Rust Bulblings are a species of grub-dog debuting in Pikmin: Other Frontier. They have a dark orange hide, light gray skin, and red irises, and typically stay in small groups alongside other species of bulblings and dwarf bulborbs. As larvae, Rust Bulblings were fed a diet of metallic compounds that began to naturally form over their bodies, creating an iron shell that rendered them immune to instant death by having a Pikmin thrown directly on top of them. To properly dispatch a Rust Bulbling, it must be swarmed. Otherwise, Rust Bulblings are similar to their ordinary relatives aside from having slightly more vitality.

Notes

Olimar's notes

Like lithopods, Rust Bulblings consume metallic compounds from their parents at a young age, and unlike them, these grub-dogs have the natural ability to create these compounds to form a hide allowing for drastically increased defensive capabilities.

Louie's cooking tips

The metal on their backside can be molded into durable pots and pans, which work wonders on tenderizing the otherwise tough meat.
