For us, Bosses are the highlight of Pikmin 4. They offer just enough challenge to test our combat skills, whilst also being large and imposing setpieces. They are visually outstanding, and every boss has to be tackled in a different way if you want to make it out on top.
Whilst visually similar to the Arctic Canon Beetle, the Horned Cannon Beetle is its own unique beast. Neigh impervious to all attacks, and lacking in any obvious weakpoints, taking this gribbly down requires creative solutions. This guide is going to walk you through how to defeat the Horned Cannon Beetle, and walk away with zero casualties and a bunch of treasure.

You can find the Horned Cannon Beetle in the Cavern For Kings, a cave found in the Hero’s Hideaway. Like most bosses, the Horned Cannon Beetle is found at the end of the dungeon and you won’t be able to progress without beating it. This is due to the locked gate that only unlocks on the Beetles demise.
The Horned Cannon Beetle only has one real attack, but it can be quite the devastating blow if it lands. It will suck in air through its mouth before firing out a large stone.

What makes the Horned Cannon Beetle stand out is its blowhole. This is found on its head and can even be targeted with your Lock On feature. When Horned Cannon Beetle is charging its projectile, this blowhole will also show an air-based animation, indicating its vulnerable to clogging.
To clog the blowhole throw a single Rock Pikmin at it. We recommend locking on to ensure your aim is as accurate as possible. Once blocked, the Horned Cannon Beetles hard shell will open up, leaving its back exposed.
You want to use Red and Ice Pikmin to quickly deal as much damage as possible. The Ice Pikmin will freeze the Horned Cannon Beetle, extending its vulnerability window. You can also use Ultra Spice to increase your damage output.

5 reasons (and the 5 best seasons) to love the wickedly hilarious UK panel show Taskmaster
It’s taken a few years of me recommending it nonstop, but it finally seems like Taskmaster is catching on in America (you’re welcome). Of course, I can’t take total credit for the concerted effort by the show (and its devoted fans) to make itself known stateside, but I’d like to think that my endless evangelism has had at least a little bit to do with it.
