*Destroying [[Armored Cannon Beetle]] boulders.
*Activating [[bomb-rock]]s in ''Pikmin 2''.
*Activating [[bomb-rock]]s in ''Pikmin 2''.
*Punching [[fire geyser]]s in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 3'' (although no damage is dealt).
*Damaging a [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] in ''Pikmin 3''.
*Attacking the shell of a [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]], [[Joustmite]] and [[Flighty Joustmite]].
*Damaging the following enemies in ways Pikmin cannot:
*Attacking a [[Calcified Crushblat]] (even with its calcification)
**The shell of a [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]], [[Joustmite]], or [[Flighty Joustmite]].
*Punching the shell of an [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]] in ''Pikmin 3'' (although no damage is dealt).
**A [[Calcified Crushblat]] with its calcification on.
*Punching a [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] in ''Pikmin 3''.
**The [[Armored Mawdad]]'s shell.
*Punching a Burrowing Snagret's body in ''Pikmin 3'' (although no damage is dealt).
 
*Punching and dealing damages to the [[Armored Mawdad]] even if its shell isn't destroyed.
The following things are also able to be punched, although doing so causes no damage:
*Punching the [[Quaggled Mireclops]]'s legs (although no damage is dealt). It's still possible to deal damages to its feet with punches, though. To note is that it's possible to punch the kind of carcass it leaves after being defeated thanks to the [[Pellet Posy|Pellet Posies]], which also causes problems if trying to punch the latter (because the leaders will punch the carcass instead of the Pellet Posies)
*[[Fire geyser]]s in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 3''.
*Punching the [[Bug-Eyed Crawmad]]'s armored skin (although no damage is dealt).
*An [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]]'s shell in ''Pikmin 3''.
*Punching the [[Shaggy Long Legs]]'s and [[Baldy Long Legs]]'s legs (although no damage is dealt).
*A [[Burrowing Snagret]]'s body in ''Pikmin 3''.
*Punching a [[Crystal#Crystal_nodule|crystal nodule]] (although no damage is dealt).
*The [[Quaggled Mireclops]]'s legs. It's still possible to deal damage to its feet with punches, though. To note is that it's possible to punch the kind of carcass it leaves after being defeated thanks to the [[Pellet Posy|Pellet Posies]], which also causes problems if trying to punch the latter (because the leaders will punch the carcass instead of the Pellet Posies)

*A [[Shaggy Long Legs]]'s or [[Baldy Long Legs]]'s legs.
*A [[crystal nodule]].


In ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 3'', as well as ''Pikmin 2'' before the [[Brute Knuckles]] are retrieved, only a single punch may be thrown at a time, and its damage is negligible. However, in ''Pikmin 2'', there are a few strategies and improvements that can increase the punching mechanic's usefulness, like the aforementioned Brute Knuckles.
