Red Bulborbs are among the most well-known enemies in the Pikmin games and are often just as much a staple for the games as Pikmin themselves. They were originally known as Spotty Bulborbs until various other subspecies, all with spots, were discovered in Pikmin 2.

It seems that the young Red Bulborb is the favored host of the parasitic Pikmin known as Bulbmin. This type of Pikmin appears to control its host, causing the animal to behave less like a Bulborb and more like a Pikmin, following a Captain (which is naturally an older Bulbmin) and predating in packs. Red Bulborbs are not observed at the two stages of development displayed by Bulbmin (between Bulborb Larva and their full size) anywhere else in-game (unlike the Spotty Bulbear and Emperor Bulblax), so it is unknown whether Bulbmin are a common stage in Red Bulborb development or not, as symbiotic cooperation from the parasite would give this slightly weaker form of Grub-dog an advantage in the subterranean environment that all stages of the Red Bulborb species are found in. The best known form, the large adults, also venture to the surface.

Most have a very slow reaction time when attacked. If rushed by a large enough force, they can be overcome before they can counterattack. It is also true that throwing numerous Purple Pikmin will work exceedingly well in defeating it without fail. Their mouths are large enough to be able to gobble up as many as five Pikmin with one bite, so attacking from behind is recommended for the best results.

Bulborbs in general are surprisingly apathetic creatures and won't arise from their sleep even if one of their own is under attack. That being said, however, Dwarf Bulborbs in Pikmin will let out a screech when agitated, awaking any nearby Bulborbs. This does not happen in Pikmin 2.

Notes

Olimar's voyage log

“The most plentiful species on the planet, they are quite ferocious despite their appearance, using their massive jaws to swallow Pikmin whole. Frontal assaults result in disaster; attacks from behind are more successful. Attacking their legs is also effective.”

Reel notes

“This nocturnal hunter feeds mostly on small animals returning to their nests at night.”

Olimar's notes

“This large organism has the familiar mandibles and cranial morphology of the grub-dog family, as well as the characteristic bulging eyes. As with most grub-dogs, the creature's cranium comprises half of its total length and girth. Showing a scarlet abdomen with white spots, this creature is primarily nocturnal, choosing to prey upon smaller creatures returning to their nests. Originally classified as the spotty bulborb, further research has reclassified this species as the red bulborb. Subspecies of varied colors have recently been discovered, but academics are divided into two rival camps over how to handle their classification.”

Louie's notes

“Plump specimens are best spit-roasted whole, stuffed with a lime and a slab of bacon. Baste frequently to ensure a magnificently moist haunch.”

Brawl Trophy Description

"A creature whose Japanese name translates as "spotted crimson bug-eye." These bulky nocturnal animals have white-and-red-flecked rumps that resemble strawberries. Red bulborbs sleep in the day and wake in the evening to feed on small animals. Several colors of bulborb subspecies have been discovered--their classification is a hot subject for scholars."

Strategy

File:Pikmin 002.jpg

Several Pikmin attacking a mature Red Bulborb.

Pikmin

Swarming it with a large group of 50 or so Pikmin, preferably Reds due to their high attack power, proves quite effective. If only a few Pikmin are available, they should be thrown onto the Bulborb's back repeatedly while retreating if the enemy starts charging at them. Waiting until it goes back to sleep takes longer, but is a lot safer. If bomb-rocks are used, the Bulborb will die with two blasts. If you attack its back it will usually do a quarter-turn right, hiding some of its back from your current position.

Pikmin 2

Rather than swarming it, continuously tossing Pikmin onto its back is preferable when the army is at least 30 Pikmin strong, even if some are shaken off. A few purple Pikmin can cause serious damage, especially if they stun the Bulborb. If it is accidentally awakened before being attacked by Pikmin, the player should run away until it turns around, then make a new pass at it.

If you don't have purples and your army is small, you can also wake it up and let it chase you until out of its range, which will make it shake its head and turn back. Follow it, and at the moment it stops walking at its original sleeping spot, attack it. Even though it is still awake, it will not notice you attacking it until looking around, yawning and falling asleep, then waking back up.

Trivia

In the Nintendogs games, at the second-hand shop, there is a Red Bulborb toy on a shelf of products in a pre-rendered background shot.
Along with Olimar, the Pikmin and Louie, the Red Bulborb is available as a plush toy, along with being a secret figurine in the first volume of Pikmin Figures.
The Red Bulborb's Japanese name literally translates to "spotted crimson bug-eye".
On the title screen of Pikmin 2, pressing and holding the Y button will summon a Red Bulborb onto the screen. The player can control it by using the C stick and can eat Pikmin using the Z button.
In New Play Control! Pikmin, it uses completely different sound clips, making it "whistle" and "squeak" instead of roar.
The first and last words of its scientific name translate to "eye" and "red" respectively, likely making its scientific name similar or indentical to its Japanese name translation.

The Red Bulborb's original name was the '''Spotty Bulborb''', but had its name changed when [[Olimar]] found other subspecies, all with spotted patterns. In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', it is simply named '''Bulborb''', despite the [[Orange Bulborb]] also appearing in the game. This nocturnal creature will sleep out in the open, exposing themselves to Pikmin attacks.
-==Biology==
+'''Red Bulborbs''' are among the most well-known enemies in the [[Pikmin (series)|''Pikmin'' games]] and are often just as much a staple for the games as [[Pikmin Family|Pikmin]] themselves. They were originally known as '''Spotty Bulborbs''' until various other subspecies, all with spots, were discovered in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''.
-Red Bulborbs are among the most mammalian enemies in the series due to them having leathery, soft skin and bulbous eyes, opposed to the compound eyes of most insects. Judging by the size of their eyes and their nocturnal lifestyle, their eyes have a wide pupil, a large lens and possible increased retinal surface used for collecting more ambient light during night time.
-Olimar mentions the Red Bulborbs having a set of mandibles. Mandibles are a pair of appendages near an insects mouth, used for grinding and chewing food. The so-called mandibles Olimar mentions in his notes look nothing like normal mandibles and are instead most likely sabre-teeth, used for breaking exoskeletons of prey insects and digging through the soil for roots. It is likely that Bulborbs are omnivorous creatures.
+It seems that the young Red Bulborb is the favored host of the parasitic Pikmin known as [[Bulbmin]]. This type of [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]] appears to control its host, causing the animal to behave less like a Bulborb and more like a Pikmin, following a [[Captain]] (which is naturally an older Bulbmin) and predating in packs.

-The most effective strategy is to swarm it from the back with a large group of 30 or more Pikmin, preferably [[Red Pikmin]] 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. Another very effective strategy is, with a group of 30-40 Pikmin(preferably Red, as stated above), to get behind it and throw Pikmin onto the back of the Bulborb. The Bulborb should shake in an attempt to get the attacking Pikmin off, but continue to throw your Pikmin; the speed you can throw in this game is perfect for this strategy, since even the fastest speed is slow enough that not all of your Pikmin will thrown onto the Bulborb come the first shake. This will result in more Pikmin on the Bulborb's back while the ones that were shaken off will rush to the feet of the Bulborb for greater damage.
+==Strategy==
+[[Image:Pikmin 002.jpg|thumb|250px|Several Pikmin attacking a mature Red Bulborb.]]
-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.  Then, when it attempts to shake them off, call your Pikmin back and throw them back when the Bulborb is done shaking. It should be unable to eat any Pikmin if done correctly. This strategy also works for the [[Spotty Bulbear]], but it takes a little bit longer because Spotty Bulbears have more health. Red Pikmin are the best for this strategy. (''Notice: This does not work well in Pikmin 2'') 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. If [[Bomb Rock]]s are used, the Bulborb will die with two blasts or 3 blasts, each blast dealing half damage however he will heal himself over time so throwing two almost simultaneosly is recommended.

-In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', rather than swarming it, continuously toss Pikmin onto its back and ignore any fallen Pikmin if it has low enough HP when it shakes. A few purple Pikmin can cause serious damage, especially if they stun the Bulborb. If it is accidentally awakened it before attacking with Pikmin, run away until it turns around, and begins to fall asleep, if attacked at this moment, it will not realize it is being hurt until it begins to snore. In some metallic themed caves, Red Bulborbs and their kin can be led off of the stage by awakening it and quickly running around a hole in the sublevel, causing it to fall.

Even though it is still awake, it will not notice you attacking it until looking around, yawning and falling asleep, then waking back up.
-It has also been observed that hitting it from underneath could kill it immediately, but this is rare and not recommended.

-In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', the best way to defeat a Red Bulborb is to gather a large amount of Pikmin, about 40, and sneak behind the Bulborb while it is sleeping. Once you are behind it, Lock on to it and dismiss your Pikmin. All the Pikmin should run towards it and kill it instantly, before it has a chance to eat a single Pikmin.
