In this game, the Smoky Progg has gained some new attacks. It may spit a glowing red projectile that creates a wave upon landing, which has the same instant-kill properties as the smoke surrounding the creature. It may also roar loudly to send the Pikmin and [[Oatchi]] into a panic. | In this game, the Smoky Progg has gained some new attacks.

The fight is fairly straightforward when the Smoky Progg is isolated. Throw Pikmin at its front, and prepare to call them back once they have been shaken off. Riding on Oatchi is an effective way to avoid the wave attack, as he can jump over it. However, if the creature roars, Oatchi will throw the leader off his back, making it hard to gather the panicking Pikmin quickly. For this reason, dismounting just before it does this attack is a good strategy, as is running out of the range of the panic effect or simply not using Oatchi at all. It is safe to [[Rush]] the front of this creature, which can be used to deal a large amount of damage quickly. As with most enemies, bomb rocks are an effective way to deal with this creature safely, if the player is comfortable with using a large amount of them. | In night expeditions, its egg can and should be destroyed before it hatches, as glow pellets will still be awarded by doing so and fighting it directly runs the risk of allowing other creatures an opportunity to attack an undefended Lumiknoll (which in some cases may even include a second Smoky Progg). This is not possible in caves, as it will hatch immediately upon arriving on its sublevel. | ||
