[[File:King_Beeb.png|thumb|The King Beeb.]]'''King Beeb''' ({{j|ザコの王様|Zako no Ōsama|Small Fry King}}; known as '''Queen Baub''' in the European version) is the first miniboss encountered in [[Pikmin Adventure]]. It is a large [[Pikmin Adventure Enemies|Beeb ]] that is twice (or more) the size of the normal "large" variant.

The '''King Beeb''' ({{j|キングザコワラジ|Kingu Zako Waraji|King Small Fry Woodlouse}}; known as the '''Queen Baub''' in the European version of ''Pikmin Adventure'') is the second miniboss encountered in ''[[Pikmin Adventure]]'', first seen in both enemy and miniboss form in ''Boss of the Beebs''. It is a large [[Pikmin Adventure enemies#Creepy Beeb|Creepy Beeb]] that has yellow feet, blue flexible legs, and a blue and yellow antenna resembling the large Creepy Beeb. The primary differences between the King Beeb and the Creepy Beeb is that the Creepy Beeb has flatter, almost googly eyes while the King Beeb has far more spherical eyes like the [[Bladed Beeb]].

==Behavior==
[[File:PikAdv_KingBeeb.jpg|thumb|King Beeb being knocked onto his back during battle.]]
Upon noticing the player, the King Beeb will slowly wander towards them before flashing yellow and curl up into a ball. It will proceed to roll around the area for an extended amount of time, trying to crush the Mii Olimar and Pikmin players. After rolling around, the King Beeb can either stop rolling by landing on its feet, allowing it to move about, or end up on its back, unable to move for a bit.
 
==Attacks==
The King Beeb attacks identically to the [[Pikmin_Adventure_enemies#Creepy_Beeb|Creepy Beeb]], only on a much larger scale. Unlike Creepy Beebs, the King Beeb will not be weighed down by Pikmin. It will roll around the arena, trying to crush Olimar and the Pikmin.


==Strategy==
==Strategy==
The King Beeb rolls around faster and longer than the Creepy Beeb, so it is advised that players take advantage of their ability to jump by flicking the GamePad's screen or press {{button|wii|2}} on their Wiimote in order to avoid being crushed. Some arenas are shaped like an octogon, so running from corner-to-corner while it is rolling around is the best solution to avoid being crushed.

Sometimes, there will be bombs and rocks that can be grabbed. These are good to use against the King Beeb during its rolling attack. While it is possible to stun the King Beeb with a rock throw, there is also a chance that a successful rock throw will not stun it. After rolling the King Beeb will end up laying on its back trying to regain its composure, allowing for the Mii Olimar and Pikmin players to deal tons of damage without much risk of getting hurt themselves.
Sometimes, there will be bombs and rocks available. These are good to use against him during his rolling attack. However, they won't stun him like with most enemies, but if hit directly, he will redirect the direction he rolls in.
King Beeb's major design flaw is that he is just an enlarged Beeb, meaning his still shares their trait of having his entire body be a weakpoint. As long as he is not rolling, he will be completely vulnerable.


==Monita's notes==
After receiving enough damage, his body will crack and the battle will speed up. Even then, just follow the steps above and the battle will easily be one. Once defeated, his eyes will enlarge and he will collapse on the floor before exploding into coins, ''Nintendo Land's'' currency.
