* KingMook: One of these for Bullymongs, and the first of the adult Bullymongs encountered (before

!! Terramorphous the Invincible
A truly gigantic and legendary Thresher, who may only be fought after an offering of Eridium and a great horn is sounded to lure it in.
-----
* BlownAcrossTheRoom: An active hazard when fighting Terramorphous is how getting smacked by its tentacles can be strong enough to send the player hurdling off the cliff and to their instant deaths.
* BonusBoss: One of the first of many 'Invincible' enemies for ''2'', who can only be fought once the main story is completed.

* MagikarpPower: They're individually weak enough that a melee attack will kill them instantly, and even in groups they're easy to mow down. Given enough time and if they're in a group, they'll borrow into the ground and form a cocoon from which they'll evolve into larger badass Varkids.

to:

* EvolutionPowerUp: Their main threat comes from the forms they can take when agitated, going through their livespans in a single fight if you give them enough time.
** Larva are 'tiny', about half the size of a human and can be shot away rather quickly. They resemble a strange cross between scorpions with their short stingers and grasshoppers/crickets with their physique and hopping nature.
** Adults are flying enemies who alternate between coughing up a burning spit to biting their prey. They resemble flying beetles with some traits of swarming insects like wasps.
** Badass Varkids lost the ability to fly, but now have such heavy armor that they're now weak to corrosive damage instead of fire, and now prefer to run enemies over at high speeds. They resemble massive and slim stag beetles with the way their mandibles are shaped.
** Super Badass Varkids shed some of their armor to the point they're weak to fire again and can take short flights, but in exchange they sport even higher amounts of HP and can burrow into the ground to attack prey. Their pudgy bodies and single large horn makes them resemble larvae cicadas crossed with rhinoceros beetles.
** Ultimate Badass Varkids grow their wings out to massive sizes and slim their bodies out to enable complete flight, hovering in the air to shoot out caustic globs of spit. Their shape and wingspans bring mosquitos to mind, only gigantic and armored.
** Vermivorous the Invincible is an incredibly rare step in the evolution, capable of running at high speeds to ram enemies and flying in the air to rain down globs of spit and explosive larvae interchangeably.
* MagikarpPower: They're individually weak enough that a melee attack will kill them instantly, and even in groups they're easy to mow down. Given enough time and if they're in a group, they'll borrow into the ground and form a cocoon from which they'll evolve into larger badass Varkids. Give them a truly large amount of time, and they can turn into [[BonusBoss Vermivorous the Invincible.]]
* MetalSlime: Chubby Varkids are a rare variant that have a great chance of dropping certain Legendary items when killed.




!! Vermivorous the Invincible
The final step in the Varkid evolutionary chain, and is incredibly rare to boot. She's the most powerful Varkid one can witness, to the point of being a hidden boss battle.
-----
* AntiClimaxBoss: She can put up a hell of a fight if you can get her to appear, but if you don't want to struggle through the process of actually killing her, you can cheat to cut straight to the looting process.
** On Tundra Express, she can be ran over and killed instantly by trains if you lure her onto the tracks.
** In Caustic Caverns, you can lure her into the giant doors between the mines and caverns, close them, and then reopen them to instantly kill her.
* BonusBoss: There's no real need to fight her, and there's no quests attached to her at all, making her battle something you'd likely go out of your own way to do an experience.
* GuideDangIt: There's no ingame indication that Vermivorous even exists, meaning that finding out about her is likely to be done through word-of-mouth between players, or on accident.

When Dahl executives learned of their valuable crystals, they demanded them to be mined and killed for profit. The ensuing poaching Dahl partook in, and subsequent massacre for both sides, enraged the remaining Crystalisk population to apparently deem most [[HumansAreBastards humans to be utter bastards]], with almost no specimens currently existing who won't attack humans who get too close on sight.

Blue is a gigantic Crystalisk living in the Caustic Caverns, who was one of the first to encounter Dahl miners and befriended Elyse Booth when it was much smaller, who advocated for their preservation when her crew found them. Overseer Harchek, however, demanded they be poached for their valuable crystals, and the bloodbath between Dahl and the Crystalisks drove it hostile to humans.
