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.

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 Pikmin 3: 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.

The Bearded Amprat is a rodent-like creature in Pikmin: Before the Impact that creates static electricity by rubbing its fur, causing it to become electrified. While it is electrified, it can eat Pikmin.
Notes
Stevvy’s observations
- “This furry fella uses the power of static electricity to charge up the fur on its body to scare away any predators. I mean, I would run away too if I had to see that horrifying face under all that fur! Yeesh...”
Natti’s cookbook
- “The body is the heartiest part of this creature. Sprinkle in some garlic powder, cayenne, and lemon juice, and make it into spicy Amprat patties that are sure to leave your mouth crackling! The lemon juice pairs well with the lingering electricity.”

In Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers, Bearded Amprats are first encountered in the Windswept Wonderland, not unlike their previous primary habitat of the Distant Tundra in Pikmin 3. They are also functionally identical, but are much more social; they're often seen interacting with others of their kind.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “When it feels threatened, this distant relative of the stakeshrews will rub the fur on its face to build up static electricity. Eventually, the levels of energy reach a point where its hairs stand on end, sparking with electric power that will taze and incapacitate those who cross its path. Unlike most animals on this planet, this is not primarily a predatory response but rather a territorial one. The numbouse family is notable for reintroducing mammals with conventional mammary glands in the ecosystem. Creatures like the blowhog instead feature milk patches to feed their young, but the numbouse and stakeshrew families breastfeed their young instead. Scientists are enthusiastic over this development in the natural world.”
Louie's notes
- “The constant electric shocks this vermin brings upon itself makes its meat naturally astringent. Squirt fruit juice over its thighs to make it more palatable. Pan-sear them in olive oil with rosemary sprigs and garlic cloves to really bring it together.”
Ship's comments
- “Fur like that looks more itchy than it does comfy. It might not seem like it, but rust patches are like rashes to me, and I can't reach them particularly easily either.
