Mine are as follows...
#White Pikmin - They're fast. Rush Boots, take a group of flowered Whites into an area, kill ''everything'', and just bring it all back to the ship and Onions. Very fun.
#Blue Pikmin - Blue Pikmin don't really have any super special combat abilities, but you can't overlook the fact that they can go in water, allowing them to kill more enemies and grab more goodies than other Pikmin. Unfortunately, because everything goes to the blue Onion, I always find myself with a surplus of Blues....
#Yellow Pikmin - I've always thought Yellows were neat, but in terms of usefulness, they aren't fantastic. I think there could be way more puzzles based around their high-flying ability than there currently are, although that same ability can become pretty annoying in combat (unless fighting flying enemies, in which case it's great). They are immune to electricity, which is most useful when taking down gates, although most other electric hazards and enemies can still be killed with other Pikmin with careful timing.
#Purple Pikmin - They're too powerful. Even a group of ten Purples will absolutely rape any enemy unlucky enough to find itself in your path without any risk of losing anything, and it kind of makes it not fun; realizing this, the creators decided to give Purples the downside of being incredibly slow, but this doesn't detract from their power, and instead just makes lugging them along with you on long trips ''incredibly'' frustrating. You either have to develop a lot of patience to use them, or just not bring them at all, but then of course they're useless.
#Red Pikmin - Close call between Reds and Purples, but the advantage Purples have over Reds is that they're actually useful in some situations. Reds weren't bad in Pikmin 1, but in Pikmin 2, their high attack damage was made redundant by Purples; in addition, their resistance to fire is much less useful in Pikmin 2, since not only can fire geysers be destroyed, but it's much easier to save burning Pikmin from death. They're just...totally useless in Pikmin 2.
