Swarm it from the back with a large group of 20 or more Pikmin, preferably [[Red Pikmin|reds]] for their high attack power, and it will die. Note that if the game has been running for a while it may instantly be standing and will kill more pikmin than expected. If only a few Pikmin are available, repeatedly throw Pikmin onto the Bulborb's back and retreat if it starts charging at them. When it goes back to sleep, toss more Pikmin on its back. When attacking [[Dwarf Red Bulborb|Dwarf Bulborbs]] they will sometimes screech when agitated and awaken nearby Red Bulborbs. Note that a glitch exists when the Bulborb moves in to attack that renders it invincible. Unless it is at very low health, expect some Pikmin to be devoured. With a large enough Pikmin group this shouldn't be a problem, though. If [[Bomb Rock]]s are used, the Bulborb will die with two or three blasts. | Swarm it from the back with a large group of 20 or more Pikmin, preferably [[Red Pikmin|reds]] for their high attack power, and it will die.

This also works for a Spotty Bulbear but takes a little bit longer because he has more health.Red pikmin are the best for this strategy.Notice:this works not good in Pikmin 2.When attacking [[Dwarf Red Bulborb|Dwarf Bulborbs]] they will sometimes screech when agitated and awaken nearby Red Bulborbs.

In [[Pikmin 3]], Red Bulborbs are back once again. They appear to have a new ability in which they scream and nearby Pikmin are blown backwards. They now have much more exaggerated features, which acts as a sort of battle mechanic; hitting one directly in the eye will cause the creature discomfort, stopping it from attacking for a short moment.<sup>[Citation Needed]</sup> | In [[Pikmin 3]], Red Bulborbs are back once again.
