In Pikmin Rebirth
The Sand Comber is the eponymous member of the sand comber family appearing in Pikmin Rebirth. They are large, pale yellow mollusks with brown, spiraling shells resembling hardened clay. The Sand Comber, as the name suggests, makes its home in sandy areas, mainly places like canyons, deserts, and other environments with loose soil. The Sand Comber is very passive and is incapable of directly harming most creatures; rather, it wanders slowly about its territory using its brush-like teeth to sift through the soil immediately in front of it like a vacuum, complete with the appropriate sound. They inhale and ingest some smaller creatures such as sheargrubs and Mitites, allowing them to regain health, but they hate ingesting fluids such as water and acid as they can cause them to cough. They can also suck up Pikmin, though they won't be eaten, rather, they will simply be buried in the ground from the other side of this mollusk. While sifting, it will leave a trail of newly mixed soil that impedes movement, making traversal more difficult in areas where these are common. As a result, while not directly deadly, the fact they make traversal more difficult means they should be cleared out regardless.
