 *Throwing a Pikmin at a [[Pellet Posy]]'s pellet will make it drop it after just one attack in ''Pikmin'', or make it drop instantly from ''Pikmin 2'' onwards (this only works for 1 pellets in ''Pikmin 3'' and ''Pikmin 4'').
 *The following enemies behave differently when a Pikmin is thrown directly at them:
+**[[Albino Dwarf Bulborb]]: landing a Pikmin on its back deals half of its base health.
 **[[Anode Beetle]]: makes it flip and expose its weak point.
 **[[Breadbug]] and [[Giant Breadbug]]: [[Health|damages]] it and make it temporarily drop its object. For the Giant Breadbug, this is only true with Purple Pikmin.
-**[[Dwarf Bulborb]], [[Snow Bulborb]] and [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]]: if the Pikmin is thrown onto the creature's back, it will die instantly.
+**[[Dwarf Bulborb]], [[Snow Bulborb]] and [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]]: if the Pikmin is thrown onto the creature's back, it will die instantly. However, in ''Pikmin 4'', 2 Pikmin are needed to be thrown on the back of the ''Dwarf Orange Bulborb'' to defeat it.
-**[[Dwarf Bulbear]]: In the first game, throwing a Pikmin onto the creature's back deals a large amount of damage to it, but doesn't kill it; from ''Pikmin 2'' onward (and in the ''New Play Control!'' and Nintendo Switch versions of the first game), it kills them instantly.
+**[[Dwarf Bulbear]]: In the first game, throwing a Pikmin onto the creature's back deals a large amount of damage to it, but doesn't kill it; from ''Pikmin 2'' onward (and in the ''New Play Control!'' and Nintendo Switch versions of the first game), it kills them instantly. In ''Pikmin 4'', landing a Pikmin on its back deals one third of it's base health.
+**[[Dwarf Frosty Bulborb]]: throwing an [[Ice Pikmin]] or [[Glow Pikmin]] onto the creature's back will kill it instantly, other Pikmin types will be [[Frozen Hazard|frozen]].
 **[[Honeywisp]]: makes it drop its [[nectar]] (in the first game) or [[egg]] (in the second and fourth games) instantly and fly away.
 **[[Iridescent Flint Beetle]], [[Iridescent Glint Beetle]] and [[Doodlebug]]: makes it flip in the air and drop some spoils.
+**[[Moldy Dwarf Bulborb]] and [[Moldy Slooch]]: landing any type of Pikmin on the 'fungal mass' deals a sizeable chunk of damage.
 **[[Shearwig]]: if airborne, the creature dies right away in the first two games. in ''Pikmin 3'' and ''Pikmin 4'', it instead reduces them to ⅓ health and knocks them to the ground.
+**[[Skitter Leaf]] and [[Desiccated Skitter Leaf]]: throwing a Pikmin onto either one of the creature's back will instantly kill them.
 **[[Unmarked Spectralids]], [[Red Spectralids]], [[White Spectralids]], and [[Yellow Spectralids]]: the creature instantly dies. Interestingly, Unmarked Spectralids die in one hit even though they have the same amount of health as a Dwarf Bulborb.
 *When a [[Blue Pikmin]] is thrown at the [[Goolix]]'s larger core, while the creature is stretched, the two cores will slam against one another, and all Pikmin attacking the smaller core will scatter around.
-*A Pikmin that is thrown at the [[Armored Cannon Beetle]]'s blowhole while it's sucking in air will become trapped in it and make it overheat, exposing its weak point. After the Armored Cannon Beetle covers its weak point again, the Pikmin will come out unharmed.
+*A Pikmin that is thrown at the [[Armored Cannon Beetle]] or [[Horned Cannon Beetle]]'s blowhole while it's sucking in air will become trapped in it and make it overheat, exposing its weak point. After the Cannon Beetle covers its weak point again, the Pikmin will come out unharmed.
 *The shockwaves made by a Purple Pikmin landing after being thrown will make a [[Waterwraith]] temporarily vulnerable.
 *A thrown Purple Pikmin can destroy [[Armored Cannon Larva|Armored Cannon Beetle Larva]] and [[Decorated Cannon Beetle Larva]] rocks in ''Pikmin 2''.
 *In {{p3}}, Rock Pikmin thrown at [[crystal]]s deal more damage to them than just running into or charging at them. This is no longer the case in {{p3d}}, where Rock Pikmin attacking or charging crystals deals the same amount of damage as being thrown at them.
 *In ''Pikmin 3'', any kind of Pikmin thrown at a [[Grub-dog family|grub-dog]]'s eyes will cause it to recoil and spit out any Pikmin it may have started to eat.
+*When Pikmin are thrown onto the [[Crusted Rumpup]] or [[Ancient Sirehound]]'s tail, it stuns them which exposes its weak point on the tip of the tail (Crusted Rumpup) or its stomach (Ancient Sirehound).
