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.

While not officially introduced until ''Pikmin 4'', it shares many similarities with the Emperor Bulblax variants from {{p1}} and {{hp}}, with vegetation on its back being much more abundant, notably featuring {{w|Pteridium aquilinum|bracken}} fiddleheads rather than [[Vegetation#Blaxcaps_and_Bulborel|Blaxcaps and Bulborel]]s.

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. Individuals with over a hundred age rings have been discovered so far.
