'''Dwarf Red Bulborbs''' ({{j|アカコチャッピー|Aka Kochappī|Little Red Chappy}}) are small and common enemies in the [[Pikmin (series)|''Pikmin'' games]]. They were originally known as '''Dwarf Bulborbs''' in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' until various subspecies with different colorations were discovered; they are called just that in ''Pikmin 3'' as well. At the end of ''Pikmin'' it is known that they are not of the same species as the [[Spotty Bulborb]], and in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', they are revealed to belong to the [[Breadbug family]], not the [[Grub-dog]] family. | |||
These enemies perfectly resemble [[Red Bulborb]]s in appearance, but are much smaller. Dwarf Red Bulborbs can be easily defeated by [[Group move|swarming]] them, or by [[throw]]ing a single [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] directly on top of them. In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', if a captain throws a [[Purple Pikmin]] on it, it will remain attached while the creature falls. In the first game, bothering one will make it release a loud scream, waking up the nearest Spotty Bulborb. Dwarf bulborbs do scream in ''Pikmin 2'', when a Pikmin is thrown onto its back, but the scream does absolutely nothing. If this creature is [[Ultra-Bitter Spray |petrified]] in the [[Piklopedia]], when it breaks out of the stone it runs around eating any thrown [[Pikpik carrot]]s at a much greater speed than normal. | |||
In the [[Cavern of Chaos]], on sublevel 8, more than fifty of them can be found, along with two [[Gatling Groink]]s. | |||
Dwarf Bulborbs have a far deeper-pitched cry in ''Pikmin 3''. They no longer shriek loudly as they did in ''Pikmin 2'' when killed, but instead emit a deep, throaty sound much like the Red Bulborbs in ''Pikmin 3'' do. This change seems questionable, as their smaller larynx should indeed produce a higher-pitched sound than that of a Red Bulborb, as seen with [[Bulborb Larva]]. | |||

By the end of the first game, it is revealed that the Dwarf Red Bulborb is actually a completely different species from the [[Red Bulborb]]. As such, one could most likely assume that these creatures are masters of mimicry. Like the [[Red Bulborb]], they have a very mammalian appearance, sporting the soft, leathery skin and bulbous eyes of their pseudo-cousin. They also have the same spot patterns and "mandibles" as that of the Red Bulborb. In ''Pikmin 3'', the spots are larger and these spots are indented. However, they do have one notable difference; these look-alikes have black eyes while [[Red Bulborb|Red Bulborbs]] have purple eyes. | |||

Dwarf Red Bulborbs (アカコチャッピー?, lit.: "Little Red Chappy") are small and common enemies in the Pikmin games. They were originally known as Dwarf Bulborbs in Pikmin until various subspecies with different colorations were discovered; they are called just that in Pikmin 3 as well. At the end of Pikmin it is known that they are not of the same species as the Spotty Bulborb, and in Pikmin 2, they are revealed to belong to the Breadbug family, not the Grub-dog family.
These enemies perfectly resemble Red Bulborbs in appearance, but are much smaller. Dwarf Red Bulborbs can be easily defeated by swarming them, or by throwing a single Pikmin directly on top of them. In Pikmin 2, if a captain throws a Purple Pikmin on it, it will remain attached while the creature falls. In the first game, bothering one will make it release a loud scream, waking up the nearest Spotty Bulborb. Dwarf bulborbs do scream in Pikmin 2, when a Pikmin is thrown onto its back, but the scream does absolutely nothing. If this creature is petrified in the Piklopedia, when it breaks out of the stone it runs around eating any thrown Pikpik carrots at a much greater speed than normal.
In the Cavern of Chaos, on sublevel 8, more than fifty of them can be found, along with two Gatling Groinks.
Dwarf Bulborbs have a far deeper-pitched cry in Pikmin 3. They no longer shriek loudly as they did in Pikmin 2 when killed, but instead emit a deep, throaty sound much like the Red Bulborbs in Pikmin 3 do. This change seems questionable, as their smaller larynx should indeed produce a higher-pitched sound than that of a Red Bulborb, as seen with Bulborb Larva.
Biology
By the end of the first game, it is revealed that the Dwarf Red Bulborb is actually a completely different species from the Red Bulborb. As such, one could most likely assume that these creatures are masters of mimicry. Like the Red Bulborb, they have a very mammalian appearance, sporting the soft, leathery skin and bulbous eyes of their pseudo-cousin. They also have the same spot patterns and "mandibles" as that of the Red Bulborb. In Pikmin 3, the spots are larger and these spots are indented. However, they do have one notable difference; these look-alikes have black eyes while Red Bulborbs have purple eyes.

"The trickiest aspect of fighting Dwarf Red Bulborbs is that they travel in groups. When you attack one, the others will help defend it. Attack each little Bulborb with a toss. If your throws are accurate, you'll flatten the lot of them in a hurry."
Pikmin 3 Prima Guide
"Dwarf Bulborbs are much weaker than their fully grown counterparts. To quickly defeat a Dwarf Bulborb, toss a single Pikmin onto the creature’s back."
Strategy
Pikmin
If you have a large group of Pikmin available, you can simply swarm it. Alternatively, aim and throw a bunch of Pikmin at its back. If a Pikmin lands directly on top of it, it will die instantly. In the first Pikmin game, these creatures may cause the crushing glitch to occur. In Pikmin 2, Purple Pikmin will home in on the Dwarf Bulborb, which can be pretty helpful for a quick kill. The Purple Pikmin will take a while to get off of the Dwarf Bulborb it landed on, but cannot be eaten while still clinging to the creature. If a Pikmin is caught by one, then it can easily be saved by throwing another Pikmin onto the creature's back. As the enemy dies, any captured Pikmin will be released from its mouth.
Captains
Simply punching while avoiding its attacks is the most effective strategy for captains.
