'''Bulbmin''' (adults: {{j|ハチャッピー|Ha Chappī|Leaf Chappy}}, juvenile: {{j|コッパチャッピー|Koppa Chappī|Small Leaf Chappy}}) are a parasitic species of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] found in {{p2}}. These Pikmin infect [[Bulborb]]s and take control of them, but it is implied by [[Olimar]] that they can take on other hosts as well. Physically, they resemble [[Red Bulborb]]s, except with a Pikmin stem and leaf (or bud or flower) atop their back. They can be found wandering the floors of certain [[cave]]s and behave much like the [[Spotty Bulbear]], patrolling an established path in search of food and can be dealt with similarly by using [[spray]]s or [[Purple Pikmin]]. The cave with the greatest number of Bulbmin is the [[Submerged Castle]]. | '''Bulbmin''' (adults: {{j|ハチャッピー|Ha Chappī|Leaf Chappy}}, juvenile: {{j|コッパチャッピー|Koppa Chappī|Small Leaf Chappy}}) are a parasitic species of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] found in {{p2}}.

Mature Bulbmin, acting as a [[leader]], can be followed by 10 or fewer juvenile Bulbmin. These wild juveniles can be used like normal Pikmin by the [[Hocotate|Hocotatian]] leaders, and each count towards the [[Pikmin limit|100 Pikmin limit]]; exactly how many there are when entering the sublevel depends on the number of available Pikmin slots the player had prior, up to a limit of 10 juveniles per mature Bulbmin. The mature Bulbmin acts like a Bulborb, in that it will pursue and eat Olimar's Pikmin. After defeating it, the smaller ones go into a panic. They are not dangerous, but whistling at them will instantly bring them into line under the leader's command and they become part of his Pikmin swarm. This addition is not permanent though, as Bulbmin stay behind whenever the party leaves the cave. Besides appearing in a select few caves in story mode, they are also present in some [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]] stages. | Mature Bulbmin, acting as a [[leader]], can be followed by 10 or fewer juvenile Bulbmin.
