The Blue Bulborb is a close relative of the Red Bulborb and Yellow Bulborb, but some are aquatic. It looks similar to its relative but has a blue back with white spots and has blue eyes. The Blue Bulborb is another supposed color of common bulborb, and this creature is said to be blue depending on its native region while it may appear red or yellow in others. As with red and yellow bulborbs, Blue Bulborbs also have a breadbug mimic.

In Pikspore

Template:PS In Pikspore, they resemble their Pikmin: Distant Planet counterparts but have slightly more health. They appear in colder regions.

Notes

Olimar's notes

"Yet another grub-dog subspecies, the blue bulborb has a slightly thicker skin, preventing major damage from smaller creatures. Unlike the hairy bulborb, which gets its warmth from the thick fur that covers its back, the blue bulborb uses a retractable sail like an air conditioner, warming its body when it is cold, and vice versa. Studies indicate it is one of the oldest bulborb species, dating back to prehistoric times."

In Pikmin 3: The Dweevil's Revenge

Template:PTDR In Pikmin 3: The Dweevil's Revenge, they have slightly more health but bite less often and shake Pikmin off more. They appear in Wettest Woods. The Blue Bulborb is blue with green spots and has what seems to be gills not unlike the ones Blue Pikmin have. Attack them as if they were any other bulborb. Because they have more health, however, Purple Pikmin should be used.

The Blue Bulborb is a subspecies of Grub-Dog found in Pikmin Eco as a close relative to the Red Bulborb. It looks very similar to it, except that it is blue in color instead of red, and always spawns in submerged areas. While having slightly more health, it's also slower than the Red Bulborb.

Notes

• This subspecies of Grub-Dog has developed a semi-aquatic lifestyle due to its habitat so close to the sea. Although it has the same physical anatomy as similar Bulborb species, the Blue Bulborb has evolved a set of primitive gills located just inside the throat, which allows it to breathe both in the air and in the water. There's been some debate whether it is a Bulborb who's evolved into an aquatic lifestyle, or if the species is a missing link between terrestrial Bulborbs, and aquatic Water Dumples. Further research is being conducted on the matter.

The Blue Bulborb is a relative of the Red Bulborb that resides in water. It has blue skin, white spots, webbed feet, and gills.

Notes

Olimar's notes

"The blue bulborb appears to be a cousin of the red bulborb that is beginning to adapt to underwater regions. The feet have become webbed with a thin membrane and gills have started to grow over the nasal cavity. The dwarf blue bulborb is becoming extinct because of its inability to adapt to these aquatic environments. Little else is known about this creature."

Louie's notes

"Although the taste of the meat is not the greatest in the world, you can stuff the webbed feet in any dish. Instant guest pleasers! Warning: everyone will be asking what your secret is. Don't tell them."

In Pikmin: The Winds of Light, Blue Bulborbs can turn themselves into a puddle to disguise themselves and they like to swim in water. One is near the landing site at The Spring of Serenity, and one is on sublevel two of Comrade's Cavern.

Notes

Olimar's notes

"This particular grub-dog has probably somehow been mutated. As it walks, it creates a trail of water, and it sleeps in a puddle. The puddle is created as a disguise for the blue bulborb, and is effective in water, but on land its location is obvious."
