{{otheruses|the basic small Bulborb|other uses|Dwarf Bulborb (disambiguation)}}

The '''Dwarf Bulborb''' ({{j|コチャッピー|Ko Chappī|Small Chappy}}), named the '''Dwarf Red Bulborb''' ({{j|アカコチャッピー|Aka Ko Chappī|Red Small Chappy}}) in {{p2}}, is a small and common [[enemy]] in the {{ps}}.

They are small bipedal creatures equipped with a pair of eyes on stalks, two fangs on either side of their mouth, two toes on each leg; each having a single claw, and a curved snout. Their bodies are beige-colored and their backs are red, which are covered with white spots.

Dwarf Bulborbs strongly resemble juvenile [[Bulborb]]s. However, they are actually a different species in the [[breadbug family]], and mimic the appearance of Bulborbs to evade predation. They are rather weak and can be easily defeated by [[throw]]ing a single [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] directly on top of them.

Exclusively in the [[Pikmin (game)|first game]], pestering one for long enough will prompt it to scream for help, waking up the nearest Spotty Bulborb.

}}

==Behavior==
Dwarf Bulborbs are largely sedentary, idly sniffing the ground and waiting for prey to pass by. When detecting potential prey, be it a [[leader]] or [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], they will audibly bark and begin pursuit. Dwarf Bulborbs will never stray far from their territory. If led outside of a certain range, they will stop chasing their target and return to where they started.

Dwarf Bulborbs attack by biting nearby Pikmin. If they succeed in biting one, they will slowly chew their catch before swallowing; killing the Bulborb during this process will free the Pikmin. They can only catch and eat one Pikmin at a time. A Dwarf Bulborb will also attempt to shake Pikmin off of its body if attacked.

Exclusively in {{p1}}, Dwarf Bulborbs will scream for help when harassed, waking up nearby Spotty Bulborbs. While only seen in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]], this scream can wake up nearby [[Spotty Bulbears]] as well.

==Locations==
{{see|Dwarf Bulborb/Locations}}

==Strategy==
{{guide}}

===With Pikmin===
Dwarf Bulborbs are never large threats. [[Throw]]ing a single Pikmin onto their back will kill them instantly, and their fairly low health makes [[swarm]]ing a viable tactic as well. Their only true threat comes in their numbers or when they appear near other enemies, in which case they may be able to eat a Pikmin or two in the chaos of the battle. Prioritizing them first should simplify things — it won't take long to defeat them.

If a fight against one drags on in {{p1}}, it will scream for help, waking up nearby Spotty Bulborbs. Try to kill them before they can; if they manage to scream, retreat until the Spotty Bulborb falls back asleep, and return to finish the job.

[[Purple Pikmin]] are exceptionally effective. Their homing stomp means that accuracy isn't a concern, although note that they will cling to the body for a moment after it dies. Rapidly throwing Purple Pikmin in the general vicinity of a group will stun the entire group, as well as likely kill most, if not all of them. This is particularly handy for sublevels with huge numbers of them, such as the [[Cavern of Chaos]]'s eighth sublevel.

===Alternate methods===
Given their easy to dodge bites and shakes, [[punch]]ing a Dwarf Bulborb to death is an extremely easy affair.

[[Oatchi]], even with minimal upgrades, can kill them in seconds. If his [[Rush]] has been sufficiently upgraded, he can bowl through groups of them to instantly kill any he hits.

==Biology==
By the end of the first game, it is revealed that the Dwarf Bulborb is actually a completely different species from the [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]], specifically, they are members of the breadbug family. As such, one could most likely assume that these creatures are masters of mimicry. Whether or not this is to avoid predation directly from grub-dogs, or from other species is unclear.

Like the [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]], they have a very mammalian appearance, sporting the soft, leathery skin and bulbous eyes of their pseudo-cousin. They also have the same spot patterns and "mandibles" as that of the [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]]. However, these look-alikes have blue eyes with massive black pupils in {{p1}}, while [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]]s have purple eyes. In {{p2}}, they have pure blue eyes that more closely resemble the purple eyes of the [[Bulborb|Red Bulborb]]. In {{p3}}, their spots are relatively larger and are now indented, with the details of the eyes including large black pupils and light blue irises that even more closely resemble the eyes of the ''Pikmin 3'' [[Bulborb]]. In ''Pikmin 3'' and onward, their snouts are shorter than their grub-dog counterpart, as well as [[Albino Dwarf Bulborb]]s. Oddly enough, the [[Moldy Dwarf Bulborb]] and [[Dwarf Frosty Bulborb]] have the same shorter snout, despite being grub-dogs.

Behavior-wise, they seem to either stay close by Bulborbs, or move in packs. They also are active during the day.

Dwarf Bulborbs have far deeper-pitched cries in ''Pikmin 3'' and {{p4}}. They can no longer shreik loudly, and instead emit deep, throaty sounds much like the Bulborbs in ''Pikmin 3'' do. This change makes little biological sense, as their smaller larynx should indeed produce a higher-pitched sound than that of a Red Bulborb.

'''Translation'''
{{transcript|
A kind of Breadbug that mimics a larval Bulborb by taking advantage of its habit of recognizing other by the spots on its abdomen. It  is active near the territory of an adult Bulborb, protecting itself from enemies and making it easier to hunt prey.

Feature #1: Mimicry
:Its skillful mimicry makes them appear at first glance to be nothing more than a parent and child.
:(Image text: "The number of spots is lower than in an adult Bulborb")

Feature #2: Diurnality
:Due to the nature of the original Breadbug, it is active during the day and returns to its nest at night.

{{naming
|common     = Dwarf Bulborb. The creature is called as such because it is a dwarf-sized mimic of a [[Bulborb]]. In ''Pikmin'', the only "Bulborb-like" creatures were this and the Bulborb, so there was no need to disambiguate its name with a color. Hence, it was just called "Dwarf Bulborb" in the first game. ''Pikmin 2'' introduced other species, so disambiguation was needed, but ''Pikmin 3'' went back to calling it Dwarf Bulborb, even though multiple types of Bulborb and mimics still exist in that game.
|jpcommon   = It is called {{j|小チャッピー|Ko Chappī|Small Chappy|f=tp}} in ''Pikmin'', {{j|アカコチャッピー|Aka Ko Chappī|Red Small Chappy|f=tp}} in ''Pikmin 2'', and {{j|コチャッピー|Ko Chappī|Small Chappy|f=tp}} from ''Pikmin 3'' onwards.
|jpname     = {{j|ベニデメマダラモドキ|Beni Deme Madara Modoki|Pseudo Spotted Crimson Bug-eye|f=tp}}. In ''Pikmin'', its Japanese name was simply {{j|デメマダラモドキ|Deme Madara Modoki|Pseudo Spotted Bug-eye|f=tp}}.
|scientific = ''Pansarus pseudooculii russus''. ''Pansarus pseudooculii'' is the species name used for other Breadbug mimics, and ''russus'' reflects the subspecies name for the Bulborb. In the versions of ''Pikmin 2'' before the European Wii release, the word ''pseudooculii'' is written with only one 'o', which is presumably a mistake, since all other dwarf mimics use two 'o's.
|internal   = Internally, it is called <code>chappy</code> in ''Pikmin'' ({{j|チャッピー|Chappy}} is the Japanese name for "Bulborb"), whereas the [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]] has the internal name of <code>swallow</code>. In ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3'', the [[Bulborb]]'s internal name was changed to <code>chappy</code> and therefore the dwarf Bulborb's internal name changed to <code>kochappy</code>.
|prerelease = In an [[Unused content in Pikmin 2|early script]] left inside ''Pikmin 2'', it is revealed that is placeholder scientific name was ''Pansarus Psuedooculii RED''. Not only is the word "RED" a placeholder, much like in the early scientific name of the Bulborb, but "pseudo" is also misspelled.

==Trivia==
* In {{p2}} exclusively, like the other [[Bulborb]]-mimicking [[Breadbug family|breadbugs]], if this creature is [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]] in the game's [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]], when it breaks out of the stone, it runs around eating any [[throw]]n [[pikpik carrot]]s at a much greater speed than normal.
