'''Candypop Buds''' ({{j|ポンガシグサ|Pongashi Gusa|Puffed Grain Weed}}) are large flowers with fleshy petals and are found in all mainline [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]]. When [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are tossed into these gigantic blossoms, they spit out new Pikmin seeds which match the color of the flower's petals. These new Pikmin are born in the leaf [[Maturity|stage]]. The Candypop Buds expel the seeds after five Pikmin are thrown in, or a few seconds after the first throw; the exception being the [[Queen Candypop Bud]], which does so after the first Pikmin is thrown.

In {{p1}}, Candypops can transition up to 10 Pikmin in one load, and will wither after 50 Pikmin are thrown in. Both of these numbers were reduced to 5 in the [[Pikmin 2|second]] game, and in most cases in the [[Pikmin 3|third]] game: [[Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud]]s found in the [[Twilight River Remix]] can transform up to 10 Pikmin. In ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3'', using Pikmin of the same type as the flower does not count against this limit, although they will still be reverted to leaf Pikmin and planted in the ground. In ''Pikmin'', [[Yellow Pikmin]] holding bomb-rocks will not be taken in by Candypop Buds, merely sliding off the top; the same will happen to thrown [[leader]]s in ''Pikmin 3''. However, in ''Pikmin 3'', if a Pikmin holding a [[bomb rock]] is thrown in a Candypop Bud, it will spring its petals upwards before wilting away, killing the Pikmin with it without leaving a [[soul]] behind.

In ''Pikmin 2'', Candypop Buds are never found above ground and only appear in [[cave]]s, where they will respawn when the cave is reentered. In some caves, Violet Candypop Buds and Ivory Candypop Buds will only appear if the player has less than [[#Maximum Pikmin requirement|a certain number of Pikmin]]. To unlock a Candypop Bud's entry in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]] in ''Pikmin 2'', the player must throw at least one Pikmin inside and wait for a seed to be spat out.

In ''Pikmin 3'' and {{p4}} they have a different appearance, consisting of a large bucket-like cup in the middle of the flower, most likely as a "target" for leaders to aim Pikmin at. They also behave slightly differently, as they are always closed, opening only when a leader is nearby, and when they wither, their roots remain in place. Also, if two players throw Pikmin in a Candypop Bud at the same moment in [[Bingo Battle]], the Candypop Bud will spit out seeds for both teams, depending on the number of Pikmin that were thrown in by each of them.
