'''Mushroom Pikmin''' ({{j|キノコピクミン| | '''Mushroom Pikmin''' ({{j|キノコピクミン|Kinokopikumin}}, also known as '''Puffmin''') is the name given to [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] that are under the control of a [[Puffstool]]. After being showered with spores, infected Pikmin will make a small aggressive sound and will change in appearance and behavior. This Pikmin status only appears in the first ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' game – in ''[[Pikmin 4]]'', Pikmin are instead [[Hazard#Control|controlled]] when showered with Puffstool spores. | ||
The spores of the Puffstool cause affected Pikmin to morph into a strange form. Their eyes become pupil-less and dead-looking, their skin turns a dark shade of purple and an orange-brown mushroom cap grows on top of their stem. Their type's special physical characteristics, such as the noses, ears and gills are also gone; instead, they receive a small, triangular, slit-like frown. | The spores of the Puffstool cause affected Pikmin to morph into a strange form.

Mushroom Pikmin will not chase after normal Pikmin, however the unaffected ones will chase after Mushroom Pikmin. As this will kill each Mushroom Pikmin if not stopped, this confrontation will simply decrease Olimar's overall Pikmin population. If a Pikmin is called off of battling a Mushroom Pikmin before the final blow, it will convert it back to normal. If any Pikmin are in this state at sunset, they will die like any other Pikmin species. In the [[New Play Control! Pikmin|''New Play Control!'' version]] of the game, however, they will actually revert to their original form and become sprouts. | Mushroom Pikmin will not chase after normal Pikmin, however the unaffected ones will chase after Mushroom Pikmin.

Mushroom Pikmin will also retain their original types resistances, such as [[Blue Pikmin]] being immune to water while [[Red Pikmin]] and [[Yellow Pikmin]] will still drown. | |||
