The leader is followed by Pikmin he has called out of the [[Onion]] or plucked, and by lone Pikmin he touches or whistles at. The leader can throw Pikmin for various purposes, or attack monsters himself when no Pikmin are nearby. [[Puffstool]]s, mature [[Bulbmin]] and [[Antenna Beetle]]s act as naturally occurring enemy leaders, in each of the two ''Pikmin'' games, stealing the player's Pikmin or scouting with their own, respectively. | The leader is followed by Pikmin he has called out of the [[Onion]] or plucked, and by lone Pikmin he touches or whistles at.
