'''Anode Beetles''' ({{j|エレキムシ|Ereki Mushi|Electric Bug}}) are small black beetles with four yellow spots on their wing casings found in caves throughout {{P2}} and {{P4}}. This creature is blissfully unaware of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], and if found alone, are harmless; but if there is a partner nearby, an electrical barrier can be produced between the two, subjecting any nearby Pikmin to electrocution. As such, they are commonly found in groups of 2 or more.

Anode Beetles are blissfully unaware of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], and if found alone, are harmless; but if there are multiple nearby, an electrical barrier can be produced between two of them, subjecting any nearby Pikmin to electrocution.

[[Swarming]] will not harm it, as it has a protective shell, similar to the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle|Flint Beetles]]. To damage it, one must throw a Pikmin on top of it to flip it over, then proceed to swarm it. [[Purple Pikmin]] can cause them to flip over even if not directly hit.

If you do somehow manage to get you or any of your squad shocked, the Anode Beetles are never found with anything besides more of themselves, so there isn't any danger of stunned Pikmin being eaten or blown up by neighboring creatures like what was seen in ''Pikmin 2'' caves, so just mash B to get up and whistle any stunned troops, you've got a solid 5 seconds to do it.

Another difference from their ''Pikmin 2'' appearance is that the Anode Beetles can be defeated without flipping them over. During their attacking animation their outer shell opens up, and they are vulnerable to damage during that brief period. This means that if you throw Yellow Pikmin at an Anode Beetle, they will eventually defeat it on their own regardless of aim or numbers.
