Dwarf Bulbear

Dwarf Bulbears are enemies that, unlike most others Dwarf Bulborbs which members of the Breadbug family that mimic larger Bulborbs, are true juvenile versions of a larger grub-dog, in this case the Spotty Bulbear. Dwarf Bulbears are notably tougher and more alert than Dwarf Bulborbs and are known to follow Spotty Bulbears. They do not delay in noticing a Pikmin in their territory and perk up almost instantly when a Pikmin or leader is near.

Some Dwarf Bulbears are found idly sniffing the air instead of the ground. Some Dwarf Bulbears are able to stand more than one direct hit on the back from a Pikmin, while others instantly die from it. Some Dwarf Bulbears shriek when aggravated to alert any Spotty Bulbears in the vicinity. Some Dwarf Bulbears, to shake off Pikmin, swing their bodies first and then perform a backflip. Others shake off attackers with a simple body-shake.

A Dwarf Bulbear's behavior will change when a Spotty Bulbear is present. Some Spotty Bulbears roam a patrol route in search of food rather than sleeping, and if they come across a pack of Dwarf Bulbears, the dwarves will "yip" and follow the adult. The dwarves' main objective is food, however, and they will stray from a Spotty Bulbear to chase Pikmin or leaders.

Olimar's notes

 * "A grub-dog larva in its third stage of development, this creature's body structure is nearing maturation. However, unlike mature bulbears, it has yet to claim its own patrol route, and thus is dependent upon its parent for guarding direction."

Louie's notes

 * "Remove innards, stuff with sage and finely aged prosciutto, and broil until golden brown. The ultimate crowd pleasers!"
