Locations

• Ravaged Rustworks
  • Steel Pipe Forest: This is where they are the most frequent, acting as the "gimmick" of the level, being found throughout the whole area. There are lots of twisting vines all over the level, allowing them to quickly travel.
• Lushlife Murk
  • Burning Bog: The first notable place they are found in in the room with the Tangerine Paste. They act as a threat that distracts player, crawling from the ceiling from multiple vines. Here, the player must multitask between fighting the Puffstalk in the room and the Sporegrubs. They also appear a few times through the level, whereas they can land on the player's "raft" and overall cause more chaos.

Notes

Hey! Pikmin logs

“A mutant variety of Sheargrub that lives in certain types of grass. It guards its territory with bursts of toxic gas. I've noticed similar behavior in my dog back home, but it takes much less to set Bulbie off.”
