Magenta Pikmin
Magenta Pikmin are found in Pikmin SP in the Silent Spring. Being the second and last pikmin found there, they are actually very useful. This pikmin will never lose its flower. When you sprout Magenta Pikmin, they will have a flower as soon as they are in the ground. These pikmin are located underground, via Plum Candypop Buds. They do not have an onion, and the first place you will ever meet them in is the Waterfall Domain, final cave of Silent Spring. They prove very useful in a later boss fight.

In Pikmin: Triad war the magenta Pikmin are immune to nature hazards and are the only pikmin that can complete nature puzzles. For each one that the player has in their group, the spicy spray effect is increased by...
- Leaf=2%
- Bud=4%
- Flower=5% + 25% chance to cause a spicy spray effect themselves during battle.
However, they are twice as weak as normal pikmin. They have long purple hair. Their flowers and buds are lime.
