The reel notes and the Player's Guide "Field Guide" description for the Armored Cannon Beetle reveal that is filled the biological niche of something else: the Strong-Armed Cannon Beetle. It apparently has a weaker carapace than the one seen in-game and is a continental breed native to the region, unlike the Armored Cannon Beetle, and later, Horned Cannon Beetle. The ''New Play Control! Pikmin'' Prima Guide uses the "Field Guide" description for the Armored Cannon Beetle verbatim except with one change: the one mention of the Strong-Armed Cannon Beetle was changed to the Armored Cannon Beetle. This was likely a [[mistake]], as these guides removed usage of any technical names from the original guide, making it likely the term Strong-Armed was seen as just a technical name.

In Japan, the Armored Cannon Larva is actually the larva of the continental breed. This is not present in the US, likely a similar mistake to the Player's Guide re-releases, mistaking Strong Armed for a technical name.
