'''Bulborbs''' ({{j|チャッピー|Chappī|Chappy}}), known as the '''Spotty Bulborbs''' in ''Pikmin'' and the '''Red Bulborbs''' ({{j|アカチャッピー|Aka Chappī|Red Chappy}}) in {{p2}}, are common [[enemy|enemies]] in the {{Ps}}. They appear prominently in every main game and are the most iconic enemies in the series, rivaling the [[Pikmin family | Pikmin]] and [[Olimar]] as mascots of the franchise. | |||
Bulborbs have pointed snouts, eyes on stalks, and a red back with white spots. They only have two teeth, sharp fangs on either side of their mouth. They are largely nocturnal creatures and spend much of their time sleeping, only waking up when detecting potential prey, or [[Night expedition|during the night.]] They are often found sleeping near [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s, which are actually members of a different species. | Bulborbs have pointed snouts, eyes on stalks, and a red back with white spots.
