| effects = Makes a Pikmin vanish instantly by being crushed.
| howto = When an enemy is defeated and falls to the ground, there is a chance that a nearby Pikmin will mysteriously vanish without leaving a [[spirit]] or making a sound. There are several enemies that have this happen more frequently than others, and it also happens with more regularity when [[swarm]]ing enemies rather than [[throw]]ing Pikmin at them. It can also happen with [[pellet]]s.

| explanation = When falling down, enemies will push any nearby Pikmin downwards and to the side. If the collision is just right, there's a chance that the downward push is too strong and the Pikmin falls to the ground, where it instantly dies shortly after.

| effects = Makes a Purple Pikmin stuck to a Dwarf Bulborb teleport to the leader's hand, or be thrown while still stuck to the enemy.
| effects = Makes a Purple Pikmin stuck to a Dwarf Bulborb teleport to the leader's hand, or be thrown while still stuck to the enemy.
| howto = Simply throw a Purple Pikmin at a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]], [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]], [[Snow Bulborb]], or [[Dwarf Bulbear]] such that it crushes the enemy instantly. The Purple Pikmin will stay stuck to the enemy for a couple of seconds. During this time, whistle the Pikmin, get close to it, and hold {{button|gc|a|wii|a}} to grab it. The Pikmin will be grabbed, as evidenced by the sound, but will not be in the leader's hand. The Pikmin will teleport to the leader's hand when the enemy's [[spirit]] shows up. This means that the player can keep the enemy [[Camera#Off-camera|off-camera]], and only when the enemy is visible again will the Pikmin teleport to the leader. While the Pikmin is stuck, you can also release the button to throw it, but this will just make it spin in place on top of the enemy, and land right near it after a bit. This glitch also works if you switch to a different Pikmin in your group, and then use {{button|gc|padlr|wii|b}} to switch to a Purple Pikmin, while making sure that the stuck Purple is the closest one in the group.
