A Darkfreeze Shearwig is a Shearwig that has been infused with Darkfreeze energy. It is dark purple, with long, bladelike wings and a sharp segmented body. Its pincers are made of solid ice, and it has two glowing red eyes. Once it emerges from the ground, it acts like a normal Shearwig until its health is in the yellow, in which it will fly off the screen and dive back down in seven seconds into the ground, taking any Pikmin caught underneath with it. They have much more health than normal Shearwigs.
