Pikmin

The most plentiful species on the planet, they are quite ferocious despite their appearance, using their massive jaws to swallow Pikmin whole. Frontal assaults result in disaster; attacks from behind are more successful. Attacking their legs is also effective.”

Oculus kageyamii russus
Grub-dog family
This large organism has the familiar mandibles and cranial morphology of the grub-dog family, as well as the characteristic bulging eyes. As with most grub-dogs, the creature's cranium comprises half of its total length and girth. Showing a scarlet abdomen with white spots, this creature is primarily nocturnal, choosing to prey upon smaller creatures returning to their nests. Originally classified as the spotty bulborb, further research has reclassified this species as the red bulborb. Subspecies of varied colors have recently been discovered, but academics are divided into two rival camps over how to handle their classification.”

Japanese name: Spotted Crimson Bug-eye
Grub-dog family
It is characterized by its large mouth, which spans half of its length, and its eyes protruding from its head. The abdomen is crimson with white spots. It is mainly active at night, especially in the evening, when it actively hunts for small animals that are returning to their nests. Several subspecies with different background colors have been discovered, and scholars are divided on how to treat them.”

Only a very confident designer would waive through issues like bright-red warning coloration and a tendency to sleep in broad daylight. There's no way a frontal assault on this thing will work, so we have to get creative. I'm thinking we should hit its back hard while it sleeps, or maybe target those thin-looking eyestalks.”

The fact that it sleeps in broad daylight, without hiding, with its red and white warning colors clearly visible, must mean that it occupies a high position in the ecological pyramid of this planet. Attacking it directly from the front is dangerous, so it might be better to charge at its back while it's sleeping or aim for its weak point, the eyeballs.”

赤と白の警戒色を目立たせて隠れることもなく真昼間から寝ているのは、きっとこの惑星の生態ピラミッドで上位にいるからなんだろうな。正面からまともに戦うのは危険なので、寝ているスキに背中から突撃するか弱点の目玉をねらうのがよさそうだ。”

Hey! Pikmin
- Creature Log - English
Family: Grub-dog
The S.S. Dolphin II said it sleeps during the day, but the one I met was awake. I pointed this out and the ship said, "I meant during the day on Hocotate."
After defeating it, we found an object rich in Sparklium. It's possible that the creature considers such objects a delicacy.”
- Creature Log - Japanese
Japanese name: Spotted Crimson Bug-Eye
Family: Grub-dog
It has a large mouth and protruding eyes. The Dolphin 2 told me they sleep during the day, but it was awake.
When I complained about it later, I was told that "it was daytime in Hocotate time"...... After it was defeated, we found an object with a high energy reaction inside its body. Perhaps the creature was lured by the Sparklium energy and swallowed it.”

On the surface, they are harmless as long as you do not approach them and they remain asleep. Even if they are awakened, they won't follow you very far. The same is true when they appear underground, but they will wake up if another creature comes in contact with them. While it is sleeping, you can kill it by going behind it and throwing a large number of Pikmin at it in rapid succession.”

“A colorful Bulborb with white spots on a red abdomen. Being nocturnal, it sleeps during the day, but it is ferocious and will swallow whole anything it sees. The creatures in the Grub-Dog family are at the top of the food pyramid.
○ What is the Grub-Dog family?
They were named Grub-Dogs because of the way they walk on two legs like space dogs.
Feature #1: Nocturnality
- It sleeps during the day and does not wake up unless its territory is entered, but it becomes active and searches for prey around sunset.
- (Image text:
- "(Day) Sleeping"
- "(Night) Eyes glow red")
Feature #2: How it recognizes other members of the same clade
- As it grows, the body color becomes darker, and it is recognized by the spots that appear on its abdomen.
- (Image text: "Larvae without spots are sometimes preyed upon")
Feature #3: Large eyes
- The eyeballs become large in order to catch faint light at night. Because of this, the eyelids cannot close completely, and it blinks by stretching and contracting the well-developed iris.”
“紅色の腹部に白い斑紋が色鮮やかな、デメマダラ。夜行性のため昼間は寝ているが、獰猛で目にしたものは何でも丸飲みにしてしまう。イヌムシ科に属する生物は、生態ピラミッドの上位に位置している。
○イヌムシ科とは？
宇宙犬のように二足歩行をする様子から、イヌムシと命名された。
特徴 その1 夜行性
- 昼間は眠っていて、縄張りに入らない限り起きることはないが、日が沈む頃に活発になって獲物を探し回る。
- (Image text:
- （昼）眠っている
- （夜）目が赤く光る)
特徴 その2 仲間の見分け方
- 成長するにつれて体色が濃くなっていき、腹部に浮き上がる斑紋で仲間と認識する。
- (Image text: 斑紋がない幼虫は餌食されてしまうこともある)
特徴 その3 大きな眼
- 夜間のかすかな明かりを捉えるために眼球が大きくなっている。その影響でまぶたを完全に閉じることはできず、発達した虹彩を伸縮させて瞬きする。”

Red Pikmin
- Main article: Red Pikmin.
Scientific name: Pikminidae rubrus
Red Pikmin have pointy noses and white flowers, and are present in all of the Pikmin games. They are resistant to fire and have a stronger attack strength than other types, making them good at combat dealing 1.5x damage more than other Pikmin types. They are the first type discovered in all Pikmin games (Although Yellow Pikmin are the first type seen in Pikmin 3, the Red Pikmin are the first to be properly discovered).
Yellow Pikmin
- Main article: Yellow Pikmin.
Scientific name: Pikminidae auribus
Yellow Pikmin have large ears and white flowers, and are present in all of the Pikmin games. They can be thrown higher than other types, but their other unique abilities vary by game. In Pikmin, they are the only type that can carry bomb-rocks. In Pikmin 2, Pikmin 3, Pikmin 4 and Hey! Pikmin, they are resistant to electricity alongside the ablity to conduct electricity in Pikmin 3 and Hey! Pikmin. In Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4, they can dig faster than most other Pikmin types. Additionally, in Pikmin 3, they are the first type to be seen, although they are only used for a short tutorial.
Blue Pikmin
- Main article: Blue Pikmin.
Scientific name: Pikminidae caerula
Blue Pikmin have mouthlike gills and white flowers, and are present in all of the Pikmin games. They are resistant to water, making them the only type able to access submerged portions of areas where other Pikmin would drown. They are the last type discovered in most games with a linear discovery order, the exceptions being Hey! Pikmin, Pikmin Bloom and Pikmin 4.
Purple Pikmin
- Main article: Purple Pikmin.
Scientific name: Pikminidae yokozunum
Purple Pikmin have short hairs, magenta flowers, and are bulkier than other Pikmin types. They are present in Pikmin 2, Pikmin 4 and 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 pound capable of stunning enemies. In all games except Pikmin 4, they do not have an Onion and must be gained by using Candypop Buds.
White Pikmin
- Main article: White Pikmin.
Scientific name: Pikminidae venalbius
White Pikmin have red eyes, magenta flowers, and small, thin bodies. They are present in Pikmin 2, Pikmin 4 and Pikmin Bloom, as well as the alternative game modes of Pikmin 3. They are resistant to poison, are faster than other Pikmin types, can poison enemies upon being eaten, and in Pikmin 2 can dig out treasures completely buried in the ground that other types cannot see. In all games except Pikmin 4, they do not have an Onion, and must be gained by using Candypop Buds.
Rock Pikmin
- Main article: Rock Pikmin.
Scientific name: Pikminidae habisaxum
Rock Pikmin are parasitic Pikmin inhabiting rocks and have lavender-purple flowers. They are present in Pikmin 3, Pikmin 4, Hey! Pikmin, and Pikmin Bloom. Their hardness allows them to destroy crystal obstacles, attack enemies through a powerful direct impact, and be resistant to being crushed or stabbed.
Winged Pikmin
- Main article: Winged Pikmin.
Scientific name: Pikminidae volarosa
Winged Pikmin are pink and have wings, large blue eyes, and lavender-purple flowers. They are present in Pikmin 3, Pikmin 4, Hey! Pikmin, and Pikmin Bloom. They can fly over water and low barriers, allowing them to take shortcuts when carrying, as well as making it harder for enemies to attack them, but their attack strength is normally lower than other Pikmin types.
Ice Pikmin
- Main article: Ice Pikmin.
Scientific name: Pikminidae habiglacius
Ice Pikmin are light blue with icy bodies similar to Rock Pikmin, albeit with a distinct head, and yellow flowers. They are only present in Pikmin 4. Ice Pikmin are immune to being frozen and can freeze enemies by filling up a meter around the enemy's health wheel by attacking or by being eaten. The bodies of frozen enemies shatter upon death, leaving droplets of nectar and raw material behind in a manner similar to how ultra-bitter spray functions. They can also be tossed into water to freeze it, freezing any enemies and treasure inside until the water unfreezes, and allowing leaders and other Pikmin to walk across its surface.
Bulbmin
- Main article: Bulbmin.
Scientific name: Parasiticus pikminicus
Bulbmin are a special species of Pikmin that resemble Bulborbs with a stem, white flowers, and are only present in a few caves in Pikmin 2. They are always found following a larger Bulbmin which must be defeated to be able to command them. They are resistant to fire, water, electricity, and poison, but cannot be taken out of caves, which are the only places they are found in. They are actually a parasite that takes over a juvenile Bulborb.
