The '''Graverobber Snitchbug''' is a ghost-like Snitchbug encountered very rarely, and it is a ghastly foe indeed. It is bone white, with a see through body and black eyes. It doesn't pick up your Pikmin, instead, it picks up enemy corpses! After grabbing a corpse, it will struggle a bit to lift off (this is your chance to attack) before flying high once more. Then it will do one of two things. It will either throw the corpse at your Pikmin, knocking them around, or revive the dead enemy, which can be a pain if the enemy was tough to kill. It flies too high for any Pikmin to reach, there for you must wait for it to fly down and struggle with the corpse, then throw Pikmin on it. | The '''Graverobber Snitchbug''' is a ghost-like Snitchbug encountered very rarely, and it is a ghastly foe indeed.

''"The graverobber snitchbug is a scarpanid species distinguishable from its more common relatives by its small stature and translucent exoskeleton, features which have led amateur explorers and sensationalists to mistake the creature for a wandering spirit. Stranger still, it appears to fancy the bodies of the deceased, even utilizing the corpses of nearby beasts as makeshift weaponry. This display of tool use, macabre it may be, is unique amongst the scarpanids, though research on this behavior has stagnated over time."'' |
