Error handler

Error, text data could not be loaded.

• PikSpore has its own error handler for undefined text entries. This message is also used by Pikmin: Shadows of the Future.

Olimar's Notes

Brown Bulborb

This nocturnal animal typically makes its nest near water. During the dry season, it bathes in mud to cool itself down.

• An alternate entry for the Brown Bulborb, explaining why the beast is so dirty.

Green Bulborb

A smaller subspecies of Grub-dog, the green bulborb is diurnal and will hunt for food even in the daytime, a behavior pattern once thought to be exclusive to the bulbears. Dwarf green bulborbs, though unrelated will follow this creature as a parental figure.

• Green Bulborbs do not normally appear in the game but are fully coded. Dwarf Green Bulborbs, however, are not programmed into the game at all.

Purple Bulborb

This female grub-dog has the uncanny ability to summon bulborb larvae out of the ground to menace prey. They are heavy sleepers and will remain asleep even if attacked.

• The powerful miniboss from PSI does not appear at all in PikSpore but can be placed via hacking. She is fully coded.

Red Bulbear

This rare, fearsome predator hunts for food at all times, only stopping briefly to sleep or breed. Its gaping maw is lined with rows of backwards-facing teeth, which ensure prey does not escape when caught.

• This enemy does not appear in any games so far but is fully coded and very dangerous, too. Much faster than a normal Bulbear, it can catch up with stragglers and eat up to ten Pikmin at a time. Its data also exists in PSotF.

Dwarf Red Bulbear

Follows Red Bulbears

• This text seems to be a placeholder for what the developers would make the enemy do. Dwarf Red Bulbears are unused but fully coded and do exactly what they are described to do.

White Bulborb

Poisonous Bulborb, explodes when carried Another placeholder, this time it describes what the White Bulborb from PSotF does. While the White Bulborb's data exists in this game, it is unfinished. It lacks the poisonous abilities and does not explode when carried.

there is also an unused and unfinished sprite sheet of a white bulborb in Pikmin 3, the dweevils revenge File:Unused bulborb.PNG
