The Iridescent Flint Beetle is an enemy in {{p1}}, {{p2}}, and {{p3}}. It is harmless and has a tough carapace to defend itself with, making it invulnerable to attacks. It dwells underground in fixed spots, but when approached, it emerges and scuttles around in a panic. Occasionally, it stops and provides an opportunity for the player to throw a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] onto its back, making it flip and release a reward. | The Iridescent Flint Beetle is an enemy in {{p1}}, {{p2}}, and {{p3}}.

The Doodlebug is an enemy in ''Pikmin 2''. Similar to the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]], this bug hides in a spot underground, and when approached, it unburrows and quickly scatters around. Periodically, it stops in place to rest, providing the player with the opportunity to hit it to obtain a reward, normally a [[Spray#Spray drop|spray drop]]. After resting, when it darts off to a new location, it leaves a cloud of poisonous gas behind, making [[White Pikmin]] the ideal choice for combat. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*Prior to the release of [[Pikmin 2 (Nintendo Switch)]], the Doodlebug was [[mistake|mistakenly]] referred to as belonging to the "[[Flint bug family]]" in the English version, even though they were claimed to share the same genus as the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]]. In the Japanese [[region|version]] of {{p2}}, the Iridescent Flint Beetle and the Doodlebug had always shared the same family. | |||
