The Joustmite (カブリムシ) is a type of enemy in Pikmin 3 that acts and looks much like the Cloaking Burrow-nit, but uses its shell to shield its face rather than its rear (its weakpoint). Just like the Burrow-nit, it hides partially buried in the ground, waiting for unsuspecting prey. Once a player enters the vicinity of the Joustmite, it pops out from under the ground and proceeds to attack the player's Pikmin by attempting to use its long, needle-like proboscis to spear them. It can shake Pikmin off by bucking, shaking its loose carapace. Unlike the Cloaking Burrow-nit, it can catch multiple Pikmin at once and kill them much faster. Rock Pikmin are impervious to its attacks, making them highly effective to combat the creature
