The '''Breadbug''' ({{j|パンモドキ|Pan Modoki|Pseudo Bread}}) is an [[enemy]] in {{p1}}, {{p2}} and {{p4}}. Breadbugs resemble {{w|Bread roll|bread rolls}}, and are the namesake of the [[Breadbug family]]. They cannot harm leaders or [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] directly, but can drag objects into their nests, making them harder for the player to retrieve. Breadbugs are typically found in underground areas.

A [[boss]] variant of the Breadbug, the [[Giant Breadbug]], appears in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 4''.

Breadbugs cannot be attacked by simply throwing Pikmin at them, [[swarming]], or [[Charge|charging]]. In ''Pikmin'', Olimar can [[punch]] them to damage them, but they will attempt to shake him off if damaged too much. They take a small amount of damage when a Pikmin is [[throw]]n precisely on top of them, and this causes them to roll over and drop the treasure they're carrying in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', or to run around for a while in ''Pikmin 4''.

==Appearance==
Breadbugs, as their name suggests, have a distinct resemblance to rolls of bread. They are bipedal and have small legs with two clawed toes each, and a small snout on the roll-like part of their body. Two eyes are above this nose, tucked under a fold of blubber with a brown color similar to that of a toasted roll. Three bumps of fat are atop their bodies, along their back. In ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', these bumps are smooth, whereas in ''Pikmin 4'' they appear more defined, as if cut with a knife.

In ''[[Pikmin 4]]'', Breadbugs always have a carrying strength of 10. Once the total carrying strength of the Pikmin on the object exceeds 10, the Breadbug will be dragged across the floor. If there aren't enough Pikmin or if there is a tie, the Breadbug can shake Pikmin off the object, similar to when both teams try to carry an object in a [[Dandori Battle]]. The Giant Breadbug has a carrying strength of 30.

====Areas====
Only one Breadbug is present in Story Mode, in [[The Forest Navel]]. It wanders around the area so it doesn't have a set location, but its nest is found near the [[Gravity Jumper]] so it can be spotted there often, such as when carrying back objects or at the start of the day.
*[[The Forest Navel]]
 
**One Breadbug is present in this area. It is initially located towards the south of the map, close to the [[bridge]] leading to the [[Gravity Jumper]]. This is where the Breadbug's nest is found. However, it wanders around the area so it doesn't have a set location but can be seen in this location at the start of the day or when dragging an object back to its nest such as a 1-Pellet.
It is also present in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]], being in both [[The Impact Site]] and The Forest Navel.
====Challenge Mode====
*[[The Impact Site]]
**One Breadbug is present in this challenge mode stage. It's initially found adjacent to the Yellow and Blue [[Onion]] but will wander around the stage. It always heads for the Red 1-Pellet found near where the [[S.S. Dolphin]] lands in story mode, specifically the one next to the [[fire geyser]].
*[[The Forest Navel]]
**One Breadbug is present in this stage. It's initially found to the east of the Red Onion but will also wander around the stage. It always heads for the Blue 1-Pellet found in the landing site.

====Areas====
Breadbugs are only present in the [[Plunder Palace]] cave, on sublevels 1 and 4.
Breadbugs don't appear above ground in ''Pikmin 4''.
====Caves====
*[[Plunder Palace]]
**There are two Breadbugs on sublevel 1. One is located in front of the [[S.S. Beagle]] and adjacent to the pair of [[nectar egg]]s. The other Breadbug is found beyond the previous one, close to the [[Long-Shot Totem]] and [[Disk of Sorrowful Wisdom]]. However, like previous games they do wander around the area looking for treasures and enemy corpses.
**There are three Breadbugs on sublevel 4. One is located to the east of the map, sharing the space with the [[Flighty Joustmite]] closest to the [[Planetary Rubber Cutie]]. The other two can be seen near the other Flightly Joustmite, which is close to the ground-level [[Waddlequaff]]. These three also wander the sublevel.
