They are notorious for their effectiveness on the battleground, as when thrown, they will land with a resounding thump, stunning and seriously injuring larger beasts, and fatally injuring smaller, more fragile creatures, such as Shearwigs and Dwarf Bulborbs. Bosses are harder to stun, and require several direct hits to do so. In fights, Purple Pikmin are the strongest, though it can be argued that Reds are stronger as their attacks grow exponentially. | They are notorious for their effectiveness on the battleground, as when thrown, they will land with a resounding thump, stunning and seriously injuring larger beasts, and fatally injuring smaller, more fragile creatures, such as Shearwigs and Dwarf Bulborbs.

Despite their fame, Purple Pikmin have been heavily critisized for their slowness, and their tendency to become stuck in corners. This forces the player to backtrack and find them, and it can be even harder during sundown. They've also been critisized for their low arc when thrown: when a Pikmin is thrown, they fly up in an arc and land back down on either an creature or the ground. When Purples are thrown, their arcs are very low, and even worse so is that they stop halfway to preform a groundpound. Regardless, Purples are considered by many fans to be the perfect addition to the Pikmin family. | Despite their fame, Purple Pikmin have been heavily critisized for their slowness, and their tendency to become stuck in corners.
