|}}'''Blue Pikmin''' are distinguishable from other [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] by their pink gills, resembling a mouth. Producing more can be done by returning objects to the [[Blue Onion]] or using [[Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud]]s.

Only they and [[Bulbmin]] are able to safely traverse watery areas; any other type will only flail around in panic before drowning. They are able to perform any action in [[water]] that they can on land. If they are idle and see a nearby fellow Pikmin drowning in water, they will quickly run to them, pick them up, and throw them to shore. However, be sure to know when to call the Pikmin, and when to let the blues go for them; often whistling to them will suffice, but if they fell off a ledge, then the blues will carry them to the other, more shallow shore, which might be too far away for the drowning Pikmin to "swim".

Blue Pikmin are the last type of Pikmin discovered in all the games. In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', their Onion is found in the [[Forest Navel]], and in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', 5 blues can be found near their Onion in [[Awakening Wood]] by the use of [[Yellow Pikmin]]. Yellow Pikmin are required to break down the electric fence: throw them up onto the ledge, then run around, through the water, to whistle them. There is a [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]] buried there that must be defeated. In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', Blue Pikmin are discovered in a new area of the [[Garden of Hope]], after [[Louie]] steals all the player's juice and escapes from the [[S.S. Drake]]. The onion is initially buried, and [[Winged Pikmin]] are needed to pull it out of the ground. Blue Pikmin seem to be well-balanced in strength, mobility, and throw. They are often considered the most useful Pikmin, especially in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', because they can go in water, which takes up a large amount of the terrain.

Blue Pikmin are statistically more likely to be eaten by an enemy than any other type. This remains unexplained, and is in fact never even mentioned within the game.

Blue Pikmin appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as kinds of Pikmin that Olimar can pull from the ground via Pikmin Pluck, his standard special move. They are the only Pikmin that don't drown in the water, are more durable than other types of Pikmin (besides Purple Pikmin), and withstand water moves like Mario's F.L.U.D.D., or Squirtle's water gun. Olimar is most likely to pull up a Blue Pikmin if he is on a water-based surface, such as a cloud or ice.

==Brawl Trophy Description==
"A type of Pikmin, which are curious creatures that follow and obey the person who picks them. If you take advantage of this trait, you can get them to help Capt. Olimar and Louie. The blue Pikmin are at home in water and cannot drown. Need to retrieve an object underwater or cross a water hazard to disarm a trap? Blue Pikmin are just the allies you need."
