'''Climbing sticks''' (known among fans as '''twigs''' prior to ''Pikmin 3'') are obstacles found in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']] and ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' that require [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to build and shimmy up them. They are somewhat similar to [[bridge]]s, but they are not used by [[leader]]s, nor by Pikmin carrying something. [[Sheargrub]]s and [[Shearwig]]s will fortunately not dismantle these useful ladders, although they are automatically leveled every day after sundown in ''Pikmin'' | '''Climbing sticks''' (known among fans as '''twigs''' prior to ''Pikmin 3'') are obstacles found in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']] and ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' that require [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to build and shimmy up them.

In ''Pikmin 3'', Pikmin that [[carry]] single-weight objects on a route will use climbing sticks. Some climbing sticks need to be built, while others are already built. | ||
In ''Pikmin'', an interesting event that can happen is that there is a good chance that one or more Pikmin will start climbing the stick while other Pikmin are working on it. This is commonly seen on [[The Impact Site]], when the player wants to bring 100 Pikmin up the trunk. [[Group move|Swarming]] the climbing stick will increase the chances of this happening. Additionally, swarming many Pikmin on a finished climbing stick might cause some Pikmin to get stuck on the bottom. | In ''Pikmin'', an interesting event that can happen is that there is a good chance that one or more Pikmin will start climbing the stick while other Pikmin are working on it.
