The controls when dealing with bomb-rock-yielding Yellow Pikmin are a bit complex. Pikmin holding bomb-rocks will not interact with objects when the C-stick is used. Throwing Pikmin with bomb-rocks will make them idle, but ready to attack. If an enemy is close, they'll step back and throw the bomb-rock at it. When called back using the [[whistle]], they'll drop and activate the bomb, and run towards Olimar. If, however, one wants the Pikmin to join the party without dropping and activating the bomb, one should touch them directly. When called to the yellow [[Onion]], Pikmin yielding bomb-rocks will drop them without detonating them. When using X to dismiss the Pikmin, those carrying bomb-rocks will stay in a different group from the other Yellow Pikmin. When called back in any way after being dismissed with X, they'll keep their bomb-rock and join the group. In the [[New Play Control! Pikmin|''New Play Control!'']] version, switching to a different Pikmin while holding one (i.e. pressing {{button|wii|B}} when holding {{button|wii|A}}) will treat Yellow Pikmin and bomb-rock-holding Yellow Pikmin differently.

Curiously, when a Yellow Pikmin throws a bomb-rock, it'll warn nearby Pikmin to rejoin Olimar in order to stay away from the blast. However, if one throws a bomb-rock-holding Pikmin next to a group of idle Yellow Pikmin, and calls the bomb-rock-yielding Pikmin back with the whistle (i.e. make it drop the bomb-rock), it will not call the idle Yellow Pikmin.
