Notes

Pikmin

Olimar's voyage log

The most plentiful species on the planet, they are quite ferocious despite their appearance, using their massive jaws to swallow Pikmin whole. Frontal assaults result in disaster; attacks from behind are more successful. Attacking their legs is also effective.

Reel notes

This nocturnal hunter feeds mostly on small animals returning to their nests at night.

Pikmin 2

Olimar's notes

Red Bulborb
Oculus kageyamii russus
Grub-dog family
This large organism has the familiar mandibles and cranial morphology of the grub-dog family, as well as the characteristic bulging eyes. As with most grub-dogs, the creature's cranium comprises half of its total length and girth. Showing a scarlet abdomen with white spots, this creature is primarily nocturnal, choosing to prey upon smaller creatures returning to their nests. Originally classified as the spotty bulborb, further research has reclassified this species as the red bulborb. Subspecies of varied colors have recently been discovered, but academics are divided into two rival camps over how to handle their classification.

Louie's notes

Plump specimens are best spit-roasted whole, stuffed with a lime and a slab of bacon. Baste frequently to ensure a magnificently moist haunch.

Structural flaws: eyestalks, back Weight: 10 Only a very confident designer would waive through issues like bright-red warning coloration and a tendency to sleep in broad daylight. There's no way a frontal assault on this thing will work, so we have to get creative. I'm thinking we should hit its back hard while it sleeps, or maybe target those thin-looking eyestalks.

The white polka dots on red is quite a look. Something about it is familiar, but where— Ah. Right. It reminds me of the captain. Not the polka dots—I mean the way it snores as it naps in the sun.

Charlie's comments

This red bruiser gobbles up Pikmin like candy. The standard approach is to attack from behind while it's still asleep. That may seem callous, but it would do the same to you if it could. Stow those feelings and strike!

Dalmo's notes

It has wide, googly eyes on protruding stalks, a mouth meant to swallow prey in one large gulp, and powerful, red and white polka-dotted hindquarters. It's fierce, and yet it's somehow quite endearing. Be wary of getting lured in by its disarming mien!

Hey! Pikmin

The S.S. Dolphin II said it sleeps during the day, but the one I met was awake. I pointed this out and the ship said, "I meant during the day on Hocotate." After defeating it, we found an object rich in Sparklium. It's possible that the creature considers such objects a delicacy.

This large organism has the familiar mandibles and cranial morphology of the grab-dog family, as well as the characteristic bulging eyes. As with most grub-dogs, its cranium comprises half of the organism's length and girth. Showing a scarlet abdomen with white spots, this creature is primarily nocturnal, choosing to prey upon smaller creatures returning to their nests. Juvenile greater grub-dogs live in treetops until developing spots, then fall to the ground to begin a similar predatory behavior.
Throw Pikmin at the adult spotty bulborb's back while marching the rest of your troop into its feet. Steer clear of the bulborb's mouth.

Pikmin Nintendo Power booklet

These nocturnal creatures are very common. Capable of surviving in a variety of habitats, bulborbs spend nearly all of their time searching for food. Their favorite meal? Raw Pikmin, of course.

Pikmin 2 Nintendo Player's Guide

The weakest of the larger Bulborbs, the Red Bulborb can still hold its own against a good-sized Pikmin squad. Since it is a nocturnal species, most of the Red Bulborbs that you encounter in the daytime will be asleep to start. Sneak up on them from behind and hit them with a stream of flying Pikmin.

New Play Control! Pikmin European website

Can anything polka-dotted be dangerous? If it’s a hungry Bulborb, you bet. Its big eyes on the top of its head are as big as its stomach. But the eyes can’t see what’s going on behind it. From the back is the perfect place to strike and swarm this beast.

Pikmin 3 website

It's considered one of the weakest of the Bulborbs, but can still hold its own against a good-sized Pikmin squad. Attack from behind to gain the advantage. Weakest point: eyeballs.

Pikmin 3 Prima Guide

These large creatures use their jaws to gobble up several Pikmin with each bite. Whenever possible, use a large squad of Pikmin to charge the creature from the rear. If brute force isn’t an option, throw Red Pikmin and Rock Pikmin onto the creature’s back. During an extended battle, it’s important to retrieve your Pikmin as the Bulborb shakes them off.

紅色の腹部に白い斑紋が色鮮やかな、デメマダラ。夜行性のため昼間は寝ているが、獰猛で目にしたものは何でも丸飲みにしてしまう。イヌムシ科に属する生物は、生態ピラミッドの上位に位置している。

○イヌムシ科とは?

宇宙犬のように二足歩行をする様子から、イヌムシと命名された。

特徴 その1 夜行性

昼間は眠っていて、縄張りに入らない限り起きることはないが、日が沈む頃に活発になって獲物を探し回る。
(Image text:
  • (昼)眠っている
  • (夜)目が赤く光る)

特徴 その2 仲間の見分け方

成長するにつれて体色が濃くなっていき、腹部に浮き上がる斑紋で仲間と認識する。
(Image text: 斑紋がない幼虫は餌食されてしまうこともある)

特徴 その3 大きな眼

夜間のかすかな明かりを捉えるために眼球が大きくなっている。その影響でまぶたを完全に閉じることはできず、発達した虹彩を伸縮させて瞬きする。

Translation

A colorful Bulborb with white spots on a red abdomen. Being nocturnal, it sleeps during the day, but it is ferocious and will swallow whole anything it sees. The creatures in the Grub-Dog family are at the top of the food pyramid.

○ What is the Grub-Dog family?

They were named Grub-Dogs because of the way they walk on two legs like space dogs.

Feature #1: Nocturnality

It sleeps during the day and does not wake up unless its territory is entered, but it becomes active and searches for prey around sunset.
(Image text:
  • "(Day) Sleeping"
  • "(Night) Eyes glow red")

Feature #2: How it recognizes other members of the same clade

As it grows, the body color becomes darker, and it is recognized by the spots that appear on its abdomen.
(Image text: "Larvae without spots are sometimes preyed upon")

Feature #3: Large eyes

The eyeballs become large in order to catch faint light at night. Because of this, the eyelids cannot close completely, and it blinks by stretching and contracting the well-developed iris.

While exploring this warped land, I got the feeling that time passed faster than usual. Upon researching it further, I realized it was just my mind playing tricks on me. But, whenever I touch this object I can feel the space-time continuum bending! Woah... Suddenly, this all seems very hard to believe. I need a nap.

Schnauz's notes

This piece of technology doesn't work, so there's no way to confirm it...but I believe in my heart of hearts that it is part of a time machine. A foolish belief, maybe. But I have faith that the future holds many great things, and this is simply a sign of what's to come!

Olimar's notes

I was entranced by the longer needle as it spun round and round, and I completely lost track of time. This object doesn't strike me as otherworldly, but whenever I look at it, it's like I can feel the space-time continuum bending around me!

Louie's notes

The long stick ticks along a lot faster than the short one. If I had to pick, I'd choose the laid-back one.
