Fiery Bulblaxes are rather odd, grotesque looking creatures. Their body parts appear to be melting away from its body's intense heat waves, and more strangely, one of their eyes is smaller than the other. Its fiery aura is caused by the glands and oils on this creature's body that result in a chemical reaction, which causes fire to ignite on its hide. Only Red Pikmin can withstand the blaze of this creature's body. However, if lured to water, the flame will go out, making it a prime target for Blue Pikmin, it would be wise if doing so that you would want to use a spray to avoid losing any Pikmin since this grub-dog is more aggresive. There are three in Cavern of Chaos's Sublevel 2.
As a side note, your Pikmin may get stuck under the torso of this creature when they carry it, if that happens, call them and try dismissing them to pick it up.
Notes
Olimar's Notes
Bodily excretions of a highly flammable waxy substance interact with the cell structure of this grub-dog's skin, causing a chemical reaction that produces extremely high temperatures. The skin benefits from a spongy cell structure that diffuses the surface heat, protecting the creature's inner organs. Due to the astonishing amount of heat produced by this beast, it should be observed with great caution.
Louie's Notes
No stove? No problem! This sizzling beast practically cooks itself. Remember to thoroughly extinguish the steaks prior to eating.
How to Kill
Obviously, red Pikmin are desirable due to the flames. Beat it the way you'd beat a standard Red Bulborb, by peppering its back with reds. Fiery Bulblaxes have high health for a grub-dog and can sometimes attack after shaking your Pikmin off. Fiery Bulblaxes can also eat pikmin much faster than a normal Bulborb can. An Ultra-Spicy Spray may be desirable for killing it effectively and without danger.
However, sometimes a Fiery Bulblax must be fought with blue Pikmin, such as the lone one at the Valley of Repose. To kill it here, lure it into the water. The flames on its back will go out. Since repeatedly throwing blues at it puts them at high risk of being eaten, simply use an Ultra-Bitter Spray and beat it. Note that spraying a Fiery Bulblax that has not been extinguished will still have flames coming out of its back.
A final means of defeating this beast uses the power of purple Pikmin: throw many on together, and each will deal some damage before bursting into flames. Save them and, while the Fiery Bulblax is still stunned, attack again. This eliminates the need for water or red Pikmin.
