Anode Beetle
Anode Beetles are small black beetles with four yellow spots on their wing casings. They are named 'anode' due to the fact that they produce electrical currents if another one is nearby. This creature is blissfully unaware of Pikmin, but if they approach the Beetles or the electrical current, they may be subject to electrocution, so the best way to defeat them is either using Yellow Pikmin and/or Purple Pikmin and then swarming. Purple Pikmin, thanks to their homing ability and shock waves, can flip these from a distance as well, making them effective when in a hurry. If an Ultra-Bitter Spray is used, it will make it vulnerable to swarming.
Notes
Olimar's notes
“This specimen is representative of an insect hybrid that uses electricity in addition to glycogen for its energy. Although difficult to confirm due to their microscopic size, tiny hairs on the creature's legs cause the friction that generates the electrical charge. The electrical charge is processed by the creature's internal machina battery structure, and then stored as a deus electrifical field. As this field reaches critical levels, surplus electricity is emitted, resulting in a low voltage current that is transmitted between specimens. It can shock other creatures in the immediate vicinity. Considering this process, it can be surmised that the largest impetus to pack behavior is not so much for synergic effect of producing as a pack as it is to take advantage of this most effective means of group preservation.”
Louie's notes
“Drain the electrical charge before boiling. Although it is possible to eat an anode beetle while it is charged, doing so may result in an unpleasant tingling sensation.”
