With [[throw]]n Pikmin, manual [[HUD#Cursor|cursor]] aiming may be needed, but Winged Pikmin can [[charge]] the eyes instead of the body. [[Rock Pikmin]] deal good damage when thrown directly onto the eyes as well. [[Bomb rock]]s may be used to instantly take out one eye, or both at once, immediately flipping the creature onto its back. Alternately, if one is ingested by the creature, it will cause it to take a sufficient amount of damage and flip over. | With [[throw]]n Pikmin, manual [[HUD#Cursor|cursor]] aiming may be needed, but Winged Pikmin can [[charge]] the eyes instead of the body.

Winged Pikmin can take this mini-boss out in just a few seconds. Bring 100 of them out to fight it, preferably flowers, but the result shouldn't matter too much. Once the Bug-Eyed Crawmad is vulnerable, just lock onto one of the eyes and swarm it. The Winged Pikmin take out the eyes very quickly, and once one eye is down they will attack the other – either that or they will attack both at once. Once it flips over, don't do anything, as the Winged Pikmin will be above the body and will take that out very quickly too. This strategy becomes even more efficient when combined with an [[ultra-spicy spray]], given its improvement in attack power for Winged Pikmin. | Winged Pikmin can take this mini-boss out in just a few seconds.

When time is of importance (such as during [[Mission Mode]] or the [[Side Stories]]), a small group of 20 or more Winged Pikmin powered up by ultra-spicy spray can be [[Dismiss|dismissed]] near the mini-boss, and they should be able to defeat it on their own, allowing you to do something else in the meantime. | ||
