'''Water Dumples''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(ダンゴナマズ) </span>are enemies in in every ''[[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin]]'' game. They are members of the Grub-dog family, and act like Bulborbs (Most likely because they are close relatives of Grub-Dogs). They are most commonly found in the water, but can survive on land as well. They resemble blue shellfish with relatively large mouths. The Water Dumples in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' move much more quickly and are bigger than their counterparts in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', but both can be defeated easily if [[Olimar]] and [[Louie]] are cautious and swarm them with their Pikmin. They also have "whiskers", much like real-life catfish. However, these are missing in ''Pikmin 2''. Just like Bulborbs, [[Purple Pikmin]] work particularly well if this creature is found on land. A Water Dumple can be defeated easily by captains as it has few hit points. Usually more than one Water Dumple is present when encountered. | |||

Water Dumples (ダンゴナマズ) are enemies in in every Pikmin game. They are members of the Grub-dog family, and act like Bulborbs (Most likely because they are close relatives of Grub-Dogs). They are most commonly found in the water, but can survive on land as well. They resemble blue shellfish with relatively large mouths. The Water Dumples in Pikmin move much more quickly and are bigger than their counterparts in Pikmin 2, but both can be defeated easily if Olimar and Louie are cautious and swarm them with their Pikmin. They also have "whiskers", much like real-life catfish. However, these are missing in Pikmin 2. Just like Bulborbs, Purple Pikmin work particularly well if this creature is found on land. A Water Dumple can be defeated easily by captains as it has few hit points. Usually more than one Water Dumple is present when encountered.
Notes
Reel notes
"This aquatic creature is a close relative of the bulborb."
Olimar's Notes
"A resident of freshwater pools and marshes, this aquatic creature regularly feeds on insects that land on the surface of the water. It shares a nearly identical skeletal structure with its close relative and terrestrial cousin, the bulborb. This may offer clues to its evolutionary origin and suggests that it only recently emigrated to an aquatic habitat."
Louie's Notes
"Deep-fry dumples without batter for all of the flavor with half the fat!"
Nintendo Player's Guide
"The swimming version of a Dwarf Bulborb has a large mouth and a big appetite. Since Water Dumples are blue, they blend in with the water. Squash them with blue Pikmin or draw them out of the water and hit them with purples. Beware they can spot you from a greater distance than other enemies can."

Trivia
- It is the only Grub-dog that looks nothing like a normal bulborb.
- According to Louie's notes on the Bumbling Snitchbug, Water Dumples lay eggs.
- Despite being the size of dwarves, it can eat two Pikmin at once rather than one. They also cannot be "one-shotted" by Pikmin like other dwarves.
- Using an Action Replay to access a model test menu in Pikmin, the Water Dumple's code name is "namazu".
- Their scientific name, Ichthyosa felinis, loosely translates to 'Cat Fish'.
