It has been suggested that this page should be moved to Breakable pot.

Since this subject has no official name, the name "Breakable pot" is conjectural.

Jars are a type of obstacle present in Pikmin 4. They are cream-colored ceramic jars with a handle, a lid on top, and a few cracks near the base. Their main purpose is to block the way until Oatchi rushes against them, or a bomb rock blows up near them, which are the only methods of destroying them. When one is destroyed, generally the others next to it get destroyed automatically as well, though this can fail to happen if a cutscene plays in between.[1]

Some jars contain things inside of them, like the very first jars broken in the game's prologue, which contain Red Pikmin. Jars containing Pikmin will shake every once in a while. A few jars throughout the game have some plant coming out from the top, and when broken, a large flower will pop out that serves as a platform.

The first set of jars encountered in the game takes on the form of upside-down cracked pots.

Trivia

  • The obstacles are not named in-game, but an unused file in the game's files calls them CRACKPOT internally, and "jug" as a defined name. They are however not jugs because they are missing a spout for liquid to be poured out of.
