The '''Orange Bulborb''' ({{j|テンテンチャッピー|Tenten Chappī|Restless Chappy}}) is an [[Enemy|enemy]] in {{p2}}, {{p3}}, and {{p4}}. It has a general [[Bulborb]] appearance, but has brown skin, yellow bloodshot eyes, and its backside is orange with brown spots. It has the same strategy that all Bulborbs use for attacking, however, this is a unique Bulborb sub-species in that it wakes up if prey are within close range (about the range of the [[HUD#Cursor|cursor]]'s reach in the [[GameCube]] games), and has slightly more [[health]], making it difficult to defeat with the traditional Bulborb-defeating tactics. It is otherwise the same as the other Bulborbs. They may be found in many places, such as the [[Bulblax Kingdom]], or on land in the [[Wistful Wild]], by the [[Dream Den]]. Usually when there is one of these around, it is almost sure that there may be many [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]]s around.
The '''Orange Bulborb''' ({{j|テンテンチャッピー|Tenten Chappī|Restless Chappy}}) is an [[enemy]] that first debuted in {{p2}}, making further appearances in {{p3}} and {{p4}}. Compared to normal [[Bulborb]]s, Orange Bulborbs have brown skin, bloodshot yellow eyes, and an orange backside with brown spots.


In ''Pikmin 3'', the creature is much more rare, appearing only 4 times throughout the main story. Here, they have physical differences such as their head and face being more brownish. Their pupils have gained a more triangular shape as well. In some [[Mission Mode]] stages, they can be found near [[Clover]]s, but regardless, they will still be able to see prey [[hiding]] under any plant.
Orange Bulborbs are extremely light sleepers. As such, they will detect [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] and leaders and attack much sooner than other [[Grub-dog family|grub-dogs]]. Their detection range is approximately the same as the [[HUD#Cursor|cursor]]'s range in the both the Gamecube games and the [[Pikmin 1+2|Switch ports]], assuming motion controls are off. As such, it is nearly impossible to ambush an Orange Bulborb, even when attacking directly from behind. They also have slightly more health compared to their [[Bulborb]] brethren; all of these factors combine to make them dangerous opponents.
 
While rather common enemies in {{p2}}, they are much rarer in the following games, often only appearing a few times throughout the [[Story Mode|campaign]]. They tend to be slightly more common in [[Mission Mode]], [[Dandori Battle]]s, and [[Dandori Challenge]]s, however.

Orange Bulborbs are, like the [[Bulborb]], nocturnal creatures and sleep in mainly underground areas, but can still be found above ground. In the main series of games, this exposes them to being swarmed by Pikmin. However, due to their high-strung nature, they will wake up more often as they can sense both Pikmin and Leaders if too close. They will also chase the Pikmin or Leader for a longer distance compared to a regular Bulborb.

They will also chase the Pikmin or Leader for a longer distance compared to a regular Bulborb.


Once awoken, the Orange Bulborb becomes very aggressive and will rush towards any nearby Pikmin or Leader to try and eat them. If it manages to reach any Pikmin, it will stand up to eat them - otherwise it will attempt to attack again after tripping. If there are multiple Pikmin attacking the creature all at once, it will shake itself to throw Pikmin off of itself and try to eat more Pikmin. If the Grub-Dogs eyestalks are attacked, it will panic and stop doing whatever they were doing to shake off the attackers.
Once awoken, the Orange Bulborb behaves identically to any other adult Bulborb species, rushing towards any nearby Pikmin or leader to try and eat them. If it manages to reach any Pikmin, it will stand up to eat them; otherwise it will attempt to attack again after tripping. If there are multiple Pikmin attacking the creature all at once, it will shake itself to throw Pikmin off of itself and try to eat more Pikmin.


If there are no more Pikmin or Leaders near the Orange Bulborb, it will look around and then fall back asleep.
If there is nothing to attack or eat, it will look around, return to its territory, and fall back asleep. In {{p4}}, they will often fall asleep on the spot after losing their target, instead of returning to their starting location.
 
Exclusively in {{p3}}, their eyes are a weak point: throwing a Pikmin at them will cause the Orange Bulborb to panic, forcing it to stop whatever it was doing (even if it was in the middle of eating Pikmin) to shake off all of its attackers.

==Strategy==
If a large group of [[Purple Pikmin]] is available, simply rain them down on the Orange Bulborb. Even with the Bulborb's head start, the purples will have a good chance of stunning it with serious damage, and hopefully defeating it without losses. This process will be noticeably simpler if you're playing on the [[New Play Control! Pikmin 2|Wii port]] or the [[Pikmin 2 (Nintendo Switch)|Switch port]]: In these versions, the cursor's range is much greater than the GameCube versions, allowing you to pummel it with virtually zero risk. You will have to enable motion controls on the Switch port to get this effect, however.
 
If purples are ''not'' available, the battle will be significantly trickier. It's never wise to attack a large [[grub-dog]] from the front since they'll almost surely bite back, and since the Orange Bulborb will wake up before it can be attacked clearly, this will likely result in massive Pikmin losses. If it is approached from the back, quickly run at it and rain [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] on it. It can then be defeated like any other Bulborb. If there is no choice but to approach it from the front, [[dismiss]] the Pikmin and use a [[leader]] to wake it up. Let the Bulborb chase them until it runs out of its range. When it goes back to sleep, attack it in the back. Orange Bulborbs also have a slight delay in between its "yawning" sequence and waking up again, so use this opportunity to pummel it with Pikmin.
 
In ''Pikmin 3'', the Orange Bulborb retains all of its traits from ''Pikmin 2''. They are generally slightly harder to defeat, mostly due to the lack of Purple Pikmin in 3's story mode. However, there are other strategies players can use now to take it down. As with all [[grub-dog]]s in 3, their eyes are weak points; tossing a Pikmin at them will cause the Bulborb to panic, interrupting anything it was doing (including eating Pikmin), making a frontal assault potentially viable with decent accuracy. Additionally, as all Pikmin can hold [[bomb rock]]s, you can simply use them to quickly defeat the Bulborb if in a hurry, or if your squad is on the smaller side.
 
The only Orange Bulborb that you are explicitly required to defeat to obtain all fruits is the one in the [[Tropical Wilds]]; the group of 3 near the [[Portable Sunset]] in the [[Twilight River]] can be left alone by lifting the nearby bamboo gate. The one in the Tropical Wilds is facing away from the gate, so Bomb Rocks are recommended. Alternatively, the Bulborb can be awoken, and if the player runs away fast enough, it will go back to sleep ''facing'' the wall, allowing for an easier attack.

Line 50: Line 63:
Olimar mentions Bulborbs having a set of mandibles, which can also be seen in the Orange Bulborb. Mandibles are a pair of appendages near an insect's mouth, used for grinding and chewing food. The so-called mandibles Olimar mentions in his notes look nothing like normal mandibles and are instead most likely saber-teeth, used for breaking exoskeletons of prey insects and digging through the soil for roots.

The Orange Bulborbs' relationship with Grub-Dog young is complicated. They have been spotted sleeping next to Dwarf Orange Bulborbs (Breadbug mimics), which could be due to the Orange Bulborb thinking that the Dwarf Orange Bulborbs are perhaps Orange Bulborb larvae. There is no evidence of true juvenile Orange Bulborbs in the Pikmin franchise, the only true juvenile Grub-Dogs seen are Dwarf Bulbears and Dwarf Frosty Bulborbs. There are Bulborb Larva birthed by the Empress Bulblax and Albino Dwarf Bulborbs which is the 1st molt of the Bulborb Larva however it is unknown whether they can grow into Orange Bulborbs.
No true Dwarf Orange Bulborbs are known to exist. While Orange Bulborbs very commonly sleep near [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb|breadbug mimics that look similar to them]], this could simply be the Orange Bulborb mistaking the breadbug mimic as its own young. Given Olimar's notes on the [[Albino Dwarf Bulborb]] suggest that it is "impossible to tell '''which subspecies'''" a particular Albino Dwarf Bulborb might mature into until the second molt, it is likely that true Dwarf Orange Bulborbs do exist, but simply have not been seen.


According to Olimar, when certain environmental changes occur, a female Bulborb can transform into an Empress Bulblax, taking on the role of a pack matriarch and giving birth to large amounts of larva. The
{{Notes|olimargc=y|olimarwiius=y|olimarwiieu=y|louie=y|p3dpalphus=y|p3dpalpheu=y|p3dpbrittanyus=y|p3dpbrittanyeu=y|p3dpcharlie=y|p3dplouieus=y|p3dplouieeu=y|p3dpolimarus=y|p3dpolimareu=y}}
Empress Bulblax has a similar appearance to the Bulborb as they both have a red body with white spots. This could mean that it’s possible for an orange variant of the Empress Bulblax to exist and that similar behavior could occur.


We also see that [[Bulbmin]] are Pikmin which infect other organisms to take control of them. The only host seen up to Pikmin 4 is that of a Bulborb, however, Olimar implied in his notes that it’s possible for other creatures to be hosts so its possible that a Orange Bulbmin variant exists.

In ''Pikmin 3'', the Orange Bulborb retains all of its traits from ''Pikmin 2'', but due to the lack of Purple Pikmin in Story Mode and the fact that the hiding strategy with Clovers does not work, it can be much tougher to defeat. However, there are other strategies players can use now to take it down. Firstly, the front of the Bulborb is much more vulnerable due to the eyeballs of the Orange Bulborb being a weak point. If one is hit, it will cause the Bulborb to recoil (and spit out any Pikmin that it has eaten). Secondly, all Pikmin can hold [[bomb rock]]s, allowing them to be used to defeat the Orange Bulborb quicker. Finally, instead of using Purple Pikmin, [[Rock Pikmin]] can be used instead to pummel the Bulborb.


The only Orange Bulborb that is required to take down is the one in the [[Tropical Wilds]]; the group of 3 near the [[Portable Sunset]] in the [[Twilight River]] can be left alone by lifting the nearby bamboo gate. The one in the Tropical Wilds is facing away from the gate, so Bomb Rocks are recommended. Alternatively, the Bulborb can be awoken, and if the player runs away fast enough, it will go back to sleep ''facing'' the wall, allowing for an easier attack.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In {{p2}}, although an Orange Bulborb will wake up from having a leader or Pikmin pass by close, it will not wake up if a [[Spotty Bulbear]] bumps against it, as is the case with other [[Grub-dog family|grub-dogs]]. This can be seen in sublevel 9 of the [[Hole of Heroes]].
*Strangely, despite being established as extremely light sleepers, Orange Bulborbs will not wake up if a [[Spotty Bulbear]] bumps against them in {{p2}}. This is particularly odd as all other [[Grub-dog family|grub-dogs]] will wake up under the same circumstance. This discrepancy can primarily be seen in sublevel 9 of the [[Hole of Heroes]], which contains every adult grub-dog in the game.
*Despite never appearing in any [[night expedition]]s in {{p4}}, Orange Bulborbs can be viewed at night in the Piklopedia. They also deal a unique amount of damage to the [[Lumiknoll|Tricknoll]], destroying it in only 7 hits.
**An Orange Bulborb and Spotty Bulbear also coexist on sublevel 2 of the [[Emperor's Realm]], allowing this behavior to be witnessed.
**This scenario is especially unique, because the Orange Bulborbs in question are always awake. They are always asleep in all of the Caves they appear in, so the Piklopedia entry is the only place to see a permanently awake Orange Bulborb.

*Olimar's Notes for the Orange Bulborb notably contain a typo throughout much of the series ("... a garish color pattern, with deep orange body [...]"). While initially fixed in the European {{Npcp2}} release, it was unfixed for all versions of {{P3d}}, until finally being fixed in all regions in {{p4}}.

Attacks Eat Pikmin

The Orange Bulborb (テンテンチャッピー?, lit.: "Restless Chappy") is an enemy that first debuted in Pikmin 2, making further appearances in Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4. Compared to normal Bulborbs, Orange Bulborbs have brown skin, bloodshot yellow eyes, and an orange backside with brown spots.

Orange Bulborbs are extremely light sleepers. As such, they will detect Pikmin and leaders and attack much sooner than other grub-dogs. Their detection range is approximately the same as the cursor's range in the both the Gamecube games and the Switch ports, assuming motion controls are off. As such, it is nearly impossible to ambush an Orange Bulborb, even when attacking directly from behind. They also have slightly more health compared to their Bulborb brethren; all of these factors combine to make them dangerous opponents.

While rather common enemies in Pikmin 2, they are much rarer in the following games, often only appearing a few times throughout the campaign. They tend to be slightly more common in Mission Mode, Dandori Battles, and Dandori Challenges, however.

Behavior[edit]

Orange Bulborbs are, like the Bulborb, nocturnal creatures and sleep in mainly underground areas, but can still be found above ground. In the main series of games, this exposes them to being swarmed by Pikmin. However, due to their high-strung nature, they will wake up more often as they can sense both Pikmin and Leaders if too close. They will also chase the Pikmin or Leader for a longer distance compared to a regular Bulborb.

Once awoken, the Orange Bulborb behaves identically to any other adult Bulborb species, rushing towards any nearby Pikmin or leader to try and eat them. If it manages to reach any Pikmin, it will stand up to eat them; otherwise it will attempt to attack again after tripping. If there are multiple Pikmin attacking the creature all at once, it will shake itself to throw Pikmin off of itself and try to eat more Pikmin.

If there is nothing to attack or eat, it will look around, return to its territory, and fall back asleep. In Pikmin 4, they will often fall asleep on the spot after losing their target, instead of returning to their starting location.

Exclusively in Pikmin 3, their eyes are a weak point: throwing a Pikmin at them will cause the Orange Bulborb to panic, forcing it to stop whatever it was doing (even if it was in the middle of eating Pikmin) to shake off all of its attackers.

Strategy[edit]

If a large group of Purple Pikmin is available, simply rain them down on the Orange Bulborb. Even with the Bulborb's head start, the purples will have a good chance of stunning it with serious damage, and hopefully defeating it without losses. This process will be noticeably simpler if you're playing on the Wii port or the Switch port: In these versions, the cursor's range is much greater than the GameCube versions, allowing you to pummel it with virtually zero risk. You will have to enable motion controls on the Switch port to get this effect, however.

If purples are not available, the battle will be significantly trickier. It's never wise to attack a large grub-dog from the front since they'll almost surely bite back, and since the Orange Bulborb will wake up before it can be attacked clearly, this will likely result in massive Pikmin losses. If it is approached from the back, quickly run at it and rain Pikmin on it. It can then be defeated like any other Bulborb. If there is no choice but to approach it from the front, dismiss the Pikmin and use a leader to wake it up. Let the Bulborb chase them until it runs out of its range. When it goes back to sleep, attack it in the back. Orange Bulborbs also have a slight delay in between its "yawning" sequence and waking up again, so use this opportunity to pummel it with Pikmin.

In Pikmin 3, the Orange Bulborb retains all of its traits from Pikmin 2. They are generally slightly harder to defeat, mostly due to the lack of Purple Pikmin in 3's story mode. However, there are other strategies players can use now to take it down. As with all grub-dogs in 3, their eyes are weak points; tossing a Pikmin at them will cause the Bulborb to panic, interrupting anything it was doing (including eating Pikmin), making a frontal assault potentially viable with decent accuracy. Additionally, as all Pikmin can hold bomb rocks, you can simply use them to quickly defeat the Bulborb if in a hurry, or if your squad is on the smaller side.

The only Orange Bulborb that you are explicitly required to defeat to obtain all fruits is the one in the Tropical Wilds; the group of 3 near the Portable Sunset in the Twilight River can be left alone by lifting the nearby bamboo gate. The one in the Tropical Wilds is facing away from the gate, so Bomb Rocks are recommended. Alternatively, the Bulborb can be awoken, and if the player runs away fast enough, it will go back to sleep facing the wall, allowing for an easier attack.

Biology[edit]

Orange Bulborbs are quite similar in design to the regular Bulborb, which is a creature with one of the most diverse physiology in the Pikmin series. They possess traits similar to those of amphibians, reptiles, and mammals. Orange Bulborbs have large bulbous eyes set in stalks, as opposed to the compound eyes of most insects. The eyes of the creature are described by Olimar as being yellow in color as well as being bloodshot, giving it it’s more high-strung nature

Olimar mentions Bulborbs having a set of mandibles, which can also be seen in the Orange Bulborb. Mandibles are a pair of appendages near an insect's mouth, used for grinding and chewing food. The so-called mandibles Olimar mentions in his notes look nothing like normal mandibles and are instead most likely saber-teeth, used for breaking exoskeletons of prey insects and digging through the soil for roots.

No true Dwarf Orange Bulborbs are known to exist. While Orange Bulborbs very commonly sleep near breadbug mimics that look similar to them, this could simply be the Orange Bulborb mistaking the breadbug mimic as its own young. Given Olimar's notes on the Albino Dwarf Bulborb suggest that it is "impossible to tell which subspecies" a particular Albino Dwarf Bulborb might mature into until the second molt, it is likely that true Dwarf Orange Bulborbs do exist, but simply have not been seen.

Charlie's comments

“Those bulging eyes are honed for battle, with no known blind spots. We often find them asleep, but they wake as soon as we get close. For all we know, they're only pretending to sleep to lull us into a false sense of security. Still, sometimes that one second where they're waking up is all we need to go in hard.”

Pikmin 2 Nintendo Player's Guide[edit]

“One of the more intimidating non-boss enemies, and stronger than the Red Bulborbs, the beast can eat several Pikmin at once. If you can't attack it from behind, petrify it with an Ultra-Bitter Spray.”

Pikmin 3 Prima Guide[edit]

“Orange Bulborbs are similar to standard Bulborbs, but they’re considerably tougher. These creatures tend to sleep in tight spaces, making it difficult to flank an Orange Bulborb without it noticing.”

Dalmo's notes[edit]

“If you approach it while it's sleeping, it will immediately wake up, leap to its feet, and peer around nervously. With such finely tuned senses, it's no wonder this Bulborb can get a bit sleep-deprived. Though its big bloodshot eyes look surprisingly cute!”

Naming[edit]

See more: Grub-dog family#Naming.
  • Common name: Orange Bulborbs. They are distinguished from the remaining Bulborbs by being orange, hence their name.
  • Japanese nickname: テンテンチャッピー?. テンテン? has the dual meaning of 輾転? (lit.: "tossing and turning (in bed)") and 点々? (lit.: "many dots"). チャッピー? (lit.: "Chappy") is Japanese for "Bulborb".
  • Japanese name: ダイダイデメマダラ?, lit.: "Spotted Orange Bug-eye".
  • Scientific name: Oculus kageyamii orangium. Oculus kageyamii is the species name for the Bulborbs, and orangium is similar to the English word "orange".
  • Internal names: Internally, they are called bluechappy in Pikmin 2 due to the fact that yellow and blue Bulborbs were planned to exist during development, but over time the blue Bulborb got changed into the Orange Bulborb. In Pikmin 3, this enemy is internally recognized as being the same as the Bulborb, so its internal name is chappy, but when it needs to be distinguished, it is called tenten, over its Japanese name. In Pikmin 4, it is changed to TENTENCHAPPY, which matches its Japanese common name.
  • Prerelease: None.

Trivia[edit]

  • Strangely, despite being established as extremely light sleepers, Orange Bulborbs will not wake up if a Spotty Bulbear bumps against them in Pikmin 2. This is particularly odd as all other grub-dogs will wake up under the same circumstance. This discrepancy can primarily be seen in sublevel 9 of the Hole of Heroes, which contains every adult grub-dog in the game.
    • An Orange Bulborb and Spotty Bulbear also coexist on sublevel 2 of the Emperor's Realm, allowing this behavior to be witnessed.
  • Despite never appearing in any night expeditions in Pikmin 4, Orange Bulborbs can be viewed at night in the Piklopedia. They deal a unique amount of damage to the Tricknoll, destroying it in 7 hits.
    • This scenario is especially unique, because the Orange Bulborbs in question are always awake. All Orange Bulborbs in the series are found asleep, so the Piklopedia entry is the only place to see a permanently awake Orange Bulborb.
  • Olimar's Notes for the Orange Bulborb notably contain a typo throughout much of the series ("... a garish color pattern, with deep orange body [...]"). While initially fixed in the European New Play Control! Pikmin 2 release, it was unfixed for all versions of Pikmin 3 Deluxe, until finally being fixed in all regions in Pikmin 4.
