A much simpler way to defeat the Mawdad quicker and with little trouble is to immediately run to the side as soon as the battle begins. The boss will charge foward only to catch nothing, and will then stop for a few seconds before crawling around again. During this time, quickly throw as many Rock Pikmin as you can at the tip of its tail, and it sould easily break off. This will aggrivate the Mawdad and make it climb up the wall. When  it comes back down to charge, move out of the way and quickly run behind it. Before it starts moving again, swarm all of your Red Pikmin on its tail. If enough grab onto its tail, the boss' health will rapidly drain and it can be killed with one hit from a Rock Pikmin as soon as it descends from the wall..

This is much easier in Mission Mode, as the Dodge Whistle powerup is in use. However, it is easily doable without said powerup


This strategy is most usefull during speedruns, as it can be used to defeat the boss in under half a minute.
