| effects = The Pikmin counter will display erroneous numbers, including a total of Pikmin on the field that doesn't correspond to the truth, and a number of Pikmin on the party superior to that of the field number.

| howto = So far, there is no known way to trigger the glitch on purpose. It seems to happen most often when Pikmin die with unconventional ways, especially by being killed by the [[Smoky Progg]]'s smoke trail. It also happens with some frequency with deaths caused by [[The Forest Navel]]'s [[Pit|abysses]], and when several Pikmin die at once. Furthermore, it can also be related to some bridge glitches. Lastly, the [[Glitches in Pikmin#Crushing glitch|crushing glitch]] can also sometimes trigger this.

| explanation = Some of the possible Pikmin deaths must override the standard "killing" procedure. When certain, as of now unknown circumstances happen, the code will not handle deaths the normal way, and the Pikmin counter won't be updated correctly.
