The '''Hermit Crawmad''' is the first known member of the [[crawmad family]], and are known for their variance in sizes. These enemies live their lives in holes and pop out when prey approaches. With a quick lunge, they can catch their target, reel back, and feed on it in its burrow. The Hermit Crawmad is a semi-passive creature. It sits inside its hole and is usually found around watery areas, although it can survive on dry land as well. It will peek out of its hole when the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[leader]]s approach it and it will attack if one gets too near to its dwelling. It attacks by charging out of its hole and grabbing a Pikmin, then backpedaling to its nest, where the Pikmin is eaten. If it misses, it will turn around and return to its dwelling, slower than usual. It can climb walls if it is necessary for it to get back to its nest. While sitting on the nest and peeking out, if it can no longer see prey nearby, it'll retreat inside.
The '''Hermit Crawmad''' is a crustacean that appears in numerous areas throughout ''[[Pikmin Eco]]''. Their behavior mirrors that of {{p3}}: they are found in shallow holes often by a body of [[water]]. They remain stationary in these holes until a [[leader]] or their [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] wander too close, to which they will emerge, and after a while, lunge out and attempt to catch its prey. If successful it will drag them back to its den to eat. Unlike any other enemy, there are two different types of Hermit Crawmad found; those found in Shimmering Seaside are twice as big as those found in Bounty Canopy or anywhere else.

:''"Looking at the eyes and sickle-shaped legs characteristic of squillas, one would think this is a squilla relative. In fact, it is a relative of the hermit crab. This species, however, has migrated from seaside life in a shell and instead inhabits burrows in the ground. While its legs appear sickle-like, they are pincers that have evolved into a fin shape. This beast feeds on small creatures that pass by its lair, dragging them inside to eat them."''

The Hermit Crawmad appears in Pikmin 251. It appears exactly as it does in Pikmin 2.

Notes

Olimar's observations

These strange crustaceans live in burrows they dig underground. They particularly like aquatic habitats, like quite a few creatures on this planet. The way they draw Pikmin one at a time into their hole is quite unsettling. I can't imagine what happens to pikmin it grabs.

The Hermit Crawmad is a crustacean that appears in numerous areas throughout Pikmin Eco. Their behavior mirrors that of Pikmin 3: they are found in shallow holes often by a body of water. They remain stationary in these holes until a leader or their Pikmin wander too close, to which they will emerge, and after a while, lunge out and attempt to catch its prey. If successful it will drag them back to its den to eat. Unlike any other enemy, there are two different types of Hermit Crawmad found; those found in Shimmering Seaside are twice as big as those found in Bounty Canopy or anywhere else.

Notes

In-game entry

It's highly interesting how much of a size difference there is between saltwater crawmads and freshwater crawmads. Those found along the coastline are fairly large in stature as forest-dwelling specimens are half the size. It is suggested that this results from the cramped conditions within the forest as opposed to the open sea. If this is correct, then it would also explain other variations of size between other species found in the ecosystem.

In Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers, the Hermit Crawmad acts identical to its Pikmin 3 incarnation. Some Hermit Crawmads can be encountered nesting within the holes that allow for further exploration in caves and must be defeated or tricked into lunging before the hole can be entered.

Notes

Olimar's notes

This crustacean is capable of living in fresh, brackish, and salt water. It is incredibly versatile and preys on creatures that dare linger near its burrow. Notably, this solitary creature descended from the lineage of hermit crabs, and relies on a den rather than a shell for protection of its fleshy underside.

Louie's notes

Suprisingly goes very well with chocolate, having some warm milk chocolate on standby for dipping this creature's meat in as you eat it is practically a necessity.

Ship's comments

When I look at him, I see an honest ol' farmer. The only issue is that he isn't honest, and the crops he eats aren't his. In a way, it also seems as if he's trying to drive us off of his lawn, which... is fair. However, we have a job to do as well, and we have nary a concern on how other people are affected... or at least that's my outlook on business.

Notes

Olimar's notes

Strangely, this is the only creature that varies in size wherever I go. Other creatures appear to be exact copies of each other and are never different. Even then, the Hermit Crawmads are exact copies of each other, just in a different size. Just so peculiar!
