The Snow Bulborb is an enemy in the Pikmin 2 game. They are another kind of Dwarf Bulborb, in which these particular ones resembling miniature Hairy Bulborbs without any plumage. They are as similar as any other Dwarf Bulborb, and are as lethal as every one. They are usually found near other Hairy Bulborbs, or in cave terrain covered by snow or ice.
Olimar's Notes
Like the Dwarf Red Bulborb, the Snow Bulborb is a member of the breadbug family that seeks to survive by intimidating the appearance and behavior of a bulborb. Its pale coloration and blue spots make for easy identification. In particular, this organism mimics the Hairy Bulborb, but is of course unable to grow the hair that gives the Hairy Bulborb its name. However, as the Hairy Bulborb has been known to lose its hair in certain circumstances, the Snow Bulborb is an effective mimic that is often mistaken for a member of the same species.
Louie's Notes
Best grilled and served hot over a bed of fresh spinach and crumbled blue cheese.
How to Kill
Pikmin
If you have a lot of Pikmin, swarm it and it should die before eating any Pikmin. Alternatively, aim and throw a bunch of Pikmin at its back. If one lands directly on it, it'll die right away.
Captains
Run around it and swat it until it's dead, avoiding its attack.
