The Moldy Dwarf Bulborb is an enemy in Pikmin 4. It is a Dwarf Red Bulborb infected with a parasitic fungal host. Throwing Pikmin on its back poisons them, so use White Pikmin (or Glow Pikmin), or swarm it. If Oatchi has the Sniff Saver, you can use rush to charge at it.
Strategy[]
Being a poisonous enemy, throwing White or Glow Pikmin on it’s back will defeat it easily. Charging with Oatchi will kill it instantly. If you charge Pikmin at it, no matter what type it is, damage will be dealt unless the bulborb shakes, releasing fumes.

Dalmo's Notes[]
"Picture this scenario: like this poor darling, you're conscious but no longer in control of your own body. Someone or something else has taken you over. A horrifying concept, isn't it? But what if the thing controlling you couldn't live if it didn't do that? Sometimes it's simply a matter of survival."
Olimar's Notes[]
"This is an example of a young Bulborb body that's been infected by fungal filaments. Now a host, it unconsciously continues to seek out and ingest food, all the while scattering large amounts of spores out of the spore sacs on its back until it can no longer move. After all host-body activity ceases, the specimen mutates into a fungal culture that will eventually become a juvenile Toxstool."
Louie's Notes[]
"Tastes best if eaten just before the meat spoils. Once all the mold has been removed, enjoy a unique flavor reminiscent of dry-aged meat."
Trivia[]
- Despite being a Dwarf Bulborb, it is not part of the Breadbug family; instead, it is part of the Sporovid family.
- It's the only known Grub-dog to not have an adult counterpart.
