|howto = There is no concise way to reproduce this glitch, but so far, it was only reported to work on the [[Quaggled Mireclops]] and [[Plasm Wraith]] mission in co-op mode. Just playing through the mission as normal will be enough for the counter to eventually glitch. Although rarer, it can happen without the Quaggled Mireclops's intervention, and in single-player.{{cite web|https://web.archive.org/web/20171018025429/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADRUqF7BiZgcQ|Miiverse post showing the effects of the counter glitch in single player|Wayback Machine}} | |howto = There is no concise way to reproduce this glitch, but so far, it was only reported to work on the [[Quaggled Mireclops]] and [[Plasm Wraith]] mission in co-op mode.

|howto = Stand next to somewhere where a Pikmin will get crushed and grab it as soon as it gets crushed. Make sure the [[leader]] is out of the way, as the Pikmin will die if the leader is damaged, since they will not be able to pick the Pikmin up. If all is done correctly, you should hear the Pikmin squeal even though it is still in your hands.

This glitch can also occur by [[whistling]] a panicking Pikmin the frame before it enters an animation which leads to its death. | ||
|notes = While these Pikmin can break underwater walls, they can't do so for [[Gate#Electric gate|electric gate]]s: when thrown at this kind of gate, they will hit it, then stop, then hit it again and then they will then rejoin your party. Oddly enough, when the player throws them on again, they won't do the same. | |notes = While these Pikmin can break underwater walls, they can't do so for [[Gate#Electric gate|electric gate]]s: when thrown at this kind of gate, they will hit it, then stop, then hit it again and then they will then rejoin your party.

|explanation = When a Pikmin is crushed, some flags are set to make it invincible. This avoids having the Pikmin get hurt by hazards or other enemies while it's performing its crushing death animation. During this state, Pikmin are also no longer in the group, and so, can't be picked up. But if the player grabs the Pikmin at the same time it gets crushed, it will activate the invincibility flags, but skip the crushing, since the Pikmin is in a state where it cannot be harmed (i.e. grabbed by a leader). | |explanation = When a Pikmin is crushed, some flags are set to make it invincible.

|howto = Throw five [[Winged Pikmin]] to the [[Flukeweed]] atop the Onion. As the Pikmin are pulling it, decide where it is that you want to make your leader slide to. The depression in the water to the south of the Onion's pond is a good place to aim for, as the leader will slide further because of the downwards slope. It is best to aim the camera that way. As the Onion is being pulled out, place your leader next to the Onion, on the side of the place you want to go towards. Make sure your leader is bumping against the Onion. When it gets pulled out, move your character towards the Onion's center while it is airborne. When it falls down, it'll bump against the leader, which will be sent sliding in the opposite direction.

If using the [[Winged Onion]], having the leader under where the Onion falls in the cutscene will cause them to slide once the [[Arachnode]] is killed. | ||
|notes = The closer to the center of the Onion the leader is, the less distance they will travel, so it is recommended not to walk too far into the Onion's landing position. | |notes = The closer to the center of the Onion the leader is, the less distance they will travel, so it is recommended not to walk too far into the Onion's landing position. | ||
|explanation = When the Onion lands, it pushes the leader. Because the landing triggers the cutscene, and because during the cutscene the game expects the leaders to be standing still, their friction must use a value different from the norm, which allows them to slide. | |explanation = When the Onion lands, it pushes the leader.
