Anonymous user brings up a good point. Every time I encounter one of these, I just swarm it and it's usually dead before it even gets the chance to buck. I can't even see the logic in throwing Pikmin. Should we just change the strategy? {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

  Has anyone noticed that in a new game you could only get an Armored Cannon Beetle Larva in the piklopedia if you kill one that's not buried?--[[User:Man-at-Legs888|Man-at-Legs888]] 21:33, November 26, 2009 (UTC)

:So yeah, it's true, and the same for Gatling Groinks on platforms.  Also, killing buried ACBLs/platform Groinks doesn't add to your kill total in the Piklopedia.  Slightly related, if you kill a Groink (not on a platform), let it revive and kill it again, you get two kills added to the Piklopedia.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}

:Man, that sucks, you know how many times I went down to the Glutton's Kitchen! I thought my kill total would be something like 140 but it turns it's only 100!

::I don't know, that's a good question. I think it should, because there is more danger involved in that than a straight attack.

==Possible Combination with ACB Page?==
==Possible Combination with ACB Page?==
Anyone think we should combine the the article with the Armored Cannon Beetle page? I don't think we should since it has its own Piklopedia entry. I'm just curious, if enough people think so, then we could make a subheading on the page stating "Larva" or something like that.[[File:3 Pikmin.png|35px]][[User:Pikmin1254|'''<span style="color:blue">Pikmin</span>''']][[File:P2 Hairy Bulborb Artwork.jpg|30px]][[User talk:Pikmin1254|'''<span style="color:orange">1254</span>''']][[File:Specialpikmin.jpg|35px]]

I was thinking the same thing.

== Stunning ==
I swear Purple Pikmin can't stun buried Cannon Beetles. Any one else think so? Could be included as trivia. <span style="border:2px dashed #FF0000;background-color:blue">[[File:121.jpg|30px]][[User:Loafy the Breadbug|<span title="come to my awesome userpage!" style = color:orange"> ''Loafy'' </span>]] [[User talk:Loafy the Breadbug|<span title=come!" style = "color:yellow"> ''the Breadbug''</span>]] [[File:121.jpg|30px]]</span>
:Well, I think a lot of enemies can't be stunned while they're in their "sleeping" state, like the ACBL is when it is buried. For instance, [[Emperor Bulblax]]es can't be stunned while underground (although they can be brutally hurt).

==Name???==
This dude is referred to as the Armored Cannon Larva in Pikmin 3. Once we can update all these pages to be up to date with Pikmin 3 and stuffz, we'll have to rename it. But then again, the Red Bulborb is referred to as the "Bulborb" in Pikmin 3, so I dunno.
[[User:AeroBlaze777|AeroBlaze777]] ([[User talk:AeroBlaze777|talk]])
:It's all a complicated mess. We could use the Pikmin 3 names, but like you said, it can sometimes lead to problems like "Bulborb". Plus there's stuff like Wollywog vs Wollyhop. When the page merge is done, this needs to be discussed between the community as a whole. — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 14:35, 10 August 2014 (EDT)
::Yeah, I get you. Personally, I find the name Armored Cannon '''Beetle'' Larva sorta redundant. So yeah, we'll need to discuss it at a later date. Once the move is done and stuffz. EDIT: I'm so not used to signing on talk pages. XD [[User:AeroBlaze777|AeroBlaze777]] ([[User talk:AeroBlaze777|talk]])
I think we need to leave it as armored cannon beetle larva if we left red bulborb as it is --[[User:Nvortex|Nvortex]] ([[User talk:Nvortex|talk]]) 19:12, 31 October 2015 (EDT)
:It's rough. We should try to always use the most recent US name as the "official" one. But for the case of Bulborbs, we should stick with "Red Bulborb" simply because "Bulborb" is incredibly ambiguous. You can look at an Orange Bulborb and say "This is a Bulborb", and you'd be correct. But you can't say "This is a Red Bulborb". At the very least, we should wait for Pikmin 4 and see if that'll help us decide this deal better. We should see some Red Bulborb action in just a few weeks or months... I hope. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 09:49, 1 November 2015 (EST)
== Creepy render... ==
I'm not sure why, but I really don't like the render in the infobox.
