Jumping Flickbeetles appear in Pikmin: A Curious Wilderness and jump around, summersaulting above bouncy mushrooms, blocking Pikmin and captains from bouncing off of them. When a Pikmin is thrown on them, they will tumble off and knock the Pikmin off when they hit the ground. After hitting the ground, the Jumping Flickbeetle will quickly burrow and despawn. If a Jumping Flickbeetle is swarmed by Winged Pikmin, they will begin carrying it to the Onion alive. If not enough Winged Pikmin grab onto it in time, the beetle will tumble to the ground and flee. When a fleeing Flickbeetle is killed, it will spit up three blobs of nectar or sprays. If a Jumping Flickbeetle were to run into a Puffstool or bonk into a poison spotcap, it would become a Toxic Flickbeetle.
