The '''Giant Breadbug''' | The '''Giant Breadbug''' is a boss in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. Unlike other [[Breadbug]]s, this one is large and shaped more almost perfectly cubical, looking like a whole loaf of bread, making it the largest species in the Breadbug family. It acts the same as normal Breadbugs, but is harder to damage by "rejection" from the pod. It is considered by many players to be the easiest [[Bosses|boss]] in the game (boss theme music is not even played, though an exclusive tune is played only in the specific cave sublevel). The more recognizable habitat is located on the final sublevel of the [[Glutton's Kitchen]] and consists of only two other Breadbugs, electric nodes, and [[Anode Beetle]]s. | ||
This creature is also found in the [[Snack Pit]] in [[Challenge Mode]]. | |||

To defeat this enemy, [[Olimar]] and [[Louie]] must wait until it latches onto a [[Treasure Hoard|treasure]] or defeated creature, such as the nearby Anode Beetles, or Breadbugs. Then, they must toss onto or swarm the treasure with as many [[Pikmin]] as possible (preferably twice as much as the minimum weight; this is of course made easier if [[Purple Pikmin]] are used) and watch them drag the helpless Giant Breadbug toward the [[Research Pod]]. However, an easier way exists, as when the Giant Breadbug is dragged, Olimar and Louie can use [[Ultra-bitter Spray]] on the center of it, then swarm it. Like with normal Breadbugs, there should be enough Pikmin on the treasure, and get pulled into the Giant Breadbug's den and die, when Olimar and Louie have enough Pikmin on the object, they must not throw anymore or they may make the Breadbug let go and look for something else to carry. Olimar and Louie can also throw Pikmin onto it. To make things simpler, Olimar and Louie must aim a clear shot when they are walking into something. | |||
When the enemy hits the pod, it loses almost half its health. With luck, an [[egg]] containing [[Mitite]]s can be beneficial here. Oilmar and Louie must toss a Purple Pikmin at the Mitites to defeat most of them instantly; the bodies only take one Pikmin to [[Carrying Order|carry]], so it is easier to drag the Giant Breadbug up to the pod if it attempts to steal one of these. | |||
| | |||
Purple Pikmin are also able to take about one-twentieth of a Giant Breadbug's health away by landing on its back, which is the only way to damage the boss if nothing is left to carry. If it has taken damage and it drags something into its nest, it becomes at full health again. | |||
