Bearded Amprat

The Bearded Amprat is a numbouse that attacks Pikmin by generating electricity, stunning any, except Yellow Pikmin, it touches. Normally, the creature passively walks about its territory, but when Pikmin or a leader come close, it will rapidly stroke its beard to generate electricity, causing its hair to flare up and reveal its face as it charges to try and grab Pikmin and eat them. After a short period of being on the attack, or after being left alone, the amprat will return to its idle behaviors.

In Pikmin Eco
The Bearded Amprat is a mammalian creature returning in Pikmin Eco. While the Bearded Amprat doesn't appear until after completing the game's story mode, its weaker relative, the Cloven Amprat, appears throughout it. The Bearded Amprat behaves as it does in : it will rub its beard with its front paws to generate an electric charge before charging at Pikmin, electrocuting those, except Yellow Pikmin, that get caught in it if it doesn't eat them first.
