A beetle,[1] also referred to as a spiked beetle,[2] is an ambient enemy in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. It is a roundish green creature with small wings and a spike on its head. Beetles usually remain in the ground with their spikes showing aboveground. Luigi can suck a beetle up with the Poltergust 5000, or he can shine the Strobulb on it to drop a coin or a heart. Beetles come in a rare gold variation as well, and they can appear after Luigi inspects certain furniture. Shining the Strobulb on this type will yield a Gold Bar. Beetles first appear in the Old Clockworks. When Luigi walks up close enough to a beetle, he takes five HP of damage. Two waves of beetles are fought when Luigi fights the Overset Possessor: one wave of ten beetles at the 5:00 wave, and a wave of fifteen at the 9:00 wave. Gold beetles are usually seen in groups of two to four, and regular beetles are usually seen in groups of three to seven.
