The Buildrone is a robot used by the Z Syndicate to construct massive factories and other buildings for their colonization projects. It was built for strength and can pick up objects many times its own size. It is a stumpy humanoid robot that hovers above the ground and has a pair of arms with large hands. It is always seen with some concrete bricks around it. It stays in one spot, stacking some concrete bricks and building. When it sees a leader or Pikmin, it will pick up a nearby object and throw them. The weight of the item determines what damage is caused. A small object like a 1-pellet will only knock some Pikmin away, while a big, heavy one like a dead Armored Cannon Beetle will almost certainly crush some Pikmin while deflowering the rest. It can pick up Pikmin and use them against their own kind. To defeat the Buildrone, simply throw large amounts of Pikmin, preferably Purple Pikmin, onto it until it dies.
