The Golden Candypop Bud is a yellow-petaled candypop bud that behaves just like any other candypop bud but changes Pikmin thrown into them into Yellow Pikmin. Yellow Pikmin that are thrown in are reverted to the leaf stage and don't count against the five-Pikmin limit per candypop bud.

In Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs, Golden Candypop Buds can be found distributed throughout the Spark Territory alone or in groups of up to four. Each of them can convert up to ten Pikmin into Yellow Pikmin if they are not already that color. After changing ten non-Yellow Pikmin, the Golden Candypop Bud will wilt and disappear. They regenerate every five days.

Notes

Olimar's notes

In the other types of Pikmin go, out seeding Yellow Pikmin come. Golden Candypop Buds are truly worth just as much as their name implies. Within the petals of a Golden Candypop Bud are juices five times more basic than water, meaning they are incredibly corrosive and highly dangerous. Strange, you'd think the Emerald Candypop Bud would be the corrosive one.

Louie's notes

The juices of this plant are secreted when heated, meaning your frying pan will be reduced to bubbling liquid metals if you so much as even try to cook this dangerous plant.
