Spitfire Beetle

The Spitfire Beetle is a more aggressive scarab beetle that utilizes fire-based attacks. It idly walks around a small area until it is approached by leaders or Pikmin, where it will quickly turn to face awake from them, open its carapace, and rapidly fire several fiery projectiles at them. These projectiles do not kill Pikmin but will set all but Red Pikmin ablaze. Any Pikmin type can be thrown on top of a Spitfire Beetle to flip it, where it will become vulnerable to attack.
