Bomb Rock Pikmin

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.

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: Echoes of Eternity
Bomb rock Pikmin appear in Pikmin: Echoes of Eternity. They differ from their original incarnation 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.

Kuutti85's version
Bomb Rock Pikmin do not attack regularly, if anything it's attacking is an enemy with high health or a very dangerous enemy, it will explode in front of it. However, this causes the magma inside to stop flowing and cool down to rock for 1½ minutes, after that they can explode again. They will attack in a similar manner to Rock Pikmin in that time. Their explosions don't hurt other Pikmin, and don't set off Bomb Rocks, or vice versa.
