Take a decent-sized group of Pikmin (preferably Red Pikmin or Bulbmin) and run up to the Dweevil. You should try to position yourself to where the Dweevil will try to turn to. Throw your Pikmin as fast as possible onto the Dweevil while it's still turning, and you should be able to kill it before it can get agitated. If it does attack, make sure no Pikmin are left underneath the creature, to avoid being set ablaze. Alternatively, you could throw a few Purple Pikmin at it, making sure the Pikmin will be able to land on the Dweevil. With four or five Purples, you should be able to kill it without any trouble, especially because Purples always stun Dweevils.
===Pikmin===
It's generally safest to attack a Fiery Dweevil with [[Red Pikmin]] or alternatively [[Bulbmin]]. However, the Dweevil itself is frail enough that, in practice, virtually any kind of squad can quickly kill one. If you are not using fire-immune Pikmin, make sure to keep your whistle at the ready in case it gets an attack off.


Another strategy is to use [[leader]]s, which is ultimately safer. Run up to it and attack it until it starts glowing. If the [[Scorch Guard]] has already been acquired, keep attacking; if not, run away before it attacks, then run back when the flames extinguish and continue the assault.
[[Purple Pikmin]] in particular are an incredibly effective option; if they land near the Dweevil, they are guaranteed to stun it, and if they happen to stomp directly on their head, they will inflict massive damage, almost instantly killing it. [[Rock Pikmin]] can also kill one extremely quickly with good aim.
 
===Leaders===
Simply run up to the Dweevil and start punching. When it prepares to attack, run away, unless you are upgraded with the [[Scorch Guard]], in which case, keep attacking. Even without the [[Rocket Fist]], the Dweevil should go down very quickly.
 
[[Oatchi]] can kill one extremely quickly, even if his [[Oatchi#Chomp|Chomp]] skill hasn't been trained very much. If his [[Oatchi#Rush]] skill has been sufficiently upgraded, he can bowl over it for an instant kill. Be careful if he does not have his {{oatchi|Scorch Guard}} though.
