Empress Bulblax: Difference between revisions

In the final cave of the game, [[Cavern for a King]], an Empress Bulblax is encountered on one of the deeper floors, and is fought in a square arena exactly as large as the Bulblax, necessitating the constant use of [[geyser]]s to dodge its attacks, as well as having to contend with falling [[boulder]]s and [[Bulborb Larva]]e. This is the trickiest and toughest fight against it in the entire franchise if played as expected, particularly since it is unlikely that the player will have access to Rock Pikmin during the encounter. It should be noted that there is an exit located at the rear-end of the arena, which can allow for an easy escape without having to deal with the typically tricky geyser timing. The player can attack it from the rear with a rush while mounted on [[Oatchi]], recall their Pikmin before it rolls, and simply exit the arena. This can take some time, but is considerably more reliable than other strategies. or leave the sublevel and return with 100 [[Rock Pikmin]] and rush or throw them at the Bulblax. if you worry that [[Rock Pikmin]] would get eaten by the [[Bulborb Larva]] that fall after [[Empress Bulblax]] hits a wall, [[Empress Bulblax]] might crush her own children by rolling over, or get your character in the part of the arena which have the [[Rock Pikmin]] and attack the [[Bulborb Larva]]. you should have all the [[Gear]] that keep you alive since you would be at the end of the main story so getting crushed won't be very serious.
