Arctic Aristocrab

The Arctic Aristocrab is a large species of crab-like creature in Pikmin Z. It resembles a light blue version of a Peckish Aristocrab, with fur on its large claw.

Biology
The Arctic Aristocrab adapted to life in the cold. During the boss fight, it will occasionally throw snowballs at leaders and Pikmin, crushing anything underneath them. If Pikmin get too close, it will try to slam Pikmin with its larger, fur-covered claw.

Piklopedia Entry

 * "The arctic aristocrab has evolved to live farther away from the ocean, and able to survive in bitter temperatures. I haven't had much time to study it."

Strategy
Once it arrives in the area, priority number one is to dislodge the fur on its claws. The rest of its body is covered in armor, and any Pikmin thrown onto it will bounce off. Throw Pikmin onto its large claw, and pluck off all the hair on it until it's completely bare. Once this happens, it can no longer throw snowballs and leaves an opening to attack it.
