'''Sparklium''' is the fuel used to power the [[S.S. Dolphin II]] in {{hp}}. When [[Captain Olimar]] crashes on the planet introduced in ''Hey! Pikmin'', the S.S. Dolphin II informs him that it has lost the entirety of its fuel and that they need to recover 30,000 Sparklium in order for the ship to become fully functional. The best source of Sparklium is [[treasure]]s, but Sparklium is more abundant in the form of [[Sparklium Seeds]], which come in golden and red varieties. Additionally, crystals that yield Sparklium can be found in the [[Sparklium Springs]].

Sparklium is also used by the ship to provide Olimar with upgrades, which get unlocked after certain levels of Sparklium are collected. A list of upgrades can be found [[Upgrade#Hey! Pikmin upgrades|here]].

There are seeds scattered around each [[area]] that yield Sparklium when collected. They are collected by having Olimar touch them, and can be carried by Pikmin. These seeds can be found on the ground, floating in the air, appear from defeated [[enemies]], or carried by [[Coppeller]]s. There are two varieties: the golden seeds are the most common ones, and yield 1 Sparklium each. The red ones are larger and rarer, and yield 5. When the player re-enters an area that has already been explored, any treasure that has been collected will be replaced by a Rainbow Sparklium Seed, worth 50 Sparklium.
'''Sparklium Seeds''' are seeds that resemble small acorns, and are sources of Sparklium. They come in three varieties:
 
#Yellow Sparklium Seeds. These are the smallest and most common variety, and they are worth {{sparklium|1}} each.
#Red Sparklium Seeds. The red variety is larger than its goldish cousin, and each one is worth {{sparklium|5}} each.
#Rainbow Sparklium Seeds. This colorful seed is by far the largest of the three. Each one slightly larger than Olimar himself. These replace [[treasure]]s that have already been collected when an area is replayed. Each one is worth {{sparklium|50}}.
 
Sparklium Seeds are collected by having Captain Olimar or a Pikmin in the group touch them. They can be found out in the open, either at ground level, or floating in the air, which more often than not, requires the player to [[throw]] a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] at them to retrieve them. Thrown Pikmin that touch seeds will grab them and [[carry]] them to Olimar – carried seeds can only be collected once Olimar touches them. Seeds can also come out of defeated enemies, large golden flowers, or from holes plugged by [[vine]]s.
