The '''Armored Cannon Beetle''' is the mature specimen of an [[Armored Cannon Beetle Larva]], strangely, it was seen only in Pikmin 1, while it was discontinued in Pikmin 2, however the larvae species were not seen in Pikmin 1, and actually seen in Pikmin 2. It is a large black and metallic beetle with a rounded thick shell of armor, a blowhole above its head, and a mouth. It attacks by inhaling through the blowhole and subsequently spitting out rolling rocks from its mouth, which will crush any Pikmin in the way. The only way to defeat it is to throw a Pikmin into the blowhole (the Pikmin won't be harmed), which will make the Beetle unable to breathe.

After a few seconds of agony, the Beetle will unclog its blowhole, re-cover its backside, and continue its attack.

Armored Cannon Beetle
Granitus chukkulinae __________(?)
The Armored Cannon Beetle is the mature specimen of an Armored Cannon Beetle Larva, strangely, it was seen only in Pikmin 1, while it was discontinued in Pikmin 2, however the larvae species were not seen in Pikmin 1, and actually seen in Pikmin 2. It is a large black and metallic beetle with a rounded thick shell of armor, a blowhole above its head, and a mouth. It attacks by inhaling through the blowhole and subsequently spitting out rolling rocks from its mouth, which will crush any Pikmin in the way. The only way to defeat it is to throw a Pikmin into the blowhole (the Pikmin won't be harmed), which will make the Beetle unable to breathe. It will then expose its red, steaming backside allowing it to breathe (maybe), which is the only vulnerable part of its body to throw Pikmin at. After a few seconds of agony, the Beetle will unclog its blowhole, re-cover its backside, and continue its attack. It is one of the few enemies in the game that had a larval form seen.
This creature is only found in The Forest of Hope, and The Distant Spring. Both of them yield ship parts.
