'''Hairy Bulborbs''' ({{j|ケチャッピー|Ke Chappī|Fur Chappy}}) are enemies in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. They are similar in appearance to [[Red Bulborb]]s, but have white backs with blue spots and a lot of fluffy, white fur. As the creature's [[health]] begins to fall, so does its hair, revealing its blue spots, making it more closely resemble its [[Snow Bulborb|Breadbug mimic]], though larger in size. Hairy Bulborbs are similar in most respects to other mature [[Bulborb]]s, but tend to live in colder environments. They have less health and are slightly more aggressive than the Red Bulborb, but can be defeated using similar techniques. The [[Whiptongue Bulborb]] in'' [[Pikmin 3]]'' is very similar in coloration. | |||

Without purples, defeating one is trickier; rather than [[Group move|swarming]] it, try continuously tossing [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], preferable [[Red Pikmin|reds]], onto its back. If necessary, using an [[ultra-bitter spray]] to petrify the beast and swarming it with a fairly large army makes for an easy battle. | ||

The defining characteristic of this Bulborb is its hair, hence the name "hairy". Its Japanese name, {{j|ケチャッピー|Ke Chappī}}, simply translates to "Fur Chappy", Chappy being the Japanese name for Bulborb. Its scientific name, ''Oculus kageyamii folliculus'', shares the ''Oculus kageyammi'' species name from other [[Grub-dog family|grub-dogs]], and ''folliculus'' is Latin for "follicle"; the {{w|hair follicle}} is the mammalian organ that produces hairs. | |||
Internally, this enemy is called <code>yellowchappy</code>. The reason for this is because initially, [[Pikmin 2 prerelease information#Early Bulborbs|yellow and blue Bulborbs]] were meant to be included in the game. What started off as a yellow Bulborb eventually became the Hairy Bulborb. | |||

*In the [[Pikmin 2 prerelease information|''Pikmin 2'' prototype]], Louie strangely seems to refer to the Hairy Bulborb as a bird, saying things such as to "pluck the feathers" instead of the hair, or mentioning that the foil should "protect the bird from scorching".{{cite web|http://tcrf.net/Proto:Pikmin_2/Piklopedia_Entries/Louie%27s_Notes#02_-_Hairy_Bulborb|Proto:Pikmin 2/Piklopedia Entries/Louie's Notes|The Cutting Room Floor}} It's possible that in the game's very early stages, the Hairy Bulborb was once a bird-related creature. | *In the [[Pikmin 2 prerelease information|''Pikmin 2'' prototype]], Louie strangely seems to refer to the Hairy Bulborb as a bird, saying things such as to "pluck the feathers" instead of the hair, or mentioning that the foil should "protect the bird from scorching".{{cite web|http://tcrf.net/Proto:Pikmin_2/Piklopedia_Entries/Louie%27s_Notes#02_-_Hairy_Bulborb|Proto:Pikmin 2/Piklopedia Entries/Louie's Notes|The Cutting Room Floor}} It's possible that in the game's very early stages, the Hairy Bulborb was once a bird-related creature. | ||

Instead of the Bulborb being grilled in foil, it says to brew the hair into a drink which, according to the notes, increases blood circulation. This might refer to how the hair keeps the Bulborb's vital organs warm, as stated in Olimar's notes. | ||
