The [[controls]] when dealing with bomb rock-yielding Yellow Pikmin are a bit complex, and varies slightly depending on the console.

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 Olimar 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 idlers.

In the [[2-Player Battle]] stage [[Hostile Territory]], bomb-rocks can be picked up and thrown by a [[leader]], which can be used to defeat enemies, or deal a serious blow to the opponent's Pikmin count. To perform this, one merely needs to run into a bomb rock for around one second, at which point it'll be picked up. Players can then press {{button|gc|a|wii|a}} to throw it (the distance is around twice as far as the reach of the GameCube game's cursor), or {{button|gc|b|wii|b}} to drop it in place. In both cases, the bomb rock will be activated. In every other point in the game where bomb rocks are found, they can be activated by being attacked, provoked (in the case of Volatile Dweevils), or dropped (in the case of Careening Dirigibugs).
