Flaming Pikibug is the second special bugsnax in the Pikmin + Bugsnax expansion.
Description[]
SCANNER: "Better not throw this Pikibug into water, or anything watery..."
BEFFICA: "Um, wow, and…yeah…I love his hair… maybe?"
Appaerance[]
Flaming Pikibug is a little red man with a long nose and a straight stem that ends in a flame.
Strategy[]
Like all Pikibugs, look for a stem with a flame and collect it with the Bug Net. It will obviously follow you and color the onion red. He is resistant to fire and very strong, infected is useful in several puzzles to access the boss. Its flame works like the one on Charmander's (the Pokemon) tail: if it is brought into a pool of water, the flame goes out and it disappears instantly. This is why he is afraid of Aquatic Pikibug, even though it can't do anything to him.
Trivia[]
- Although this is the first Pikmin found in the saga, it is found here second.
