They are as similar as any other Dwarf Bulborb, although they have lower health than the red and orange varieties, and have considerably less than the Dwarf Bulbear. They are first found in the Emergence Cave, making them the first subterranean species discovered. They are most commonly found near other Hairy Bulborbs, or in cave terrain covered by snow or ice.

Killing strategies
Pikmin
If a considerable amount of Pikmin are available, Olimar and Louie must swarm them and the enemy should die before eating any. Alternatively, they must aim and throw a large amount of Pikmin at its back. If one lands directly on it, it dies immediately.
Captains
Olimar and Louie must run around it and swat it until it's dead, avoiding its attacks. Similarly to the strategy of defeating Adult Bulborbs, they must attack its back to evade it's attacks.
