In Pikmin Evolution
The Moldy Bulborb Larva is a species of young grub-dog that has been infected with mold appearing in Pikmin Evolution, it is the infected variant of the Bulborb Larva. They have the same build as the normal Bulborb Larva but are dark turquoise and have small warts on their body which are actually small clumps of mold. They spawn the same way as Bulborb Larva, that being popping out of dirt mounds aboveground, though these dirt mounds are stained green due to the mold filling their tunnels, or spawned by the Broodmother Bulblax. As beings born from mold, they are quite fragile and easily drown when exposed to water. However their bodies are also highly toxic, as when they die they will scatter mold onto the floor upon melting like a normal Bulborb Larva. The effect isn't immediate, so you have a bit of time to escape before the mold cloud overtakes everyone, as it will instantly kill as non-Roach Pikmin who breath it in. After the cloud is scattered it will seep into the ground and become toxic green mold, which slows down and poisons anyone who crosses it and requires Roach Pikmin to clean up. The Moldy Bulborb is the same as the normal Bulborb Larva in every way except for this unique ability, so taking these guys on with Roach Pikmin will be just as easy as defeating a normal Bulborb Larva. One piece of advice if your not afraid of sacrificing Pikmin is to feed the creature a Germ Pikmin, as their acidic taste will cause the Larva to instantly die and melt, however the difference is that the Larva will not scatter mold upon death if they consume a Germ Pikmin as the acid they make upon consumption will destroy the mold the Larva creates. The Moldy Bulborb Larva are most dangerous when with an enraged Broodmother Bulblax as their mother's rage will encourage them to be more aggressive, becoming twice as fast as normal, making them much more dangerous in conjunction with the Broodmother's rolling attack causing them to spread their toxic mold. Overall while only mildly more dangerous than the normal Bulborb Larva, the Moldy Bulbolb Larva will provide many dangers to an unprepared squadron.
