Notes

If you approach it while it's sleeping, it will immediately wake up, leap to its feet, and peer around nervously. With such finely tuned senses, it's no wonder this Bulborb can get a bit sleep-deprived. Though its big bloodshot eyes look surprisingly cute!

Olimar

This Bulborb species boasts a garish color pattern with a deep-orange body and black spots. The orange Bulborb's yellow, bloodshot eyes make it clear that this Bulborb is excessively edgy and high-strung, making it much easier to wake from deep sleep than other species in the Grub-Dog family.

Louie

This Bulborb's meaty flanks make for deliciously savory steaks that shouldn't be missed.

Notes

Alph

Structural flaw: eyeballs, back

I appreciate the warning coloration to let us know it's more dangerous than the other models. Anything that risky is best approached with a Bomb Rock while it sleeps.

Brittany

It's lavishly colored and so anxiety ridden that a few footsteps can wake it up instantly. Kind of like me! It's also a terror when it's awake, which, again, same.

Charlie

Those bulging eyes are honed for battle, with no known blind spots. We often find them asleep, but they wake as soon as we get close. For all we know, they're only pretending to sleep to lull us into a false sense of security. Still, sometimes that one second where they're waking up is all we need to go in hard.

Louie

This bulborb's meaty flanks make for salaciously savory steaks that shouldn't be missed.

Orange Bulborbs are similar to standard Bulborbs, but they're considerably tougher. These creatures tend to sleep in tight spaces, making it difficult to flank an Orange Bulborb without it noticing.

Whenever possible, use a Bomb Rock to blast an Orange Bulborb before it has a chance to attack. When that's not an option, draw an Orange Bulborb into the open, then flank the creature and attack it with a very large squad of Pikmin.
