The Grubchucker is a particularly tall enemy that hunts Pikmin but is not aggressive toward leaders themselves. It attacks by swiping its pincers at Pikmin, catching up to one Pikmin in one, and placing them into the mouth on top of its body, swallowing and killing them if not interrupted. Pikmin directed to attack a Grubchucker will climb its legs if they can't reach the body on the initial throw. The Grubchucker will collapse and become entirely vulnerable if enough Pikmin are latched on to it or if Oatchi charges the back of its legs.

The Grubchucker is a returning enemy in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The creature resembles its original appearance in Pikmin 4. It wanders about a set area until it spots Pikmin specifically. It will then attempt to scoop up to 5 of them in each claw before tossing them into the mouth atop its head, whereupon they will be digested and killed. If the Grubchucker's legs are attacked, the creature will fall over, and upon doing so, will pour out a small pool of green fluid, being its stomach fluids. The bile will make the Pikmin slip up and fall over, but Rubber Pikmin are unaffected by it. This buys the Grubchucker a bit of time to get back up, making it effective to attack the crab from behind to maximize damage. Iguana Pikmin can attack the creature from the top of its head without having to knock it down. Cactus Pikmin can also damage its legs and do moderate damage, much like attacking its head would.
