If you want to talk about it in a gameplay way its because its not a final boss anymore so obviously if they make him a mid boss and put multiple ones at the same place it has to be weaker than the final boss of pikmin 1 And if you want to talk about it in the lore i guess pikmin 2 bulblaxes are just younger version of the final boss of pikmin 1
@@pote2frouifruite81thats crazy, now that we have pikmin 4, its pretty much confirmed that your absolutely right! This one is harder than the ones in pikmin 2 because its lived for far more years
This guy wiped out like 200 of my pikmin, I survived on day 30 with 1 dot of time left and 77 pikmin. This vidya gave me the idea to throw out 1 to bait him into trying to lick it, thanks
I passed this boss using only 8 pikmin, if your pikmin pool is small enough no matter what he does he will never catch them with his tongue and jumping is too slow so moving them from danger is simplyfied
@@jollama If you’ve never played before it’s normal to take at least 20 days. Most people see “okay I have 30 days and 30 parts so I’ll just try to average one a day.” They also didnt say anything about how many days they reset, if that’s without any that’s actually really impressive.
I was doing so well my second playthrough of the game. First one I rage reset because I was doing beyond bad. I get to this guy on day 29, almost beat him but then he killed me. Next day, he wipes out the entirety of all 3 of my Pikmin types. This guy is unbelievably hard I can't do it. I can't keep enough pikmin alive through that phase when he hits 1/3 hp left where he jumps around and kills everything. I don't know how I can get this guy
When he kills a bunch of pikmin I just start the day over and try again. I beat it a long time ago when I was little but now that I'm playing it again I can't lol
White Pikmin are not immune to poison, though. Purple/white aren't in story mode, which is what I meant. Also, what are you doing on this years-old thread?
I didn't know how to switch pikmin in emulator version, so I just sacrificed bomb pikmin and best him with an army of yellows in the last quarter of my last day.
Does anyone know that in pikmin 2 his high jump is replaced by a roar that scares pikmin and can bring other enemies to check out what the noise is all about?
i got him down to a sliver of health twice but then the day ended and then i said fuck this i am going to just stop, look up the ending, and play pikmin 2
Makes sense since the pikmin didnt have a chance to beat him before olimar came. He was probably very old and experienced in fending things off. The other emperors were probably younger and easier to take down
@@Nonikt huh, good point... Y'know, honestly, this comment was partially me wishing he had appeared in Pikmin 3 as a really tough side boss or something. Maybe in Pikmin 4? When it finally comes out in St. Never's Day, that is...
Pikmin 1 was really easy but with its enemies having a zero kill cap is what makes it crazy one misplay makes all ur piks die unlike all the others who’s enemies all have a cap amount of pikmin then can kill with one attack animation
