(Put Glow Pikmin after Bulbmin since Glow Pikmin are also a special type, and removed the Olimar section because Pikmin 4 complicates this)

Pikmin come in several [[#Types|types]], each with certain unique abilities (such as resistance to a specific [[hazard]]). Most are {{tt|1.2cm|0.47 inches}} tall head to toe (around {{tt|3cm|1.2 inches}} if the stem and top are included), and have a generally humanoid shape. On top of a Pikmin's head is either a leaf, bud, or flower, representing its [[maturity]].

On its own, a Pikmin is not particularly strong, but in large groups (usually [[Pikmin limit|up to 100]]), they are capable of doing many things. However, Pikmin can be eaten by [[Enemy|enemies]], and if a player loses all Pikmin of a type, a [[Pikmin extinction]] can occur. Fortunately, Pikmin can be grown easily by carrying defeated enemies or [[pellet]]s to the Onion. In addition, [[Candypop family|Candypop Buds]] can convert Pikmin from one type to another.

'''Purple Pikmin''' have short hairs, pink flowers, and are bulkier than other Pikmin types. They are present in ''Pikmin 2'', ''Pikmin 4'', ''Pikmin Bloom'', as well as the alternative game modes of ''Pikmin 3''. They weigh 10 times as much as other Pikmin types, are slower than other types, can [[carry]] 10 times the weight of other types, and can attack with a strong [[Combat#Purple Pikmin pound|pound]] capable of stunning enemies. They are native to [[cave]]s and do not have an [[Onion]], meaning that they can only be grown by throwing other Pikmin into [[Candypop family|Candypop Buds]].
