Blue Pikmin are not needed for any ship part, but some can only be collected with Red/Yellow Pikmin using exploits. There are two main ones: the [[Glitches in Pikmin#Object nudging|object nudging glitch]] allows one to push ship parts out of the water, while the [[Glitches in Pikmin#Drowning reset|drowning reset glitch]] allows Pikmin to travel large bodies of water without drowning. Other minor exploits and glitches include ending the day to make a ship part appear on the closest [[carrying]] waypoint in the following day, which can place ship parts in unintended places, and the ability to place a [[Lie down|lying]] Olimar between a treasure and a wall to make him pop up on top of the wall, and going out of bounds.

**{{icon|Positron Generator|y}}: The ship is on a Pearly Clamclamp on a beach. Although by using small islands on the beach, it is possible to attack the Pearly Clamclamp using Red or Yellow Pikmin, and the ship part can then be pushed out of the water with the [[Glitches in Pikmin#Object nudging|object nudging glitch]].{{cite youtube|cB2E8pCVqco|showing the Positron Generator being recovered using only Red Pikmin}}

**{{icon|Radiation Canopy|y}}: The path that Olimar needs to cross is blocked by a gate on a body of water. However, with precise [[throw]]s, it's possible to throw bomb-rock Yellow Pikmin to the top of the gate, and destroy it without needing Blues.

**{{icon|Geiger Counter|y}}: In order to reach the [[Burrowing Snagret]] that holds the ship part, a [[cardboard box]] must be pushed out of the way, and Blue Pikmin need to be guided from a puddle to the backside of the box. Although it is possible to use other Pikmin to throw the box, either with [[Throw#Longer throw trick|long throws]] or by throwing them to the top of the box and [[Group move|guiding them]] to the back.

**{{icon|Sagittarius|y}}: Two bridges must be built to reach the part, but one of them can only be reached by tossing Pikmin while in a large pond. Luckily, there is a small protrusion on the island that allows non-Blue Pikmin to shore on, and from there, they can be thrown at the bridge. To reach the bit of land, the Pikmin can just swim towards it from the mainland.

**{{icon|Analog Computer|y}}: This ship part is submerged in water, although it can be taken out using the object nudging glitch.

**{{icon|Number 1 Ionium Jet|y}}: Same as the Analog Computer.
**{{icon|Number 1 Ionium Jet|y}}: This ship part is submerged in water. It can be pushed out with the object nudging glitch, but it is too resistant to the pushes to do so effectively. By luring a [[Male Sheargrub]] and using its corpse or a pellet, Olimar can push the pellet, which in turn pushes the ship part. By bringing it close to the bodies of water in the higher levels and ending the day, it is possible for the Ionium Jet to appear in the next body of water by the next day. Eventually, the ship part can be brought to land.{{cite youtube|RMBsv9rcRPU|showing how to obtain the #1 Ionium Jet using only Red Pikmin}}
**{{icon|Libra|y}}: Blue Pikmin are needed to activate the geyser that gives Olimar access to the first high ledge. Although it is possible to have other Pikmin types open the geyser: if they are [[Group move|guided]] towards it, they might land one or two hits before starting their drowning sequence. They can just be called back, and the process can be repeated until the geyser is enabled.{{cite youtube|79o04GEvocI|showing how, in theory, one can obtain the Libra using only Red Pikmin}}

**{{icon|Anti-Dioxin Filter|y}}: The part is on a large pool of water, but with the object nudging glitch, it is possible to take it out without Blues.

**{{icon|Interstellar Radio|y}}: The Puffy Blowhog containing this ship part is over water and the path to carry the ship part back to the ship goes through the large lake of water. By going out of bounds on the south using the Massage Machine, and attacking the Blowhog from dry land, and by nudging the ship part out of the water, it can be collected.{{cite youtube|WOI6IicVlT4|showing how to collect the Interstellar Radio, Repair-type Bolt, and Massage Machine using only Red Pikmin|rname=isrtbmm}}
**{{icon|Repair-type Bolt|y}}: This part is on top of a ledge. When it falls off, it will almost immediately land in the water. It can be nudged to dry land, however.{{cite youtube|rname=isrtbmm}}
**{{icon|Chronos Reactor|y}}: This part is located a long way across a pool of water. As part of the puzzle, the Blue Pikmin carrying this part must first become Yellow Pikmin. By using the [[Spotty Bulbear]] near the maze, Olimar can be pushed to the ledges out of bounds, and from there, lure a [[Swooping Snitchbug]] near where the Chronos Reactor is. Its corpse or pellets can be used to bring Olimar to the ship part's ledge, where it can then be pushed all the way out of the water section of the area and onto regular dry land.{{cite youtube|jqcRTYmF9iA|showing how to obtain the Chronos Reactor with Red Pikmin only}}
**{{icon|Number 2 Ionium Jet|y}}: This part is on top of a tall ledge that opens into water. By bringing Pikmin to the ship part's shore using the drowning reset glitch, it's possible to bring enough Pikmin to take the part out of the ledge. From there, it can be pushed to near the [[Pilot's Seat]] section, which will make it appear right next to the Pilot's Seat the next day. Since it takes too long to push normally, a [[Water Dumple]] corpse must be pushed instead, which in turn pushes the Ionium Jet.{{cite youtube|vs5DMBHSYF0|showing how to collect the #2 Ionium Jet using Red Pikmin only}}
**{{icon|Gluon Drive|y}}: This part is opposite a wide river, and a bridge must be built from the other side. However, Pikmin can be tossed from the [[Zirconium Rotor]]'s location.

**{{icon|Massage Machine|y}}: This part is across a large lake, with the bridge that must be built located on the opposite shore. However, by throwing Red Pikmin or Yellow Pikmin to the water and whistling them to the other shore, it is possible to have them build the bridge.{{cite youtube|rname=isrtbmm}}
**{{icon|Secret Safe|y}}: The island with the bridges is in the middle of the lake, meaning Blue Pikmin must traverse it to reach it. That said, it is not too hard to guide Red or Yellow Pikmin to the island, by whistling them to it while they're drowning.

**{{icon|Goolix|y}}: Only Blue Pikmin can touch its body, but it's still possible to defeat the creature without them by throwing Pikmin when it stretches.
