Cold Catcher(known as Snug Thug in British English localizations) is a variant of the Beetle Whisperer appearing in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moons ScareScraper, and later returning in Luigi's Mansion Arcade.
History[]
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon[]
Cold Catcher first appears in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, as a ScareScraper-exclusive boss. Like all bosses, Cold Catcher is randomly fought on every fifth floor, barring the top floor.
Luigi's Mansion Arcade[]
Cold Catcher returns in Luigi's Mansion Arcade. Like all Beetle Whisperer variants in the game, Cold Catcher is now the same size as regular Slammers, have 25 HP, and cannot summon Beetles nor use paranormal shields upon being vacuumed up. Multiple copies of Cold Catcher may be found only in the Treacherous Mansion. They are usually encountered with other ghosts such as Strong Greenies, Strong Slammers, Tether Jacket, Hiders and Strong Hiders.

Physical description[]

In his appearance in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, Cold Catcher is the same size as the Beetle Whisperer. In Luigi's Mansion Arcade, he is the same size as normal Slammers.
Powers and abilities[]
- Beetle summoning: Cold Catcher is capable of summoning multiple beetles.
- Greenie summoning: Cold Catcher can summon Greenies and Strong Greenies to assist him.
- Paranormal shields: Cold Catcher can use paranormal shields of any color.
- Shockwave: Cold Catcher can create a powerful red shockwave by clapping his hands.
Strategy[]
The strategy to capture Cold Catcher remains the same as fighting the Beetle Whisperer.
On Normal/Hard ScareScrapers, 1-2 Luigis should focus on vacuuming the Slammer, whilst the other Luigi(s) should focus on destroying beetles and capturing normal or sword and shield variants of Greenies and Strong Greenies, Cold Catcher's support ghosts. For the Luigi(s) vacuuming Cold Catcher, remember to jump before being hit by a beetle or Greenies/Strong Greenies.
On Expert/Endless ScareScrapers and with a full or near-full group, all Luigis should work together and focus on depleting the Slammer's health, though some can break off the Slammer and clear up some beetles and Greenies/Strong Greenies, but then return to vacuuming up Cold Catcher after they are finished for now.
If one Luigi goes the ScareScraper alone, regardless of difficulty, these are the tips to follow. Try and break the shield first, then clear up some of the beetles and Greenies/Strong Greenies before depleting the Slammer's health. Always remember to jump and try and let the Slammer pull Luigi for a bit to clear some gaps, but not too long or else he'll trip and lose health.
By following these tips, Cold Catcher should be captured successfully in no time.
