Biology
- Diet: small animals
- Predators: Snagrets
The Boulder Starsnout is a burrowing animal, and a distant relative to the Bearded Amprat and the Naked Amprat, though it lost its ability to produce electricity and has adopted a subterranean lifestyle. It is capable of creating landslides from its molehill and it can jump out of the ground to eat Pikmin it is under after it burrows.
Piklopedia Entry
- "This odd animal is thought to have lost its ability to produce electricity in return for adopting a subterranean lifestyle. It is theorized that the strange appendages on the tip of its snout are used to better locate prey underground and above the surface. While it is a predator to many, snagrets prey on them regularly, and one above ground is vulnerable to many other predators."
Strategy
The Boulder Starsnout is encountered and fought at the summit of a tall hill, possibly made by the animal itself. The fight against the Boulder Starsnout revolves around reaching the top of the hill while avoiding having leaders and Pikmin getting crushed by the landslides it creates. Once the summit is reached, Pikmin can be thrown onto the creature until it shakes them off and throws its attackers to the base of the hill. The Boulder Starsnout may occasionally burrow underground to attack Pikmin from below. Continue climbing the molehill and attacking the creature until its eventual defeat.
