'''Lock-on''' is a combat and exploration mechanic added in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. This feature makes the [[camera]] lock on to and focus on a certain [[enemy]], [[obstacle]] or other object. This allows players to not lose its sight, making attacking easier, as well as obtaining its name and allowing the Pikmin army to charge. | '''Lock-on''' is a combat and exploration mechanic added in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''.

To lock-on, the player must move the [[HUD#Cursor|cursor]] to an object. At that point, the cursor will change, and the player must then hold {{button|wiiu|ZL|wii|Z|wiiu|PCZL}} for roughly one second so that the scan's lock takes place. Unlike other Nintendo games that have lock-on functionality (e.g. ''[[metroidwiki:Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]''), the player does not need to hold the button in order to keep it | To lock-on, the player must move the [[HUD#Cursor|cursor]] to an object.

Unlike other Nintendo games that have lock-on functionality (e.g. ''[[metroidwiki:Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]''), the player does not need to hold the button in order to keep it. Briefly tapping the same button again cancels the lock-on. Moving far enough away from the target will also cancel the lock-on automatically. | ||
Once locked-on, the [[camera]] zooms in and focuses on the object, and rotates to follow it around. The manual camera controls will also not work. [[Dodge|Dodging]] will make the leader and Pikmin roll around the object, as opposed to rolling in a straight line left or right. With the GamePad or Wii U Pro Controller, holding the lock-on button will place the cursor on top of the target that started the lock-on. | Once locked-on, the [[camera]] zooms in and focuses on the object, and rotates to follow it around.
