A blast pipe is an obstacle in Pikmin 251 that emits explosive gasses and is seen only once in the entire game, in the cave that is the Abandoned Toybox. The blast-resistant Orange Pikmin, propagated using the nearby Scarlet Candypop Buds, are required to disable the blast pipes and collect the treasure behind them. Any Pikmin, except Orange Pikmin, that touch a blast pipe's explosive emissions will fly back, and die upon hitting the ground in a manner identical to being in contact with ordinary explosions. Leaders that touch a blast pipe's emissions suffer no damage from doing so but will be thrown back and temporarily stunned. Blast pipes, upon being disabled and thus removing the perpetual explosion obscuring them, are seen to be visually identical to inactive or disabled gas pipes, an obstacle that emits poison gas.
