{{main|Doodlebug}} | |||
Scientific name: ''Pilli flatularum'' | |||
The Doodlebug is an enemy in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 4''. 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. | |||

The Iridescent Flint Beetle is an enemy in {{p1}}, {{p2}}, and {{p4}}. 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. | |||

In {{p3}}, a subspecies of this one appears, distinguished by its carapace's spotted pattern rather than striped. Otherwise, it behaves identically to the original variant. | |||

The Stony Flint Beetle is an enemy in {{hp}}. It uses its back legs to push rocks and prevent passage through corridors. It is the only flint beetle to possess wings, which it uses to fly away after the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] push the rock into a hole. | The Stony Flint Beetle is an enemy in {{hp}}.

==Trivia== | |||
*Prior to the release of {{p2s}}, the Doodlebug was [[mistake]]nly 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. | |||
