| effects = Allows a leader to clip inside a [[seesaw block]], after which they can go [[out of bounds]].

| prerequisites = Have an available [[cutscene]] that can be triggered, for example a treasure collection cutscene or a Pikmin hazard introduction cutscene.

| howto = Place a leader on a lowered seesaw block. Then throw some Pikmin onto the other block and trigger a cutscene while the blocks are still moving. After the cutscene is over, the leader that was standing on the block will be inside of it. You can also clip into the seesaw blocks in [[Perplexing Pool]] near [[Glutton's Kitchen]] without the use of a cutscene by [[lying down]] on top of the southern block of the pair, while against its southern edge, while it is raised.{{cite youtube|NYcSyL-DpP0|of a player clipping through the seesaw block by lying down on its edge|h=1|m=49|s=40}} This is the only known location where you can clip inside a seesaw block this way.

| notes = You must let the cutscene play out for about one second – if you skip the cutscene immediately, the clip won't work. This glitch can be used to get out of bounds in nearly every location where a seesaw block is present. When used in combination with a [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Napsack warp|Napsack warp]] you can reach unintended locations such as the Blue Onion area before breaking the electric gate blocking it.

===Napsack warp===

| prerequisites = Have the [[Upgrade#Napsack|Napsack]], and have a way to fall underneath the map such as by going [[out of bounds]] with a [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Seesaw block clip|seesaw block clip]].

| howto = Fall underneath the map and [[lie down]] while falling. If done correctly, this will warp you to the nearest carrying path waypoint.

| normal = When falling out of bounds, the intended behavior is that you will be warped to the default failsafe location, which is always near the ship. This will also happen if the leader touches the pit without lying down.

| notes = There's an invisible plane underneath every level that kills any enemies or Pikmin that fall into the [[pit]]. Due to the erratic nature of how a leader falls when lying down, it is possible that the leader will touch this plane instead of just the plane that relocates treasures. If this happens, the leader will become [[#Frozen leader glitch|frozen]]. This happens deterministically depending on the fall speed and exact position of your leader when the respective planes are touched, but given the precision involved it's generally regarded as impossible to avoid this happening with 100% consistency. Roughly 20% of the time this will occur when performing Napsack Warps regardless of location.

{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Harmful | p2 = Yes | npcp2 = Yes | youtube = SjkshAlRaH0 | vcaption = Falling with dweevils | other = [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvHglwyXWzw Falling without dweevils]

| howto = First, you must get a leader ready to fall into the [[pit]]. This can be achieved by going [[out of bounds]], like with a [[#Seesaw block clip|seesaw block clip]]. Then you must time a hold of {{button|gc|x|wii|c}} such that the leader is in the middle of the lying down animation when he touches the pit. This is a bit random as explained [[#Napsack warp|here]], but if you are successful, the leader will come back but without an antenna light, and the only action you can do is leave lying down mode. This will make him stand in place with his head held low, and stuck forever. If, before touching the pit, you swap to the other leader, then you will be unable to switch back, and the frozen leader will either vanish, or be able to be carried, but frozen after being delivered. A different thing can happen if the leader touches the pit whilst carried by a Dweevil. He can be teleported to the Research Pod and become invisible, except for his antenna's light. In this state, he can be returned to normal by performing any action while controlling him, or by whistling him with another leader. If a leader is on top of the Research Pod and the other leader performs other actions (like throwing Pikmin), the first leader will eventually appear on the ground somewhere, on the same semi-frozen state with no antenna light described above.
