Only the Blue Pikmin and [[Bulbmin]] can safely traverse [[water]]y areas; any other type will simply flail around in panic before drowning. Winged Pikmin may move and [[carry]] objects above the surface of the water, but if thrown onto a pool, they will not be able to swim. While in water, the Blue Pikmin behave almost the same as they do on land. If they are idle and see a nearby Pikmin drowning in water, they will quickly run to them, pick them up, and [[throw]] them to shore. However, they will not rescue Pikmin if they are a certain distance away, so they can't always be relied on. In ''Pikmin 3'', this feature was removed, and Blue Pikmin now also have the ability to swim freely while in pursuit, something necessary to reach some [[Enemy|enemies]] that lie above the ground level. | Only the Blue Pikmin and [[Bulbmin]] can safely traverse [[water]]y areas; any other type will simply flail around in panic before drowning.

Blue Pikmin seem to be the most balanced Pikmin species; they have average attack power, durability, mobility and throw distance. Blue Pikmin have very little utility outside of water, as most enemies that pose water hazards can easily be defeated without Blues. | Blue Pikmin seem to be the most balanced Pikmin species; they have average attack power, durability, mobility, [[digging]] speed and throw distance.
