As Pikmin that the player's leaders can use, the Bulbmin are identical to other Pikmin types, but look like Bulborbs and sound different. They have average capabilities in terms of mobility and strength, but are immune to all elemental hazards ([[fire]], [[electricity]], [[water]], and [[poison]]). As beneficial as their abilities may seem, they cannot leave the caves with the group, for an unknown reason. Instead, they stay behind and watch the leaders and fellow Pikmin leave. Because of this, they will not count towards the overall Pikmin count, although any deaths do count towards the lost Pikmin total. Them being left behind when a cave is exited does not count as a death, however. This makes them ideal for use in [[Candypop Bud]]s.

There is no information regarding what Bulbmin inside Bulborbs actually look like. It is possible that they are green, since they appear as green dots on the [[radar]], and since their leaves glow green when idle. Although they may also be orange, given the color of their stem, as well as the color of the conical aiming [[HUD#Cursor|cursor]] when a Bulbmin is in hand, and the color of the trail they produce when [[throw]]n. [[Onion]]s of both of these colours are seen in the best ending of Pikmin, meaning both options are valid. That said, what is known is that their buds and flowers are white.

The only way that Bulbmin can be killed before ever being whistled is if they are [[Crushing|crushed]], or they fall over the side of a level into the [[Pit|abyss]] when shaken by an enemy attack, explosion, or other sufficient force. When that happens, their deaths will not count for the player's death tally.
