A Snitchbug is an insectoid creature from Pikmin and Pikmin 2. They come in two types.
Varieties
Snitchbugs come in two varieties, The Swooping Snitchbug and The Bumbling Snitchbug.
The Swooping Snitchbug
Swooping Snitchbugs are legless
insects with gangly arms and antennas that double as wings for flight. They are not that destructive, nor are they that difficult, but they can be and usually are annyoing. The goal of a Swooping Snitchbug is to find pikmin, bring them in the air, and replant them back into their original leaf form. To defeat a Swooping Snitchbug, you must throw pikmin on the location of his shadow
, once enough are on the Snitchbug, he will fall out of the sky. You must next then use the c-stick to move all your hordes of pikmin. It will be a near instantaneous death.
The Bumbling Snitchbug
The Bumbling Snitchbug looks almost exactly like it's swooping counterpart with the exception of his face which is much larger and takes up his body. Instead of going for pikmin however, this pesky critter will try and attack your leaders, like
Captain Olimar
. If manages to capture you and throw you down, it will give you a substantial amount of damage. Their are two preferred ways in defeating this bug. You can either throw Yellow Pikmin from a distance on him so that your captain is out of his reach, or you can use another leader as bait while the other throws purple pikmin on it, stunning and swiftly killing it. Accordint to the Pikmin 2 website, this snitchbug is often called the Revealing Snitchbug, because it reveals how stupid and incompotent you are for being caught.
