The '''Frosty Bulborb''' ({{j|キンキンチャッピー|Kinkin Chappī|Ice-Cold Chappy}}) is an [[enemy]] in {{p4}}. It resembles a [[Bulborb]] in appearance, but is blue in coloration and has [[ice]] crystals covering its back and midsection. It acts almost identically to other Bulborbs, with the only notable difference being that it can freeze Pikmin other than [[Ice Pikmin]] if the ice crystals on its back have not been melted. It also has a juvenile form, the [[Dwarf Frosty Bulborb]].

== Behavior ==
The Frosty Bulborb acts just like other Bulborbs in that it lies asleep on the ground waiting until something wakes it up during the day, but it patrols its territory at night. If awoken or it notices prey, it will proceed to charge and attack the player and their squad of Pikmin by biting at them, eating up to a maximum of five Pikmin per bite, until they have left its territory. It will then stop chasing and return to its territory area and patrol for a little while until falling back to sleep. Since the Frosty Bulborb has ice crystals on its back, all Pikmin other than Ice Pikmin or Glow Pikmin will be frozen solid if they touch any part of the enemy. The only way to counteract this is to melt the ice using [[fire]]. Any fire source, such as a [[fire starter]] or [[fire geyser]], can melt the ice. Once the ice has been melted, the Frosty Bulborb acts like a normal Bulborb until the ice automatically regenerates after a little while.

== Appearance ==
The Frosty Bulborb looks very similar to the normal Bulborb, but it is blue in coloration instead of red. Similar to the [[Hairy Bulborb]], its back and its face share similar colors, with the nose being colored separately, in this instance pink. It also has a layer of ice crystals littering its back and midsection. Therefore, its back and spots cannot be seen unless the ice is melted.

== Locations ==
* [[Hero's Hideaway]]
** There is 1 Frosty Bulborb in this area. It is located east of the [[Feasting Center]] base, near some [[Dwarf Frosty Bulborb]]s and [[Gildemandwee]]s.
* [[Frozen Inferno]]
** There is 1 Frosty Bulborb in sublevel 2 of this cave. It is located to the northwest of the landing site, near the cave exit and the Dwarf Frosty Bulborb.
* [[Strategic Freezeway]]
** There is 1 Frosty Bulborb in this Dandori Challenge stage. It is located in the northwest room of the stage, near some Dwarf Frosty Bulborbs, some wild [[Ice Pikmin]], and the [[bonfire altar]] with the [[Red Pikmin]]. It holds the [[Love Nugget]].
* [[1st Story: Bulblaxes]]
** There is 1 Frosty Bulborb in this story of the [[Trial of the Sage Leaf]]. It is located in the upper part of the story, directly to the south of the base. It is close to a [[fire geyser]].

== Strategy ==
{{guide}}
This type of Bulborb will freeze any Pikmin other than [[Ice Pikmin]] or [[Glow Pikmin]] unless the ice on its back has been melted, such as with a [[fire starter]] or a [[fire geyser]]. Therefore, Ice Pikmin or Glow Pikmin are the ideal types to fight it, though some locations will not allow for Glow Pikmin to be used. [[Swarm]]ing or [[charge|charging]] at it with a large [[squad]] of Pikmin is effective, but you can also circle around the enemy and throw Pikmin onto its back. The most effective way to defeat a Frosty Bulborb is to have a large squad of Pikmin and, using [[Oatchi]], [[Rush]] at its back to launch them all on at once. If the ice has been melted, any type can be used and Oatchi will not need the {{oatchi|Thermal Defense}}.

== Notes ==
=== Dalmo's notes ===
{{transcript|A creature that thrives in the coldest climates, its ice-coated haunches shimmer like a living jewel in the frigid air. You can admire the way it sparkles to your heart's content, but don't get too close! You'll get frosty-frozen on the spot if you touch it!|block=y}}

=== Olimar's notes ===
{{transcript|A Bulborb with large amounts of ice and frost covering its midsection. It's unusual to find ice such as this attached to a living organism, as it's cold enough to freeze small animals and regenerates any ice mass that gets broken off.

This Bulborb species's intercellular stores of sugars, amino acids, and organic acids provide it with a plantlike resistance to freezing, making it possible for the Bulborb to touch the ice without freezing itself.|block=y}}

*'''Translation'''
{{transcript|
A Bulborb whose abdomen is covered in ice and frost. Its cells store sugars, amino acids, and organic acids, so they do not freeze despite being in constant contact with low-temperature ice.

Feature #1: Covered in ice
:It protects itself with hard, cold ice and freezes its prey to catch it.
:(Image text: "The glands in its spots eject supercooled sweat, forming a frost on its abdomen similar to that which forms on plants")

Feature #2: Adaptation to cold environments
:Its has adapted to low-temperature environments, and can operate even in sub-zero temperatures.
:(Image text: "It is closely related not to the Fiery Bulbax, but to the Hairy Bulborb")

== Trivia ==
[[File:Frosty Bulborb Freezes Shearwig.jpg|thumb|A Frosty Bulborb freezing a [[Shearwig]].]]
* Frosty Bulborbs can freeze other enemies if they stay in contact for long enough. This most commonly happens during [[night expeditions]].
* If the player uses a [[Lightning Shock]] near a Frosty Bulborb after it becomes active in a [[night expedition]] or the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 4)|Piklopedia]], it will lose its ice and glowing red eyes; however, it will still target [[Lumiknoll|Lumiknolls and Tricknolls]] and be visible through walls in a red silhouette.
** Even more strangely, the ice on its back will still be visible in a red silhouette despite being destroyed after it was shocked.
