Pigron

The Pigron is a hardmode monster found in the Underground Snow biome when it is overlapped by Underground Hallow, Underground Corruption, or Underground Crimson. It comes in multiple colors (depending on which spreading biome it's in) and has a special ability to turn "invisible," allowing it to fly through solid blocks. It does not truly become invisible, only highly transparent, and can be seen with close attention. As it starts to attack, it will become visible again. When it starts moving towards the player it may also make an audible growl.
