Name: Swarming Sheargrub
Debut: Pikmin 3
I know what you’re thinking, Silly Larva! And yes this is quite the silly larva! But it goes beyond that this might be the Silliest Larva!
Swarming Sheargrubs are very shaped green grubs with a silly face, but most importantly they travel in packs! and are constantly on the move! Able to wander about any place in the area you’re in, just like you!
Quite the organized group they always stay near each other, but what are they wandering about for? Well just like you they have quite an appetite for Fruit and Nectar! When they encounter fruit they will violently JUMP on top of it, presumably eating and also weighing it down in the process, making it harder for you and your Pikmin to carry the fruit back to base! But I can’t get mad at a fellow fruit lover! I’d love to be able to share! Regardless, since they are quite silly, they will fall off the fruit after a while, look! They bounce and tumble! Certified Silly Activities!
Fortunately there is something I can share with them that won’t risk my 100% completion, Nectar! They love it so much! If you break open a nectar egg they will swarm to it and slurp it down! Making silly munching sounds! But that’s not all! Something magical occurs when they eat nectar… They grow up! A lot! Take a look! Also hear them hurgle closer as they approach the nectar….
As you can see sometimes there isn’t enough nectar for everybody,,, So a few will remain small but it makes them look cuter together!
Please talk to us or our son whenever you please!
Finally, I was delighted to find they have complex and interesting behaviors! Following them around for a whole day is VERY engaging! Apparently if they encounter a patch of plants they will hide in it and remain there for a while! becoming much quieter, it kinda looks like they’re planning something… Look!
So yeah hope you now appreciate these epic beans too! They are my friends I’d like to hang out with them sometime wander about a beach, hop on a fruit or two…. What a life!
