Recommended Tactics

When the mission starts, you already have a fairly large squad of Pikmin. Toss each of your extra crew members onto a cluster of sprouts, then use your squad to attack one of the Quaggled Mireclops’ feet. When the creature collapses, gather your squad and throw your Rock Pikmin into the Mireclops Crystal.

When the Mireclops Crystal shatters, gather your Pikmin and attack one of the creature’s feet. When the creature collapses, run onto its back. Lock onto the Quaggled Mireclops and send your Pikmin charging in.

When the Quaggled Mireclops recovers, gather your Pikmin and restart the process. As you attack the creature’s feet, use the whistle to rescue any Red Pikmin or Rock Pikmin that fall into the water. When the creature collapses, run onto its back and have your Pikmin charge in to attack. Repeat the process until you defeat the creature.

Use the same basic tactics when you’re playing with a partner. As one player uses the main squad to attack the Quaggled Mireclops, the other player should pluck the sprouts scattered around the enclosure.
