'''Candypop Buds''' are large flowers with fleshy petals and are found in all three [[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin games]]. When [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are tossed into these gigantic blossoms, they spit out new Pikmin seeds which match the color of their petals. In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', Candypops will wither after 50 Pikmin are thrown in, but this number was reduced to 5 in the [[Pikmin 2|second game]], likely due to the 2 new species. Using Pikmin of the same color as the flower will not count against this limit, although they will be reverted to leaf Pikmin and planted in the ground.

In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' they have a different appearence, consisting of a large bucket-like cup in the middle of the flower, most likely as a "target" for captains to aim pikmin. They also behave differently, as they stay closed until they are approached.

Olimar notes in a [[Olimar's Notes|journal entry]] state that Candypop Buds could be the next step in Pikmin evolution, and in another that Candy pops could be the same species.

* In ''<nowiki>Pikmin 3'</nowiki>''s japanese guide book, the names of the pink and rock Candypop Buds translate roughly to "Slate Candy pop Bud" and "Alizarin Candy pop Bud", respectively. Slate is a dark grey, polished substance, while alizarin is a deep red mineral that is pinkish when used in small ammounts. These Candypop Buds were not given any english name, to date.
