The '''Sovereign Bulblax''' ({{j|コウテイデメマダラ|Kōtei Deme Madara|Emperor Spotted Bug-eye}}) is a [[boss]] found in {{p4}}. This creature is an [[Emperor Bulblax]] in advanced age and shares many of the same attacks as the younger version of the species, such as a [[Panic|loud roar]]. One important difference apart from its size and health is its incredible jumping ability, far greater than that of its younger counterpart. Similar to the [[Empress Bulblax]], the Sovereign Bulblax's method of attack will change slightly depending on where it is fought. In [[Giant's Hearth]] and [[Serene Shores]] the Sovereign Bulblax will not drop boulders when it falls down after jumping. However, when encountered in [[Cave|Caves]] or through the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 4)|Piklopedia]] the Sovereign Bulblax will spawn 7 falling [[Boulder|boulders]] after coming down from a high jump. | The '''Sovereign Bulblax''' ({{j|コウテイデメマダラ|Kōtei Deme Madara|Emperor Spotted Bug-eye}}) is a [[boss]] found in {{p4}}.

The Sovereign Bulblax will hide underground until something disturbs | The Sovereign Bulblax will hide underground until something disturbs them, where they will emerge throwing everything nearby off of it. They will then start to attack the player and their Pikmin using a variety of attacks. The Bulblax will usually use the standard tongue lash, stunning the leader and Oatchi, and capturing Pikmin, who are then eaten. When it has been damaged enough, the Bulblax roars, causing all Pikmin and [[Oatchi]] to [[Panic]]. If the Bulblax has half hp, it will start to charge a jump, with Collin warning the player to run away. This jump is not as accurate as it is in ''Pikmin'', but it can still crush without limit. When underground or encountered in the Piklopedia, boulders will fall soon after it lands. When under attack, the Bulblax will jump in place. This will shake off any Pikmin on the face, and crush any underneath. When the player leaves the Sovereign Bulblax's territory, it will patrol the area and will not retreat underground. | ||

To determine the age of any given specimen, you can count the rings of hide calcified in the form of a carapace. One ring forms roughly every year the creature lives.
