The Carnation Bulborb is a rather odd member of the grub-dog family. They are rarely encountered, only appearing four times in Story Mode and twice in Challenge Mode. They move around similarly to Bulborb Larvae, squirming along the ground to reach prey. However, like other bulborbs, the Carnation Bulborb can be found sleeping and is usually found doing so, only awakening once it is touched or injured.
Its skin is carnation pink on coloration, hence its name, and white spots are present on its rump. It has the shape of a typical bulborb, but is missing legs. Unlike most other grub-dogs, the eyes of the Carnation Bulborb are poorly developed, as its eyes are small and beady. It also lacks teeth, but it has no problem swallowing Pikmin whole or biting leaders.
The optimal way to defeat a Carnation Bulborb is by charging Pikmin towards its backside while it is sleeping. Pikmin can also be thrown at its backside, but charging is much more effective. Attacking one from head-on can be difficult since its eyes are so small and cannot have Pikmin thrown onto them to irritate the creature. However, it moves quite slowly while awake, so attacking it should be no problem no matter the circumstance.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- "The carnation bulborb stands out from its brethren in a few ways biologically. It has a charming and bright coloration, which makes it easy to see. Its skin is also surprisingly silky. Its eyes are small and underdeveloped, meaning it has poor eyesight. However, its eye size also prevents creatures such as Pikmin from targetting them specifically. The most striking feature, or lack thereof, of the carnation bulborb is its lack of legs. It must crawl along the ground to reach prey, where it will devour them whole with its big mouth. It is unfortunate that this species seems so rare, but maybe evolution may soon benefit this creature."
Shacho's notes
- "What eye-catching creatures! I'm sure people on Hocotate will pay quite a bit to have a pelt of their own. It's pretty and pink, who wouldn't want one?"
Marie's notes
- "Carnation bulborbs are totally adorable! They might seem all big, but they're softies and super lovable. I was so charmed by them when I first saw them. Carnation bulborbs make for low-maintenence pets, but they do love chomping things, even their owner's hands! Not hard, of course, but in the form of love nibbles. Just be ready to scold it if it can't help but get a little overzealous in returning affections."
Louie's notes
- "The meat of this creature is sweet and flavorful on its own, so simply cooking the meat by itself will yield a filling meal."
Dolphin Lander's notes
- "What a strange, cute, and unique bulborb! I just feel bad for them because of how they look, but they seem to be surviving well enough. Maybe we'll find other adorable creatures just like this one..."
