In {{p1}}, Spotty Bulbears largely spend their time sleeping, only waking up if disturbed by the Pikmin or [[Olimar]]. They have piercing red pupils when awake and actively pursuing prey. They have slightly more health than their Spotty Bulborb counterparts, making confrontation riskier. The red spots on their back constantly change in size, even after the creature's death. They have a noticeable [[Health#Regeneration|regeneration]] factor, healing if the player takes too much time to kill them.
In {{p1}}, Spotty Bulbears largely spend their time sleeping, only waking up if disturbed by the Pikmin or [[Olimar]]. Their pupils change color between a deep indigo and a piercing red depending on the circumstance. They have slightly more health than their Spotty Bulborb counterparts, making confrontation riskier. The red spots on their back constantly change in size, even after the creature's death. They have a noticeable [[Health#Regeneration|regeneration]] factor, healing if the player takes too much time to kill them.


In {{p2}}, Spotty Bulbears never sleep, spending all of their time patrolling the map in search of prey. They have far greater maneuverability than other Grub-dogs, freely wandering the entire map in search of prey, often followed by multiple Dwarf Bulbears. In any sublevel or area where a Spotty Bulbear is active, extreme caution must be taken until it is safely disposed of, as it is capable of attacking and killing Pikmin who are currently working on tasks or even simply idling, thanks to its high mobility. Most notably, one will appear in the [[Perplexing Pool]] after Day 30. Its mobility means that it can even wander into the landing site to eat Pikmin idle by the [[Onion]]s and the Ship, making it a priority target.

*Like their [[Dwarf Bulbear|younger counterpart]], the coloration of the Bulbear's eyes has changed multiple times throughout the series. They are red/indigo depending on circumstance in ''Pikmin'', always indigo in ''Pikmin 2'', and purple in ''Pikmin 3'' and ''Pikmin 4''.
