'''Gates''' (also called '''walls''') are obstacles in all [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]] that block paths to other areas. They are found in a number of different forms, which require different strategies to overcome. In general, they can be destroyed by [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]: a [[leader]] just needs to order them to work on the structure. As time passes, a gate that is being destroyed becomes weaker in distinct stages, before finally being taken down with the standard "task complete" sound effect. The length of time it takes to demolish a gate depends on its type, and the number and types of Pikmin working on it. Some gates require specific Pikmin types to overcome.

In ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', gates have three stages, and when passing from one to the next, they sink lower to the ground. ''Pikmin 3'' eschews this for a more realistic look, where the gates show visible damage.
