Breadbug
'''''Pansarus gluttonae'''''
Breadbugs are one of the enemies the Pikmin games. It is in the Breadbug family, which was named after it. It does no harm to the Pikmin directly, though it can pull away small objects (in Pikmin 1), or both small and rather large (in Pikmin 2) objects vital to the Pikmin into its dwelling. If Pikmin are trying to pull something when the Breadbug pulls them in, they will die. It has a large and hard amount of blubber, making it nearly immune to most attacks.
The most-used way to kill it is to have Pikmin pull objects that the Breabug attempts to take with them and take it to any Onion or the Ship's pod. The Onion or the Ship will get the object, but damage the Breadbug. This method usually has to be done twice, though the first hit is so strong, you may just need to throw a Pikmin on it to finish it off. Strangely, Olimar could only hurt the Breabug by fist in Pikmin 1, in Pikmin 2, this became null (useless).
Another, easy way to kill the Breadbug is to drop Purple Pikmin on it, where their heavy weight will also hurt the Breadbug, and they also try to home in as they land. If you are a little short on patience, petrifying it will also make it vulnerable to swarming.
Olimar's Notes
The adult Breadbug competes for many of the same food sources as Pikmin, but its thick-skinned hide allows it to withstand most pikmin group attacks. However, some researchers claim to have observed breadbugs being overwhelmed by massive numbers and reduced to food.
Louie's Notes
Breadbugs are hearty and nutritious but also bland and unimaginative. They may be palatable in a pinch, but they hold no true culinary promise.
