Sporegrub

The Sporegrub is a mutated variant of sheargrub. It crawls along vines and eventually falls to the ground, where it slowly patrols. When Pikmin and leaders draw near, it releases a poison cloud in their direction.

In Pikmin: Decayed Leaf
The Sporegrub is a returning enemy in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The bug resembles it appearance in. The Sporegrub can be found on small vines hanging from a cave roof, or simply on the ground wandering around. If on a vine, the creature will fall off of the vine and immediately perform its attack when it hits the ground. No matter is position, it will try to drive away any Pikmin who try to approach it. If attacked or approached, the Sporegrub will spray toxic poisonous gas. Any Pikmin who touch this creature will also be choked by said toxic gas. The only way to take out this creature is through the use of White Pikmin. If you do not have any on you, you can simply punch the bug to death, as the Sporegrub has very little health.
