The Trackonator (オッカケバクダン?, lit.: "Chase bomb") is a pack item in Pikmin 4, which follows enemies and then explodes. They can be purchased from Russ or found in the Mystery Capsule's roulette wheel during Dandori Battles. A Trackonator will start detonating as soon as it lands on solid ground and can home in on an enemy before it explodes. It cannot home in on Pikmin outside of Dandori Battles. If a Trackonator is thrown into a Candypop Bud, or if an enemy trying to eat it was interrupted, it will become inactive and not home in on any other enemies. In this state it is able to be picked up by Pikmin and the Rescue Officer. Unlike Bomb Rocks, they will not roll on slopes, which is useful for some glitches.

Notes

Lab description

A bomb that always tracks its prey and never loses it. In the wild, I'd much rather be the chaser than the chasee.

Pack description

A tracking bomb that won't let its target or prey get away. Creatures rarely escape this bomb, even if they run around.

Getting free prototype

This bomb can automatically track and chase its target! Perfect for use on particularly fast creatures.

Gameplay Guide

The Trackonator automatically chases after its prey once found. If there are no targets in the vicinity, it will explode on the spot.
