In Pikmin Galaxy Adventure
Bomb Rock Pikmin appear in Pikmin Galaxy Adventure, looking exactly as they do in Pikmin: Global Breakdown. In this game, every Pikmin can pick up small bomb rocks, but only Bomb rock Pikmin and Yellow Pikmin can actually carry them. Any other Pikmin will take a bomb rock they are holding to the ship for storage.

In Pikmin: The Dawn of Petals
Bomb Rock Pikmin appear in Pikmin: The Dawn of Petals, where they resemble bomb rocks. They do not attack their targets normally, as they explode instead of hitting them with their stems. They primarily target enemies with high health and very dangerous enemies. However, this causes the magma inside to stop flowing and cool down to rock for one-and-a-half minutes. During this time, Bomb Rock Pikmin attack in a similar manner to Rock Pikmin in that time, and once this time has elapsed they can explode again. Their explosions don't hurt other Pikmin and don't set off bomb rocks.

In Pikmin: Echoes of Eternity
Bomb Rock Pikmin appear in Pikmin: Echoes of Eternity. They differ from their original incarnation in Pikmin: Global Breakdown as now they are immune to explosions. Their tail allows them to attack with a higher power. They also have changed in appearance, now having an orange coloration and vaguely eyebrow-like features, as well as a smaller tail.

In Pikmin: Global Breakdown
Bomb Rock Pikmin appear in Pikmin: Global Breakdown, and are first discovered in the Woods of Faith. Although they can not withstand explosions, Bomb rock Pikmin are capable of destroying reinforced gates themselves, without the need for bomb rocks. Although they do not look burly, their tail has immense strength.

Kuutti85's version
Bomb Rock Pikmin are a form of a mature Gray Pikmin takes upon drinking nectar. This transformation both forms a crystal shell around it and overloads its body with energy, which causes it to become able to explode. Its explosion can severely injure enemies, however, the Pikmin itself is launched away by the explosion. Its explosion will be set off by bomb rocks, other Bomb Rock Pikmins' explosions and exploding enemies, and also by being crushed, however, this will kill it. Its explosion will also kill nearby Pikmin, make it lose its shell, and wilt the Pikmin itself.
