The Giant Breadbug is a beloved boss enemy found only in Pikmin 2. He is shaped like a large, cube-like loaf of bread, and has a small snout with two beady turquoise-colored eyes with large black pupils, and little legs with two toes on each foot. The bread-like part of his body are various shades of
brown, and his snout and legs are a light yellow.
Like other Breadbugs, the Giant Breadbug is a passive enemy, who does not directly harm Pikmin. He will walk around his territory in search for
food items to sniff at, and then
drag back to his burrow. If he has lost any health and successfully drags an item to his burrow he will recover some health, and if any Pikmin happen to be holding an item dragged into the burrow, they will perish.
Though the Giant Breadbug is the easiest boss in the game, his
adorable looks and silly behaviors make it
hard to want to hurt the fellow. If you must hurt him though, it can be done by having a large amount of Pikmin
drag an item he's already holding back to the
Ship. When the
Ship absorbs the item, he will be brought up along with it, and he'
ll bonk his head and take some damage.
The Giant Breadbug is a humble, if gluttonous, boss iconic to the Pikmin franchise, and is deserving of the love and praise he receives.
