'''Breadbugs''' are one of the enemies the Pikmin games. It is a member and namesake of the Breadbug family. It is shaped more like a roll, however, than a loaf of bread. It does no harm to the Pikmin directly, though it can pull away small objects (in [[Pikmin 1]]), or both small and rather large (in [[Pikmin 2]]) objects vital to the Pikmin into its dwelling. If Pikmin are holding onto something when the Breadbug pulls it into its nest, they will die. It has a large amount of tough blubber, making it nearly immune to most attacks.

The Breadbug, also known as the Vanilla Breadbug, is an enemy in the Pikmin games. This creature resembles a bread roll in appearance, and is the namesake of the Breadbug family. It does no harm to the Pikmin directly, though it can pull away small objects (in Pikmin 1), or both small and rather large (in Pikmin 2) objects vital to the Pikmin into its dwelling. If Pikmin are holding onto something when the Breadbug pulls it into its nest, they will die. It has a large amount of tough blubber, making it nearly immune to most attacks.

The most common way to kill it is to have Pikmin pull objects that the Breadbug attempts to take with them and take it to any Onion or the Ship's pod. The Onion or the Ship will get the object, but damage the Breadbug. This method usually has to be done twice, though the first hit is so strong, you may just need to throw a Pikmin on it to finish it off. Strangely, Olimar can damage the Breadbug by hitting it in Pikmin 1, but this has no effect in Pikmin 2.

Another easy way to kill the Breadbug is to drop Purple Pikmin on it. Their heavy weight will hurt the Breadbug, and they also try to home in as they land. If you are a little short on patience, petrifying it will also make it vulnerable to swarming.
