The Greater Bladed Beeb is a large beeb that resembles a praying mantis with blades on its arms. It scuttles about the arena, widely swinging its blades, and has three different attacks: it attacks with one blade two consecutive times, dashes forward and thrusts its blades downward, or spins in a circle with its blades pointing outward. Both its head and abdomen are its glassy weakpoints, but reaching them is made difficult by the creature's reflexes and ability to quickly turn around. Once one of its weakpoints is broken, it becomes enraged, increasing its speed. Afterward, it will use its strike attack and double blade attacks three times consecutively. Upon defeat, its eyes widen, and it collapses onto the field and falls apart before exploding.

The Greater Bladed Beeb is a species of beeb in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The creature resembles its original form in Pikmin Adventure, being a mechanical, mantis-like creature with two large blades. However, the creature functions much differently than its original incarnation.
When the battle begins, the Beeb has a few different attacks in its first phase. It will attempt to swipe its blade at Pikmin, reducing their maturities and sometimes even killing them. Its second attack is swinging its blades to the ground and spinning around, scattering the Pikmin around the arena. Its main attack is charging the Pikmin with its two blades and slamming them into the ground. The attack can wipe out dozens of Pikmin at once but is slow to prepare. If successfully dodged, the creature will get its blades stuck in the ground. This allows for the captain to throw Rock Pikmin at its abdomen to shatter it. If shattered, the creature will become enraged, developing a reddish hue and entering its second phase.
In its second phase, the Beeb will grow an extra pair of blades. This allows for the insect to swipe twice and cover more ground in its first attack. In its spin attack, it also covers a larger area. In its new attack, it will launch its blades into the air, causing the four swords to impale the ground and any unfortunate Pikmin. Its charge attack is quicker, and the two extra blades will stab the ground on each side of the Beeb. If Rock Pikmin are used to break the weak point on its head, the creature will be defeated, causing it to explode.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “The Beeb species seems to have a complex colony in this planet's ecosystem. This creature seems to serve as the royal prince to the King Beeb. Greater Bladed Beebs will usually spend their time inside colonies until mating season arrives. These creatures will exit their dens during mating season to find a partner and start a new colony. It just so happens that they are extremely aggressive during this time as well. A few researchers have been sent to the ER when documenting the Beebs.”
Louie's notes
- “Unfortunately, this creature cannot be consumed as it will self-destruct when harvested. Don't try to eat it alive either. It's been tested..”
President’s notes
- “I was going to recruit this guy to help chop down trees if I started a lumber company, but then I realized trying to recruit these guys may end up in me becoming sliced Hocotation...”
