The '''Pearly Clamclamp''' ({{j|ヤマシンジュ|Yama Shinju|Hill Pearl}}; called the '''Clampshell''' in the European [[Region|version]] of {{npcp1}}) is an [[enemy]] in {{p1}} and {{p4}}. This large {{w|bivalve}} has a pinkish shell, and inside, a small object surrounded by a clear blue membrane. Their inner weak point can be attacked by [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], and when their health is depleted, the object inside flies out and can be collected.


In ''Pikmin'', Pearly Clamclamps can't fully die, instead dropping their pearl or [[Ship part]] when their health reaching zero, while still having the ability to eat and kill Pikmin, while in ''Pikmin 4'', the creature itself will die. Interestingly, Clamclamps in ''Pikmin 4'' never appear with a non-treasure item inside.
In ''Pikmin'', Pearly Clamclamps are either found with a pearl inside, which can be carried to the Onion to produce 50 Pikmin, or a [[ship part]]. In ''Pikmin 4'', they are always found with a [[treasure]] inside. Notably, in ''Pikmin'', this enemy can still eat and kill Pikmin when its health is depleted; it cannot do this in ''Pikmin 4''.
