'''Careening Dirigibugs''' are extremely strange creatures which don't appear to be native to the region in which they're seen. Colorful balloon-like appendages allow them to drift gracefully around the arena. 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. Dirigibugs can be defeated in the same manner as [[Scarpanid]]s and other flying enemies: rapidly throw [[Pikmin]] onto it while in the air (one [[Purple Pikmin]] will work just as well), then swarm it when it falls. | |||
These beasts are only found underground, which includes caves, [[Challenge Mode]] and a single [[:Category:2-player locations|2-Player stage]], [[Hostile Territory]]. | |||

Approach from behind and throw Pikmin, preferably yellow, aiming at the balloons. | |||
If they hit the body, it can easily shake them off. [[Ultra-bitter spray]] is recommended. If it throws a bomb, then wait until it's about to go off, then down the bug, and the bomb will hurt it. This can be tricky, as well as risky. | |||
An alternative strategy is to force the Careening Dirgibug to throw a bomb at a captain. Immediately after it goes off, rush in with the Pikmin. The beast will either not have produced a new bomb in time, or it will relinquish it. If it lands near the Pikmin, back off and try again. | |||

A Careening Dirigibug trophy can be unlocked in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Interestingly, the trophy description details that Careening Dirigibugs occasionally throw dud bomb rocks. | |||
