Appearance
 Most GamesA two-legged, beetle-like creature with a tan colored face, a red back with white spots, stalks that hold up two blue eyes, and a large mouth. 

Behavior
 Most GamesThis creature is usually sleeping. When Pikmin or their leaders get close enough, it will wake up and try to bite the leaders and eat the Pikmin. If run away from, it will walk back to its original location and fall back asleep. Pikmin: BulborbIn this game, the Red Bulborb is the player character and it eats pikmin for points. 

Strategy to defeat
 Most GamesSwarming with large groups of Pikmin works in some of the games, but in games with Purple Pikmin or other such powerful species, it should be snuck up on from behind and Pikmin should be thrown in rapid succession onto its back. Pikmin: BulborbLet the Pikmin attack you until you are defeated.
