The Doodlebug is an enemy in Pikmin 2. It is the same in general appearance to the Iridescent Flint Beetle, except it is coated with dirt and has small flies hovering around it, giving it a more repugnant look. However, it is actually in the Flint Bug family, not the Flint Beetle family.
Locations
Doodlebugs only appear in the later caves of the game. Sublevel one in Frontier Cavern contains three doodlebugs, thus making it a good sublevel to stock up on sprays, and in Challenge Mode, they can even drop treasure.
Drops
The first direct hit with a Pikmin causes it to drop 3 drops of Nectar, then the next 2 drop 1 Ultra Bitter Drop each.
Tutorial
Captains cannot harm this creature, it being required to have pikmin with you to flip it over. However, it is possible to defeat a Doodlebug. To do this it must be sprayed with ultra bitter spray, and it can be attacked and defeated. It can kill Pikmin by flatuating on them. The contents it eats make the gas a level XXII biohazard.
Pikmin 2
It is best to use White Pikmin to gain its items, even though using a Purple Pikmin's shockwaves are super effective. It emits poisonous gas; therefore, White Pikmin are best to use, even though it is hard to land it straight in the middle of their shell.
Notes
Olimar's NotesEdit
"While life-forms that excrete foul musks to warn of danger are not rare, the doodlebug is the only species known to release flatulence when active above ground. Interestingly enough, since it is merely releasing the gas created by decay of the contents of the creature's intestines, it does not have a special musk-producing organ. This means the creature is in fact merely flatulating. Spectral analysis of the rank gas indicates it contains not only methane, but hydrogen sulfide as well, making the flatulence a Grade XIII biohazard."
Louie's NotesEdit
"Looking for a flavor that will surprise and delight your guests? This beast's aroma may surprise your guests, but it won't be delightful!"
