The '''Whiptongue Bulborb''' is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. It is a member of the [[Grub-dog]] family, but is different from the others in the fact that it has a long tongue that it uses to slurp up [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. Its tongue can catch up to five Pikmin at once, somewhat like the [[Emperor Bulblax]], but quicker and much less destructive. It has a brown face, much in contrast to the paler face of the [[Red Bulborb]], with a long snout at the end that the tongue comes out of, as well as a white body with black spots, and blue eyes.

==Strategy to Defeat==
This Bulborb species attacks with its long, flexible tongue, which allows it to quickly devour Pikmin from much greater distances than other members of the grub-dog family. It doesn't sleep when unaware of the presence of Pikmin. Instead, it will rummage through the ground and sniff around the surrounding area much like a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]].
Like other Grub-dogs in ''Pikmin 3'', its eyeballs are its weakest points; throwing Pikmin at them makes it flinch and shake any attacking Pikmin off. [[Rock Pikmin]] are especially useful when attacking a Whiptongue Bulborb, as they inflict the most damage.


==Gallery==
When leaders or Pikmin are nearby, it will quickly shuffle towards them. If the Pikmin are standing within attack range, it will launch its tongue outward as a means of consuming them. Up to five Pikmin can be snagged at a time by this move. However, if Pikmin are standing beside it or are attacking its feet, it will lap up individual Pikmin one at a time at a slightly slower pace. Just like all other grub-dogs, it can be temporarily incapacitated by throwing Pikmin directly at its eyes.
