'''Dwarf Bulborbs''' ({{j|コチャッピー|Ko Chappī|Small Chappy}}) are small and common [[enemy|enemies]] in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]]. In {{p2}}, they are known as '''Dwarf Red Bulborbs''' ({{j|アカコチャッピー|Aka Ko Chappī|Red Small Chappy}}) after various subspecies with different colorations were discovered. At the end of ''Pikmin'' it is known that they are not of the same species as the [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]], and in ''Pikmin 2'', they are revealed to belong to the [[Breadbug family]], not the [[Grub-dog]] family. Second only to [[Bulborb]]s in ubiquity as the common, standard enemies of the series, they are nonetheless the most numerically significant in aggregated count overall. | '''Dwarf Bulborbs''' ({{j|コチャッピー|Ko Chappī|Small Chappy}}) are small and common [[enemy|enemies]] in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]].

These enemies closely resemble [[Bulborb]]s in appearance, but are much smaller. Dwarf Bulborbs can be easily defeated by [[swarm]]ing them, or by [[throw]]ing a single [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] directly on top of them. In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', if a leader throws a [[Purple Pikmin]] on it, it will remain attached while the creature falls. In the first game, bothering one will make it release a loud scream, waking up the nearest Spotty Bulborb. Dwarf Bulborbs do scream in ''Pikmin 2'', when a Pikmin is thrown onto its back, but the scream does absolutely nothing. They bark when a [[leader]] or Pikmin is detected by them in the second game, as do the other [[Breadbug family|dwarf bulborbs]] and [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s. If this creature is [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]] in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]], when it breaks out of the stone it runs around eating any thrown [[Pikpik carrot]]s at a much greater speed than normal. | These enemies closely resemble [[Bulborb]]s in appearance, but are much smaller.

Dwarf Bulborbs have a far deeper-pitched cry in ''Pikmin 3''. They no longer shriek loudly as they did in ''Pikmin 2'' when killed, but instead emit a deep, throaty sound much like the Red Bulborbs in ''Pikmin 3'' do. This change seems questionable, as their smaller larynx should indeed produce a higher-pitched sound than that of a Red Bulborb, as seen with [[Bulborb Larva]]. | Dwarf Bulborbs have a far deeper-pitched cry in ''Pikmin 3''.
