The Glacial Studded Beeb is a dangerous boss that appears in Pikmin: Infection in Progress. It prowls within the fog of Noxious Expanse. It is one of the most difficult bosses but is completely optional. Only luck, chance, and awareness decide whether the President is faced with the robotic arctic menace. As it wanders the area, the Glacial Studded Beeb emits loud mechanical wails and shrieks that echo throughout the frozen landscape. The boss can be heard emitting monstrous roars as it engages other creatures in combat, which it will do if it comes across any that do not flee. The sounds of its footsteps are dampened due to the area's snow, but if heard, consist of thumps and clangs. Seeing the silhouette of the Glacial Studded Beeb is the closest the President can get before it initiates combat.

The Glacial Studded Beeb has a very similar appearance to a praying mantis; it has an erect posture, a head and an abdomen with two pairs of legs connected to the abdomen, and a pair of frontal limbs that end with frozen spiked balls. On the top of its head and the end of its abdomen are purple glowing domes that act as the boss's weak points. On the rim of the head where the dome and the base of the head connect are its eye stalks and actual eyes. The boss is mainly light grey with black highlights spread across most parts of its body. Its eyes are black and its pupils blink cyan and white.

The Glacial Studded Beeb is an exceptionally difficult and resilient opponent, although its remains are well worth the fight. Once initiated into combat, the Glacial Studded Beeb will charge towards its prey, and attempt to crush them with the dual spike balls at the end of its frontal limbs. If dodged quickly enough, the attack can be avoided and will render the boss helpless briefly. The Glacial Studded Beeb will yank its weapons out from the snow, and swing them to and fro in an attempt to crush and fling Pikmin away from their leader. It finishes this move by dragging its weapons around itself swiftly twice, at which point it will become dizzy and be rendered helpless for a short time. Any Pikmin underneath the boss can be crushed as it stomps its feet into the ground. Making any contact with certain parts of the Glacial Studded Beeb, like its dual spike balls, will chill and eventually freeze the President or his Pikmin. Pikmin hit by the spiked balls but not killed by them will be thrown back and depetaled.

The Glacial Studded Beeb's weak points are the purple domes on its head and posterior; attacking these will slowly drain the boss's health. After destroying one of the domes, the boss becomes stunned and enters a rage state in which it will attack faster and deliver more damage. The upside to this is that the boss is more vulnerable because it is now frequently helpless, although the boss is increasingly deadlier. Upon being defeated, the Glacial Studded Beeb will stand straight up, tremble with increasing intensity while emanating a screech that rises in pitch, and ultimately self-destruct, which can kill any Pikmin caught in the radius. Its eyes go dim and blacken, and it produces a mechanical groan that quickly fades. The several pieces of the boss are retrievable and give a large sum of seeds to compensate for any losses during the fight.
