[[File:Shaded Terrace P3 Bulborbs.jpg|thumb|[[Dwarf Bulborbs]] are often found congregating around a [[Bulborb]].]]
Some creatures keep a bond with others. To maximize the chances of survival, some enemies can be seen next to others, normally of their own species, and oftentimes interacting with them when a fight for survival is taking place. [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s, [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s, etc. are often found next to larger enemies of the same species or of the species they are mimicking. When under attack in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', they may scream in order to wake up their larger allies.
Some creatures keep a bond with others. To maximize the chances of survival, some enemies can be seen next to others, normally of their own species, and oftentimes interacting with them when a fight for survival is taking place. [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s and [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s, for example, are often observed clustering around a leader who is either [[Spotty Bulbear|a larger member of the same species]] or [[Bulborb|an adult of the species they are mimicking]]. When under attack in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', they may scream in order to wake up their larger allies.


Other creatures choose to follow a leader, normally of their own family. An example is the [[Bulbmin]], who lose all sense of control should their leader perish, the [[Scornet]]s, who obey the command of the [[Scornet Maestro]], and the [[Shearwig]], which can be found under the control of a [[Queen Shearwig]], and are otherwise independent.
