*Unlike its other grub-dog relatives, it may not be nocturnal, as it is found awake in the wild, similar to the [[Spotty Bulbear]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. However, in the [[Tropical Wilds]], it is seen scavenging for Pikmin during sunset. This suggests that Whiptongue Bulborbs are cathemeral, meaning they are active at both day and night. This is confirmed with their night activity within ''Pikmin 4''.

*In the [[Pikmin 3 prerelease information|E3 2012 demo]], the corpse of a Whiptongue Bulborb has required 10 Pikmin to carry, while in the final game, it requires 12 Pikmin, and then in ''Pikmin 4'' requiring 10 Pikmin again.
