The '''Breadbug''', also known as the '''Vanilla Breadbug''', is an enemy in the [[Pikmin series|Pikmin]] games. This creature resembles a bread roll in appearance, and is the namesake of the [[Breadbug family]].It holds the Space Float ship part in Pikmin 1. It does no harm to the Pikmin directly, though it can pull away small objects (in [[Pikmin 1]]), or both small and rather large (in [[Pikmin 2]]) objects vital to the Pikmin into its dwelling. If Pikmin are holding onto something when the Breadbug pulls it into its nest, they will die. It has a large amount of tough blubber, making it immune to swarming.

The easiest way to kill a Breadbug is to wait until it takes hold of an object, then swarm Pikmin onto that object and return it to any [[Onion]] or the Ship's [[research Pod|pod]]. The Onion or the Ship receives the object and the Breadbug takes damage. This method usually has to be done twice, though the first hit is so strong, it may just take one Pikmin thrown on its back to finish it off. It is also possible to defeat a Breadbug by throwing Pikmin on top of it, but this is slow as there is a period of immunity after each successful throw. The members of this species encountered in Pikmin 1 move more swiftly than those in Pikmin 2, making them more difficult to kill via this method. Strangely, [[Olimar]] can damage the Breadbug by hitting it in Pikmin 1, but this has no effect in Pikmin 2.
 
Another easy way to kill the Breadbug is to drop [[Purple Pikmin]] on it. Their heavy weight will hurt the Breadbug, and they also try to home in as they land. The fastest way to kill it in Pikmin 2 is to use an [[Ultra-bitter spray]] on it, which will make it vulnerable to swarming.

===Captains===
Strangely, [[Olimar]] can damage the Breadbug by hitting it in Pikmin 1 even though the pikmin cannot. This ability was removed in Pikmin 2.
