Soldier Droneule

The Soldier Droneule is a droneoid miniboss appearing in Pikmin: Corporate Combat. Its resembles the Impaling Droneule, but larger and with two pairs of spiny arms. It crushes and impales Pikmin with its arms and it fires bolts of lightning from its bulb-shaped head.

Since Rock Pikmin are immune to crushing and impaling, they are effective against the Soldier Droneule, but they can be killed by the lightning it fires. When the creature's head sparks, flee from it to avoid being shocked.

Olimar's notes

 * "This titanic beast appears to be a subspecies of droneule, this one able to fire a powerful electric current from its bulbous head! Its exoskeleton is stunningly developed, immune to injury on the legs and torso, but is still able to be harmed on the bulb. Another notable difference from many other subspecies is the extra pair of appendages, which it uses to shred and crush creatures brave or foolish enough to wander into its territory. Recent research indicates these creatures live in large colonies, with many different subspecies dwelling, each playing a different role. The soldier droneule protects the colony from invaders."

Louie's notes

 * "Inedible. Consumption of the bulb leads to painful muscle cramps and explosive diarrhea."
