The '''candypop family''' is a family of plants in the {{ps}}. Initially, the family consisted only of [[Candypop Bud]]s, but from ''Pikmin 4'' onward, other important gameplay plants were identified as being part of the family as well.


In Pikmin 1, the maximum number of pikmin that you can throw in the bud is 50, but in 2, it has decreased to 5.

When Pikmin are tossed into a Candypop Bud, Pikmin of the same color are shot back out, allowing Pikmin to be converted between types. There are 8 colors of Candypop Bud, each corresponding to a type of Pikmin. (In ''Pikmin 2'', different colors of Candypop Buds are considered different species, while in ''Pikmin'', ''Pikmin 3'' and ''Pikmin 4'', all colors are considered the same species.)

If Yellow Pikmin are thrown in, they will be reverted to leaf stages, and don't count against the 5 Pikmin limit per Candypop Bud. This particular Candypop Bud is unfathomably rare, because only one is found inside Glutton's Kitchen on Sublevel 3.

Scientific name: ''Lillium pikminporta''
 
Onions are large and round life forms that act as nests for the Pikmin. They allow leaders to store and retrieve Pikmin, as well as spitting out new Pikmin seeds. Additionally, starting in ''Pikmin 3'', Onions of different types are capable of merging together.

Scientific name: ''Flora regina''
 
Queen Candypop Buds are unique in the Candypop family. Their petals are white with colored spots which cycle between red, yellow, and blue. When a Pikmin of any type is tossed in, 9 seeds which match the color of the spots are ejected, giving players an eight-Pikmin gain. After the seeds are ejected, the Queen Candypop Bud wilts. These flowers are generally found in [[rest sublevel]]s of caves, to let the player increase their Pikmin population. They only appear in ''Pikmin 2''.

Queen Candypop Buds are very unique Candypop Buds, as they allow you to gain up to 8 Pikmin if you throw any color in them. Nine Pikmin will pop out, but one is the Pikmin you first threw in. The only colors you may get are the primary colors; red, yellow, and blue. The Queen Candypop Bud will slowly change the color of its spots, so when the spots turn the desired Pikmin color, toss one in. These flowers are found only in the specific sublevels of difficult caves, usually after a previous grueling battle with a boss, sometimes referred to as 'rest stops'.
