In Pikmin Evolution
The Mammoth Cantelope is a species of juvenile Snootwhack appearing in Pikmin Evolution. It is a quadruped creature likes it distant relative the Mammoth Snootwhacker, but it has a more rounded body and has the coloration and texture of a, giving it its name. It is the adult form of the Miniature Cantelope and as such acts like a bigger and stronger version of its younger self. It shares the younger form's lack of a long trunk, instead having a shorter but more prehensile truck from which it can perform several complicated maneuvers. For instance the Mammoth Cantelope is advanced enough to use simple tools in combat, such as using a tree branch as a sword to sweep and cut as any attacking Pikmin, it can grab a large piece of meat to act as a powerful crushing hammer, or grab a squeaking toy that can put Pikmin into a panic. Like its younger counterpart, this species of Snootwhacker lives nears sources of acid, while it doesn't use the acid itself in combat, its thick hide lets in wade in it just fine without any major damages. Also just like its younger counterpart, it has a combat style revolving around charging forward its its thick skull and stunning any Pikmin in its way, with a stun that lasts longer than usual, before grabbing and eating the stragglers with its trunk. As an adult this creature has the new addition of a pair of short tusks in its face, which it can use to box Pikmin inside its mouth to easily grab and eat them. Like the Miniature Cantelope, the Mammoth Cantelop can only be defeated by having your Pikmin army swarm one side and tip it over. In this case rather than needing 15 Pikmin, the Mammoth Cantelope needs 30 Pikmin to tip it over. This reveals its soft underbelly, which you can attack freely with no risk of counterattack, however be careful not to swarm it as after a while it will shake off anyone attacking it, who would be prime candidates for the Mammoth Cantelope's shoving attack, rather toss Pikmin one by one onto its belly instead. Kelp Pikmin, with their ability to lift twice as much as a normal Pikmin, can push the Mammoth Catelope at half the numbers than usual, or in other words you only need 15 Kelp Pikmin to flip the Mammoth over. The weapon it carries should be removed from the Mammoth's grasp before attacking the main boss as not only will it deprive the Catelope of its precious tool, it can also be collected as a piece of refuse if brought over to the ship. Overall a surprisingly crafty foe, but one without its weaknesses, especially if outnumbered.
