In the ''Pikmin'' games, a Pikmin that is moving can [[random]]ly fumble, and either fall down face-first (referred to as '''tripping'''), or careen forward a bit (referred to as '''stumbling'''). When this happens, the Pikmin is usually unusable until it recovers. A Pikmin that trips or stumbles runs the risk of being forgotten, hurt by [[enemies]], or flung into an [[obstacle]]{{cite web|https://clips.twitch.tv/AverageCheerfulRamenKappaPride|Twitch video (language warning)|Twitch|published={{date|10|June|2019}}|retrieved={{date|11|June|2019}}}}, making it important for the player to pay attention to the whole group and use whatever tools they have to get the Pikmin back to normal quickly. How likely a Pikmin is to trip, or if it can trip at all, depends on its type, and what it is doing. | In the ''Pikmin'' games, a Pikmin that is moving can [[random]]ly fumble, and either fall down face-first (referred to as '''tripping'''), or careen forward a bit (referred to as '''stumbling''').

Tripping was introduced in [[Pikmin (game)|the first game]], where it is fairly common. It carried over to {{p2}}, where the chances for a Pikmin to trip got reduced, but stumbling was added. Both mechanics were removed entirely in {{p3}}. Tripping was later re-added for {{hp}} but it has been made less punishing – Pikmin only trip in specific spots, and they get up faster. | Tripping was introduced in [[Pikmin (game)|the first game]], where it is fairly common.
