The only way that Bulbmin can be killed before ever being whistled is if they are [[Crushing|crushed]] or they fall over the side of a level into the [[Pit|abyss]] when shaken by an enemy attack, explosion or other sufficient force. When that happens, their deaths will not count for the player's death tally. | The only way that Bulbmin can be killed before ever being whistled is if they are [[Crushing|crushed]] or they fall over the side of a level into the [[Pit|abyss]] when shaken by an enemy attack, explosion or other sufficient force.

Up to 10 juvenile Bulbmin can spawn with an adult Bulbmin, but they count towards the [[Pikmin limit|one hundred Pikmin limit]] when they spawn, so if the squad has more than ninety Pikmin when entering the sublevel, not all of the juvenile Bulbmin will spawn. | Up to 10 juvenile Bulbmin can spawn with an adult Bulbmin, but they count towards the [[Pikmin limit|one hundred Pikmin limit]] when they spawn, so if the squad has more than ninety Pikmin when entering the sublevel, not all of the juvenile Bulbmin will spawn. | ||
While Bulbmin only appear in ''Pikmin 2'', {{p4}} introduces [[Glow Pikmin]] which could be considered a successor to the Bulbmin. Much like Bulbmin, Glow Pikmin are a unique Pikmin type which can only be obtained through special means, are immune to all elemental hazards, and are left behind when exiting a cave. | |||

*Strangely enough, the young Bulbmin do not die when caught in an [[explosion]] while under the control of the mature Bulbmin. However, when under the player's control, they can die by explosions. This is more of a useful tip, since the mature Bulbmin can die from it, and the young will remain fine. | *Strangely enough, the young Bulbmin do not die when caught in an [[explosion]] while under the control of the mature Bulbmin.

*When juvenile Bulbmin perish, their souls appear as any other enemies' souls, not as Pikmin souls. This may likely be due to how the Bulbmin find a bulborb host, in which the host ends up losing its life as well. | *When juvenile Bulbmin perish, their souls appear as any other enemies' souls, not as Pikmin souls.

*The Pikmin appear to be orange, as hinted by the picture above, and by the orange coloration seen at the tip where the stem meets the leaf/bud/flower. If this is the case, they would be the only Pikmin type to have a separate idle glow/map icon color than their main coloration. | *The Pikmin appear to be orange, as hinted by the picture above, and by the orange coloration seen at the tip where the stem meets the leaf/bud/flower.
