Dwarf Orange Bulborb: Difference between revisions

 

Much like the [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]], this enemy is called a dwarf because it is a smaller-sized mimic of the [[Orange Bulborb]]. In Japan, it is called {{j|テンコチャッピー|Ten Ko Chappī}}, which translates to "Child Dotted Chappy", with Chappy being the Japanese name for Bulborb – this is not quite the same as the Japanese name for the Orange Bulborb with "Child" prefixed, as the larger enemy is called {{j|テンテンチャッピー|Tenten Chappī}}.

 

Its scientific name is ''Pansarus pseudooculii orangium''. ''Pansarus pseudooculli'' is the species name for most Bulborb mimics, and ''orangium'' is similar to the English word ''orange''. Internally, this enemy is called <code>bluekochappy</code> in ''Pikmin 2'', which is a combination of "blue", given how they were [[Pikmin 2 prerelease information|initially]] blue, and "ko chappy", a Romanization of part of its Japanese name. In ''Pikmin 3'', it is internally paired up with the Dwarf Red Bulborb (<code>kochappy</code>), but is disambiguated as <code>tenko</code>, which is also a part of its Japanese name.
