The '''Albino Dwarf Bulborb''' ({{j|コチャッピーモドキ|Ko Chappī Modoki|Pseudo Small Chappy}}) is a nocturnal [[enemy]] found in {{p4}}. Albino Dwarf Bulborbs resemble [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s in appearance, but have white to red ombré back instead of a spotted one, similar to [[Bulborb Larva]]e, and additionally have slightly larger snouts compared to most Dwarf Bulborbs. These differences largely stem from both their very young age, being the first molt of a Bulborb Larva, and because they are true members of the [[grub-dog family]] rather than [[Breadbug family|breadbug]] mimics.
'''Albino Dwarf Bulborbs''' are small nocturnal [[enemy|enemies]] found in {{p4}}.
 
These enemies resemble [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s in appearance, but have white to red ombré back instead of a spotted one. These Dwarf Bulborbs are only active during the night; therefore, they are only found within [[cave]]s or on night expeditions. Albino Dwarf Bulborbs can be easily defeated by [[swarm]]ing them, or by [[throw]]ing a single [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] directly on top of them.
Despite being their young, adult [[Bulborbs]] are known to cannibalize them. To avoid this, they are only active [[night expedition|at night]] and in [[cave]]rns, where the poor visibility allows them to evade predation. Albino Dwarf Bulborbs are noticeably tougher than Dwarf Bulborbs, requiring two direct Pikmin throws to the back to dispatch.

==Behavior==
==Behavior==
Albino Dwarf Bulborbs spend most of their time wandering around a small area idly. When they notice a [[leader]] or [[Pikmin]], they will begin to chase after them. Like most Bulborbs, if led outside of their territory, they will give up the chase and return to it to resume idly wandering. Albino Dwarf Bulborbs attack by attempting to eat Pikmin. It can only grab and eat a singular Pikmin with each bite and they take a good amount of time to chew and swallow their catch, allowing a swift player to rescue a bitten Pikmin before it is consumed. It can also shake Pikmin off if it is being attacked. When killed, it will safely release any Pikmin in its mouth that it had yet to fully consume.
Albino Dwarf Bulborbs walk around idly, and when a [[leader]] or [[Pikmin]] draws near they will begin to chase after them until they are out of their territory range, in which case they will go back to their territory and resume walking around. An Albino Dwarf Bulborb will attempt to eat Pikmin close enough to it, and will only grab one Pikmin with a single bite. It can also shake Pikmin off if it is being attacked. Upon death, it will release living Pikmin in its mouth that are yet to be eaten.
 
Exclusively on the second sublevel of the [[Engulfed Castle]], they can be found following an adult [[Bulborb]] around, much like how [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s follow [[Spotty Bulbear]]s, suggesting an occasional reliance on an adult grub-dog to hunt. It is also likely a reference to [[Bulbmin]], as Sublevel 2 of the [[Submerged Castle]] contains them, and the controllable Bulbmin follow their leader in a similar way.
 
==Locations==
===Caves===
*[[Kingdom of Beasts]]
**Three Albino Dwarf Bulborbs can be seen on sublevel 4. They are all found in the area opposite the [[S.S. Beagle]] behind the [[iron fence]]. The three of them share this space with a [[Whiptongue Bulborb]]. The best way to reach them is either by lowering the iron fence with the button or by swimming through the small body of water as it allows for [[Oatchi]] to be brought along making the fight easier.
 
*[[Engulfed Castle]]
**Six Albino Dwarf Bulborbs can be seen on sublevel 2. Two are found directly below the ledge the S.S. Beagle lands at. The remaining four are found past the [[dirt wall]] down the slope and can be seen in the wide open area near the [[Bulborb]] and some [[Spotcap]]s and a [[Kingcap]].


===Night Expedition===
==Appearance==
*[[Sun-Speckled Terrace]]
Albino Dwarf Bulborbs are very similar in appearance to other Dwarf Bulborbs, with the only visual difference is the white to red ombré back instead of the more familiar spotted one. This is due to the fact that they are the larval form of a Bulborb after its first molt.
**Twenty four Albino Dwarf Bulborbs are in the 'Ancient Arches' expedition.
*[[Hero's Hideaway]]
**Eighteen Albino Dwarf Bulborbs are in the 'Stargazers's Spot' expedition.

===Pikmin===
===Pikmin===
Auto lock on makes squishing the beasts a breeze, though charging is still effective. They take 2 direct hits to kill, which you will need to mentally count when fighting swarms of them. If possible, use [[Purple Pikmin]] to easily kill hordes with its ground pound.
If you have a large group of Pikmin available, you can simply swarm it. Alternatively, aim and throw a bunch of Pikmin at its back. If a Pikmin lands directly on top of it, it will die instantly. If a Pikmin is caught by one, then it can easily be saved by throwing another Pikmin onto the creature's back. As the enemy dies, any captured Pikmin will be released from its mouth.


===Leaders===
===Leaders===
Simply [[punch]]ing while avoiding its attacks is the most effective strategy for leaders, although this takes a noticeable amount of time, even with the Rocket Fist upgrade. Oatchi can handle large groups on his own depending on his upgrades, a very useful tactic during night expeditions. A leveled up rush can instantly kill and pass through large groups as well.

=== Dalmo's Notes ===
{{transcript|Among the naturally charming Dwarf Bulborbs, this one might have the most attractive an well-balanced conformation. When night falls, the eyes of these fascinating creatures emit an intense glow. Whether to mesmerise prey or help it to spot others of its kind, it's an intriguing adaptation. I could stare into those shining eyes forever!|block=y}}
===Olimar's Notes===
{{transcript|A Bulborbs larva after its first molt. Due to its pale coloration, it was assumed to be a mimic when it was first discovered. It was later confirmed to be a true Dwarf Bulborb.


===Louie's notes===
To avoid predation from adult Bulborbs, it spends the majority of the daytime hours hiding underground. It becomes more active at night, when its paler coloration is more difficult to see.

'''Translation'''
{{transcript|
A second instar Bulborb larva. Its spots are faint, and to avoid accidental predation by adults, it hides underground during the day, and at night it emerges above ground and becomes active.
 
Feature #1: A true Dwarf Bulborb
:Because it was discovered later than the Dwarf Bulborb, it was named Albino Dwarf Bulborb, even though it is a real larva.
:(Image text: "Like the adult Bulborb, the tip of the snout is slightly tapered")
 
Feature #2: Which Bulborb?
:Until the second instar, it is difficult to tell which Bulborb larva is which by appearance.
 
Feature #3: Nocturnality
:It becomes active at night, and its eyes glow red like those of the adults.

==Trivia==
*Curiously, despite being true juvenile Bulborbs, the Japanese name for an Albino Dwarf Bulborb still refers to them using the ''psuedo-'' prefix.
**This is also shown in the Korean name, which (when roughly translated) says it's a look-alike to a Dwarf Bulborb.
**Their Chinese name similarly roughly refers to them as "Chappy mimics".
