In Pikmin: The Continents
The Sand Pikmin is a beach-dwelling Pikmin appearing in Pikmin: The Continents. Adapted to beaches, Sand Pikmin are named after the sand they roll around in to cover their pale blue skin, providing them with resistance to fire and electricity, although they can not swim. While hunting, such as for Cradweelers and other small prey, Sand Pikmin conceal themselves under sand and wait for them to unknowingly approach, pouncing on and killing them when they get close enough. Getting too close to a Sand Pikmin may agitate it, prompting it to attack. Hostile Sand Pikmin can be soothed by shiny seashells.
