Notes
Louie
“Remove the wings and drop straight into the deep fryer. Cook until golden or until the enticing aroma starts to sting your eyes. Serve immediately.”
Balo
"Can't do much besides flutter around aimlessly. No combat potential."
Olimar
"It's remarkably similar to its unmarked brethren, but the telltale wing patterns and lone pair of hind legs give it away. It sticks to its own habitat for the most part; though it may fly away to reach a flower or escape a bulblax, it will soon return to its home. The white variety gathers no nectar but sometimes may be found carrying a pellet.”

Notes
Louie
“For a blissful bisque, mince the entire beast finely and stir in with heavy cream, artichoke hearts, and a pinch of black pepper. Heat slowly until piping hot. Mmm... Rich and creamy!”
Balo
"Instantly dies if a Pikmin is thrown on it's back. Not much combat potential."
Olimar
"Although initially identified as a juvenile Bulborb, groundbreaking new research indicates that this creature is in fact a member of the Breadbug family. A close relative of Breadbug, it escapes predation through mimicry. Unique adaptation of the Bulborb's crimson coloration allows the species to safely commingle. Such effective adaptation and obfuscation by a prey species is rare, indicating this clever creature is a master of mimicry.”
