'''Careening Dirigibugs''' ({{j|サクレウラメ|Sakureurame}}) are extremely strange creatures in ''Pikmin 2''. Colorful balloon-like appendages allow them to drift gracefully around. Despite their comical appearance, when approached, Dirigibugs pull from their mouths [[bomb-rock]]s and toss them onto the ground with the intent of blowing Pikmin off the map. This can be taken advantage of to damage other enemies. | |||
These beasts are only found underground, which includes caves, [[Challenge Mode]] and a single [[:Category:2-Player Battle locations|2-player stage]], [[Hostile Territory]]. | |||

===''Brawl'' trophy description=== | |||
==='' | "A dangerous, offensive-minded creature. It uses balloons to keep it afloat as it flies through the air and drops bomb-rocks on ground-bound prey. These Bomb-rocks sometimes turn out to be duds, but since the slightest stimulus can set these things off, the ultimate care should be taken with them." | ||
== Strategy == | == Strategy == | ||
Dirigibugs can be defeated in the same manner as [[Scarpanid]]s and other flying enemies: rapidly [[throw]] [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] onto it while in the air (one [[Purple Pikmin]] will work just as well), then [[Group move|swarm]] it when it falls. The creature should be approached from behind if possible, and [[Ultra-Bitter Spray]] is very useful should the enemy be carrying a bomb-rock. | |||
Without a spray, the creature will throw its bomb a [[Randomness|random]] distance and direction when attacked. Should it land too close to the enemy to be able to make an approach, the player must back off and try again. Alternatively, bring it to the ground then whistle all Pikmin back to safety; then the Dirigibug will take longer to procure a new bomb-rock, leaving it vulnerable once the bomb-rock on the ground has exploded. | |||
Careening Dirigibugs are also useful in that they can take out other [[enemy|enemies]]. You must walk towards a group of enemies alone, and allow the Dirigibug to follow you. Lure it into throwing a bomb-rock in front of you and the enemies. Then, retreat, and let the bomb-rock detonate on the enemies. | |||

{{ | {{Clean|Move to the glitches article when they're good, but first, confirm them.}} | ||
There is a rare glitch that you will see one floating without balloons. | |||
In some dungeons like the Hole of Heroes, a Careening Dirigibug can throw a bomb rock over a barrier when trying to kill your Pikmin on the other side. On the first floor of the [[Cavern of Chaos]], some can get caught in the pipes. | |||
One glitch that can occur with the Careening Dirigibug involves invisible bombs. A captain may activate a bomb while the Dirigibug is still holding it, which will cause it to explode while the creature is still holding the bomb. The Careening Dirigibug continues the "holding" animation, even when there is no bomb there. It will eventually perform the throwing animation with the bomb that is not there. <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itwEZlwcbcw YouTube video] showing the invisible bomb-rock glitch.</ref> | |||
In this creature's [[Piklopedia]] entry, [[Ultra-Bitter Spray|petrifying]] it just as it breaks free from another spray makes it possible to freeze it and its bomb-rock separately. | |||

* The Careening Dirigibugs bear a strange resemblance to the [[wikipedia:Eosapien|Eosapiens]] from the documentary "Alien Planet", and also from [[wikipedia: William Barlowe|William Barlowe's]] book, ''Expedition''. Both these creatures float using gas-filled sacks on their heads, effectively hunt down their targets, and also have generally similar body shapes. | |||
