The '''Frosty Bulborb''' ({{j|キンキンチャッピー|Kinkin Chappī|Ice-Cold Chappy}}) is a large ice [[enemy]] found in {{p4}}. Frosty Bulborbs resemble [[Bulborb]]s in appearance, but are blue in coloration and have ice crystals covering their back and midsection. They act almost identically to other Bulborbs, with the only notable difference being that they can freeze Pikmin other than [[Ice Pikmin]] if the ice crystals on their back have not been melted. Their juvenile form is the [[Dwarf Frosty Bulborb]].

== Behavior ==
== Behavior ==
Frosty Bulborbs act just like other Bulborbs in that they lie asleep on the ground waiting until something wakes them up during the day, but patrol their territory at night. If awoken or they notice prey, they will proceed to change and attack the player and their squad of Pikmin by biting at them, up to a max of five Pikmin per bite, until they have left their territory. They will then stop chasing and return to their territory area and patrol for a little while until falling back to sleep. Since this Bulborb has ice crystals on its back, all Pikmin other than Ice Pikmin or Glow Pikmin will be frozen solid if they touch any part of the Bulborb. The only way to counteract this is to melt the ice using fire. Once the ice has been melted, they act like normal Bulborbs until the ice is regenerated after a little while.

==Appearance==
==Appearance==
Frosty Bulborbs look very similar to normal Bulborb but they are blue in coloration instead of red. Similar to the [[Hairy Bulborb]], the back and the face share similar colors, with the nose being colored separately, in this instance pink. They also have a layer of ice crystals littering their back and midsection. Therefore, their back and spots cannot be seen unless the ice is melted.

*Frosty Bulborbs can freeze other enemies if they stay in contact for long enough. This most commonly happens during [[night expeditions]].
