The Dwarf Purple Bulbear is the juvenile form of a species of bulbear appearing in Pikmin: Colors. As their name suggests, they have a noticeably purple hide, with a face of indigo skin to compliment it. The Dwarf Purple Bulbear is the juvenile form of the Purple Bulbear, and like its larger adult form, it lives mainly underground. The Dwarf Purple Bulborb is noticeably slower than the normal Dwarf Bulbear, approximately 30% slower to be exact, but in exchange, it has 50% more health than a Dwarf Bulbear. The Dwarf Purple Bulborb is a hardy creature, subsisting off pungent food sources that would be considered poisonous to other creatures, most notably Doodlebugs, in fact a common behavior seen is Dwarf Purple Bulbears straying from their parents and chasing down a Doodlebug for sustenance. This toxic diet makes the Bulbear immune to poisoning from White Pikmin. Additionally, it is immune to being petrified from the smoke attack caused by bitter sprays, overall making them quite hardy for their size. However, they are not totally immune to the toxic effects of their diet. Periodically, you can see the Dwarf Purple Bulbears catching their breath while running in order to take time to burp a small cloud of purple mist. Luckily, this mist is harmless, but it implies this creature has gastrointestinal issues growing up. This trait hints towards the abilities they will gain when they grow up into adult Purple Bulbears, but for now, it is just a humorous quirk for an otherwise ravenous creature. Aside from the changes in stats and the new resistances it gets, this creature should be treated like a standard Dwarf Bulbear.

The Dwarf Purple Bulbear is the juvenile form of a species of bulbear appearing in Pikmin: Spark, exclusively in underground dens. As their name suggests, the bodies of Dwarf Purple Bulbears have a deep purple hue, with magenta-colored eyes and indigo skin. Such coloration is given to them by their diet of ultra-bitter berries, passed down to them by their parents, and as a byproduct of this, they tend to have issues with bad gas. More importantly, the diet of ultra-bitter berries makes them immune to ultra-bitter spray, being the only creature alongside its adult form to have this quality. They are also immune to being poisoned by White Pikmin, meaning there are fewer ways to deal with these creatures, making them more dangerous as a whole.

Notes

Abel's medical journal

“The extremely bad gas of this creature is a contaminant of my equipment and my senses.”

Lyn's sale review

“The only good thing this beast makes is a deterrent for creepy stalkers. Otherwise, unsellable.”
