The '''Caustic Dweevil''' is a non-aggressive enemy that attacks in self-defense. As is typical of Dweevils, it picks up any treasure or enemy body it can find, only releasing it when [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] attack. The only offensive measure the beast can take is spraying an acidic bodily fluid that functions identically to [[water]], meaning it chokes and drowns all Pikmin types except [[Blue Pikmin]], [[Bulbmin]], and other water-resistant Pikmin, making those the best choice in battle against it.

Caustic Dweevils scurry about randomly and take no note of the presence of any leader or Pikmin if left undisturbed. When provoked, one will attempt to defend itself by releasing a pressurized spurt of water below it.

The '''Caustic Dweevil''' is a kind of enemy in the Pikmin 2 game. This Dweevil picks up any treasure or enemy body it can find. Caustic means corrosive, and this may portend to the fact it releases water. It is a blue dweevil that when agitated by attacks, it well release a blast of water that will attempt to drown out your Pikmin. This suitably makes [[Blue Pikmin]] the best choice in battle. Also since [[Purple Pikmin]] can stun any small Dweevil, they will also work well.
When a treasure or a corpse of another creature is nearby, a Caustic Dweevil will lift it up onto its head and carry it, making it impossible for Pikmin to collect until it is broken free. When a Dweevil has an item in its possession, it will stay at rest, crouching down, appearing as if it is only the item, until it is approached by a leader or Pikmin, at which point it will stand up and run away.

The Caustic Dweevil is one member of an insect family known for mimicking objects by carrying them on their backs. Several points of differentiation with other members of the species have been confirmed, such as body color and behavioral patterns, but none of these suggest major deviations in the creature's genetic structure. This makes it clear that it is a relative of the family. When attacked by enemies, the Caustic Dweevil spits out bodily fluids in response. Space suits corrode and oxidize when they come into contact with this highly acidic liquid.

The Caustic Dweevil is a non-aggressive enemy that attacks in self-defense. As is typical of Dweevils, it picks up any treasure or enemy body it can find, only releasing it when Pikmin attack. The only offensive measure the beast can take is spraying an acidic bodily fluid that functions identically to water, meaning it chokes and drowns all Pikmin types except Blue Pikmin, Bulbmin, and other water-resistant Pikmin, making those the best choice in battle against it.

Caustic Dweevils scurry about randomly and take no note of the presence of any leader or Pikmin if left undisturbed. When provoked, one will attempt to defend itself by releasing a pressurized spurt of water below it. Caustic Dweevils are frail creatures and will die quickly if attacked by even a few Pikmin, or by the punches from a leader.

When a treasure or a corpse of another creature is nearby, a Caustic Dweevil will lift it up onto its head and carry it, making it impossible for Pikmin to collect until it is broken free. When a Dweevil has an item in its possession, it will stay at rest, crouching down, appearing as if it is only the item, until it is approached by a leader or Pikmin, at which point it will stand up and run away.
