The '''Fiery Bulblax''' | The '''Fiery Bulblax''' is a fairly rare enemy found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. Its body parts appear to be melting away from its body's intense heat waves, and more strangely, one of its eyes is smaller than the other. Its fiery aura is caused by the glands and oils on this creature's body that result in a chemical reaction, which causes fire to ignite on its hide. Only [[Red Pikmin]] can withstand the blaze of this creature's body. However, if lured to water, the flame will go out, making it a prime target for Blue Pikmin. When found in the Valley Of Repose, if it goes into the water, it will probably leave to go back to where it was when it was sleeping, and will sometimes ignore any Pikmin attacking it. It is recommended to use a [[spray]] against this enemy, because it's more aggressive than other members of its family. | ||
Due to the Bulblax's curtain-esque shape, Pikmin may get stuck under its body when they carry it. If that happens, call them and try dismissing them to pick it back up. As well as sharing the name with it, the Fiery Bulblax's melted features make it resemble the Emperor Bulblax, despite being the same size and having the same attack strategy as the smaller members of the the Grub-Dog species. Also, this is one of the few members of the grub-dog family without a dwarf that replicates it. | |||

== | ==Killing Strategy== | ||
Obviously, Red Pikmin are desirable due to their resistance of the flames emitted from the Fiery Bulbax's abdomen. Defeat it as if it were a standard [[Red Bulborb]], by peppering its back with reds. Fiery Bulblaxes have high health for a grub-dog and can sometimes attack after shaking Pikmin off. Fiery Bulblaxes can also eat Pikmin much faster than a normal Bulborb can. An [[Ultra-spicy Spray]] may be desirable for killing it effectively and without danger. | |||
However, sometimes a Fiery Bulblax must be fought with Blue Pikmin, such as the lone one at the [[Valley of Repose]]. To kill it here, lure it into the water. The flames on its back will go out, but it will soon realize this, turn around, and head for dry land. During that time its primary urge will be to leave the water and re-ignite, so in this short space of time Pikmin will be safe from attack. Since repeatedly throwing blues at it puts them at high risk of being eaten, simply use an [[Ultra-bitter Spray]] and beat it. Note that spraying a Fiery Bulblax that has not been extinguished will still have flames coming out of its back. | |||
A more risky way of defeating this creature is to throw many [[Purple Pikmin]] at it, and each will deal some damage before bursting into flames. Save them and, while the Fiery Bulblax is still stunned, attack again. This eliminates the need for Blue or Red Pikmin. | |||
