They populate the [[Distant Planet]], and are found in almost every area at dusk and day. They attack Pikmin by chasing them, grabbing them, and swallowing them live. They can be killed with large amounts of Pikmin attacking them from behind and their dead bodies can be brought to the [[Onion (disambiguation)|onions]] to produce more Pikmin. There are many species related to the Bulborb, including [[pikipedia:Grub-dog|Bulblaxes]], Bulbears, and {{iw|pikipedia|Water Dumple}}s. | ||
In the original ''Pikmin'', the Bulborb is known as Spotty Bulborb; in ''Pikmin 2'', it is known as Red Bulborb, which is a name occasionally used in the ''Smash'' series. ''Pikmin 3'' and onwards simply refer to it as Bulborb. | |||

A Red Bulborb can appear on the right side of the [[Distant Planet]] stage. It stands in place, looking around and acting as an extra platform. However, standing on it is very dangerous, as it may chomp down on any lingering players and carry them off screen, resulting in a [[one-hit KO]]. The Bulborb occasionally opens its wide mouth, similarly quickly eating and one-hit KOing any character who lands in it. | A Red Bulborb can appear on the right side of the [[Distant Planet]] stage.

The | In {{forwiiu}}, the Bulborb's model is updated to resemble its more detailed physical appearance in ''Pikmin 3''. {{for3ds}} retains the more simplistic ''Pikmin'' design for the Bulborb's appearances in Distant Planet and [[Smash Run]], likley due to technical limitations. | ||
The Bulborb keeps its ''Brawl'' roles in Distant Planet and End of Day. A Bulborb can also appear on the left side of [[Garden of Hope]], and while it does not interact with the fighters directly, its presence stops Pikmin from arriving to rebuild any broken structures until it leaves. | |||

The | The Bulborb appears as a powerful enemy. It is much smaller than in Distant Planet, now being about the correct size compared to Olimar. Like all strong enemies it has [[knockback resistance]], can appear as a target enemy, and drops several powerups when defeated. Its attacks include: | ||

As a hazard on Distant Planet, the Red Bulborb no longer carries fighters off the screen in its mouth; instead, its bite causes an [[instant KO]] to fighters who get too close. The Bulborb in the background of Distant Planet is now fully-animated instead of a still image, and it can be seen walking around the grassy terrain instead of merely sleeping. | As a hazard on Distant Planet, the Red Bulborb no longer carries fighters off the screen in its mouth; instead, its bite causes an [[instant KO]] to fighters who get too close.

==Trivia== | |||
*Bulborb's trophy in ''Brawl'' claims the creature first appeared in ''Pikmin 2''. This is incorrect, as the Bulborb is in both ''Pikmin'' games. The reason for this may be that in ''Pikmin'', their real name is "Spotty Bulborb", whereas in the sequel, they're known as "Red Bulborbs" although it always refers to the same species. | |||
