Purple Pikmin are the second type of Pikmin found in Pikmin 2 and and are first found in the Emergence Cave. They are specifically required to obtain a number of treasures, two of which are needed to gain access to new areas, making them absolutely necessary for the game's completion. Like the White Pikmin, they can only be obtained via certain Candypop Buds, in this case the Violet Candypop Buds, and have pink flowers rather than white. Neither they nor White Pikmin are found in Pikmin 1.
This Pikmin is the best for killing enemies, because they do a lot of damage when they are thrown on, but are the slowest of all Pikmin. They are big and stocky, they are also the only Pikmin with hair.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, they are characters following Olimar, and he could use them to attack. They would send the enemy flying rather than latch on.
