'''Jumbo Bulborbs''' ({{j|ジャンボチャッピー|Janbo Chappī|Jumbo Chappy}}) are massive [[enemy|enemies]] found in {{p4}}. | |||
As their name implies, | As their name implies, they are gigantic Bulborbs, dwarfing all other Bulborb species and rivalling the [[Emperor Bulblax]] in terms of sheer size. Outside of the size difference, they appear identical to normal [[Bulborb]]s. Jumbo Bulborbs can be found belowground and during [[night expedition|night expeditions]]. | ||
Unlike most Bulborbs, they are never found sleeping. Instead, they are usually found actively wandering their territory in search of prey, similar to [[Spotty Bulbear]]s. Additionally, they sometimes can be found hiding in foliage, waiting to ambush passing [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. | Unlike most Bulborbs, they are never found sleeping.

Rushing into its back with a large squad of Pikmin on [[Oatchi]] can be a very effective opener, should one be approached undetected. It is especially easy to sneak up behind one if it is hiding, as they don't have particularly good spatial awareness. If Oatchi's Rush has been sufficiently upgraded to stun the Jumbo Bulborb, it is entirely possible, with a sufficiently large Pikmin army, to kill it before it can react. | Rushing into its back with a large squad of Pikmin on [[Oatchi]] can be a very effective opener, should one be approached undetected.

If detected, or in a particularly bad position, locking onto it's back and attempting to circle behind it while throwing Pikmin is another good, if risky, strategy. [[Red Pikmin|Red]] | If detected, or in a particularly bad position, locking onto it's back and attempting to circle behind it while throwing Pikmin is another good, if risky, strategy. [[Red Pikmin|Red]], [[Purple Pikmin|Purple]], and [[Rock Pikmin]] are strongly advised due to their higher attack power. Note that, when it shakes Pikmin off, that it tends to buck them directly in front of it - perfectly positioned to be grabbed by its lunge, which it often immediately retaliates with. | ||
If your army is on the small side, lacking the power to justify a frontal assault or to instantly kill it with an ambush, kiting its attack - that is, prompting it to lunge and dodging the attack - will offer an opportunity to counter with Oatchi's Rush. | If your army is on the small side, lacking the power to justify a frontal assault or to instantly kill it with an ambush, kiting its attack - that is, prompting it to lunge and dodging the attack - will offer an opportunity to counter with Oatchi's Rush. | ||

[[Punch]]ing a Jumbo Bulborb to death is highly impractical, both due to the weak power of the punch, and its high health. Should one wish to take one on without risking Pikmin lives, sending Oatchi to do the task is recommended. If he has been sufficiently upgraded, it is entirely possible for him to take out a Jumbo Bulborb on his own. | [[Punch]]ing a Jumbo Bulborb to death is highly impractical, both due to the weak power of the punch, and its high health.

[[Gear#Air_Armor.2B.2B_.28Oatchi.29|Air Armor++]], [[Gear#Tuff_Stuff.2B.2B_.28Oatchi.29|Tuff Stuff++]], and a fully upgraded [[Oatchi#Big_Chomp|Big Chomp]] are highly recommended if this approach is chosen. | ||

*An abnormally large Bulborb is also present as a [[boss]] in {{hp}}, with similar behavior of hiding in foliage and charging at Pikmin.
