The Antenna Beetle is an enemy in ''Pikmin 2''. When it is present in the sublevel, it scrambles the [[Treasure Gauge]] on the [[HUD]]. This enemy can whistle around itself, and attract the player's Pikmin against their will. After a while, it'll jump into the air and land nearby shortly after. Its defeat ensures the normal functioning of the Treasure Gauge, as well as the release of any entranced Pikmin. | The Antenna Beetle is an enemy in ''Pikmin 2''.
