The '''Bulborb''' ({{j|チャッピー|Chappī|Chappy}}), | The '''Bulborb''' ({{j|チャッピー|Chappī|Chappy}}), named '''Spotty Bulborb''' in {{p1}} and '''Red Bulborb''' ({{j|アカチャッピー|Aka Chappī|Red Chappy}}) in {{p2}}, is a common [[enemy]] in the {{Ps}}. Bulborbs are the most prominent enemies in the franchise and appear in all 4 numbered ''Pikmin'' games.

Bulborbs are the most commonly encountered member of the particularly extensive and diverse [[Grub-dog family]]. | ||
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.
