The Dirtrud is an enemy in Pikmin: Interstellar Cryptid. It resembles its Pikmin: The Mystery Potion incarnation, being a green frog with horn-like protrusions on its head and an elongated tail end. When approached by leaders and Pikmin, it will grab some soil with its mouth and shape it into a small boulder, before spitting the finished product out at its would-be aggressors. This boulder doesn't roll far, and crumbles once it loses all momentum. When attacked by Pikmin, it may retaliate by lashing out its tongue to eat them.

Notes

Olimar's notes

Dirtruds spawn when their predators are less active, and have no set breeding period. As such, their population is prone to wildly fluctuating, often unexpectedly so. It deals with small, parasitic insects by crushing them under the weight of compacted balls of sediment bound by its own adhesive saliva.

Louie's notes

Tastes much too repugnant to actually turn into an appetizing dish, but I did have lots of fun dissecting it anyway.

Bentley's notes

Oh gosh, seeing it stuff its face with all that dirt reminded me of the time I tried to see how many gummy worms I could fit into my mouth just to impress my friends. Maybe I should just stop showing off, because there was vomit everywhere!

Eloise's notes

How silly, it thinks it's an armored cannon beetle larva! I can understand why it does the imitation, they're big and scary creatures that grow into even bigger and scarier creatures! And frankly, I'd be flattered if I was an armored cannon beetle myself!
