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.

In ''Pikmin 2'''s [[2-Player mode]] stage [[Hostile Territory]], bomb-rocks can be picked up and thrown by a captain, 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, and then press {{button|gcn|A|wii|A}} to throw it (the distance is around twice as far as the reach of the cursor), or {{button|gcn|B|wii|B}} to drop it. 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).

In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', the bomb-rocks return, now able to be held by Pikmin once more. They can be found inside eggs, Dirt Mounds, or in Mission Mode and Bingo Battle, Medusal Slurkers. All Pikmin types can now carry bomb-rocks. They can once again be used to destroy stone walls and defeat enemies. This time, all Pikmin are capable of carrying them. Controlling the way Pikmin behave with the bomb-rocks is much simpler in this game - the Pikmin will always keep hold of its bomb until it is thrown, in which case it will drop the rock exactly where it landed. When dismissed, any bomb-rock wielding Pikmin will separate from the group of their color, making it easier to get only the bombers.
