The Dwarf Lapis Bulborb is a breadbug appearing in Pikmin 2: New Year. It is the dwarf counterpart of the Lapis Bulborb and is a relative of the Dwarf Red Bulborb. They idly sniff the ground back and forth where they stand, often in groups and in the presence of one or more Lapis Bulborbs. When Pikmin or leaders come near a Dwarf Lapis Bulborb, it will perk up with a yip and attempt to get close enough to take a bite of them. However, if they exit its territory, it will return to a point near its original position and resume idle behavior.
They share many physical traits with other dwarf grub-dogs, strongly resembling the creature they are imitating the appearance of but on a much smaller scale. Dwarf Lapis Bulborbs have cream-colored skin and a blue backside bearing white spots. They have a tapered snout, and eyestalks supporting eyes that have white sclerae and blue pupils. Each of their four toes terminates in a single white claw.
Dwarf Lapis Bulborbs on their own are especially easy to defeat considering their low vitality and how throwing even a single Pikmin directly onto one's back will kill it instantly. However, because they are often found in groups, attacks against them must be ended quickly to avoid Pikmin casualties. If they are in the presence of a larger grub-dog, be sure to dispatch them first or they could become a considerable distraction when fighting the creature accompanying them.

Dwarf Blue Bulborbs are no different than Dwarf Red Bulborbs except their less aggressive and they are always found in or around water. They are also smart enough to lure unsuspecting Pikmin into the water and drown them, something no other breadbug or bulborb does. They give five seeds when brought to the Blue Onion but give three seeds otherwise.

Notes
In-game entry
- “The adaptability of the breadbug mimics knows no bounds, so it's only natural that the blue bulborb would have a dwarf variant. This breadbug mimic is often found in close proximity to each other and to their larger variants, yet none of them are found in aquatic habitats, indicating that they haven't evolved the semi-aquatic capabilities of the blue bulborb. This indicates that they've only evolved to mimic the younger forms beyond the mature species as younger blue bulborbs are incapable of breathing underwater.”

Notes
Olimar's notes
- “The Dwarf Blue Bulborb feeds a lot on food full of water. It has not yet grown its gills, as they appear only in the teenage years – they can resist up to 5 crushes by Pikmin, showcasing their strong skeleton.”
Louie's Notes
- “Make boudin noir out of this creature, you will for sure enjoy it!”

Notes
Olimar's notes
- “This strange breadbug can not completely mimic its target, as its vocal cords cannot produce a low enough sound to mimic its target's growls.”

In Pikspore, Dwarf Blue Bulborbs are identical to the other dwarf bulborbs in everything but color. In addition, they have slightly more health and seem to occasionally play with nearby Snow Bulborbs. They are also sometimes summoned by the Darkfreeze's second form.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “A breadbug that mimics the blue bulborb, this small creature doesn't seem too different from the other breadbug mimics. It lacks the trademark retractable sail that the blue bulborb has, instead, it huddles up with other dwarf blue bulborbs to keep itself warm in cold regions.”
