The Sovereign Bulblax will hide underground until something disturbs them, where they will emerge throwing everything nearby off of it. They will then start to attack the player and their Pikmin using a variety of attacks. The Bulblax will usually use the standard tongue lash, stunning the leader and Oatchi, and capturing Pikmin, who are then eaten. When it has been damaged enough, the Bulblax roars, causing all Pikmin and [[Oatchi]] to [[Panic]]. If the Bulblax has half hp, it will start to charge a jump, with Collin warning the player to run away. This jump is not as accurate as it is in ''Pikmin'', but it can still crush without limit. When underground or encountered in the Piklopedia, boulders will fall soon after it lands. When under attack, the Bulblax will jump in place. This will shake off any Pikmin on the face, and crush any underneath. When the player leaves the Sovereign Bulblax's territory, it will patrol the area and will not retreat underground.
The Sovereign Bulblax will hide underground until something disturbs it, where it will suddenly emerge, knocking back any leaders or Pikmin who are too close. It will then start to attack leaders and their Pikmin using a variety of attacks.  
 
The Sovereign Bulblax's standard attack is to lash out its tongue and sweep it left to right, stunning the leader and Oatchi, and capturing Pikmin, who are then eaten. It may also roar, causing Oatchi and nearby Pikmin to [[panic]]. When the Sovereign Bulblax is lower on health, it will begin to perform large leaps. A shadow warns of its landing location, and any Pikmin caught underneath will be [[crush|crushed]]. When encountered underground or in the Piklopedia, boulders will fall soon after it lands. When under attack, the Sovereign Bulblax will jump in place. This will shake off any Pikmin on the face and crush any underneath.  
 
When there are no targets in the Sovereign Bulblax's territory, it will patrol the area and will not retreat underground.
