The '''Horsetail''' ({{j|ツクシ|Tsukushi|Horsetail}}) is a [[plant]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. The plant is brownish and stiffly sticks out of the ground like a post. This hardy plant can survive in soil conditions with few nutrients, but is still very rarely seen, only appearing in the [[Awakening Wood]] and underground in the [[Hole of Beasts]]. Horsetails, unlike most plants, have retained the primitive method of reproducing via {{w|spore}}s.
