While combat can be as simple as [[throw]]ing or [[charging]] Pikmin at the beast until it does, there are a few tactics that players can make use of to minimize casualties and get the task done faster. Naturally, basic tactics include not submitting Pikmin to [[hazard]]s they are vulnerable to, and not going all-out when the enemy is doing something dangerous.

As described [[#Enemy patterns|above]], most enemies tend to perform specific things at specific times. A player that is savvy of these actions is better prepared to deal with them, and is at a lower risk of losing Pikmin or leaders. On top of that, expert players can predict and even bait the enemy into performing specific actions so they can optimally punish them.
