The '''Anode Dweevil''' is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is a yellow dweevil that will emit an electrical discharge when agitated by attacks, and will immediately electrocute and kill Pikmin without a chance to save them, thus making it one of the most dangerous Dweevils. It also picks up dead foes and treasures, which is common to all Dweevils. This suitably makes [[Yellow Pikmin]] the best choice in battle. Also, since [[Purple Pikmin]] can stun any small Dweevil, they will also work well.

Attack it with yellows. If not, it's probably better to kill it with captains. Purples also work, as they have a hundred percent chance of stunning any small Dweevil.

The Anode Dweevil is an enemy in Pikmin 2. It is a yellow dweevil that will emit an electrical discharge when agitated by attacks that will immediately electrocute and kill the Pikmin without a chance to save them, thus making it one of the most dangerous Dweevils. It also picks up dead foes and treasures, which is common to all Dweevils. This suitably makes Yellow Pikmin the best choice in battle. Also, since Purple Pikmin can stun any small Dweevil, they will also work well.

Notes

Olimar's notes

Members of the dweevil family are known for carrying objects of astounding size on their backs and mimicking them. The anode dweevil is one species in this family. They seem to have no particular preference for which objects they carry on their backs, as they will carry anything they can lift. They boast an internal organ that generates electrical charges, which the anode dweevil releases when it senses danger.

Louie's notes

Raw anode dweevil makes for an unforgettable sushi treat, but if it is not prepared by an expert hand with exacting precision, consumption could result in a jolting electrical explosion of apocalyptic proportion.

Strategy

Pikmin

Attack it with yellows. If not, it's probably better to kill it with captains. Purples also work as they have a hundred percent chance of stunning any small Dweevil.

Captains

Run up to it and attack it until it starts glowing. If the Dream Material has already been acquired, keep attacking. If not, run away before it attacks, then run back when the electricity stops and repeat the assault.

Trivia

  • On the main menu's "Spring" theme, one can see some Anode Dweevils scurry along the tree as the camera moves to the ground. These Dweevils however, have yellow feelers, as opposed to the regular in-game Dweevils' red feelers.
