Glitches are oversights in the making of the game that lead to unexpected results. These can be beneficial, harmful or harmless to you.

Line 52: Line 65:
In [[the Final Trial]] in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]], there is a [[Yellow Wollywog]] near a pipe. If the Yellow Wollywog jumps on the hole in the pipe, it gets stuck there; it can be coerced into doing so by moving [[Olimar]] onto it. While stuck, the Wollywog cannot be harmed; it remains in its jumping animation and cannot be brought out of it.

===Boulder glitch===
===Boulder glitch===
If you use the [[Napsack]], the captain will bounce a bit before lying down. If you can get the captain to bounce just as he is about to get crushed by a boulder, the captain should jump quite high. ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlj59J5M-kI Video])

=== Invisible captain ===
=== Invisible captain ===
If one of your captains dies in any sublevel in a cave, then his body will become invisible, but he is still there. Wollywogs are most preferable for this. The active captain must attack it where the invisible captain is. When it leaps in the air after being hit enough times, the invisible captain will be hit, showing his body suit being damaged. This glitch does strange and harmful things to the game, so try to yield after attacking and do not save after you're done with the sublevel.

===Invisible objects===
{{main|Cutscene glitches#Disappearing items}}
During certain cutscenes, most objects that can be carried are invisible.
===Invincible Wollywog===
When you enter the [[Shower Room]], a [[Wollywog]] will fall from the ceiling on the first floor. Mob it with [[Purple Pikmin]]. If done correctly, the Wollywog should get trapped in the ground and not move at all, thus making it unkillable. A video can be seen [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBTBpJEo9t4 here]

=== Weird Waterwraith ===
When you are fighting a [[Waterwraith]] and have destroyed its rollers, if your captains are far apart and you repeatedly switch between them, the Waterwraith's walking animation will freeze, but it will still be "sliding" around.

When Pikmin bring down ship parts located on high ledges, the part may wobble and spin upon impact with the ground. At times, it may remain in a tilted position while the Pikmin continue carrying it. In this situation, Pikmin that were grabbing the raised portion of the part will continue holding onto it, and will remain in the air until the part is dropped or recovered. This glitch can also occur with treasures and pellets.

Line 150: Line 163:
In ''Pikmin'', and more frequently in the ''New Play Control!'' version, if an enemy is defeated, it usually falls to the ground. Occasionally, when an enemy falls, a few Pikmin mysteriously vanish without a ghost sprite, or even a sound. There are several enemies that have this happen more frequently than others, and it also happens with more regularity when swarming enemies rather than throwing Pikmin at them. Although rare, this can also happen in ''Pikmin 2'' when a treasure falls on a Pikmin.
