The Dromedary Bulborb is a species of grub-dog appearing in Pikmin Evolution. They get their names from the fact that they share various traits with the dromedary camel, including shaggy fur, a long neck, and of course their signature large hump, while retaining the familiar jawline and eye-stalks of a standard Bulborb. These grub-dogs live is deserts, herding around oases to drink the water they house and eat the plants they often grow. Unlike most Bulborbs it doesn't eat meat, only plants, meaning it won't specifically eat uprooted Pikmin. However if a Pikmin is found rooted into the ground due to being buried, the Dromedary Bulborb will use its strong jaw to pluck and eat any Pikmin within due to mistaking it for a root. The Dromedary Bulborb is otherwise quite docile for a grub dog, as it often ignores your captains and instead focuses on eating its favorite leaves and roots. The hump of the beast however has several unique properties that may be of interest to your captains. Due to all the water it drinks the Dromedary Bulborb's hump is filled with water as well, and any major blow can cause the Dromedary Bulborb to spray that water out forcefully. While this can be hazardous as the water can drown any Pikmin in line of the jet, the water also features several key uses that can be taken advantage of. First the water is highly pressurized, so you can use the water to forcefully push objects just as iron balls and stone blocks. Second the water is able to cool off lava, clean mud, and neutralize mold and make those surfaces safe to walk on. Be careful when applying force however as too much force can harm the Dromedary and make is hostile, where like the Mammoth Snootwhacker, it will not use its long neck to sweep the ground or crush anyone underneath its neck. So to prevent that you should encourage it with kindness such as feeding it a Pikpik Carrot or Bulborel. You should hit the hump with a lighter Pikmin, such as the near weightless Wisp Pikmin, as the Dromedary won't be damaged and it will calmly spray water for you. Feeding it a Bulborel in particular allows you to tame the Dromedary Bulborb, who can be used to speed up the growth of plants and fungi cultivating in your settlements as well as being great helps during raids as their powerful water jets work wonders against many fire and poison-based enemies. Notably since the Dromedary Bulborb is naturally docile it is one of the few creatures to never appear in a raid itself, only when it is forcefully ridden on by a acolyte does it try to attack your settlements, however when the acolyte is taken off it will immediately flee from the chaos. Dromedary Bulborbs are friends, not foes, and as such should be treated as such.
