraith]], either. | Note that, just like Flint Beetles, the Anode Beetle is not harmed by the rocks of [[Lithopod]]s.

=== ''Pikmin 4'' === | |||
Anode Beetle's rarity, the reduced lethality of electricity since {{P2}}, ''and'' the likelihood of obtaining the Anti-Electrifier [[Gear]] by the point the enemies are even encountered might as well make them completely harmless, as they're never encountered alongside anything other than more of themselves. Though if you manage to get your entire squad stunned, just mash B to get up and whistle all over your screen until you see the Pikmin in-party / on-field counter on the bottom left filled out. | |||
