Dwarf Red Bulborb

Dwarf Red Bulborbs, also known as Dwarf Bulborbs, perfectly resemble Red Bulborbs in appearance, but are much smaller. They chase after and try to eat any prey that passes by. In, bothering one will make it release a loud scream, waking up the nearest Red Bulborb. Dwarf Bulborbs can be easily defeated by swarming them, or by throwing a single Pikmin directly on top of them.

They can easily be defeated by swarming them, but tossing a Pikmin directly on top of one will instantly defeat it. Alternatively, a leader can defeat it just by punching it. Just make sure to avoid its bites. When under attack, a Dwarf Red Bulborb may let out a screech, alerting nearby adult bulborbs and dwarf bulborbs. Additionally, when a bomb rock explodes somewhere near it, it might investigate the source of the sound.

In Pikmin: Wide World
The Dwarf Red Bulborb appears in Pikmin: Wide World as a breadbug mimic of the Red Bulborb, both creatures being exclusive to Balmy Highlands and its caves. Dwarf Red Bulborbs are always found on dry land, in pairs or in small groups, often accompanied by one or more Red Bulborbs. They are usually found awake, but sometimes they may doze off and rest until they wake up naturally or are woken up prematurely. Sleeping Dwarf Red Bulborbs will awaken if they are touched, harmed, hear a sound loud enough to rouse them from their slumber, or if enough time has passed. Dwarf Red Bulborbs can be seen searching the ground for any potential prey, such as Pikmin or leaders, occasionally moving a small distance away to hunt in another spot if they don't find anything, and when prey does pass by, Dwarf Red Bulborbs will follow them a short distance before returning their normal behavior and original locations. They always act as a group, moving together and attacking in numbers: when one Dwarf Red Bulborb moves to another spot, others in its group will follow; when one awake Dwarf Red Bulborb detects prey, it will give a small yip that catches the attention of or wakes up others in its group. When irritated or overwhelmed, a Dwarf Red Bulborb will emit a shrill scream that attracts the attention of other creatures, namely larger, stronger grub-dogs such as nearby Red Bulborbs. However, throwing a Pikmin directly on top of a Dwarf Red Bulborb will kill it silently, negating this potential threat.

Dwarf Red Bulborbs are essentially miniature Red Bulborbs in terms of appearance, but not so much behavior. They have the general body shape of a typical bulborb, with a large, round backside and a tapered snout. They have light skin, a crimson rump with white spots, and a pair of large eyes supported by eyestalks. Their irises are blue and their sclerae are white, much like a Red Bulborb's.

Taking down a single Dwarf Red Bulborb is a quick and simple task that is often accomplished with no Pikmin losses, and so is taking down an entire group of them. They can be killed easily by swarming them or by throwing a single Pikmin directly on top of them, although the latter strategy will not work with Winged Pikmin due to their incredibly light weight. It is crucial to kill a Dwarf Red Bulborb before it can cry for help, as to avoid having other, stronger creatures joining the fight. Upon death, a Dwarf Red Bulborb will yield. Aboveground, its body can be brought to either the Dolphin Lander to receive or the Master Onion to gain three Pikmin seeds. Underground, its remains can be taken to the Lander Pod to either receive or gain three Pikmin seeds of choice from the Master Onion, but only if the cave is exited using an escape geyser.
