=== Albino Bulbear ===
The '''grub-dog family''' contains many species ranging from mammalian, fish-like, and even robotic. Members of this family are frequently mimicked by those of the [[breadbug family]].
{{main|1=Albino Bulbear}}The Albino Bulbear is a bulbear that is most recognized by its white or pale coloration.{{clear}}

===Bulbear Larva===
{{main|Bulbear Larva}}The Bulbear Larva is an infant bulbear.{{clear}}
{{main|Bulbear Larva}}
Bulbear Larvae are newborn bulbears sometimes birthed by Empress Bulbears. Despite looking slightly different, having the characteristic lips of bulbears, the only difference between them and Bulborb Larvae is that Bulbear Larvae are a bit faster; the same tactics and cautions used for Bulborb Larvae apply here as well. They burst upon defeat, but will sometimes release [[nectar]].

=== Dino Bulbear ===
===Dino Bulbear===
{{main|Dino Bulbear}}The Dino Bulbear is a prehistoric bulbear.{{clear}}
{{main|Dino Bulbear}}
The Dino Bulbear is a medium-sized Bulbear with vibrant colors. The Dino Bulbear patrols several set paths searching for prey, instead of passively feeding on creatures that wander into an unlimited territorial range.
{{clear}}


=== Dry Bulbear ===
===Dwarf Bulbear===
{{main|1=Dry Bulbear}}The Brown Bulbear is a bulbear that is dehydrated, as reflected in its appearance.{{clear}}
{{main|Dwarf Bulbear}}
Dwarf Spotty Bulbears resemble miniature [[Spotty Bulbear]]s, but unlike most other dwarf bulborbs, are actually juvenile bulbears. Bulbears, in particular, are known for hunting along set patrol routes in search of prey, but these immature grub-dogs do not yet have established routes, and thus rely on their parent to guide them towards food. When by themselves, Dwarf Bulbears will behave just like dwarf bulborbs, but if an adult bulbear happens to stroll by, these eager young creatures will bark and immediately fall into line behind the beast.
{{clear}}


=== Dwarf Bulbear ===
===Dwarf Green Bulbear===
{{main|Dwarf Bulbear}}The Dwarf Bulbear is a juvenile bulbear.{{clear}}
{{main|Dwarf Green Bulbear}}
The Dwarf Green Bulbear is like a pack leader for dwarf bulbears, but will also follow Green Bulbears. Most of the time, it's just found with other Dwarf Green Bulbears. It is able to command the dwarf bulbears to fight for it or retreat, but otherwise, it is identical to them in every way.
{{clear}}


=== Dwarf Green Bulbear ===
===Dwarf Red Bulbear===
{{main|Dwarf Green Bulbear}}The Dwarf Green Bulbear is a juvenile bulbear with a green-colored backside.{{clear}}
{{main|Dwarf Red Bulbear}}
Dwarf Red Bulbears are juvenile Red Bulbears and are commonly seen sleeping near them in great numbers. They aren't much different from dwarf bulbears aside from color, however; the exact same tactics used to defeat dwarf bulbears also apply to this creature.
{{clear}}


=== Dwarf Hairy Bulbear ===
===Dwarf White Bulbear===
{{main|1=Dwarf Hairy Bulbear}}The Dwarf Hairy Bulbear is a juvenile bulbear with a hair-covered backside.{{clear}}
{{main|Dwarf White Bulbear}}
The Dwarf White Bulbear is a premature version of a regular White Bulbear. It is they same color scheme as the adult only smaller in size. They behave the same as a Dwarf Bulbear only when they shake they release poisonous bacteria that poisons all non White Pikmin.
{{clear}}


=== Dwarf Purple Bulbear ===
===Emperor Bulbear===
{{main|1=Brown Bulbear}}The Dwarf Purple Bulbear is a juvenile bulbear that feeds off ultra-bitter berries, which gives it a resistance to ultra-bitter spray and poisoning from eating White Pikmin.{{clear}}
{{main|Emperor Bulbear}}
The Emperor Bulbear is both smaller and weaker than the Emperor Bulblax, but is no less ravenous and can still eat a large number of Pikmin if underestimated. It doesn't have any kind of protection on its back, so it can be damaged from all sides. At low health, the Emperor Bulbear will try to squash Pikmin with a high jump, but it has a long windup and cooldown, so it is still fairly easy to avoid compared to the Emperor Bulblax's jump.
{{clear}}


=== Dwarf Red Bulbear ===
===Empress Bulbear===
{{main|Dwarf Red Bulbear}}The Dwarf Red Bulbear is a juvenile bulbear with a crimson-colored backside.{{clear}}
{{main|Empress Bulbear}}
The Empress Bulbear is a stronger variant of the Empress Bulblax. It behaves extremely similarly, but has a few additional attacks; most notably, it can attack Pikmin directly in front of it, either by biting or heaving its weight forward to crush them. The Empress Bulbear may also spawn [[Bulbear Larva]]e or cause [[boulder]]s to fall from the ceiling. The same tactics used to fell an Empress Bulblax are applicable here, but with more caution advised due to this beast's more vicious tendencies.
{{clear}}


=== Dwarf Striped Bulbear ===
===Giga Bulbear===
{{main|1=Dwarf Striped Bulbear}}The Dwarf Striped Bulbear is a juvenile bulbear recognizable by its striped backside.{{clear}}
{{main|Giga Bulbear}}
The biggest of all the bulbears, the Giga Bulbear is the size of an Emperor Bulblax and is encountered in a very large arena. Because of its enormous size, it is able to devour an entire team of Pikmin in one bite, so approaching it carelessly is extremely ill-advised.
{{clear}}


=== Dwarf White Bulbear ===
===Granite Bulbear===
{{main|Dwarf White Bulbear}}The Dwarf White Bulbear is a juvenile bulbear known for its toxicity.{{clear}}
{{main|Granite Bulbear}}
he Granite Bulbear is a rare evolution that is made when a Red Bulbear eats an Evo Pikmin. It has gained rock hard armor and another set of jaws. The armor makes it almost impossible to have Pikmin damage it, so it might be necessary to use Iron Pikmin against it. It thrives in hot or dark areas and loves to eat granite and metal.
{{clear}}


=== Empress Bulbear ===
===Green Bulbear===
{{main|Empress Bulbear}}The Empress Bulbear is a bulbear matriarch{{clear}}
{{main|Green Bulbear}}
What a Spotty Bulbear is to Dwarf Bulbears, the Green Bulbear is to Spotty Bulbears. Slightly larger than a Spotty Bulbear, it can eat fifteen Pikmin at once, and has double the stamina of a Spotty Bulbear. It will also regenerate health after death, meaning its corpse must be disposed of quickly. Because Green Bulbears are commonly accompanied by Spotty Bulbears, which are, in turn, followed by Dwarf Bulbears, they are among the most dangerous of all lesser grub-dogs.
{{clear}}


=== Emperor Bulbear ===
===Hairy Bulbear===
{{main|Emperor Bulbear}}The Emperor Bulbear is a bulbear patriarch.{{clear}}
{{main|Hairy Bulbear}}
Just like the hairy bulborb, the Hairy Bulbear is found in cold areas. It has large tufts of hair on it. It is red spotted and has white and faded black as base colors.
{{clear}}


=== Fluffy Bulbear ===
===Lesser Bulbear===
{{main|1=Fluffy Bulbear}}The Fluffy Bulbear is a bulbear with a backside covered in fluffy, pillowed hairs.{{clear}}
{{main|Lesser Bulbear}}
The Lesser Bulbear is brown and the size of an adult Bulbmin, and roams the area freely. Though it's smaller and weaker than the Spotty Bulbear, only being able to eat a small number of Pikmin at a time, it's also more common and tends to appear in groups. The Lesser Bulbear can dodge to the side to avoid attacks and catch Pikmin off guard.
{{clear}}


=== Giga Bulbear ===
===Mossy Bulbear===
{{main|Giga Bulbear}}The Giga Bulbear is a ferocious bulbear of massive proportions.{{clear}}
{{main|Mossy Bulbear}}
The Mossy Bulbear is a bulbear that has moss on him. Occasionally, some pikmin may get stuck to it's back if thrown there.
{{clear}}


=== Granite Bulbear ===
===Orange-Eyed Bulbear===
{{main|Granite Bulbear}}The Granite Bulbear is a bulbear equipped with a rocky, dense armor.{{clear}}
{{main|Orange-Eyed Bulbear}}
The Orange-Eyed Bulbear is a large species of Grub-dog found on planet Aridia. It is a large gray skinned Bulbear with a dark tanned face a huge orange eyeballs with no pupils. Those large eyeballs help this creature see in dark or hazardous environments. This creature is a very dangerous predator, as it will be after you as soon as a day stars or a s soon as you touch down on a sublevel. Luckily though, it has smaller health than other species. But unluckily, it's large mouth makes it able to eat more Pikmin than the average Bulbear.
{{clear}}


=== Green Bulbear ===
===Red Bulbear===
{{main|Green Bulbear}}The Green Bulbear is a mature bulbear that leads other adult bulbears.{{clear}}
{{main|Red Bulbear}}
The Red Bulbear is very similar to the Spotty Bulbear, but is set apart by its nocturnal nature; the Red Bulbear sleeps during the day like most bulborbs. In effect, it is a stronger version of the Red Bulborb, and is marginally stronger than a Spotty Bulbear. Dwarf Red Bulbears also accompany this creature in great numbers, also sleeping nearby.
{{clear}}


=== Green Bulbear Larva ===
===Spotty Bulbear===
{{main|1=Green Bulbear Larva}}The Green Bulbear Larva is an infant Green Bulbear.{{clear}}
{{main|Spotty Bulbear}}
Spotty Bulbears are creatures that resemble bulborbs in appearance but have several differences. They are a bit shorter, with rounded snouts, large, chapped lips, and a wide mouth which allows them to gobble up many more Pikmin. From a distance, they are easily distinguishable by their tan faces and black bodies with red spots. Often, a Spotty Bulbear is followed by a group of [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s. These beasts can be found either sleeping or actively patrolling their territory during the daytime, making them all the more dangerous. Dwarf Bulbears may also follow them while they patrol.
{{clear}}


=== Hairy Bulbear ===
===Stomping Bulbear===
{{main|Hairy Bulbear}}The Hairy Bulbear is a bulbear with a coat of fine, white fur.{{clear}}
{{main|Stomping Bulbear}}
The Stomping Bulbear is an evolution of the Spotty Bulbear when it eats and Evo Pikmin. It is a dark gray Bulbear with orange spots and a slightly larger abdomen. It also comes with giant feet that are the size of a wide screen TV. It uses these feet to crush pikmin and wake up and enrage other sleeping Grub-dogs. It also has a larger mouth, so it can scoop up more pikmin in it's mouth. It wanders just like a regular Bulbear also has children following it sometimes.
{{clear}}


=== Lesser Bulbear ===
===Vampire Bulbear===
{{main|Lesser Bulbear}}The Lesser Bulbear is a weaker, smaller bulbear.{{clear}}
{{main|Vampire Bulbear}}
Vampire Bulbears possess much more contrast in their coloration than ordinary Spotty Bulbears do. They possess more vibrant reds, deeper blacks, and paler flesh. On top of that, Vampiric Bulbears also possess striking red eyes that can easily be seen in darkness. The whites of their eyes are a deep black hue as well. After having approached its prey, Vampiric Bulbears lunge forward in an attempt to consume it, usually grabbing hold of its meal. If it had been harmed, anything the Vampiric Bulbear eats will restore a portion of its health. Additionally, the Vampiric Bulbear will recover slightly faster after death than an ordinary Spotty Bulbear does.
{{clear}}


=== Monochromatic Bulbear ===
===Watery Bulbear===
{{main|1=Monochromatic Bulbear}}The Monochromatic Bulbear is a bulbear with a black and white coloration, and travels in packs.{{clear}}
{{main|Watery Bulbear}}
The Watery Bulbear is a close relative of the Spotty Bulbear and the Watery Bulblax. Drool practically flows from its mouth, and covering its back is a watery membrane: any Pikmin that touches either one will drown unless they are Blue Pikmin. It is normally found sleeping peacefully and only awakens if it is disturbed.
{{clear}}


=== Mossy Bulbear ===
===Webbed Bulbear===
{{main|Mossy Bulbear}}The Mossy Bulbear is a bulbear with a backside covered in a thick moss.{{clear}}
{{main|Webbed Bulbear}}
The Webbed Bulbear is a semi-aquatic species of Bulbear. It's appearance resembles a smaller version of a Bulbear with brownish-green skin, and webbed feet hence the name. It is fairly standard in its approach, though it does move a bit faster in water than on land.

{{main|Blue Bulbmin}}
 
These ultra-rare creatures are led by Blue Bulbmin leaders, similar to regular Bulbmin. If a squad of Blue Bulbmin is able to be tracked down and defeated, five juvenile Blue Bulbmin are able to be collected, if there is enough space in the party. Be warned, however, that adult Blue Bulbmin are formidable foes. Resistant to all elements, Blue Bulbmin can leave the dungeon as well. There are four separate Blue Bulbmin leaders scattered in deep dungeons throughout the world, giving a maximum of twenty Blue Bulbmin that can be held in the ship at a time.

{{main|Anode Bulblax}}The Anode Bulblax is a bulblax that can discharge electricity from its skin.{{clear}}
{{main|Bulbmin}}
Bulbmin are Red Bulborbs that are host to a parasitic species of Pikmin; it is hinted by Olimar that these parasitic Pikmin can take on other hosts as well. They can be found wandering an area, patrolling an established path in search of food. Mature Bulbmin, acting as a leader, are usually followed by up to ten juvenile Bulbmin. These wild juveniles can be used like normal Pikmin by leaders. The mature Bulbmin acts like a Bulborb, in that it will pursue and eat Pikmin. After defeating it, the smaller ones go into a panic. They are not dangerous, but whistling at them will instantly bring them into line under the leader's command, and they become part of the Pikmin swarm.

{{main|Hairy Bulbmin}}
The Hairy Bulbmin is a young Hairy Bulborb that is being controlled by the same parasitic Pikmin that controls Bulbmin. It roams the area, with five little Snow Bulbmin following it. It attacks just like normal Bulbmin, by eating Pikmin, but when it reaches half-health, its hairs shoot off of it, causing them to start panicking. This makes the Hairy Bulbmin a rather annoying foe to fight. When defeated, the five Snow Bulbmin can be recruited into the Pikmin squad.

{{main|Bomblax}}The Bomblax is a bulblax that explodes violently to take out its attackers.{{clear}}

=== Broodmother Bulblax ===
===Acidic Emperor Bulblax===
{{main|1=Broodmother Bulblax}}The Broodmother Bulblax is a grub-dog matriarch infected by mold.{{clear}}
{{main|Acidic Emperor Bulblax}}
The Acidic Emperor Bulblax is a distant relative of the common Emperor Bulblax. Overall, the gargantuan beast is brilliantly-colored: its skin is yellow, its tongue is green, and its hide is purple. A thin layer of deadly acid covers the creature's entire body, so Green Pikmin are necessary to battle one.
{{clear}}


=== Bubbling Bulblax ===
===Ancient Bulblax===
{{main|1=Bubbling Bulblax}}The Bubbling Bulblax is a bulblax that produces bubbles from its skin and mouth.{{clear}}
{{main|Ancient Bulblax}}
The Ancient Bulblax is a remarkably-aged Emperor Bulblax that is as large as it is old. A multitude of plant life grows upon its back, including several Burgeoning Spiderworts. The Ancient Bulblax's voice is weak and its legs are frail, and so it cannot roar nor jump. Its eyesight and hearing are also poor, which causes the mighty beast to blindly wander around its territory in search of its prey. Because of its sheer size, the Ancient Bulblax can use its tongue to eat an insurmountable quantity Pikmin at once. As the behemoth walks, the berries of the Burgeoning Spiderworts on its back may fall to the ground below and burst upon impact, which may stun or topple anything standing nearby. Pikmin and leaders are most often affected by this, but enemies too can be affected.
{{clear}}

===Angler Bulblax===
{{main|1=Bulblax Larva}}The Bulblax larva is an infant bulblax.{{clear}}
{{main|Angler Bulblax}}
The Angler Bulblax is a subterranean menace and a member of the Grub-dog family. True to its name, the Angler Bulblax lures its prey using its tongue as well as the Common Glowcaps on its back. The creature's skin is entirely black in color, but its blue tongue glows much like the fungi dotted around its armored back. Similarly to the Emperor Bulblax, the Angler Bulblax's only weakpoint is its soft, fleshy face. The creature is also considerably larger than its brethren, and it uses its size to its advantage.
{{clear}}


=== Centipede Bulblax ===
===Anode Bulblax===
{{main|Centipede Bulblax}}The Centipede Bulblax is a giant, segmented bulblax with numerous pairs of legs.{{clear}}

=== Chameleon Bulblax ===
===Aura Bulblax===
{{main|1=Chameleon Bulblax}}The Chameleon Bulblax is a bulblax that can change its coloration to blend into its surroundings.{{clear}}
{{main|Aura Bulblax}}
The Aura Bulblax is a grub-dog that produces a special blue energy that is deadly to all Pikmin types. Much like the Fiery Bulblax, the creature is regularly found sleeping and will not awaken unless it is disturbed. Extreme care must be taken to avoid Pikmin getting too close to the creature and dying to its aura. If the Aura Bulblax is awoken, flee to a safe location and stay there until it returns to its resting spot and continues its slumber. Because the Aura Bulblax is always surrounded completely in an aura that instantly kills all Pikmin types that enter it, the creature may initially seem invincible.
{{clear}}


=== Darkfreeze Bulblax ===
===Bomblax===
{{main|Darkfreeze Bulblax}}The Darkfreeze Bulblax is a bulblax infected by a darkfreeze essence.{{clear}}
{{main|Bomblax}}
The Bomblax is very similar to the Fiery Bulblax, but its entire back is covered in [[bomb rock]]s. When it spots Pikmin from a distance, it will roll lit bomb rocks toward them from its mouth. If the Bomblax is attacked from behind, it's likely to explode and take out any Pikmin nearby with it, so caution must be taken while dealing with this enemy; the easiest way to defeat one is to simply trick it into being caught in its own bomb rock's explosion.
{{clear}}


=== Darkfreeze Emperor Bulblax ===
===Centipede Bulblax===
{{main|Darkfreeze Emperor Bulblax}}The Darkfreeze Emperor Bulblax is a grub-dog patriarch infected by a darkfreeze essence.{{clear}}
{{main|Centipede Bulblax}}
The Centipede Bulblax is from the Grub-Dog family, althought it doesn't have legs. It has eyes, but they're stick to it's body, and don't look like an antenna, like the other Bulborbs. It don't walk, it crawls. Also, in water it doesn't drown, it just keep crawling, but in a much slower speed. It's body is huge, making it the tallest enemy ever seen. It isn't as large as the Empress Bulblax, but can roll over to attack Pikmin, even that being not a very effective attack from himself. His body is entirely segmented, and destroyed a part of it may defeat it, or lead the creature to try capturing his other body pieces.

=== Deposed Bulblax ===
===Darkfreeze Bulblax===
{{main|1=Deposed Bulblax}}The Deposed Bulblax is a grub-dog patriarch infected by mold.{{clear}}
{{main|Darkfreeze Bulblax}}
The Darkfreeze Bulblax is a bulblax infected by the [[Darkfreeze]], recognizable by its dark coloration and vibrant blue veins, all encased in a frozen shell. It's as heavy a sleeper as any other bulborb, but while awake, it chases down Pikmin and leaders with deceptive speed. When the Darkfreeze Bulblax eats Pikmin, it also lets out some frozen breath from the sides of its mouth that freezes Pikmin in close proximity solid. Its back is too tough for any Pikmin to get a hold on, and even the ground it walks on becomes frozen and slippery. Ice-resistant Pikmin are all but necessary to fight one of these without heavy losses.

{{main|Doom Bulblax}}
The Doom Bulblax is a bulblax infected by [[doom essence]]. It is one of the most powerful of all lesser grub-dogs as it can potentially turn Pikmin against their leaders by turning them into [[Doom Pikmin]]. It is also able to call nearby bulborbs to its side, does not sleep, deals residual damage to leaders, and can crush Pikmin by jumping on them. Approach this beast as if fighting a Fiery Bulblax, but be sure to pay close attention to the Pikmin so that they do not become Doom Pikmin and attack each other.

{{main|Earthquake Empress Bulblax}}
It is a tan colored Empress Bulblax with dark yellow spots. It has a larger mouth that is used to scoop up Pikmin and smaller prey to eat. It can also give berth to larva that will attack when given the chance. But if you have enough Pikmin, you should be fine. The dangerous part is when it's health starts to lower, it will make holes in the ground by shaking the ground. If any Pikmin or larva are caught, they are instantly killed, making it a very dangerous foe. When it dies, it will make a large sinkhole and sink into it, making it impossible to collect.

{{main|Emperor Bulblax}}
The Emperor Bulblax resembles a flabby yellow bulborb with small red eyes and a large, moss-covered backside. Its attacks include licking the ground with its tongue with the intent to eat any Pikmin that happen to be there, licking its face to get rid of offending Pikmin, and jumping into the air to crush and shake off Pikmin. The safest strategy by far is to trick the Emperor Bulblax into ingesting [[bomb rock]]s.

The Empress Bulblax resembles a cross between a Red Bulborb and a gargantuan termite queen. The Empress Bulblax seems to be vulnerable on all parts of its body, but attacking the head is easily the safest way to go about it. After a while, it will shake off any hostile Pikmin and roll left and right, crushing anything underneath and sometimes causing boulders to fall from the ceiling. Some Empress Bulblaxes continuously giving birth to ravenous [[Bulborb Larva]]e before and during the battle against it.

{{main|Fiery Bulblax}}
The Fiery Bulblax is a rather odd-looking creature. Its entire body has a melted appearance, and one of its eyes is smaller than the other, possibly an eye tic. This mean-looking creature's skin secretes chemicals which combust upon exposure to oxygen, setting its body aflame. Only [[Red Pikmin]] can withstand the blaze this creature's body produces. However, if lured into [[water]], the flames can be extinguished, making it a prime target for [[Blue Pikmin]].

{{main|Flying Bulblax}}
The Flying Bulblax is a rare bulblax with broad wings and a pink coloration. It locks its sight onto Pikmin from afar and swoops down to gobble them up as it flies across. The Flying Bulblax has no elemental affinity, so it can be physically touched by any kind of Pikmin without harm. However, it always flies high enough in the air that only Yellow Pikmin can consistently be thrown at it. Another viable tactic is to trick the Flying Bulblax into ramming into a wall as it dives, which downs it immediately and leaves it vulnerable to attack for a good amount of time.

The Horned Bulblax is a large, dark green bulblax that is notable for its complete lack of legs and is named for the large horns on its head that are presumably just for show.

Therefore, it is advised to fight Horned Bulblaxes one at a time rather than facing the entire pack head-on.

It is also guaranteed to explode some time after death, taking out any Pikmin currently carrying it, so it's recommended to avoid carrying this beast's body back.

=== Mini Bulborb ===
===Snapjawed Bulborb===
{{main|1=Mini Bulborb}}The Mini Bulborb is a smaller version of a regular bulborb.{{clear}}
{{main|Snapjawed Bulborb}}
The Snapjawed Bulborb is a medium-sized Grub-dog, bearing saber teeth, long legs similar to that of a jerboa or kangaroo mouse, and a long, thin snout with a bulbous tip. Their bodies are orange with tan spots, and their heads are a similar tan color. Their sclera are a deep yellow and their pupils are sharp and vertical, similar to that of felines or certain reptiles. The eyestalk of the Snapjawed Bulborb is thin and tall, giving it the farthest range of vision of any Grub-dog. Due to the form of their legs, Snapjawed Bulborbs jump to move around, and only make small steps to reorientate themselves.
{{clear}}


=== Misty Golden Bulborb ===
===Tapioca Bulborb===
{{main|1=Misty Golden Bulborb}}The Misty Golden Bulborb is a valuable bulborb that emits a smoky gas.{{clear}}
{{main|Tapioca Bulborb}}
Tapioca Bulborbs have massive pustules on their backs instead of spots. These pustules contain a confusing mist and pop under pressure.
{{clear}}


=== Moldy Bulborb ===
===Toothy Bulborb===
{{main|1=Moldy Bulborb}}The Moldy Bulborb is a bulborb that's infected by spores.{{clear}}
{{main|Toothy Bulborb}}
The Toothy Bulborb is a large and aggressive Grub-Dog. It is a black-and-white species with sandy skin along the front of the body, with prominent "sabre-teeth" on the sides of the mouth.
{{clear}}

===Trap-Door Bulborb===
{{main|1=Moldy Bulborb Larva}}The Moldy Bulborb Larva is an infant bulborb infected by spores.{{clear}}
{{main|Trap-Door Bulborb}}
It is a all black Bulborb with pink eyes and long sharp fangs. As it's name suggests, it hides in small trap doors. Once prey come into contact with it, the Bulborb will spring out, eating any prey (or Pikmin) near it. The best way to fight it is to use Craftmin straw dummies and have the Bulborb chew on it. It won't be able to retreat because it will take a while to eat it. So that is the perfect moment to strike. It can also suck in prey with it's mouth and chew them up when they are out of their holes.
{{clear}}


=== Mosh Pit Bulborb ===
===Whiptongue Bulborb===
{{main|Mosh Pit Bulborb}}The Mosh Pit Bulborb is a bulborb that resides in large pits.{{clear}}
{{main|Whiptongue Bulborb}}
Whiptongue Bulborbs feature the characteristic rounded body and bulbous stalk-eyes, but they are different from their many terrestrial cousins in that they have a long, anteater-like snout instead of a large maw. It lashes its tongue out violently to ensnare Pikmin, then pulls them in and does a very brief animation of licking its chops and swallowing. The long tongue effectively gives the creature a ranged attack, which can make it a difficult foe to defeat.
{{clear}}


=== Mossy Bulborb ===
===White Bulborb===
{{main|1=Mossy Bulborb}}The Mossy Bulborb is a bulborb that's covered in moss.
{{main|White Bulborb}}
The White Bulborb is very similar in behavior to the Red Bulborb, though it is a little bulkier and also has toxic breath. In addition to eating Pikmin, it also poisons Pikmin in the vicinity when it lunges. It's not usually enough of a threat to warrant using exclusively White Pikmin against it, but beware that its body will emit poisonous gas after a while, preventing non-White Pikmin from carrying it.
{{clear}}


=== Mud Bulborb ===
===Yellow Bulborb===
{{main|Mud Bulborb}}The Mud Bulborb is a bulborb that lives in mud and uses it to its advantage.{{clear}}

{{clear}}


=== Mushroomy Bulborb ===
===Zombie Bulborb===
{{main|Mushroomy Bulborb}}The Mushroomy Bulborb is a bulborb that's infected by a fungus.{{clear}}
{{main|Zombie Bulborb}}

{{clear}}


=== Mutated Bulborb ===
==Dumples==
{{main|Mutated Bulborb}}The Mutated Bulborb is a bulborb that has been mutated by radiation.{{clear}}
===Acid Dumple===
{{main|Acid Dumple}}
The Acid Dumple is more or less identical to the standard Water Dumple besides its green coloration, but it is found in acidic water, being highly resistant to the harmful effects. Because of its choice of habitat, it's foolish to go after an Acid Dumple without the use of acid-resistant Pikmin, but otherwise, they are no more dangerous than a regular Water Dumple.
{{clear}}


=== Ninja Bulborb ===
===Darkfreeze Dumple===
{{main|Ninja Bulborb}}The Ninja Bulborb is a bulborb that's particularly stealthy.{{clear}}
{{main|Darkfreeze Dumple}}
A Water Dumple infected by the Darkfreeze. As far as Darkfreeze enemies go, the Darkfreeze Dumple is one of the least extravagant, but it is still much faster than a regular Water Dumple and can eat several more Pikmin in a single bite. The Darkfreeze Dumple also freezes attacking Pikmin when it shakes them off, and will probably eat them soon afterward, so calling them back quickly is advised to avoid losses.
{{clear}}


=== Olive Bulbling ===
===Dino Dumple===
{{main|1=Ultimate Dragoona}}The Olive Bulbling is a juvenile grub-dog that's immune to illness.{{clear}}
{{main|Dino Dumple}}
An ancient ancestor of the Water Dumple found only in the [[Lost Land]] and distinguished by its yellow color and tusks. The Dino Dumple is slower than a regular Water Dumple, but if it manages to catch up, it eats Pikmin at a much faster rate, gobbling them down ravenously. They are usually found in packs of three or more.
{{clear}}


=== Orange Bulborb ===
===Electric Dumple===
{{main|Orange Bulborb}}The Orange Bulborb is a bulborb with an orange-covered backside that's particularly easy to agitate.{{clear}}
{{main|Electric Dumple}}
The Electric Dumple is similar to the regular Water Dumple but has an electrical attack that stuns Pikmin and leaves them helpless as the creature eats them. When the Electric Water Dumple's barbels begin to charge, that's the cue to back off.  
{{clear}}


=== Ornate Bulborb ===
===Gummed Dumple===
{{main|Ornate Bulborb}}The Ornate Bulborb is a bulborb that has a decorative appearance.{{clear}}
{{main|Gummed Dumple}}
They are a close relative of the Water Dumple, having the same general body shape and behavioral characteristics. Like Water Dumples, Gummed Dumples are found on land and in water, waiting idly until a leader or their Pikmin draw near, where they will begin giving chase. A Gummed Dumple will quickly lose interest if its potential meal walks too far away, however, and return to its original spot.
{{clear}}


=== Painted Bulborb ===
===Hairy Dumple===
{{main|Painted Bulborb}}The Painted Bulborb is a bulborb that can be easy to agitate, and is immune to White Pikmin venom.{{clear}}
{{main|Hairy Dumple}}

{{clear}}


=== Peach Bulborb ===
===Icy Dumple===
{{main|Peach Bulborb}}The Peach Bulborb is a bulborb that is significantly obese.{{clear}}
{{main|Icy Dumple}}
Like a regular Water Dumple, the Icy Dumple is an aquatic creature that is able to grab two Pikmin in its mouth at a time, but unlike it, is differentiated from a Water Dumple by its blue-green color and the trail of ice it leaves as it moves.
{{clear}}


=== Pinchy Bulborb ===
===Jungle Dumple===
{{main|1=Pinchy Bulborb}}The Pinchy Bulborb is a bulborb that can hold and crush Pikmin in their mandibles.{{clear}}
{{main|Jungle Dumple}}
The Jungle Dumple is possibly the missing link between bulborbs and Water Dumples, as it still possesses legs in addition to the standard Water Dumple anatomy. These Dumples are very fast and mobile, unlike their sluggish cousins, and are most feared for their ability to shoot acid at long distances and poison Pikmin at close range. Jungle Dumples are fortunately rare and solitary creatures that aren't encountered often.
{{clear}}


=== Poisonous Bulborb ===
===Lava Dumple===
{{main|1=Poisonous Bulborb}}The Poisonous Bulborb is a bulborb that can defend itself with poisonous spores.{{clear}}

{{main|Long Water Dumple}}
The Long Water Dumple is an elongated, eel-like variant of the [[Water Dumple]], with bright yellow spots, a pink mouth lined with sharp teeth, and hair-like follicles on its head. They have two eye-stalks with glowing orbs on the end that act as its eyes, similar to bulborbs. It attacks by quickly lunging at its prey, eating any Pikmin in its way, after which it is vulnerable for attack. It can also attack by ramming into a wall, which causes [[boulder]]s to fall. It can spit boulders at its attackers.
{{clear}}


=== Raging Bulborb ===
===Mutated Jelly Pucker===
{{main|1=Raging Bulborb}}The Raging Bulborb is a bulborb that charges Pikmin and flings them away with its tail.{{clear}}
{{main|Mutated Jelly Pucker}}
Mutated Jelly Puckers are like Water Dumples, only poisonous. White Pikmin have an advantage against this toxic enemy! It is also somewhat related to a Water Dumple.
{{clear}}


=== Rainbow Bulborb ===
===Rock-Clinger Water Dumple===
{{main|Rainbow Bulborb}}The Rainbow Bulborb is a bulborb with a rainbow coloration.{{clear}}
{{main|Rock-Clinger Water Dumple}}
The Rock-Clinger Water Dumple spends most of its time stuck to the sides of rocks and watching Pikmin and leaders walk by. The Rock-Clinger Water Dumple is generally docile and will only attack in self-defense; if it is made to shake attacking Pikmin off of its body, it will bury them, and subsequently start eating the buried Pikmin. It's generally safe to just avoid these enemies because they make no effort to attack Pikmin unprovoked, but they are also very easy to defeat and carry back for Pikmin seeds.
{{clear}}


=== Reality Bulborb ===
===Sky Dumple===
{{main|Reality Bulborb}}The Reality Bulborb is a bulborb that has reality-bending properties.{{clear}}
{{main|Sky Dumple}}
Unlike other Water Dumples, the Sky Dumple is a harmless filter-feeder that floats in the air due to its gas-filled head and makes no effort to attack Pikmin. Sky Dumples are typically found minding their own business as simple fodder, but because of their sticky skin, they may be found stuck to walls in great numbers, forming an obstacle that must be cleared to progress.
{{clear}}


=== Red Bulborb ===
===Springtrap Dumple===
{{main|Red Bulborb}}The Red Bulborb is a bulborb with a crimson-colored backside.{{clear}}
{{main|Springtrap Dumple}}
The Springtrap Dumple is longer than other Water Dumples. True to its name, it is an ambush predator that springs out of the ground with extreme speed to grab Pikmin that pass by it, then returns to its burrow and eats them. Defeating it is as simple as baiting it to emerge from the ground, and then attacking with a large group of Pikmin before it can return to its burrow, but keep in mind that it is also much faster underwater and thus harder to catch.
{{clear}}


=== Royal Bulborb ===
===Tad Dumple===
{{main|Royal Bulborb}}The Royal Bulborb is an exotic bulborb that may wear a crown.{{clear}}
{{main|Tad Dumple}}
The Tad Dumple is named for the tadpole-like tail on its back. It also possesses tiny feet that make it more mobile. It is small, but also very nimble; not only is it able to eat Pikmin very quickly, but it can also hop onto Pikmin to pin them down and eat them. This creature only ever appears in the water and will never leave, so Blue Pikmin are required to defeat them; just keep in mind that they are very dangerous despite their size and low health.
{{clear}}


=== Rockborb ===
===Toxic Dumple===
{{main|Rockborb}}The Rockborb is a bulborb comprised entirely of stone.{{clear}}
{{main|Toxic Dumple}}
The Toxic Dumple is set apart from a regular Water Dumple by its white color and the trail of poison gas it leaves as it moves. The Toxic Dumple is also slower than most Water Dumples, but its poison trail makes it particularly annoying in the water, as Blue Pikmin have no defense against poison.
{{clear}}


=== Rust Bulbling ===
===Warp Dumple===
{{main|1=Rust Bulbling}}The Rust Bulbling is a juvenile grub-dog that has a metallic coating.{{clear}}
{{main|Warp Dumple}}
The Warp Dumple is a rather tricky foe that can teleport around to confuse its prey. Looking like a large, yellow Water Dumple, it moves slowly but can warp over to its prey and gobble up over five in a single lunge. If your Pikmin attack it, it will simply teleport away, causing them to fall off and deflowering them. Luckily, if there is a large enough number of Pikmin attached to it, it will be unable to teleport.
{{clear}}


=== Sandy Bulbling ===
===Water Dumple===
{{main|1=Sandy Bulbling}}The Sandy Bulbling is a juvenile grub-dog that's digs into the ground to surprise its prey.{{clear}}
{{main|Water Dumple}}
The Warp Dumple is a relative of the Water Dumple that is noticeable for its large size and uniform yellow coloration. When it sees Pikmin, it moves through the water with such speed that it appears to teleport forward. It can also do this while Pikmin are attacking this to shake them off its body. Because of its size, the Warp Dumple can eat many Pikmin at a time, but it is also a bigger target and can be weighed down by enough Pikmin that it is rendered unable to move quickly to shake them off.
{{clear}}


=== Sandy Bulborb ===
==Other==
{{main|Sandy Bulborb}}The Sandy Bulborb is a bulborb that lives in sand or may be made in it.{{clear}}
===Beefy Bulblblub===

It has two curved horns over its eyes and dark red pupils with black scleras. It has long eyestalks and a very big and bulky body. This is colored dark brownish-red and has an ancient-looking cracked appearance. Its head is also abnormally large and its mouth is filled with interlocking fangs. Its feet are also very big. It has two massive, cherry-red legs with very wide clawed feet. When found, it will usually be in a very deep sleep. It sleeps standing up on its feet so it gets a head start when it wakes up, which happens as soon as a Pikmin attacks it. The creature will wake up with a sudden jerk, throwing off all of the Pikmin attached to it. It will open its enormous, glowing eyes, look around and then lock onto the leader.
{{clear}}


=== Seismic Bulborb ===
===Billaborb===
{{main|Seismic Bulborb}}The Seismic Bulborb is a bulborb that can produce tremors or earthquakes.{{clear}}
{{main|Billaborb}}
The Billaborb is an aquatic species of grub-dog that has resistance to muddy water. It can swim after squadrons taking rafts across this water and use its nose to overturn them. It then will try to eat the Pikmin that fail to return to the raft's safety in time.
{{clear}}


=== Shaved Hairy Bulborb ===
===Blue Bulbasker===
{{main|Shaved Hairy Bulborb}}The Shaved Hairy Bulborb is a bulborb that lacks hair.{{clear}}
{{main|Blue Bulbasker}}
The Blue Bulbasker is a blue, aquatic grub-dog. This creature has sharp, jagged fangs, as well as fierce orange eyes that are not supported by eye stalks. It also sports large, fin-like flaps on the sides of its face which partially conceal its gills, meaning it is amphibious. This is supported by the fact that it treads in the shallow waters of The Fountain Valley. It eats six Pikmin at a time but does not try to shake them off. Instead, it will continue attempting to feed on Pikmin until it is defeated.
{{clear}}


=== Sinkhole Bulborb ===
===Blukorb===
{{main|Sinkhole Bulborb}}The Sinkhole Bulborb is a bulborb that can create quicksand or pits in the ground.{{clear}}

{{clear}}


=== Sleepwalker Bulborb ===
===Bulbush===
{{main|Sleepwalker Bulborb}}The Sleepwalker Bulborb is a bulborb that walks in its sleep.{{clear}}
{{main|Bulbush}}
The Bulbush is mostly like any other big Bulborb, but is distinguished by its green coloration. Notably, its back is covered in symbiotic moss that makes it look a bit like a shrub when asleep. This slippery moss covering causes Pikmin to have a poor grip on the Bulbush's back, and they will fall off more easily. Attacking the Bulbush's face and eyes is advised, but watch out for its mouth, as it is just as ravenous as any other Bulborb.
{{clear}}


=== Smoky Bulborb ===
===Cavernous Bulbat===
{{main|Smoky Bulborb}}The Smoky Bulborb is a bulborb that emits gas to suffocate Pikmin.{{clear}}
{{main|Cavernous Bulbat}}
The Cavernous Bulbat is a highly divergent grub-dog thoroughly adapted for flight. It roosts on walls in groups until approached, then swoops down to snatch Pikmin and eat them. Their numbers make them somewhat dangerous, but Cavernous Bulbats also do not have much health and can be easily grounded by a few thrown Pikmin.
{{clear}}


=== Snapjawed Bulborb ===
==="Definitely a Bulborb"===
{{main|Snapjawed Bulborb}}The Snapjawed Bulborb is a bulborb that can jump or move forward at quicker speeds.{{clear}}

{{main|1=Snowy Bulborb}}The Snowy Bulborb is a bulborb that's covered in snow.{{clear}}
{{main|Eye-Stalker Bulbeel}}
The Eye-Stalker Bulbeel is an aquatic variant of grub-dog. It strongly resembles a purple eel with red fins, light blue stripes on its sides, and a tan belly. Its mouth appears small and puckered when not attacking. They are found emerging from underwater pits. Eye-Stalker Bulbeels attack by lunging directly towards Pikmin or leaders with their mouth wide open to eat them, after which they will retreat. They poke their heads out before attacking, giving leaders a chance to get away.
{{clear}}


=== Southern Cross Bulborb ===
===Fungiborb===
{{main|Southern Cross Bulborb}}The Southern Cross Bulborb is a bulborb that has stars on its back that resembles the Southern Cross constellation.{{clear}}
{{main|Fungiborb}}
The Fungiborb is a grub-dog that is capable of transforming Pikmin into Mushroom Pikmin. It has brown skin, lavender eyes, and a large spotted mushroom cap protecting its backside. Pikmin that are thrown at this cap harmlessly bounce off of it, making attacking the Fungiborb's face its only effective means of attack. Whenever the Fungiborb shakes Pikmin off of itself, the cap on its back will drop spores, turning Pikmin nearby or under the creature into Mushroom Pikmin.
{{clear}}


=== Spewer Bulborb ===

=== Spiked Bulborb ===
===Honey Bulborb===
{{main|1=Spiked Bulborb}}The Spiked Bulborb is a bulborb that's covered in thorns.{{clear}}
{{main|Honey Bulborb}}
This creature has honey dripping from its mouth as it tries to chomp your Pikmin. The honey that drips from its mouth can slow your Pikmin leaving them vulnerable to being eaten! These enemies can be taken out like regular Bulborbs at the back, allowing you to avoid the dripping honey it drools. This Bulborb is not related to the other Bulborb types.
{{clear}}


=== Starving Bulborb ===
===Illint===
{{main|1=Starving Bulborb}}The Starving Bulborb is a bulborb that is remarkably malnourished.{{clear}}
{{main|Illint}}
The Illint is a distant relative of the bulborbs, taking some of the classic definitions of them, like spotty backs any eyestalks.
{{clear}}

{{main|Tapioca Bulborb}}The Tapioca Bulborb is a bulborb that can pop pustles on its back to emit confusion-inducing gas.{{clear}}
{{main|King Illint}}
The King Illint is also a distant relative of bulborbs. It is a much larger version of the normal Illint, and leads the entire colony.
{{clear}}

{{main|Toothy Bulborb}}The Toothy Bulborb is a bulborb that has a remarkable set of buckteeth.{{clear}}
{{main|Omega Bulband}}
The Omega Bulband is a boss in Pikmin: Dark Forces, and is one of the most challenging. It hops around constantly, attempting to eat Captain Olimar's Pikmin.

{{main|Red Bulbasker}}
Found in The Sand Fields, this Bulbasker is a rare and fearsome enemy. It can eat up to 8 Pikmin at a time. It is a Blue Bulbasker, except its scales are a shiny red.
{{clear}}


=== Triple-Eye Bulborb ===
===Rockborb===
{{main|1=Triple-Eye Bulborb}}The Triple-Eye Bulborb is a bulborb that has three eyes.{{clear}}
{{main|Rockborb}}
The Rockborb is similar in size and shape to a Spotty Bulbear, but is made entirely of stone. It hides underground and may resemble an ordinary boulder from a distance, but emerges deceptively quickly when approached. While it is awake, the Rockborb will leap into the air to crush Pikmin underneath its heavy body. Because the Rockborb is made of stone, it is completely invincible; most Pikmin are unable to get a hold of its hide. Only certain types of Pikmin are able to weather its rocky covering and make it vulnerable to attack.
{{clear}}


=== Tropical Bulborb ===
===Sausageborb===
{{main|1=Tropical Bulborb}}The Tropical Bulborb is a vibrant bulborb that lives in coastal areas.{{clear}}
{{main|Sausageborb}}
The Sausageborb superficially resembles an Empress Bulblax, but its massive size comes from its massive appetite. This creature will try to eat Pikmin directly in front of it, or simply crush them under its bulk. In a pinch, it will burrow underground and reemerge somewhere else to attack from a different angle. The key to fighting the Sausageborb is to get behind it and attack its vulnerable rear end without getting crushed as it rolls around.
{{clear}}


=== Two-Headed Bulborb ===
===Spotty Goblax===
{{main|1=Two-Headed Bulborb}}The Two-Headed Bulborb is a bulborb that has two heads.{{clear}}
{{main|Spotty Goblax}}
The Spotty Goblax is a large member of the grub-dog family, being roughly the size of the average bulborb, but longer. Like its much larger relative, the Emperor Bulblax, the Spotty Goblax lies buried underground until a leader or their Pikmin comes near. When a target approaches, the Spotty Goblax will lunge from its hiding spot under the ground with its mouth agape, trying to scoop up a group of Pikmin. If its lunge attack is successful, it will instantly burrow back into the ground where it lands. If its attack fails, it will wander around on the surface, attacking any nearby Pikmin or leaders. Its movement speed, however, is considerably slow. After wandering on the surface for long enough, the Spotty Goblax will find a suitable location to burrow into the ground again.
{{clear}}


=== Whiptongue Bulborb ===
===Stubborn Bulblon===
{{main|Whiptongue Bulborb}}The Whiptongue Bulborb is a bulborb that has a elongated tongue to lick up Pikmin.{{clear}}
{{main|Stubborn Bulblon}}
Stubborn Bulblons are ferocious grub-dogs that are slightly larger than a [[Fiery Bulblax]].

===Xyynog Bulbzerg===
{{main|Yellow Bulborb}}The Yellow Bulborb is a bulborb with a yellow-colored backside, usually harnessing electric abilities.{{clear}}
{{main|Xyynog Bulbzerg}}
The Xyynog Bulbzerg is a black-colored Bulborb with light blue spots and red eyes. The defining feature between all Bulbzergs is the pair of muscular arms under their body. This pair of arms is black at the base, and light blue at the hands. The Xyynog Bulbzerg is a well known insomniac, and will spend all day staying at one spot, eccentrically looking around for easy prey, like Dwarf Bulborbs or Pikmin. When it spots one, it will rush to it and attack it. When Pikmin are launched on it, any immunities the Pikmin has will be temporarily wiped.

To do: Populate the page, and update the page to follow the family article guidelines.
This article relates to the official games. See Pikipedia's "grub-dog family" article for more official information.
Not to be confused with grub-hog family or grub-cat family.

The grub-dog family contains many species ranging from mammalian, fish-like, and even robotic. Members of this family are frequently mimicked by those of the breadbug family.

Members

Bulbears

Alpha Bulbear

Main article: Alpha Bulbear

The Alpha Bulbear is a large grub-dog that can crush and eat Pikmin. The spikes on its backside can impale Pikmin.

Bulbear Larva

Main article: Bulbear Larva

Bulbear Larvae are newborn bulbears sometimes birthed by Empress Bulbears. Despite looking slightly different, having the characteristic lips of bulbears, the only difference between them and Bulborb Larvae is that Bulbear Larvae are a bit faster; the same tactics and cautions used for Bulborb Larvae apply here as well. They burst upon defeat, but will sometimes release nectar.

Dino Bulbear

Main article: Dino Bulbear

The Dino Bulbear is a medium-sized Bulbear with vibrant colors. The Dino Bulbear patrols several set paths searching for prey, instead of passively feeding on creatures that wander into an unlimited territorial range.

Dwarf Bulbear

Main article: Dwarf Bulbear

Dwarf Spotty Bulbears resemble miniature Spotty Bulbears, but unlike most other dwarf bulborbs, are actually juvenile bulbears. Bulbears, in particular, are known for hunting along set patrol routes in search of prey, but these immature grub-dogs do not yet have established routes, and thus rely on their parent to guide them towards food. When by themselves, Dwarf Bulbears will behave just like dwarf bulborbs, but if an adult bulbear happens to stroll by, these eager young creatures will bark and immediately fall into line behind the beast.

Dwarf Green Bulbear

Main article: Dwarf Green Bulbear

The Dwarf Green Bulbear is like a pack leader for dwarf bulbears, but will also follow Green Bulbears. Most of the time, it's just found with other Dwarf Green Bulbears. It is able to command the dwarf bulbears to fight for it or retreat, but otherwise, it is identical to them in every way.

Dwarf Red Bulbear

Main article: Dwarf Red Bulbear

Emperor Bulbear

Main article: Emperor Bulbear

The Emperor Bulbear is both smaller and weaker than the Emperor Bulblax, but is no less ravenous and can still eat a large number of Pikmin if underestimated. It doesn't have any kind of protection on its back, so it can be damaged from all sides. At low health, the Emperor Bulbear will try to squash Pikmin with a high jump, but it has a long windup and cooldown, so it is still fairly easy to avoid compared to the Emperor Bulblax's jump.

Empress Bulbear

Main article: Empress Bulbear

The Empress Bulbear is a stronger variant of the Empress Bulblax. It behaves extremely similarly, but has a few additional attacks; most notably, it can attack Pikmin directly in front of it, either by biting or heaving its weight forward to crush them. The Empress Bulbear may also spawn Bulbear Larvae or cause boulders to fall from the ceiling. The same tactics used to fell an Empress Bulblax are applicable here, but with more caution advised due to this beast's more vicious tendencies.

Giga Bulbear

Main article: Giga Bulbear

The biggest of all the bulbears, the Giga Bulbear is the size of an Emperor Bulblax and is encountered in a very large arena. Because of its enormous size, it is able to devour an entire team of Pikmin in one bite, so approaching it carelessly is extremely ill-advised.

Granite Bulbear

Main article: Granite Bulbear

Green Bulbear

Main article: Green Bulbear

What a Spotty Bulbear is to Dwarf Bulbears, the Green Bulbear is to Spotty Bulbears. Slightly larger than a Spotty Bulbear, it can eat fifteen Pikmin at once, and has double the stamina of a Spotty Bulbear. It will also regenerate health after death, meaning its corpse must be disposed of quickly. Because Green Bulbears are commonly accompanied by Spotty Bulbears, which are, in turn, followed by Dwarf Bulbears, they are among the most dangerous of all lesser grub-dogs.

Those large eyeballs help this creature see in dark or hazardous environments. This creature is a very dangerous predator, as it will be after you as soon as a day stars or a s soon as you touch down on a sublevel. Luckily though, it has smaller health than other species. But unluckily, it's large mouth makes it able to eat more Pikmin than the average Bulbear.

Red Bulbear

Main article: Red Bulbear

The Red Bulbear is very similar to the Spotty Bulbear, but is set apart by its nocturnal nature; the Red Bulbear sleeps during the day like most bulborbs. In effect, it is a stronger version of the Red Bulborb, and is marginally stronger than a Spotty Bulbear. Dwarf Red Bulbears also accompany this creature in great numbers, also sleeping nearby.

Spotty Bulbear

Main article: Spotty Bulbear

Spotty Bulbears are creatures that resemble bulborbs in appearance but have several differences. They are a bit shorter, with rounded snouts, large, chapped lips, and a wide mouth which allows them to gobble up many more Pikmin. From a distance, they are easily distinguishable by their tan faces and black bodies with red spots. Often, a Spotty Bulbear is followed by a group of Dwarf Bulbears.

Vampire Bulbear

Main article: Vampire Bulbear

Vampire Bulbears possess much more contrast in their coloration than ordinary Spotty Bulbears do. They possess more vibrant reds, deeper blacks, and paler flesh. On top of that, Vampiric Bulbears also possess striking red eyes that can easily be seen in darkness. The whites of their eyes are a deep black hue as well. After having approached its prey, Vampiric Bulbears lunge forward in an attempt to consume it, usually grabbing hold of its meal. If it had been harmed, anything the Vampiric Bulbear eats will restore a portion of its health. Additionally, the Vampiric Bulbear will recover slightly faster after death than an ordinary Spotty Bulbear does.

Watery Bulbear

Main article: Watery Bulbear

The Watery Bulbear is a close relative of the Spotty Bulbear and the Watery Bulblax.

They can be found wandering an area, patrolling an established path in search of food. Mature Bulbmin, acting as a leader, are usually followed by up to ten juvenile Bulbmin. These wild juveniles can be used like normal Pikmin by leaders. The mature Bulbmin acts like a Bulborb, in that it will pursue and eat Pikmin. After defeating it, the smaller ones go into a panic. They are not dangerous, but whistling at them will instantly bring them into line under the leader's command, and they become part of the Pikmin swarm.

Yellow Bulbmin

Main article: Yellow Bulbmin

The Yellow Bulbmin is a young Yellow Bulborb that is being controlled by the same parasitic Pikmin that controls Bulbmin. It roams the map, with five little Yellow Bulbmin following it.

Ancient Bulblax

Main article: Ancient Bulblax

The Ancient Bulblax is a remarkably-aged Emperor Bulblax that is as large as it is old. A multitude of plant life grows upon its back, including several Burgeoning Spiderworts. The Ancient Bulblax's voice is weak and its legs are frail, and so it cannot roar nor jump. Its eyesight and hearing are also poor, which causes the mighty beast to blindly wander around its territory in search of its prey. Because of its sheer size, the Ancient Bulblax can use its tongue to eat an insurmountable quantity Pikmin at once. As the behemoth walks, the berries of the Burgeoning Spiderworts on its back may fall to the ground below and burst upon impact, which may stun or topple anything standing nearby. Pikmin and leaders are most often affected by this, but enemies too can be affected.

If the Aura Bulblax is awoken, flee to a safe location and stay there until it returns to its resting spot and continues its slumber.

Bomblax

Main article: Bomblax

It isn't as large as the Empress Bulblax, but can roll over to attack Pikmin, even that being not a very effective attack from himself. His body is entirely segmented, and destroyed a part of it may defeat it, or lead the creature to try capturing his other body pieces.

Darkfreeze Bulblax

Main article: Darkfreeze Bulblax

The Darkfreeze Bulblax is a bulblax infected by the Darkfreeze, recognizable by its dark coloration and vibrant blue veins, all encased in a frozen shell.

When the Darkfreeze Bulblax eats Pikmin, it also lets out some frozen breath from the sides of its mouth that freezes Pikmin in close proximity solid.

Emperor Bulblax

Main article: Emperor Bulblax

The Emperor Bulblax resembles a flabby yellow bulborb with small red eyes and a large, moss-covered backside. Its attacks include licking the ground with its tongue with the intent to eat any Pikmin that happen to be there, licking its face to get rid of offending Pikmin, and jumping into the air to crush and shake off Pikmin.

Empress Bulblax

Main article: Empress Bulblax

The Flying Bulblax has no elemental affinity, so it can be physically touched by any kind of Pikmin without harm. However, it always flies high enough in the air that only Yellow Pikmin can consistently be thrown at it. Another viable tactic is to trick the Flying Bulblax into ramming into a wall as it dives, which downs it immediately and leaves it vulnerable to attack for a good amount of time.

Pink Ivy Bulborb

Main article: Darkfreeze Dumple

A Water Dumple infected by the Darkfreeze. As far as Darkfreeze enemies go, the Darkfreeze Dumple is one of the least extravagant, but it is still much faster than a regular Water Dumple and can eat several more Pikmin in a single bite.

They are a close relative of the Water Dumple, having the same general body shape and behavioral characteristics. Like Water Dumples, Gummed Dumples are found on land and in water, waiting idly until a leader or their Pikmin draw near, where they will begin giving chase.

Main article: Jungle Dumple

The Jungle Dumple is possibly the missing link between bulborbs and Water Dumples, as it still possesses legs in addition to the standard Water Dumple anatomy.

The Rock-Clinger Water Dumple spends most of its time stuck to the sides of rocks and watching Pikmin and leaders walk by. The Rock-Clinger Water Dumple is generally docile and will only attack in self-defense; if it is made to shake attacking Pikmin off of its body, it will bury them, and subsequently start eating the buried Pikmin. It's generally safe to just avoid these enemies because they make no effort to attack Pikmin unprovoked, but they are also very easy to defeat and carry back for Pikmin seeds.

Sky Dumple

Main article: Sky Dumple

Unlike other Water Dumples, the Sky Dumple is a harmless filter-feeder that floats in the air due to its gas-filled head and makes no effort to attack Pikmin.

Springtrap Dumple

Main article: Springtrap Dumple

The Springtrap Dumple is longer than other Water Dumples. True to its name, it is an ambush predator that springs out of the ground with extreme speed to grab Pikmin that pass by it, then returns to its burrow and eats them.

Tad Dumple

Main article: Tad Dumple

The Tad Dumple is named for the tadpole-like tail on its back. It also possesses tiny feet that make it more mobile.

Toxic Dumple

Main article: Toxic Dumple

The Toxic Dumple is set apart from a regular Water Dumple by its white color and the trail of poison gas it leaves as it moves. The Toxic Dumple is also slower than most Water Dumples, but its poison trail makes it particularly annoying in the water, as Blue Pikmin have no defense against poison.

Warp Dumple

Main article: Warp Dumple

The Warp Dumple is a rather tricky foe that can teleport around to confuse its prey. Looking like a large, yellow Water Dumple, it moves slowly but can warp over to its prey and gobble up over five in a single lunge. If your Pikmin attack it, it will simply teleport away, causing them to fall off and deflowering them. Luckily, if there is a large enough number of Pikmin attached to it, it will be unable to teleport.

Water Dumple

Main article: Water Dumple

The Warp Dumple is a relative of the Water Dumple that is noticeable for its large size and uniform yellow coloration. When it sees Pikmin, it moves through the water with such speed that it appears to teleport forward. It can also do this while Pikmin are attacking this to shake them off its body. Because of its size, the Warp Dumple can eat many Pikmin at a time, but it is also a bigger target and can be weighed down by enough Pikmin that it is rendered unable to move quickly to shake them off.

Beefy Bulblblub

Main article: Beefy Bulblblub

It has two curved horns over its eyes and dark red pupils with black scleras. It has long eyestalks and a very big and bulky body. This is colored dark brownish-red and has an ancient-looking cracked appearance. Its head is also abnormally large and its mouth is filled with interlocking fangs. Its feet are also very big. It has two massive, cherry-red legs with very wide clawed feet. When found, it will usually be in a very deep sleep. It sleeps standing up on its feet so it gets a head start when it wakes up, which happens as soon as a Pikmin attacks it. The creature will wake up with a sudden jerk, throwing off all of the Pikmin attached to it. It will open its enormous, glowing eyes, look around and then lock onto the leader.

Billaborb

Main article: Billaborb

The Billaborb is an aquatic species of grub-dog that has resistance to muddy water. It can swim after squadrons taking rafts across this water and use its nose to overturn them. It then will try to eat the Pikmin that fail to return to the raft's safety in time.

Blue Bulbasker

Main article: Blue Bulbasker

The Blue Bulbasker is a blue, aquatic grub-dog. This creature has sharp, jagged fangs, as well as fierce orange eyes that are not supported by eye stalks. It also sports large, fin-like flaps on the sides of its face which partially conceal its gills, meaning it is amphibious. This is supported by the fact that it treads in the shallow waters of The Fountain Valley. It eats six Pikmin at a time but does not try to shake them off. Instead, it will continue attempting to feed on Pikmin until it is defeated.

Blukorb

Main article: Blukorb

The Blukorb is a bulborb-shaped mass of plasm. It acts like a Red Bulborb and leaves no remains when it dies.

Bulbush

Main article: Bulbush

The Bulbush is mostly like any other big Bulborb, but is distinguished by its green coloration. Notably, its back is covered in symbiotic moss that makes it look a bit like a shrub when asleep. This slippery moss covering causes Pikmin to have a poor grip on the Bulbush's back, and they will fall off more easily. Attacking the Bulbush's face and eyes is advised, but watch out for its mouth, as it is just as ravenous as any other Bulborb.

Cavernous Bulbat

Main article: Cavernous Bulbat

The Cavernous Bulbat is a highly divergent grub-dog thoroughly adapted for flight. It roosts on walls in groups until approached, then swoops down to snatch Pikmin and eat them. Their numbers make them somewhat dangerous, but Cavernous Bulbats also do not have much health and can be easily grounded by a few thrown Pikmin.

"Definitely a Bulborb"

Main article: Eye-Stalker Bulbeel

The Eye-Stalker Bulbeel is an aquatic variant of grub-dog. It strongly resembles a purple eel with red fins, light blue stripes on its sides, and a tan belly. Its mouth appears small and puckered when not attacking. They are found emerging from underwater pits. Eye-Stalker Bulbeels attack by lunging directly towards Pikmin or leaders with their mouth wide open to eat them, after which they will retreat. They poke their heads out before attacking, giving leaders a chance to get away.

Fungiborb

Main article: Fungiborb

The Fungiborb is a grub-dog that is capable of transforming Pikmin into Mushroom Pikmin. It has brown skin, lavender eyes, and a large spotted mushroom cap protecting its backside. Pikmin that are thrown at this cap harmlessly bounce off of it, making attacking the Fungiborb's face its only effective means of attack. Whenever the Fungiborb shakes Pikmin off of itself, the cap on its back will drop spores, turning Pikmin nearby or under the creature into Mushroom Pikmin.

Honey Bulborb

Main article: Honey Bulborb

This creature has honey dripping from its mouth as it tries to chomp your Pikmin. The honey that drips from its mouth can slow your Pikmin leaving them vulnerable to being eaten!

Rockborb

Main article: Rockborb

The Rockborb is similar in size and shape to a Spotty Bulbear, but is made entirely of stone. It hides underground and may resemble an ordinary boulder from a distance, but emerges deceptively quickly when approached. While it is awake, the Rockborb will leap into the air to crush Pikmin underneath its heavy body. Because the Rockborb is made of stone, it is completely invincible; most Pikmin are unable to get a hold of its hide. Only certain types of Pikmin are able to weather its rocky covering and make it vulnerable to attack.

Sausageborb

Main article: Sausageborb

The Sausageborb superficially resembles an Empress Bulblax, but its massive size comes from its massive appetite. This creature will try to eat Pikmin directly in front of it, or simply crush them under its bulk. In a pinch, it will burrow underground and reemerge somewhere else to attack from a different angle. The key to fighting the Sausageborb is to get behind it and attack its vulnerable rear end without getting crushed as it rolls around.

Spotty Goblax

Main article: Spotty Goblax

The Spotty Goblax is a large member of the grub-dog family, being roughly the size of the average bulborb, but longer. Like its much larger relative, the Emperor Bulblax, the Spotty Goblax lies buried underground until a leader or their Pikmin comes near. When a target approaches, the Spotty Goblax will lunge from its hiding spot under the ground with its mouth agape, trying to scoop up a group of Pikmin. If its lunge attack is successful, it will instantly burrow back into the ground where it lands. If its attack fails, it will wander around on the surface, attacking any nearby Pikmin or leaders. Its movement speed, however, is considerably slow. After wandering on the surface for long enough, the Spotty Goblax will find a suitable location to burrow into the ground again.

Stubborn Bulblon

Main article: Stubborn Bulblon

Stubborn Bulblons are ferocious grub-dogs that are slightly larger than a Fiery Bulblax.

Main article: Trapmaw

The Trapmaw is a unique relative of the Grub-dog family that buries itself underground with its mouth wide open to capture prey.

Xyynog Bulbzerg

Main article: Xyynog Bulbzerg

The Xyynog Bulbzerg is a black-colored Bulborb with light blue spots and red eyes. The defining feature between all Bulbzergs is the pair of muscular arms under their body. This pair of arms is black at the base, and light blue at the hands. The Xyynog Bulbzerg is a well known insomniac, and will spend all day staying at one spot, eccentrically looking around for easy prey, like Dwarf Bulborbs or Pikmin. When it spots one, it will rush to it and attack it. When Pikmin are launched on it, any immunities the Pikmin has will be temporarily wiped.
