In Pikmin: Decayed Leaf
The Scarab Giant is a new boss encountered in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The giant boss resembles a stag beetle; being around the size of a Sandbelching Meerslug. The creature is of a brown coloration, with a black head and legs. The wings are light grey, and its eyes are a glowing blue. Along with one sharp spike on each leg, its large pincers are extremely sharp and have razor, jagged edges. When you enter the arena of the Scarab Giant, the large beetle will erupt from the ground; swinging its large pincers around. After a crackly, deep roar, the battle will begin.

The large beetle is extremely hostile, and wont hesitate to attack immediately when the battle starts. The beetles main attack is charging the group while slashing its pincers around. The pincers can jab and kill Pikmin easily. In order to beat the boss, you must wait for it to enter its second state; flying. The giant beetle will begin to fly around the arena, occasionally divebombing to attack and jab at Pikmin. If enough Winged Pikmin are thrown at its head when its not jabbing, the bug will be weighed down, fall onto the floor and flip over. Its soft underbelly will be exposed to attack. After a while, the bug will flip back up and resume its fight.

If the Scarab Giant emits a large roar, the Pikmin will be sent into a frenzy, and up to seven Anode Beetles will fall from the sky and flip over. However, its most deadly attack can happen when its flying. The Scarab Giant will aim its rear at any Pikmin and shoot out a giant ball of lightning. The ball will erupt into a large ring of electricity; similar to the Titan Dweevil's Shock Therapist attack. During the duration of the electricity, the beetle will attempt to slash down at any Pikmin nearby; but may hit the ring of electricity and fall down and flip over from shock.
