The Gauntlet Groink is a highly-dangerous groink appearing in Pikmin Z. This titanic groink appears less like a fish, and more like a well-oiled machine: it has a round, spherical body, a single eye at the center of its face behind its facial shield, and four pipes on its back that release steam. It not only has a cannon-mouth typical of groink, but it also has dual rapid-fire weaponry it uses to quickly dispose of threats. The Gauntlet Groink's diet and predators are unknown.
