To counter an extinction, the affected Onion(s) spit out a single seed of the same type, with the exact rules for this depending on the game and the type of extinction. Alternatively, if possible, the player can also choose to start the next day on an area that has some sprouts of lost types and use those. Regardless, the player must then regrow the corresponding armies from scratch, and if they do not treat these lone Pikmin with care, they will be easy prey to all manner of enemies, which can quickly end in another extinction. | To counter an extinction, the affected Onion(s) spit out a single seed of the same type, with the exact rules for this depending on the game and the type of extinction.

In {{p1}} and {{p2}}, losing all Pikmin of a given type makes it very hard, but possible, to create more in the same day. If there are still other Pikmin when this occurs, the day will go on, but if not, a [[#Total extinction|total extinction]] is declared instead. In order to create more Pikmin in the same day, the player can use [[Candypop Bud]]s or the ability of [[White Pikmin|White]] and [[Purple Pikmin]] to carry items to [[Randomness|random]]ly picked Onions. If they are unable to create any, and have to end the day, the affected Onions will spew out a single seed at the start of the next day. | In {{p1}} and {{p2}}, losing all Pikmin of a given type makes it very hard, but possible, to create more in the same day.
