'''Bulborbs''' ({{j|アカチャッピー|Chappii|Chappy}}) are common enemies in the {{pg}}, and they are among the most well-known enemies in the series. They were originally called '''Spotty Bulborbs''' in {{p}}, and then '''Red Bulborbs''' in {{p2}}, before being simply called Bulborbs in {{p3}} and later games. Due to their prominence in the games, they are often just as much a staple for the games as [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] themselves, getting significant exposure via marketing and spin-off media. | |||

In most games, this nocturnal creature will sleep out in the open, exposing itself to Pikmin attacks. Bulborbs are generally surprisingly apathetic creatures and won't arise from their sleep even if one of their own is under attack. That being said, however, [[Dwarf Bulborbs]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' will let out a screech when agitated, awaking any nearby Bulborbs. If their eyestalks are attacked, they will panic and break off whatever they are doing to shake away their assailants. | |||
In {{hp}}, a Bulborb takes on the role of the boss of the [[Brilliant Garden]]. It is larger and moves slower, but is also more aggressive. When defeated, it drops the [[Flashy Monument]]. | |||

[[ | [[Group move|Swarming]] it with a large group of 50 or so Pikmin, preferably [[Red Pikmin|Reds]] due to their high attack power, proves quite effective. If only a few Pikmin are available, they should be [[throw]]n onto the Bulborb's back repeatedly while retreating if the enemy starts charging at them. Waiting until it goes back to sleep takes longer, but is a lot safer. If [[bomb-rock]]s are used, the Bulborb will die with two blasts. If you attack its back it will usually do a quarter-turn right, hiding some of its back from your current position. | ||

A few Purple Pikmin can cause serious damage, especially if they stun the Bulborb.

If the Pikmin army is very small, | If the Pikmin army is very small, the creature can also be woken up and made to chase the leader until it leaves its territory, at which point it will turn around and return to its original sleeping spot. At this point, the player must follow it and wait for it to reach its spot. Once there it will yawn, fall asleep, then wake up and attack again if provoked. Beginning the attack at the moment the creature yawns provides the player with a few crucial seconds in which the Bulborb is entirely immobilized and harmless. | ||

The first game's tactic of swarming the creature from behind returns in this game, though here it is far more effective.

Olimar starts the fight with 20 [[Red Pikmin]]. The objective is to deplete the Bulborb's health by throwing Pikmin at its backside. If the Bulborb is facing towards Olimar, then wait for it to bend over and throw a Pikmin at its eye. This will stun it and give you time to run under it to the other side. Once on the other side, proceed to throw the Pikmin onto its vulnerable backside until it shakes them off. The Bulborb will periodically jump into the blades of grass in the backdrop and shuffle around in them until eventually popping back out at the last place Olimar was standing. The player can tell when it will jump out because right before it does it will rustle in a single place. If the Bulborb is attacked once it has shaken off any attacking Pikmin, then it'll slowly turn around to face the group, snarling aggressively, before swooping around once in a circle, attempting to snatch up any Pikmin. After it does this, it'll proceed to do its attack from the grass. | |||

Olimar mentions the Bulborbs having a set of mandibles. Mandibles are a pair of appendages near an insect's mouth, used for grinding and chewing food. The so-called mandibles Olimar mentions in his notes look nothing like normal mandibles and are instead most likely saber-teeth, used for breaking exoskeletons of prey insects and digging through the soil for roots. (That being said, "mandible" is also a technical term for the jaws, in which case its use is unremarkable.) Their diet is, however, quite the mystery, as they are equipped with eating both animal and vegetable life, but they are known to fully ignore [[Flitterbie family|Spectralids]]. | Olimar mentions the Bulborbs having a set of mandibles.

It seems that the juvenile Bulborb is the favored host of the parasitic Pikmin | It seems that the juvenile Bulborb is the favored host of the parasitic Pikmin known as [[Bulbmin]]. This type of [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]] appears to control its host, causing the animal to behave less like a Bulborb and much more like a Pikmin, following a [[leader]] (which is naturally an older Bulbmin) and hunting in packs. Bulborbs are not observed at the two stages of development displayed by Bulbmin anywhere else in-game (unlike the [[Spotty Bulbear]]), so it is unknown whether Bulbmin are a common stage in Bulborb initial development or not, as symbiotic cooperation from the parasite would give this slightly weaker form of [[Grub-dog]] an advantage in the subterranean environment that all stages of the Bulborb species are found in. | ||
==Development history== | ==Development history== | ||
Bulborbs were created before the concept for | Bulborbs were created before the concept for ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' was established. When ''[[Adam and Eve]]'' was being worked on, the Bulborb had been created to serve as a mammoth-like beast. When the concept for the game was scrapped, the Bulborbs were reused for ''Pikmin''. As clued by the internal name for this enemy and the [[Dwarf Bulborb]], the Dwarf Bulborb may have very well been the original Bulborb, and the Bulborb was created afterward in development. Although the "mammoth" properties of the beast, as mentioned by [[Shigeru Miyamoto]], suggest that the first "Bulborb" creature to be developed was large, and hence, not the Dwarf Bulborb. | ||
Their name in ''Pikmin'' is "Spotty Bulborb", and at this point, only one type of Bulborb was planned to exist (besides the false variations of Bulborb, the [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s). For {{p2}}, it was decided that further types of Bulborb would be developed, but because they would all be Bulborbs and have spots on their backs, the original one needed a rename. Due to it being red while the others are [[Orange Bulborb|orange]] and [[Hairy Bulborb|hairy]], the name "Red Bulborb" was given to this enemy. | |||
{{ | |||
In the [[New Play Control! Pikmin|''New Play Control!'' remake of ''Pikmin'']], their sounds were changed to be much higher-pitched, although this is likely an oversight. | |||
For ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', perhaps with the purpose to simplify things, its name became known simply as "Bulborb", despite two other types of Bulborb existing in the game: the [[Orange Bulborb]] and the [[Whiptongue Bulborb]]. In an attempt to flesh out this iconic enemy, its behavior was made slightly more complex in this game, in the form of it reacting to Pikmin thrown at its eyes with a flinch, and by looking at Pikmin while it chases them. These behaviors also happen with the other Bulborbs. | |||
