| The '''Bolbert''' ({{j|アトラクティブチャッピー|Atorakutibu Chappī|Attractive Chappy}}) is a recurring [[enemy]] in the {{ps}}, appearing in {{p}}, {{p2}}, {{p3}}, {{p4}}, {{hp}}, and ''[[Pikmin: Color Splash]]''. A majestic creature, the Bolbert is most readily identifiable by its glamorous appearance and delicate movement. Many mistake Bolberts for members of the [[grub-dog family|grub-dog]] and [[breadbug family|breadbug]] families, but the key difference lies in the Bolbert's vastly superior aesthetic value. In addition, while all forms of Bulborb and Bulborb mimic are different enemies, the Bolbert is a single enemy, appearing in several different color schemes and shapes.

| ==Behavior==
| |
| [[File:Pikmin 2 Bulborb Clay Art.jpg|thumb|left|Clay art of a Bolbert. Notice the creature's calm glamor while battling against Pikmin.]]
| |
| Much like the vastly bruter [[Bulborb|Red Bulborb]], a Bolbert sleeps during most of the day, waking up when prey approach. It can chase them down with its graceful walking pattern, and if it reaches them, it will attempt to gobble them up with its vast mouth. Should a Bolbert be attacked, it will smoothly shake its body in a rubbery-like fashion, tossing Pikmin away from its delicate hide. When bored, it returns to its original spot to resume its beauty sleep.
| |
|
| |
| Although rare due to its sleep cycle, it is possible to see a Bolbert's peaking intelligence in action at times, where it may interact with objects around it in a fashion similar to humans.
| |
|
| |
| {{clear}}
| |
|
| |
| ==Locations==
| |
| In sheer contrast with its splendor, the Bolbert is normally found sleeping on patches of dirt. It can be found on most [[area]]s, as a relatively common enemy, with the exceptions being [[The Forest Navel]], [[Valley of Repose]] and [[Twilight River]]. It is present in all [[Challenge Mode]] levels (in both ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 2]]''), as well as all [[Mission Mode]] levels bar the [[Formidable Oak Remix]]. It also appears in all [[2-Player Battle]] and [[Bingo Battle]] levels.
| |
|
| |
| {{clear}}
| |
| ==Strategy==
| |
| {{guide}}
| |
| Bolberts can be attacked like most other enemies by launching an onslaught of Pikmin to damage it. Care should be taken to [[whistle]] the Pikmin back before it attempts to slurp them in its unique mouth. Striking its delicate eyes causes slightly more damage than other parts of the body.
| |
|
| |
| In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', a Bolbert can also be defeated by the player itself: if they speak into the GamePad's microphone and lie about its good looks, or even laugh at it during some of its most glamorous animations, the pure shame and outrage will quickly and steadily sap away most of its [[health]]. This was removed in ''[[Pikmin 3 Deluxe]]''.
