[edit]
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? —Jimbo Jambo
- 'That work?--Prezintenden
Is it me, or do these things sound like pigs?
They sound just like blowhogs. It kind of bothers me that Nintendo didn't bother to give these new enemies a different sound. Portal-Kombat
- They don't sound exactly the same, the ACBL is wheezier... I'm ~LonelyTurret~ And I approve this message.
- I can't tell the difference at all. Well, the ACBL does do this extra sound when it's not attacking. Maybe that's the wheezing. And this is slightly off-topic, but I think that the cannon beetles in Pikmin 2 were a big step down from the original. Does anyone else want to see some Pikmin 1 enemies like the ACB, Goolix and Puffstool make a comeback in Pikmin 3? Portal-Kombat
any1 got a pic of the ACBL (and/or the lithopods) shooting a rock?Ysyty 23:17, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
This wiki is not just pics!! Snakeboss14
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?--Man-at-Legs888 21:33, November 26, 2009 (UTC)
Nope, never noticed anything of the sort. --Pikdude 14:16, November 27, 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.GP
Also if a buried Armored Cannon Beetle Larva kills pikmin it wont ad how much pikmin it killed in the piklopedia.It will only ad how much a not buried one killed.--Man-at-Legs888 15:54, December 1, 2009 (UTC)
- 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! Also, say an Armored Cannon Beetle rock hits an enemy and kills it, does it count as your total because I'm sure it does...--FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT!
Possible Combination with ACB Page?[edit]
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.Pikmin1254
- ...No.--Prezintenden
I was thinking the same thing. The real reason why I made this part of the discussion is just in case someone was thinking of doing that.Pikmin1254
...what[edit]
Blue/white ACBL? What's this?GP
- In two player VS mode, on one of those cave stages, there is a blue/white cannon beetle larva. Blue Ninjakoopa 19:18, February 7, 2010 (UTC)
I played Pikmin all my life and if there was a blue/white one I would of seen it buy now.Man-at-Legs888 21:27, February 7, 2010 (UTC)
- Greenpickle - I guess I might have just been seeing things; I could have sworn that there were bluish white ones. I've recently played Pikmin 2 and there indeed are no white/blue ACBL.
- Man at Legs - by* Blue Ninjakoopa 22:43, February 7, 2010 (UTC)
Oh thats how you spell it.Man-at-Legs888 23:32, February 7, 2010 (UTC)
Blue ninja koopa were you trying to anoy me by correcting my spelling? I can't believe I have to ask you that......Man-at-Legs888 06:03, February 8, 2010 (UTC)
- No such thing. Possibly a glitch in the game, or your TV has issues.Pikdude 23:40, February 11, 2010 (UTC)
Stunning[edit]
I swear Purple Pikmin can't stun buried Cannon Beetles. Any one else think so? Could be included as trivia. Loafy the Breadbug
- 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 Bulblaxes can't be stunned while underground (although they can be brutally hurt). {EspyoT} 09:00, 21 April 2011 (EDT)
Name???[edit]
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. 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. — {EspyoT} 14:35, 10 August 2014 (EDT)

I think we need to leave it as armored cannon beetle larva if we left red bulborb as it is --Nvortex (talk) 19:12, 31 October 2015 (EDT)
