Yellow Pikmin are the second type of Pikmin collected in Pikmin and the fourth type in Pikmin 2. These Pikmin have what would appear to be large ears; these are the means by which they are primarily identifiable. It is not known, however, whether or not this actually aids their hearing. In both games the Yellow Pikmin are light and can be thrown higher than other Pikmin due to their lesser mass and perhaps in part to their ears. This is an ability which is needed to retrieve certain elevated ship parts and treasures. Additionally, Yellow Pikmin appear to like being in elevated places.
Yellow pikmin are immune to electricity and have distinct pointy ears. They have a carrying capacity of one. They are thrown high, with average strength and mobility.
