'''Joustmites''' are beetle-like enemies that appears in [[Pikmin 3]], appearing similar to the [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]] of [[Pikmin 2]]. It attacks by sticking out its long, pointy tongue, piercing one [[Pikmin]] and then sucking them up. [[Rock Pikmin]], being immune to brute force attacks, cannot be hurt by the Joustmite. It has a white weak spot hanging out of its rear. Flying variations, called [[Flighty Joustmite]]s, appear as well. The only difference between Flighty Joustmites and normal ones is that, after taking a certain amount of damage, it begins to fly and can only be hit by [[Winged Pikmin]] and [[Yellow Pikmin]].
'''Joustmites''' are enemies that behave similarly to the [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]] and look like them as well. They can be seen as the opposite of the Burrow-nit however, as Joustmites shield the front of their body, requiring the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to attack from behind. Winged variants of Joustmites, known as [[Flighty Joustmite]]s, can sometimes be found alongside these creatures.


Just like the Cloaking Burrow-nit, the Joustmite hides partially buried in the ground, waiting for unsuspecting prey. Once a group of Pikmin enters the attack range of the enemy, it pops out from under the ground and proceeds to attack Pikmin by attempting to use its long, needle-like proboscis to spear them. If any Pikmin are caught in this attack, they will be held in the air for a brief moment before being eaten. Unlike the Burrow-nit, the Joustmite can capture up to three Pikmin with this attack.

Joustmites are enemies that behave similarly to the Cloaking Burrow-nit and look like them as well. They can be seen as the opposite of the Burrow-nit however, as Joustmites shield the front of their body, requiring the Pikmin to attack from behind. Winged variants of Joustmites, known as Flighty Joustmites, can sometimes be found alongside these creatures.

Just like the Cloaking Burrow-nit, the Joustmite hides partially buried in the ground, waiting for unsuspecting prey. Once a group of Pikmin enters the attack range of the enemy, it pops out from under the ground and proceeds to attack Pikmin by attempting to use its long, needle-like proboscis to spear them. If any Pikmin are caught in this attack, they will be held in the air for a brief moment before being eaten. Unlike the Burrow-nit, the Joustmite can capture up to three Pikmin with this attack.
