Bronzed Cannon Beetle Larva

The Bronzed Cannon Beetle Larvae or simply the Bronzed Cannon Larvae is a species of lithopod appearing in Pikmin: Spark. As the name suggests their skin has a shining bronze sheen to it as a result of a diet of copper and other similar metals. While most commonly found stationary in mounds like other Larvae rarely mobile Bronzed Cannon Larvae have been seen existing. While normal lithopods shoot boulders that roll across the ground the Bronzed Cannon Larvae differentiates itself by lobbing boulders lined with metal that crushes anyone that gets hit by it. Due to this Rock Pikmin are ideal as not only are they immune to the boulder's crushing but can also deal heavy damage to the lithopod. It has an adult form called the Bronzed Cannon Beetle. Oddly enough there is a small chance that the boulders will be gold in color and drop a large amount of Sparklium when crashing into the ground, but only a very rare chance.
