Naturally, Red Pikmin are best to fight this creature due to their immunity to fire. Beat it as if it were a standard [[Bulborb|Red Bulborb]], by peppering its back with a group of 50 or so reds. Fiery Bulblaxes have high [[HP]] for a grub-dog and have a fierce shake to fend off Pikmin. An [[ultra-spicy spray]] may be desirable for killing it before it can shake off attackers. Swarming a sleeping Fiery Bulblax with 50 or more Red Pikmin can also kill it quickly, but this is riskier since not all Pikmin will latch on to the beast, leaving them more vulnerable. [[Ultra-bitter spray]]s are also effective, but it should be noted the Bulblax's fire continues even while the creature is petrified. | Naturally, Red Pikmin are best to fight this creature due to their immunity to fire.

It should be noted that, although Fiery Bulblaxes do not wake up until touched, they are more sensitive than other Bulborbs when returning to their homes, and can stop in their tracks if Pikmin or leaders enter their territory. This can earn you a little time if you attack a returning Fiery Bulblax just as it pauses to notice you. | It should be noted that, although Fiery Bulblaxes do not wake up until touched, they are more sensitive than other Bulborbs when returning to their homes, and can stop in their tracks if Pikmin or leaders enter their territory.

It is possible to kill a Fiery Bulblax with leaders, but without the [[Scorch Guard]] upgrade they are in overwhelming danger of getting burned. And even with that upgrade and the [[Rocket Fist]], the task takes so long that it isn't recommended unless you are in a [[cave]], without a time limit. But if you are to beat the Bulblax with just leaders, simply punch the creature and dodge its bites, as with other Grub-dogs. | It is possible to kill a Fiery Bulblax with leaders, but without the [[Scorch Guard]] upgrade they are in overwhelming danger of getting burned.

Similar to the Pikmin 2 Strategy, but you can instantly freeze it with the [[Ice Blast]] item. Then rush into the Bulblax. Even after the ice wears off, the Bulblax will stay extinguished. | |||
