The '''Bulborb''' ({{j|チャッピー| | The '''Bulborb''' ({{j|チャッピー|Chappī|Chappy}}) (originally known as the '''Spotty Bulborb''', later known as the '''Red Bulborb''') is a common type of [[enemy]] in {{p}}, {{p2}}, {{p3}}, and {{p4}}, and a [[boss]] in {{hp}}. Bulborbs have a large mouth, eyes on stalks, and a red back with white spots. They are nocturnal creatures, but when there are [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] nearby, they will wake up and try to eat the Pikmin. They are considered to be the most standard and iconic enemies of the {{ps}}. They are often found alongside [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s, which are actually a different species. | ||
