[[Throw]]ing Pikmin onto it from a distance is often more effective to avoid this than [[Group move|swarming]], unless Olimar is accompanied by a large group of Pikmin. Attacking from behind is also advantageous. [[Purple Pikmin]] allow for an especially easy defeat. One must try to be careful; some Pikmin being planted is inevitable, but if ''all'' (not possible in ''Pikmin 2'') of your army is planted, then it is likely that you will have to either resort to throwing and calling back two or three salvaged Pikmin, as the Mamuta will attempt to attack you if you pluck any more than that; or, you could be forced to use the below strategy, which is marginally simpler and much harder. | ||

Although very difficult, Olimar can defeat the Mamuta by attacking it from behind. However, it is recommended that Olimar uses Pikmin, as attacking the Mamuta by himself is time-consuming. In ''Pikmin 2'', this is less of a problem due to Mamutas only appearing in caves with no time limit. Also, the Mamutas in both games cause major damage to [[Olimar]] and, at least in the first game, can land multiple hits on him while he is incapacitated. This can damage him even to the point of death. Inexperienced players, beware | Although very difficult, Olimar can defeat the Mamuta by attacking it from behind.

* Mamutas will try to pound [[Glow Pikmin]] into the ground even though that type is impossible to bury: the Glow Pikmin will only stay embedded for a few seconds before popping up, and unlike other Pikmin types, they do not gain flowers from the Mamuta's burial. This interaction can be observed in the first sublevel of [[The Mud Pit]]. | * Mamutas will try to pound [[Glow Pikmin]] into the ground even though that type is impossible to bury: the Glow Pikmin will only stay embedded for a few seconds before popping up, and unlike other Pikmin types, they do not gain flowers from the Mamuta's burial.

** Also in the same sublevel, if a Mamuta pounds Pikmin onto a hard surface (in this case, frozen [[mud]]), this will knock back the Pikmin instead of killing it. | ** Also in the same sublevel, if a Mamuta pounds Pikmin onto a hard surface (in this case, frozen [[mud]]), this will knock back the Pikmin instead of killing it. | ||
