'''Leaflings''' ({{j|葉っぱ人|Happa Jin|Leaf Man}}) are characters in {{p4}} that cannot be identified because their heads are entirely covered by leaves. Their ID badges are unreadable due to corrupted biometric data, listing their name as "???" or "Error" and their home planet as [[PNF-404]]. They can be found in [[Dandori Challenge]]s, [[Dandori Battle]]s, and a few [[cave]]s, and can be converted back into regular characters by curing them with [[glow sap]].

They can be found in [[Dandori Challenge]]s, [[Dandori Battle]]s, and a few [[cave]]s, and can be converted back into regular characters by curing them with [[glow sap]].


The biology of leaflings is unknown. [[#Leafling Olimar|Olimar as a leafling]] can be seen kidnapping a [[castaway]], dragging it into an [[Onion]], and making it pop out as a leafling. He justifies this by saying that those that don't embrace [[dandori]] cannot survive in the planet, but they thrive instead if they have the leaves. This process is how leaflings are made. [[Dandori Challenge]]s and most [[Dandori Battle]]s are run by characters that are themselves leaflings. In this state, leafling characters are unable to speak in normal sentences, instead using simple words and small sentences at a time, and are obsessed with dandori. They will hand over the leafling castaways they have, or fall unconscious so they can be rescued themselves, if they witness a good display of dandori in their challenges or battles. [[Glow sap]] from a [[Lumiknoll]] can be made into medicine by Yonny that dissolves the leaves, reverting the leaflings to their normal state. According to dialogue from cured characters,<ref>For example, [[Bernard]] describes how he was unable to take his mind off dandori and [[Molly]] laments how nobody was there to film her conversion to a leafling.</ref> they remember their time as leaflings but retain the personalities they had before becoming obsessed with dandori. Following his curing, Olimar believes that leaflings may have had Pikmin DNA incorporated into their bodies after being taken into an [[Onion]], triggering their physical and psychological changes and causing them to rapidly sicken if they try to leave [[PNF-404]]. Although he does not know what purpose this "Pikmin-ification' might have, he speculates that the Pikmin may be trying to create a permanent [[leader]] for themselves.

[[Glow sap]] from a [[Lumiknoll]] can be made into medicine by Yonny that dissolves the leaves, reverting the leaflings to their normal state.
 
According to dialogue from cured characters{{cite quote|My memories from my time as a leafling are rather vague... The one thing I do remember is the sense of feeling trapped becoming stronger. It's like I was locked up inside of a dark cave.|Boris after being cured|''Pikmin 4''}}, they do not remember the majority of their time as leaflings (excluding the obsession with dandori{{cite quote|While I had leaves on the brain, my head couldn't stop thinking about Dandori...|Bernard after being cured|''Pikmin 4''}}{{cite quote|When I was leafified, I could not stop thinking about the art of Dandori. It was like an endless meditation.|Jin after being cured|''Pikmin 4''}}). However, they can regain some memories with effort{{cite quote|When I was a leafling, I saw something that still nags at me. Perhaps if I search my memories, I could piece it together...|Captain Olimar after being cured|''Pikmin 4''}}. Additionally, they retain the personalities they had before being transformed.
