Lithomin are parasitic Pikmin in Pikmin: Other Frontier that infected a member of the lithopod family, specifically the Armored Cannon Beetle. They resemble Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae but slightly smaller and with darker green skin and a large green stem protruding from their back. Lithomin are found both on the surface as well as underground, the adults followed by a group of up to ten juveniles or none at all depending on the amount of other on-field Pikmin. While the juveniles don't attack, the adults will and have slightly more health than a typical Armored Cannon Beetle Larva. As well, they spit boulders at a slightly faster rate. Lithomin are resistant to blunt force such as the crushing force exerted by their boulders. The juveniles are useful for breaking down gates and damaging rock-based enemies, and their throw range allows them to reach otherwise inaccessible treasures. Unlike Bulbmin, Lithomin can be stored in and withdrawn from the ship.

Notes

Olimar's notes

“A parasite infecting an animal is nothing new and the Bulbmin are a good example. However, recent discoveries found that lithopods are just as receptive to the parasite. Becoming increasingly common and the lack of a matured variant is probably the reason why matured armored cannon beetles aren't so common anymore.”

Louie's cooking tips

“The skin tastes like spinach but has more iron. Makes a good soup.”
