Bulborbs, also named Red Bulborbs, are common enemies in the the Pikmin series who inhabit the Distant Planet. Their appearance consists of the body: red ball with white dots, and yellow face with two eye stalks, and small weak legs. In Pikmin, they try to devour Olimar and his Pikmin if they get close, but can be defeated and killed, where their dead bodies can be used to produce new Pikmin in the Onion.

In the Super Smash Bros. series, Bulborbs first appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl in which they are the main hazard of the stage Distant Planet. One appears to the right of the stage, and it sometimes opens its mouth. During that time, all players that enter its mouth may be eaten and then dragged quickly offstage for a KO or self-destruct. Landing on its back is generally safe, but the Red Bulborb can leave the stage. Also on the background of the stage, another Red Bulborb appears alongside a Cloaking Burrow-nit and a flower. In the Final Destination form of Distant Planet of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, they are absent. In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, a Bulborb can be seen walking around in the background of the Garden of Hope stage, and it does not interact with the fighters.
