The '''King Beeb''' ({{j|キングザコワラジ|Kingu Zako Waraji|King [[Pikmin Adventure enemies#Creepy Beeb|Small Fry Woodlouse]]}}; known as the '''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]].


==Monita's notes==
==Behavior==
{{US}}: {{transcript|This royal Beeb of all Beebs curls into a ball and rolls around. You'd think its eyes would get in the way when it rolls, but no, it just pulls them in.}}
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.


{{EU}}: {{transcript|This big, bad Baub blasts light, curls into a ball and rolls around. ◆ You'd think its eyes would get in the way when it rolls, but no, it just pulls them in.}}
==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.


==Attacks==
==Monita's notes==
The King Beeb attacks in a nearly identical manner 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.

Upon being dropped onto the stage, King Beeb will slowly wander about before flashing yellow and curling up into a ball. King Beeb rolls around faster than normal Beebs so it is advised that the player takes advantage of their ability to jump by flicking the GamePad's screen in order to avoid being crushed. The stage is 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 available. These are good to use against it during its rolling attack. However, they won't stun it like with most enemies, but if hit directly, it will redirect the direction it rolls in.

King Beeb's major design flaw is that it is just an enlarged Creepy Beeb, meaning it still shares their trait of having its entire body be a weakpoint. As long as it is not rolling, it will be completely vulnerable.

After receiving enough damage, its 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, its eyes will enlarge and it will collapse on the floor before exploding into coins, ''Nintendo Land's'' currency.

The first two small King Beebs in ''Boss of the Beebs'' are mistakenly referred to as [[Pikmin Adventure enemies#Bombardier Beeb|Bombardier Beebs]] in the [[Prima Games]] ''Nintendo Land'' guide.
