They move around in swarms at high speed (fastest of any known [[Mandiblard family|mandiblard]]). They have no form of offense but can move quickly, taking any attacking Pikmin with them. Once they come across any [[nectar]], they will consume it and grow in size. They can also hide under plants, like Pikmin. Most swarms come in groups of seven. | They move around in swarms at high speed (fastest of any known [[Mandiblard family|mandiblard]]).
