Firstly, take one of the captains near the Empress bulblax's rear end, try to get it as close as you can, so the larvae will try to go through the rock, if it overflows with larvae though, you'll have to kill them. Take the second captain and gather all your purple pikmin, and go where the boss is, move the first captain near the second and throw as many pikmin on the boss's head, calling them back when she's about to shake them off. The bulborb larvae will come over to your first captain, and if you throw the pikmin on her head when the Empress bulblax's larvae comes, she will squish them. | Firstly, take one of the captains near the Empress bulblax's rear end, try to get it as close as you can, so the larvae will try to go through the rock, if it overflows with larvae though, you'll have to kill them.
