The method to attack it is to throw Pikmin at its non-metal parts, or its backside, as the front has a protective metal shield. Certainly the most effective strategy is to pummel it with heavy [[Purple Pikmin]], as each one carries a chance of stunning the creature, preventing it from fighting back. Once defeated, this stubborn beast will begin to regenerate, just as the Spotty Bulbear does, making it crucial to carry it to the [[Onion]], or [[Research Pod]] if underground. If you don't, it will [[revive]] and continue its attack. It is said that if it's tail were incapacitated, it would be incapable of attacking; in fact, if you throw your Pikmin on the tail, it will be unable to use its mortar, but will attempt to shake them off. | The method to attack it is to throw Pikmin at its non-metal parts, or its backside, as the front has a protective metal shield.

If used correctly and carefully, the Gatling Groink's cannon can be used to kill other monsters and even airborne monsters. To do this, have the Gatling Groink fire at you while standing near an enemy, and for airborne enemies, stand directly below the enemy and wait for the Groink to fire. If you manage to do this correctly, it should be able to kill most large ground enemies in 3-4 shots. This does not work to kill the Gatling Groink itself. | |||

In [[Challenge Mode]]'s [[Secret Testing Range]], if a Gatling Groink is allowed to regenerate after it dies, it will sometimes come back as a sped up version that walks and shoots 4 times faster than it should. | In [[Challenge Mode]]'s [[Secret Testing Range]], if a Gatling Groink is allowed to regenerate after it dies, it will sometimes come back as a sped up version that walks and shoots 4 times faster than it should. | ||
