Dwarf Red Bulborb

Reel Notes
Although similar in appearance to bulborbs, these belong to a totally different species.

Olimar's Notes
Although initially identified as a juvenile red bulborb, groundbreaking new research indicates that this creature is in fact a member of the breadbug family. A close relative of the vanilla breadbug, it escapes predation through mimicry. Unique adaption of the red bulborb's crimson coloration allows the species to safely commingle. Such effective adaptation and obfuscation by a prey species is rare, indicating this clever creature is a master of mimicry.

Louie's Notes
For a blissful bisque, mince the entire beast finely and stir in with heavy cream, artichoke hearts, and a pinch of black pepper. Heat slowly until piping hot. Mmmmm... Rich and creamy!

MR
These common enemies return as common as they used to be.

PS undefined They appear in many caves, and retain their scream attack from Pikmin 1.

Olimar's Notes
"A prime example of the wonders of evolution, this breadbug species mimics an adult red bulborb to avoid predation. Dwarf red bulborbs are very social animals, often hunting in packs of three, and if threatened they will let out a loud scream that wakes up any nearby bulborbs."

Ship's Notes
"This disgusting little pest imitates a bigger disgusting pest. Olimar seems to love storing dead specimens inside my pod for "scientific reasons". Absolutely sickening! And when they start to decompose, eugh!"

PSotF
Just as common as in Pikspore.

Pikmin: Advanced Trilogy
Dwarf Red Bulborbs can be found in the first few games of the trilogy. They are quite common, and usually travel in packs.
