Onion: Difference between revisions

In ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3'', White Pikmin were only available by converting other-colored pikmin into them with [[Ivory Candypop Bud]]s. However, the existence of a White Onion was proven in ''Pikmin 4''. After the player completes [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]], they will unlock a special [[cave]] in the [[Rescue Command Post]], called the [[Trial of the Sage Leaf]]. In its 5th story, [[Trial of the Sage Leaf#5th Story: The White Key|The White Key]], the White Onion can be discovered behind a numbered [[gate]], requiring [[Pikmin 4 player character|the player]] to collect the "[[Sacred Sphere Series|nine dragon jewels]]" to open it. Once the player transports the onion to the [[S.S. Beagle]] and completes the story (with any rank), they will unlock the White onion for use above ground.

Similar to the White Pikmin, Purple Pikmin were only available via [[Violet Candypop Bud]]s prior to ''Pikmin 4'' and were believed to not have an onion. Like the White Onion, it can be unlocked in the [[Trial of the Sage Leaf]], this time within its 10th and final story, [[Trial of the Sage Leaf#Final Story: The Purple Key|The Purple Key]]. The onion is on a ledge right next to the [[S.S. Beagle]], but across a small opening only [[Pikmin 4 player character|the player]] can go through, meaning the onion must be carried through a maze of obstacles (including a patrolling [[Waterwraith]]). Once the player transports the onion to the S.S. Beagle and completes the story (with any rank), they will unlock the Purple onion for use above ground.
