====Pikmin====
If you have a large group of purple Pikmin with you, simply rain them down on the Orange Bulborb. Even with the Bulborb's head start, the purples will have a good chance of stunning it with serious damage.
If you have enough room, you can sneak up behind it while it's sleeping, and throw as many Pikmin as you can on its back. As long as you have plenty of Pikmin, it'll die before it can eat your PIkmin. Otherwise, just throw Pikmin onto it and hope for the best.
 
====Captains====
Attack it and run when it attacks. Repeat until it's dead, this could take a while though.


Orange Bulborbs are tricky without purples. It's never wise to attack a large grub-dog from the front since they'll almost surely attack, and since the Orange Bulborb will wake up before you can attack cleanly, you'll be in trouble. If you can approach it from the back, quickly run and rain Pikmin on it. It can then be defeated like any other Bulborb. If you have no choice but to approach it from the front, dismiss your Pikmin and use a captain to wake it up. Let the Bulborb chase you until you run out of its range. When it goes back to sleep, you can attack it in the back. Orange Bulborbs also have a slight delay in between its "yawning" sequence and waking up again, so use this opportunity to pummel it with your Pikmin.

The Orange Bulborb is an enemy in Pikmin 2. It has a general Bulborb appearance, but has black skin, yellow bloodshot eyes, and its backside is orange with black spots, the total effect making it look somewhat like a ladybug. It has the same strategy that all Bulborbs use for attacking, however it is just that it is a unique Bulborb species that is woken up more easily, making it difficult to defeat with the traditional Bulborb-defeating tactics. It is otherwise the same as the other Bulborbs. They may be found in many places such as the Bulblax Kingdom, or on land in the Wistful Wild. Usually when there is one of these around, it is almost sure that there may be many Dwarf Orange Bulborbs around.

Olimar's Notes

This bulborb species boasts a garish color pattern, with a deep orange body and black spots. The orange bulborb's yellow, bloodshot eyes make it clear that this grub-dog is excessively edgy and high-strung, making it much easier to wake from a deep sleep than other species in the bulborb family.

Louie's Notes

This bulborb's meaty flanks make for salaciously savory steaks that shouldn't be missed.

If you have a large group of purple Pikmin with you, simply rain them down on the Orange Bulborb. Even with the Bulborb's head start, the purples will have a good chance of stunning it with serious damage.

Orange Bulborbs are tricky without purples. It's never wise to attack a large grub-dog from the front since they'll almost surely attack, and since the Orange Bulborb will wake up before you can attack cleanly, you'll be in trouble. If you can approach it from the back, quickly run and rain Pikmin on it. It can then be defeated like any other Bulborb. If you have no choice but to approach it from the front, dismiss your Pikmin and use a captain to wake it up. Let the Bulborb chase you until you run out of its range. When it goes back to sleep, you can attack it in the back. Orange Bulborbs also have a slight delay in between its "yawning" sequence and waking up again, so use this opportunity to pummel it with your Pikmin.
