In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', the player has the ability to '''swarm''' their group of Pikmin (also known as '''moving the group'''{{cite quote|'''C Stick''' / '''Move the group''' / Control all Pikmin with you.|Indicator blurb|the controls page of the ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' instruction manual}} | In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', the player has the ability to '''swarm''' their group of Pikmin (also known as '''moving the group'''{{cite quote|'''C Stick''' / '''Move the group''' / Control all Pikmin with you.|Indicator blurb|the controls page of the ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' instruction manual}}, '''marching'''{{cite quote|'''March''' / Normally, your Pikmin will follow you in a disorganized mob. To persuade them to walk in an orderly fashion, use the C stick. A bugle will sound when you give the marching orders, and you can guide your formation of Pikmin by pressing the C Stick in the direction you'd like your Pikmin to go. If you march your Pikmin into an enemy, gate or something they can work on, they'll automatically get to work on the task.|"Pikmanipulation" section|the {{p1}} Nintendo Player's Guide}}, or '''dispersing''', and unofficially known as '''C-Sticking''') around the current [[leader]]. This can be achieved by tilting {{button|gc|c}} in the GameCube games or by pointing at a location with the [[HUD#Cursor|cursor]] and holding {{button|wii|padd}} on the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' releases. The farther the stick is tilted or the farther the cursor is, the farther the group spreads in that direction. | ||
Only the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] can be moved around; if the other leader is in the current party, he remains in his place. When the Pikmin group is told to move, it becomes organized in a roughly circular shape, that becomes elliptical the more the group is moving; the distance to the tip of the group depending on the movement order's intensity. | Only the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] can be moved around; if the other leader is in the current party, he remains in his place.
