The Orange Bulborb has a general Bulborb appearance, but has black skin, yellow bloodshot eyes, and its backside is orange with black spots, the total effect making it look somewhat like a ladybug. It has the same strategy that all Bulborbs use for attacking, however, this is a unique Bulborb subspecies in that it wakes up if its prey is within close range, making it difficult to defeat with the traditional Bulborb-defeating tactics. Usually, when there is one of these around, it is almost sure that there may be many Dwarf Orange Bulborbs around.

Notes

Olimar's notes

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

Louie's notes

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

Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs

Orange Bulborb
Scientific name	Oculus Kageyamii Orangium
Family	Grub-dog
Areas	Land of Wonders, in the Toxin Territory
Caves	Dangerous Depths, in the Toxin Chamber
Carry weight	20
Max. carriers	40
Seed worth	15
Attacks	Eats Pikmin

Orange Bulborbs make a reappearance in Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs. They can be found in both the Toxin Territory and Toxin Chamber, like Dwarf Orange Bulborbs can be found. A single Orange Bulborb is located in the Toxin Chamber, along with thirty Dwarf Orange Bulborbs. The Orange Bulborb in the Toxin Chamber drops the Toxin Legend Shard upon defeat. Orange Bulborbs may consume seven Pikmin at once, and they move slightly faster than a normal Bulborb. Because of their edgy nature, Orange Bulborbs will awaken and give chase even when Captain Olimar or his Pikmin are a fair distance away from them. Orange Bulborbs also have the ability to yelp when its eyes are attacked. This attack causes Pikmin to scatter and flee, posing more of a threat to the survival of them. Captain Olimar cannot assist in carrying the corpse of an Orange Bulborb due to its large size.

Pikmin: The Huge Debt

Olimar's notes

"This beast has large yellow eyes to see a great distance at night. But it also sleeps with its eyes cracked, almost like it knows that it can't be killed by Pikmin if it cracks its eyes."

Louie's notes

"For an unforgettable hot dog, grind the meat into rolls and boil. Then take a hot dog bun and slap it in there. Mustard and ketchup is optional."

President's notes

"These beasts seem to leave their eyes cracked when sleeping, which makes them perfect for guarding against treasure thieves."

Libra's notes

"This beast's skin is perfect for a polka-dotted hoodie, or orange and black boots.

Sagittarius's notes

"This beast has such cool colors. I would keep it as a pet any day!"

Violet's notes

Tike's notes

"According to Olimar these guys have yellow eyes that help them see and sleep at the same time. It's odd but it's true. However, according to my speculations, they actually are born with a thing called the hitchhiker's thumb granting them great movement. It located on back on its leg. In fact, they can be great jumpers, but the legs aren't as strong like a ninja bulborb to endure the landing."

Alice's notes

"These guys eyes should be bloodshot for how long they go without sleeping. However, this makes them vicious hunters and if you're a zookeeper, keep this guy locked up good. They tend to be very protective of their young, as I notice the babies can simply cry for help, and they'll be on you like a hawk."

Captain Pikmin's notes

"Since the babies can cry to awake the mother, the dwarfs have adapted this technique, so be sure to kill them first. Also make sure to get your greens, since this is usually no easy fight."

Pikmin: Theme Park

Although these enemies are absent, their dwarph variants do appear.

Pikmin: Dimensional Breach

Template:PikminDB These enemies appear in Twilight Wilds, and sublevels 3 and 6 of the Memory Lair.

Charlie’s notes

"A very excitable creature, this beast should ideally be tackled by attacking the eyes. The Purple Pikmin’s stun ability works wonders when facing these things."

Derrick’s notes

"Within the skull of the creature lie two special organs, similar to what we Koppaites would call eardrums. Scoop out one of them with a spoon and marinate it in the yolks of common Eggs. After a week of marinating, the marinated “eardrum” should be dried in the sun to bring out its sweetness, and then it may be roasted and eaten to enhance your own hearing."

Pikmin Continues

These enemies appear in Pleasant Plains.

Pikmin V

This article or section presents information pertaining to Pikmin V, a fanon game created by En Passant.

Orange Bulborb
Scientific name	Oculus orangium
Family	Grub-dog
Areas	Silent Woods, Sodden Swamp, Mad Jungle
Carry weight	10
Max. carriers	20
Seed worth	12
Health	440

The Orange Bulborb is the mid-tier Bulborb in Pikmin V, with the Hairy Bulborb now superseding it. Like the others, hitting its eyes to make it flinch and spit out Pikmin will only work once.

Brittany's notes

This species has evolved acute senses that allow it to detect predators before it's too late to defend itself while it sleeps. There is a theory that this change, along with the more conspicuous color scheme, is the result of their new predation by Pikmin.

Olimar's notes

Its increased senses will awaken it too early for the usual Bulborb techniques. However, it is still wise to concentrate on its backside, so keep circling to it.

Louie's notes

The increased activity from its paranoid awakenings increases the beef in its hide, making for a richer, if fattier, alternative to regular Bulborb meat.
