The '''Bulborb''' is a species of the [[Grub-dog|Grub-dog family]] which consists of four subspecies. They are some of the most dangerous enemies in the [[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin games]], but also some of the most common, appearing in almost every area in both games. Bulborbs are nocturnal and sleep during most of the day, preferring to hunt at night. [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s were thought to be juvenile Bulborbs up until the end of ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', and were correctly classified as members of the [[Breadbug (family)|Breadbug family]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. [[Captain Olimar]] [[Ship's Log|noted]] that Bulborbs looked similar to his dog, Bulbie, which is how they got their name. | The '''Bulborb''' is a species of the [[Grub-dog|Grub-dog family]] which consists of four subspecies.

The Bulborbs are generally the same physically, usually having minor differences such as color, size, and awakening range. All Bulborbs are bipedal, have fangs that are on the edge of its mouth, a rounded colored backside, two stalk eyes and large snouts coupled with their large mouths. They will usually let out a loud yawn before falling asleep which is then followed by loud snoring. | The Bulborbs are generally the same physically, usually having minor differences such as color, size, and awakening range.

Bulborbs are apex predators of [[PNF-404]]. They have high vitality and enormous appetites, being able to chomp as many as five Pikmin with one bite. However, this also means that they have no natural enemies, and often leave themselves completely exposed while sleeping. Take advantage of this by sneaking up behind a sleeping Bulborb and mobbing it with Pikmin for a fast and easy kill, or toss Pikmin onto its back to ensure minimal loss. Bulborbs can vary in terms of strength and aggression. Tactics like these will work on most, but you may need to vary your strategies depending on the particular Bulborb you're facing and what the surrounding environmeent is like. | Bulborbs are apex predators of [[PNF-404]].
