The '''Fluffy Bulborb''' is a small and fragile [[Grub-dog family|grub-dog]] appearing in ''[[Pikmin: Hybrids]]''. It is nearly identical to the [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]] in terms of appearance, although slightly larger and with a woolly backside.

Fluffy Bulborbs can be very difficult to hurt and kill but they have a very small health pool. Surprise is the best strategy in taking down a Fluffy Bulborb, attacking the creature immediately after it lands. Swarming is effective, but throwing even a single Pikmin directly onto its back will kill the creature instantly. [[Purple Pikmin]] are especially useful, able to knock a Fluffy Bulborb out of the air with a well-aimed toss.
It leaps through the air and sniffs at the ground when it lands. If it doesn't find prey, it hops again to another spot. In combat it eats a couple pikmin, leaps, eats a couple more, then leaps again. This makes it very difficult to hit with Pikmin. Fortunately, its health is very low.


==Strategy==
===Notes===
Suprise is the best strategy. Strike immediately after it lands and begins to sniff around. If you time a throw well enough, you can kill it in one hit in a similar fashion as dwarf bulborbs. If suprise has been lost, swarm it right before it jumps. Purple pikmin are especially useful, and with skill one can knock the Fluffy Bulborb to the ground in midair.
