So I noticed that starting from ''Pikmin 3'', the Red Bulborb has been just called "Bulborb". It is written this way in the most recent smash games, and ''Hey! Pikmin''. This is probably because it is known as the "normal" Bulborb. So maybe we should update the name of the article, and the Dwarf Red Bulborb article too? This seems to have happened before, like with the Armored Cannon Beetle Larva being shortened to the Armored Cannon Larva, and even this page itself has had a name change to the current "Red Bulborb". Although this name is more convenient and easier to classify, it technically is not the most recent/updated name. So I think we should change it to simply "Bulborb". There is already a disambiguation page for Bulborbs, so it might not be too confusing. However, the many times the name is mentioned in other articles will be inaccurate, which would make things more messy. I still think that we should do this, but I'm not quite sure if its necessary. | So I noticed that starting from ''Pikmin 3'', the Red Bulborb has been just called "Bulborb".

:I've thought of that too. I agree it should be renamed to "Bulborb"...even if that will generate a lot of confusion. However, we should wait until we get the next Pikmin game, which should be around the corner, given all the interviews, rumors, and what have you. If the next game calls it "Red Bulborb" again, then we'll be glad we haven't changed anything. If it, however, keeps the "Bulborb" name, then we might as well go all the way and standardize the name everywhere. — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 16:35, 16 February 2019 (EST) | |||
