A headbutt grab involves performing a headbutt and in the motion you get from the headbutt, grabbing onto a ball. This is useful from rest as it starts you with more speed due to the momentum of the headbutt rather than just grabbing it and walking normally.

Grabs can be pre-inputted and the grab window lasts for about a second where you can just walk into a ball (or headbutt into it in this case) and it will automatically grab it for you if its within the window

Inputting a grab while in a headbutt will cancel out of the headbutt so only do it when you want to actually grab!

Headbutt grabs are most useful on beetles that propel themselves more from headbutts (in order to get more speed out of the headbutt grab). For example it is the foundation of most of the Goliath Beetle's advanced tech.

Advanced Forms

Some beetles have advanced forms of headbutt grabs that play into their abilities in order to be more effective. The following is a list of all of the known ones:
