'''Purple Pikmin''' are found in [[Pikmin 2]] and and are first found in the [[Emergence Cave]]. They are specifically required to obtain three treasures, two of which are needed to obtain new areas. Purple Pikmin are not found in Pikmin 1: It can be assumed they haven't evolved yet. Purples are much heavier than their cousins but, much like an ant, can carry several times their own weight.

Purples are much heavier than their cousins but, much like an ant, can carry several times their own weight. They can carry ten times the weight other Pikmin can. They weigh ten times as much as any other Pikmin. (If Pikmin weigh and can carry exactly 1 gram, a Purple weighs the same as a Red Bulborb.) They're also the only known race to actually have hair. Their weight, however, slows them down when they move or carry items: with flowers, Purples can run half as fast as others, and one-fifth as fast as Whites, and move even slower when carrying items. | ||
They are notorious for their effectiveness on the battleground, as when thrown, they will land with a resounding thump, stunning and seriously injuring larger beasts, and fatally injuring smaller, more fragile creatures, such as Shearwigs and Dwarf Bulborbs. Bosses are harder to stun, and require several direct hits to do so. In fights, Purple Pikmin are the strongest, though it can be argued that Reds are stronger as their attacks grow exponentially. | They are notorious for their effectiveness on the battleground, as when thrown, they will land with a resounding thump, stunning and seriously injuring larger beasts, and fatally injuring smaller, more fragile creatures, such as Shearwigs and Dwarf Bulborbs.

Take a single Pikmin into that cave and skip sublevels until you reach the eighth one, with an [[Geyser|exit geyser]], Candypop Buds and some [[eggs]]. Use the [[Queen Candypop Bud]]s first and the Violet Candypop Buds after to produce 15 Purple Pikmin and 2 [[Red Pikmin|Red]], [[Blue Pikmin|Blue]] or [[Yellow Pikmin]]. | ||
