| “ | This subspecies of grub-dog has a thick coat of soft white fur that obscures its abdominal markings. The fur also warms its vital organs, making this species well adapted to colder climates. However, its hair follicles are surprisingly frail, which can result in immediate hair loss if the creature is surprised. | „ |

| “ | Remove all of the bulborb's hair, wrap the beast in foil along with a halved lemon, and place it directly on the grill. The foil should protect the carcass from scorching, and the lemon will give the meat an elegant hint of citrus. | „ |

| “ | As dangerous as any other giant Bulborb, the Hairy variety loses its fur as soon as you attack it. Try to sneak up on a Hairy Bulborb as it's sleeping, and launch a rear assault. If the creature charges, keep tossing Pikmin at it, and stay away from its chompers. | „ |

Hairy Bulborbs are enemies in Pikmin 2. They are similar to Red Bulborbs, but their backsides are white with blue spots and possess a lot of fluffy, white fur. They are similar to most other mature Bulborbs, but tend to live in colder environments. They have less health and are more aggressive than the Red Bulborb and Orange Bulborb, having a chance to instantly eat Pikmin when swarmed and can be easily defeated by repeatedly throwing Purple Pikmin onto its back. Once this creature's health has been lowered to half, its hair will fall off, revealing its blue spots, making it resemble its Breadbug mimic, though larger in size.
Name: Hairy Bulborb
Origin: Pikmin
Sex: Varies
Age: Unknown, seems to be roughly a couple of days old on average
Classification: Mammoth, Grub-dog species
Status: Active (Is one of the most prominent species on PNF-404, mostly in colder environments and caverns)
Alignment: Unaligned (The wildlife on PNF-404 don't follow moral ethics and simply survive like traditional animals in the wilderness)
Tier: 10-C, Higher with Penetration Damage
Cardinality: Finite
Dimensionality: 3-D
Attack Potency: Subhuman level (Can harm Olimar, and can easily eat Standard Pikmin. Can eat Purple Pikmin though they normally die to them rather easily. Comparable to the Red Bulborb, and are notably more aggressive, which can launch a tire rim several meters into the air), Higher with Penetration Damage (Their saber-like teeth are designed for crushing animal exoskeletons)
Durability: Subhuman level (Though they are weaker than the Red Bulborb variant, it still takes a solid number of Pikmin to defeat it, with a frontal assault being devastating to them)
Striking Strength: Subhuman Class, Higher with Penetration Damage
Lifting Strength: At least Subhuman (Comparable to the Red Bulborb which can kick a tire rim several meters into the air)
Travel Speed: Superhuman+ (Can keep up with Pikmin on foot who can easily outpace pellet shots from the Gatling Groink which can travel at 168 m/s on average)
Attack Speed: Supersonic (Can tag and eat Pikmin along with Olimar himself, and should be comparable to wildlife that use electricity-based attacks)
Reaction Speed: Supersonic (Comparable to the Pikmin themselves and can quickly awaken to fight them while being swarmed)
Stamina: Average
Range: Below Average Melee physically, Higher the larger they grow
Intelligence: Animalistic (Seems to lack enough understanding to the point where if the enemy runs away or hides and are out of the bulborb's sight, they will go back to sleep despite being attacked. Despite this, their more iconic cousin have shown basic thinking capabilities when faced by an unknown threat)
Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Small Size (Bug-Sized normally; The average Bulborb reaches roughly four-to-five centimeters in height when fully grown. Small Animal Sized when overgrown; Overgrown Bulborbs can see over tall patches of grass), Natural Weaponry and Penetration Damage (Physical Penetration; Has saber-like teeth which are used for cracking the exoskeletons of prey), Enhanced Senses (Bulborbs are nocturnal predators which hunt primarily at night. Even while asleep, they're capable of sensing light taps on their backside), Camouflage (Their white-haired backs allow them to blend in with the snowy habitats), Consumption (Physical Consumption; The Bulborb species can eat several Pikmin and eat inedible items), Regeneration (Low; Can heal overtime from swarm attacks).
Resistance to Extreme Colds (Their white hide keeps their internal organs warm in the cold climates and caverns, making them well adapted for the tundra environments), Time Stop and Magnetism Manipulation (All wildlife on PNF-404 are immune to the magnetic field which stops time in the underground dungeons), Sound Manipulation, Mind Manipulation, and Empathic Manipulation (The Antenna Beetle's whistle-like call technique, similar to the captain's whistle, has no effect on the Bulborb species. Olimar's whistle only temporarily stuns a bulborb)
Standard Tactics: The Hairy Bulborb is a nocturnal creature so it will be asleep during the day, though if awoken it will charge towards the enemy and attempt to eat them (They are notably more aggressive than the Red Bulborb variant).
Weaknesses: The Hairy Bulborb is a naturally nocturnal creature so it will be asleep during day time, making it very easy to sneak attack. Hitting it's eyes will cause it to shake in pain and enough damage will cause its hair to fall out.
