It is worth noting that the attacks of certain enemies (particularly the [[Groovy Long Legs]], [[Puffstool]], [[Ancient Sirehound]], [[Smoky Progg]], [[Sputtlefish]], [[Toady Bloyster]], and [[Vehemoth Phosbat]]) are often mistakenly referred to as poisonous due to their gas-like appearance, but these are in fact different hazards ([[ | It is worth noting that the attacks of certain enemies (particularly the [[Groovy Long Legs]], [[Puffstool]], [[Ancient Sirehound]], [[Smoky Progg]], [[Sputtlefish]], [[Toady Bloyster]], and [[Vehemoth Phosbat]]) are often mistakenly referred to as poisonous due to their gas-like appearance, but these are in fact different hazards ([[Confusion]], [[Gloom]], and [[Panic]]) which White Pikmin have no immunity against. | ||

One of the White Pikmin's most notable traits is their relation to poison. They can withstand poisonous gas without choking, making them ideal to destroy poison sources. In addition, the White Pikmin themselves are poisonous – if an [[enemy]] ingests one, they will instantly receive some [[health|damage]], and some particles will flow out of them, similar to the ones released from poison gas. | |||

There are other effects in the game which many have interpreted as poison, but are not. The [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] releases a cloud of purple dust, resembling poison gas from ''Pikmin 2''. The effects of this gas are similar, in that the dust makes the affected Pikmin start choking and run around in a frenzy, and can be removed with a blow of the whistle. Likewise, the [[Toady Bloyster]] and the [[Sputtlefish]] can emit clouds of ink which have identical effects. The key differences between these effects and poison are that they do not result in death, fade away after some time, and [[White Pikmin]] are just as susceptible to the effects if hacked or glitched into position. Therefore these effects are less like poison, and simply cause a [[panic]]. | There are other effects in the game which many have interpreted as poison, but are not.
