Hairy Bulborbs are enemies in Pikmin 2. They are similar to Red Bulborbs, but their backsides are white with blue spots and possess a lot of fluffy, white fur. They are similar to most other mature Bulborbs, but tend to live in colder environments. They have less health and are slightly more aggressive than the Red Bulborb and can be easily defeated by repeatedly throwing Purple Pikmin onto its back. Once this creature's health has been lowered to half, its hair will fall off, revealing its blue spots, making it resemble its Breadbug mimic, though larger in size.

Trivia

  • Its scientific name translates to "eye kageyamii bag/shell", which is strange due to the creature's furry backside.
