The '''Iridescent Flint Beetle''' is harmless and will remain underground until a [[Leader]] or [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] approaches its resting spot. Once active, the Flint Beetle will scurry about in no particular direction; only away from its attackers after being hit. It moves quickly and can be difficult to hit at times, but repeatedly flipping it over for up to three times will provide increasingly valuable rewards. After being hit three times, or being active for a certain amount of time, the creature will scurry back underground. Though it does not die, it will not return for the rest of the day. When hit, it can produce [[nectar]] or other rewards such as [[pellet]]s.
The '''Iridescent Flint Beetle''' is harmless to [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], and instead runs around unpredictably. When a Pikmin is thrown directly on top of it, it flips over and drops a useful object or item, such as a [[pellet]] or a drop of [[spray]]. Pikmin attacking from the ground cannot harm it. This enemy spends most of the time underground, only surfacing when a [[leader]] comes near, and it will return to the ground after some time has passed or after it has been hit enough times.

__TOC__
===Olimar's notes===
:''"Flint beetles are nocturnal, choosing to hide in the grass by day and stay active at night. These creatures keep undigested food pellets in their stomachs to sustain them through winter, but given the right stimulus they will spit them out. Recent research has revealed that these pellets are enveloped in a membrane that seals and preserves them in a sterile, airtight environment. If kept at room temperature, it seems that this pellet membrane will keep its contents fresh for up to six months. The membrane may be made from the same substance that gives the exoskeleton of the flint beetle its beautiful sheen."''

:''"An essential flavor-accenting ingredient in gumbo and jambalaya. Also delicious in soups, broths, and marinades."''

The '''Iridescent Flint Beetle''' is a harmless enemy found in [[Pikmin Eco]], and one of the few enemies that are found in every aboveground area in the game. It will not attack the player in anyway, and will scurry around the area at high speed. This creature will drop varying Nectar and Pellets if struck on the head, so it is beneficial to try and attack it.

The Iridescent Flint Beetle is harmless to Pikmin, and instead runs around unpredictably.

This enemy spends most of the time underground, only surfacing when a leader comes near, and it will return to the ground after some time has passed or after it has been hit enough times.
