"A grub-dog larva in its third stage of development, this creature's body structure is nearing maturation. However, unlike mature bulbears, it has yet to claim its own patrol route, and thus is dependent upon its parents for guarding direction." | ''"A grub-dog larva in its third stage of development, this creature's body structure is nearing maturation.

"Remove innards, stuff with sage and finely aged prosciutto, and broil until golden brown. The ultimate crowd pleasers!" | ''"Remove innards, stuff with sage and finely aged prosciutto, and broil until golden brown. The ultimate crowd pleasers!"'' | ||

In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', Dwarf Bulbears are essentially stronger versions of [[Dwarf Red Bulborb|Dwarf Bulborbs]]. They have three times more health than Dwarf Bulborbs, meaning they require three pikmin thrown onto their backs to be killed. They preform backflips to shake off attacking Pikmin. Dwarf Bulbears will shriek when aggravated to alert any Spotty Bulbears in the vicinity. | In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', Dwarf Bulbears are essentially stronger versions of [[Dwarf Red Bulborb|Dwarf Bulborbs]].

Aside from [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 1)|Challenge Mode]], Dwarf Bulbears only appear in the [[Distant Spring]] in groups of three, in place of where a Spotty Bulbear was killed the day before. | Aside from [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 1)|Challenge Mode]], Dwarf Bulbears only appear in the [[Distant Spring]] in groups of three, in place of where a Spotty Bulbear was killed the day before. | ||

The Spotty Bulbear's behavior changes much in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', and so to does that of the Dwarf Bulbear. Spotty Bulbears roam the map in search of food rather than sleeping, and if they come near a pack of Dwarf Bulbears, the tiny creatures will ''yip'' and follow their parent. A group of Dwarf Bulbears can make defeating a large Bulbear especially difficult, as they will not only eat any Pikmin that fall to the ground, but may go directly for the [[captain]] and the rest of the Pikmin swarm. In order to cope with this threat, a well-timed [[Ultra-bitter Spray]] can be used to petrify the entire group of Bulbears, including the parent. With a bit of luck, a barrage of [[Purple Pikmin]] can also stun all the creatures within a small radius, even if they are not hit directly, leaving them vulnerable to attack. Also, if any number of Dwarf Bulbears are sniffing the ground and a captain happens to throw a [[Pikmin family |Pikmin]] in their way, they will attack it, but, if they happen to see Pikmin and a [[Spotty Bulbear]] at the same time, they will eat the Pikmin thrown at them, and then run to follow the Bulbear, which they seemingly tell the captain's location to, because soon after, the Bulbear (regardless of whether it was actually looking at the captain at the time) will come over to attack him. | The Spotty Bulbear's behavior changes much in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', and so to does that of the Dwarf Bulbear.
