If a large group of [[Purple Pikmin]] is available, simply rain them down on the Orange Bulborb. Even with the Bulborb's head start, the purples will have a good chance of stunning it with serious damage, and hopefully defeating it without losses. | If a large group of [[Purple Pikmin]] is available, simply rain them down on the Orange Bulborb.

Orange Bulborbs are tricky without purples. It's never wise to attack a large [[grub-dog]] from the front since they'll almost surely bite back, and since the Orange Bulborb will wake up before it can be attacked clearly, it will be highly troublesome. If it is approached from the back, quickly run and rain [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] on it. It can then be defeated like any other Bulborb. If there is no choice but to approach it from the front, [[dismiss]] the Pikmin and use a [[ | Orange Bulborbs are tricky without purples.

When it goes back to sleep, attack it in the back. Orange Bulborbs also have a slight delay in between its "yawning" sequence and waking up again, so use this opportunity to pummel it with Pikmin. | ||
In ''Pikmin 3'', the Orange Bulborb retains all of its trait from ''Pikmin 2'', but due to the lack of Purple Pikmin in Story Mode and the fact that the hiding strategy with Clovers does not work, it can be much tougher to defeat. However, there are other strategies players can use now to take it down. Firstly, the front of the Bulborb is much more vulnerable due to the eyeballs of the Orange Bulborb being a weak point. If one is hit, it will cause the Bulborb to recoil (and spit out any Pikmin that it has eaten). Secondly, all Pikmin can hold [[bomb-rocks]], allowing them to be used to defeat the Orange Bulborb quicker. Finally, instead of using Purple Pikmin, [[Rock Pikmin]] can be used instead to pummel the Bulborb. | In ''Pikmin 3'', the Orange Bulborb retains all of its trait from ''Pikmin 2'', but due to the lack of Purple Pikmin in Story Mode and the fact that the hiding strategy with Clovers does not work, it can be much tougher to defeat.
