'''Red Bulborbs''' (or Bulborbs in the European version) are the most common Bulborb in ''Pikmin Adventure'', and are battled in almost every level. They are usually small, but larger ones can be found occasionally.

Yellow Bulborbs, in addition to their basic melee biting attack, are capable of spewing orbs of water that ensnare players, rendering them helpless and useless until they are freed. If a player is trapped in a water bubble, they can be freed by having other Pikmin attack them. Unlike other types of Bulborbs, Yellows have the ability to charge at players which will instantly kill smaller Pikmin and damage larger ones. They have difficulty changing direction while charging, however, so this attack isn't too difficult to avoid.

{{transcript|The different size spots suggest that these may not be a true subspecies of Bulborb at all. Or perhaps they're normal Bulborbs feeling a little under the weather.}}

'''Creepy Beebs''' are the smallest enemies found in ''Pikmin Adventure''. They are unique in the sense that they are listed as belonging to the "Beeb family", a family that is not listed in the current ''Pikmin'' series. They resemble small purple orbs with four legs and two large, stalked eyes. They also have an antenna coming out of the tops of their heads.

{{transcript|Creepy Beebs are about the size of Olimar and move in packs. They're usually quite peaceful creatures, but their flexible legs and formidable charge attack help them when they feel threatened.}}

'''Bombardier Beebs''' are one of the more rare enemies seen in ''[[Pikmin Adventure]]''. They are a variant of the common Beeb enemy that explodes after a few seconds of being spotted, making them similar to the [[Volatile Dweevil]]s from ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' in means of attack.

{{transcript|This creature is equipped with a fuse and will detonate when approached. Whatever you do, don't go anywhere near it carrying something flammable. Or inflammable, for that matter.}}

'''Blowhogs''' are quite rare, and are amongst the first enemies the player encounters in ''[[Pikmin Adventure]]''. They attack by changing their snout from an opening to a needle, and charging at the players. The player will first meet them in the level Burst the Giant Balloon.

{{transcript|This unfriendly beast attacks by shooting needles from its mouth but mellows considerably after the initial assault. Still, a balloon with needles inside of it... That sounds like a dangerous combination!}}

'''Telescoping Pumphogs''' are enemies that appear after the player defeats the [[Bulblord]]. Some are completely stationary and are difficult to kill when they charge up for an attack. Others delve underground and pop back up to shoot projectiles. They are based on the [[Blowhog]]s from the ''Pikmin'' series. When she was younger, Monita named them "huffy puffers", which spoofs the sentence "{{w|Three Little Piggies|I'll huff and puff and blow this house down!}}" in folklore.

{{transcript|This creature compresses air in its bellows-shaped body and uses the pressure to shoot water or projectiles. I called them Huffy Puffers in my younger days. Oh, the quirks of a single core processor.}}
