'''Winged Pikmin''' ({{j|羽ピクミン|Hane Pikumin}}) are a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin type]] that first appeared in {{p3}}, with the special ability of flight. They are pink with large blue eyes, their bodies are striped in darker pink, and they have lavender buds and flowers like [[Rock Pikmin]]. Their name comes from the transparent wings on their backs, which allows them to be airborne most of the time. This is particularly useful in combat and while [[carrying]]. Like other main Pikmin types, they are produced in an [[Onion]], and appear in all of the game's modes.

*Using a [[Glitches in Pikmin 3#Early Winged Pikmin|sequence break]], it's possible to unlock Winged Pikmin without building a certain bridge. If, however, Winged Pikmin are told to construct this bridge, they will not take a path in the air, but instead will take the same path as the other Pikmin types, and so they will walk instead of flying{{cite youtube|yaxX_D51-gM|showing Winged Pikmin walking instead of flying in the Twilight River.}}.
