[[image:All.jpg|thumb|300px|The three Pikmin colors present in the first game.]]<math>For Fanon Pikmin, see [[List:Pikmin]]</math>.'''Pikmin''' are a plant-animal life-form first encountered by [[Captain Olimar]] when his ship crash-landed on an [[Planet of the Pikmin|uncharted planet]] in [[Pikmin (Game)|Pikmin 1]]. The Pikmin are loyal to Olimar whenever he visits, and he may have taught them some degree of survival, considering they weren't extinct in [[Pikmin 2]]. Pikmin come in many colors, each indicating a unique set of attributes that better suit them to different environments. They are 1 inch tall from foot-to-tip and are able to [[carrying Order|carry]] (at least) ten times their own weight, as evidenced by the ability of [[Blue Pikmin]] to lift and toss heavy [[Purple Pikmin]].
The '''Pikmin family''' consists of often humanoid, friendly creatures.


Captain Olimar was noted in Pikmin 1 to wonder, a bit uneasily, why the Pikmin don't attack him, and speculated that they might see him as a "parental figure". An idea commonly held by fans is that Olimar's helmet antenna resembles a Pikmin stem, and that the Pikmin see him as one of their own or as some kind of "super Pikmin". Although wild Pikmin have never been observed to follow a leader, this explanation seems to be the most probable, and is further evidenced by the fact that Pikmin will imitate Olimar while idle, such as by blowing imaginary whistles.

[[Image:Pikmin skeleton.jpg|thumb|90px|The skeletal structure of a Pikmin seen during its electrocution.]]
===Alien Pikmin===
Although each species has different characteristics, all Pikmin have the same general appearance, with a: humanoid body shape; large, bulb-shaped heads; two round eyes; two arms and two legs, each with three digits; a tall stem on which a single, five-petaled flower grows. Their limbs also serve as roots when buried in the ground. In fact, Olimar refers to their entire bodies, save the stems, as ambulatory root systems.
{{main|Alien Pikmin}}
The Alien Pikmin is an extraterrestrial Pikmin.  


The internal structures of Pikmin are a mystery, but certain things about them can be speculated. Since Pikmin never seem to eat anything, save [[nectar]], they probably have a very simple digestive system, if any. As such, it's likely that Pikmin get a majority of their nutrients from food the [[Onion]]s break down. Since the Onions are the center of Pikmin reproduction as well, it seems likely that Pikmin are incapable of sexual reproduction. However, in Pikmin 1, flowering Pikmin will sometimes drop seeds when slain in battle, suggesting that they may be able to reproduce asexually, but also that they do not have defined sexes and are hermaphrodites like many plants. Pikmin also have a skeletal system, as seen when [[hazards#electricity|electrocuted]]. Pikmin probably don't have any sort of lungs, but their leaves,buds, and flowers appear to serve as their main means of respiration, since poison gas or water droplets collecting around them suffocates the Pikmin. When killed, Pikmin release a liquid of the same color as the Pikmin, possibly the Pikmin equivalent to hemolymph or blood.
===Alloy Pikmin===
{{main|Alloy Pikmin}}
The Alloy Pikmin is made of a particularly heavy metal.  


While idle, Pikmin's leaves and flowers glow that Pikmin's respective color; that, coupled with a cinema scene at the end of Pikmin 2 would suggest that Pikmin are somehow bio-luminescent, though what causes this and what function it might serve in the wild has never been explained.
===Alpha Bulbearmin===
{{main|Alpha Bulbearmin}}
The Alpha Bulbearmin is a mighty grub-dog infected by a parasitic Pikmin.  


=== Stages ===
===Amber Pikmin===
{|class="wikitable"
{{main|Amber Pikmin}}

Pikmin can be divided into three stages: In the first of these, the Pikmin will have a leaf on their stem. Leaf Pikmin are the slowest and weakest. Although all three stages inflict the exact same amount of damage to enemies, leaf Pikmin take longer to build bridges and take down gates.


[[Image:Pikmin nectar.jpg|thumb|200px|A Blue, Yellow, and Red Pikmin drinking nectar.]]
===Amethyst Pikmin===
The second stage Pikmin have buds on their stems. In factors of speed and power, these are just between leaf and flower Pikmin. In Pikmin 1, if a flower Pikmin is shaken off, it will revert to a bud, and the bud will revert to a leaf in the same scenario. In Pikmin 2, however, flower Pikmin revert to leaf Pikmin immediately. Like flower Pikmin, buds can be received when leaf Pikmin are allowed to stay in the ground for a certain amount of time.
{{main|Amethyst Pikmin}}
The Amethyst Pikmin is made out of amethyst or may utilize it.


The final stage Pikmin are flower Pikmin. These can be gained by letting Pikmin drink [[nectar]], by letting them mature in the ground, or by letting a [[Mamuta]] plant Pikmin. In Pikmin 1, flower Pikmin which have fallen in battle will occasionally leave behind seeds which will sprout the next day, but this was discontinued in Pikmin 2.
===Aqua Pikmin===
{{main|Aqua Pikmin}}
The Aqua Pikmin has avian features, and may be difficult to shake off.


In Pikmin 1, if flower Pikmin are left in the ground for the entirety of the flower stage, the stalks will retreat into the ground for another cycle and then sprout again as leaf Pikmin. In Pikmin 2, this last stage is bypassed, and Pikmin will go straight from flowers to leaves when left in the ground for too long.

{{main|White Pikmin}}
'''White Pikmin''' are smaller than normal Pikmin and have red eyes. These Pikmin are resistant to poison. They seem to have poison in themselves, as enemies take damage when they ingest White Pikmin. Their red eyes seem to make it possible for them to detect things buried underground. These Pikmin are also the fastest, and carry objects much quicker than other Pikmin. Unlike the original red, yellow and blue Pikmin, white Pikmin have pink flowers.
The White Pikmin has a white coloration, is poisonous when consumed, can see objects underground and is immune to poison.

The Wollymin is an amphituber infected by a parasitic Pikmin.
'''Bulbmin''' are a combination of a parasitic Pikmin and a juvenile [[Bulborb]]. They are immune to all hazards thanks to the Bulborb's anatomy. Although they can carry objects and flower as normal Pikmin do, they are weak in battle and unable to leave the caves in which they are found.

===Mushroom Pikmin===
===Wonky Pikmin===
[[Image:Thumb_zombiepikmin.jpg|200px|thumb|A [[Mushroom Pikmin]].]]
{{main|Spider Pikmin}}
{{main|Mushroom Pikmin}}
The Wonky Pikmin is a particularly odd Pikmin.
Mushroom Pikmin are not a separate species, but rather the result of allowing Pikmin to be exposed to the spore cloud attack from a [[Puffstool]]. Pikmin affected by the cloud turn purple, grow mushrooms on their heads and turn against Olimar and other unaffected Pikmin. Mushroom Pikmin can be cured by shaking them off Olimar, by attacking one with an unaffected Pikmin, by defeating the Puffstool, or simply waiting for the effect to wear off. Both Mushroom Pikmin and the Puffstool are found only in Pikmin 1.


Mushroom Pikmin can sometimes turn against the Puffstool due to a certain [[Puffstool glitch|glitch]], and can sometimes even be controlled by Olimar, depending on exactly how the glitch is carried out.

If the player gathers every ship part in the first Pikmin game, they will see several different colors of Onions. These include purple, brown, orange, black, pink, green and cyan. Although Purple Pikmin were discovered in Pikmin 2, they were introduced without an Onion. Therefore, it is unknown whether the rest of these colors will appear in future games, or if the multi-colored Onions are just an Easter egg.

==Extinction==
[[Pikmin Extinction]] occurs when every single Pikmin, including those planted in the ground and stored in the Onions, is lost. The day ends immediately and the Onions each produce a single seed at the beginning of the following day.  


In Pikmin 1, the following is Olimar's Journal entry on the first day extinction occurs: 
===Wraith Pikmin===
''The Pikmin have all perished because of my own carelessness. I am an utter disgrace as a leader... How can I continue to collect parts without them? Still the Onions join me in low orbit, as if this Pikmin extinction had never happened. I shan't sleep tonight...''
{{main|Wraith Pikmin}}
The Wraith Pikmin has a body comprised of a translucent, watery substance.


Many fans regard Extinction as being "childish", "careless" and even "cruel" due to the fact that after extinction, the player must regrow all of their armies from scratch.
===Xmin===
{{main|Xmin}}
The Xmin is a powerful Pikmin with many resistances.


==Habits==
===Yellow Bulbmin===
[[image:IdlePikmin.jpg|thumb|90px|An idle Pikmin.]]
{{main|Yellow Bulbmin}}
Pikmin following [[leader]]s are prone to stumbling every now and then, and occasionally fall over completely, in both [[Pikmin games]]. This happens much more frequently in [[Pikmin 1]], and, further complicated by a  mass of 100 Pikmin walking together, can sometimes pose a serious problem, reducing general maneuverability. In [[Pikmin 2]], Pikmin trip much less frequently, but still stumble often if directed to switch positions suddenly. During a retreat from a [[Piklopedia|beast]], a Pikmin that trips is likely to be eaten or squashed by the creature; this is especially aggravating during no death runs. Sometimes, it may be hard to notice if a Pikmin trips, leading to lone Pikmin becoming separated from the group.
The Yellow Bulbmin is a Yellow Bulborb infected by a parasitic Pikmin.


Pikmin can be seen interact with each other when idle. These actions include grooming each other, communicating in high pitched whimpers, waving, and playing abstract games. In Pikmin 2, if 20 of each color Pikmin is called into one group, they will hum a portion of the song [[Ai no Uta]], which at one point topped the sales of the game it was created solely to advertise: Pikmin. This suggests that they have a highly developed and friendly social structure. Pikmin will also watch captains move around when stationary, indicating that they are very curious creatures, and can be seen to mimic the idle motions of those leaders. All idle Pikmin have a natural tendency to perform nearby tasks, such as, for Blue Pikmin, running into water to save drowning Pikmin, even if it is infested with enemies.
===Yellow Pikmin===
{{main|Yellow Pikmin}}
The Yellow Pikmin has a yellow coloration, can be thrown to higher places, is immune to electricity and can conduct it.


===Melee Trophy===
===Yellow-Green Pikmin===
These strange beings are part plant, part animal. They spend most of their time buried in the earth, but they will befriend whoever plucks them, as evidenced by their devotion to Captain Olimar. Each Pikmin has a leaf on its head that grows into a bud and finally a flower. Like a flower, the life of a Pikmin is both fragile and beautiful.
{{main|Yellow-Green Pikmin}}
The Yellow-Green Pikmin has a yellow-green, sickly coloration.
