It is the largest member of the [[Dweevil]] family, and arguably one of the largest creatures in the game. But unlike other Dweevils, its only natural attack is to lash out with its pincers, which does no damage and is only an attempt to get [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] off it; the creature is only really dangerous because of the weapons it carries. | ||

When they approach the mound, however, it reveals itself as the head of the Titan Dweevil. The enormous monster then proceeds to attack you, triggering the boss fight. Louie is found on top of it the first time you battle it; the [[Sales Pitch]] on [[King of Bugs|him as a treasure]] suggests that he may somehow be in control of the Dweevil (although if you go back in the dungeon and fight the boss after rescuing Louie, it will still attack you if you didn't take the weapons last time). | ||

It is interesting to note that each of these weapons causes different versions of the music to play when it is used by the Titan Dweevil. Each weapon's effect (except for the Shock Therapist, which uses electricity to attack) can be dispelled by Olimar/President's Whistle.

Each weapon's effect (except for the Shock Therapist, which uses electricity to attack) can be dispelled by Olimar/President's Whistle. The Titan Dweevil will attempt to attack if you try to carry the treasures away before it's defeated. If you knocked all the weapons off but haven't defeated it, it will flail it's arms, knocking off Pikmin, potentially removing their flowers. NOTE: You cannot find [[Bulbmin]] in the [[Dream Den]], so therefore you cannot use them against the Titan Dweevil unless you use a hack. | ||
Right before the Titan Dweevil is about to attack, | Right before the Titan Dweevil is about to attack, it changes the same color as the type of Pikmin that is immune to the weapon. For example, if the Titan Dweevil is about to use the Shock Therapist, it will turn yellow. (The only exception is the Comedy Bomb. In that case, the Titan Dweevil will turn purple.) This tip can be useful in [[zero-death run]]s. | ||

[[File:Flare Cannon.jpg|thumb|150px|x100px|The Flare Cannon as seen in the [[Treasure Hoard]].]] The Flare Cannon is the easiest weapon to avoid; it simply sprays flames in a set radius, as it rotates back and forth in about a 180-degree motion, but takes the most amount of hits to come off. When this weapon is damaged, it will spray further than before, and in a 210-degree motion. This fire is irksome in the fact that it is capable of knocking down the captains even if the player has the [[Scorch Guard]], stopping the player from saving [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]]. The [[Red Pikmin]] are immune to this weapon. Along with every other item (except for Louie) this is worth 1000 pokos. | [[File:Flare Cannon.jpg|thumb|150px|x100px|The Flare Cannon as seen in the [[Treasure Hoard]].]] The Flare Cannon is the easiest weapon to avoid; it simply sprays flames in a set radius, as it rotates back and forth in about a 180-degree motion, but takes the most amount of hits to come off.
