{{transcript|Perfectly cooked, golden brown, and fluffy. It must be a fresh-baked loaf of bread. Oh, my mistake! This is the wildly unique Giant Breadbug, with the texture and vibrancy only a living creature can possess. Don't let your eyes and gut deceive you.

=== Olimar's notes (''Pikmin 4'') ===
{{transcript|This gargantuan species of the greater Breadbug family has a torso so perfectly square that it almost seems like it was formed in a mold.
 
For a brief period after birth, the Giant Breadbug competes for food with smaller Breadbugs, but upon reaching maturity, it seeks out much larger prey. This is the primary reason two species with similar feeding habits can coexist in the same habitat.
 
Hordes of Pikmin appear to pose the only plausible threat to this massive creature's life.|block=y}}
 
=== Louie's notes (''Pikmin 4'') ===
{{transcript|Although cooking this colossal beast yields a mountain of meat, every ounce of it is flavorless. Only suitable for intergalactic all-you-can-eat buffets.|block=y}}

パンモドキ科の中では大型だが、基本的な性質は小型のマキパンモドキとほとんど変わらない。体が成長するに伴い、大きな獲物を狙うようになる。
 
特徴 その1 力が強い
:引っ張る力が強い。

特徴 その2 分厚い表皮
:分厚く頑丈な表皮を持っていて、横からの衝撃には強い。

'''Translation'''
{{transcript|
Although it is a large species within the Breadbug family, its basic characteristics are almost identical to those of the smaller Breadbug. As it grows older, it begins to target larger prey.
 
Feature #1: High strength
:Its pulling power is strong.
:(Image text: It is equivalent to 3 Breadbugs, or 30 Pikmin)
 
Feature #2: Thick epidermis
:The thick, sturdy epidermis is resistant to lateral impacts.
:(Image text: Like the Breadbug, it is vulnerable to pressure from above)

Finally, the only other way to damage it is to [[Ultra-bitter spray|petrify]] it and then just send any Pikmin to attack it. However, for some bizarre reason, after the Giant Breadbug hits its head on the Research Pod once, it becomes impossible to petrify it from there on out, until the cave is exited.

Defeating the Giant Breadbug in ''Pikmin 4'' is almost identical to ''Pikmin 2'', except that it's much harder to damage them with Purple Pikmin. It is easier to throw Yellow Pikmin on top of it, as 10 of them will be enough to crush it and deal a large amount of damage. They will also charge your party after being hit by the [[S.S. Beagle]], knocking down any Pikmin (or [[Oatchi]]) in their path. This won't kill them, but it will cause them to lose their flowers. This charge is also capable of killing other enemies.{{cite web|https://twitter.com/CraftedPbody/status/1705648375855804796|Video of the Giant Breadbug charging into other enemies|Twitter|published={{date|23|September|2023}}|retrieved={{date|23|September|2023}}}}, and works similarly to Oatchi's [[charge]]. The Giant Breadbug can also shake off Pikmin that it is engaged in tug-of-war with, making it much more difficult to successfully steal an object from it compared to in ''Pikmin 2''. It cannot steal objects Oatchi has [[Oatchi#Swallow|swallowed]], although note that swallowing an object a Giant Breadbug is actively carrying will enrage it and cause it to charge.

This theme also appears in the [[Plunder Palace]] in {{p4}}, but stops when the two Giant Breadbugs are defeated, whereas in ''Pikmin 2'', it continues whether they are defeated or not.

*In ''Pikmin 4'', a Giant Breadbug will not charge at your squad or Oatchi if collecting the item it's grabbing onto triggers a cutscene. This is most commonly seen by rescuing a castaway.
