Blue Pikmin are the last species of Pikmin discovered in all three games. In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', their Onion is found in the [[Forest Navel]]. In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', 5 of them can be found near their Onion chasing after Wogpoles in the [[Awakening Wood]] in the same area where the Radiation Canopy was found in ''Pikmin.'' To gain control of them, [[Yellow Pikmin]] are required to break down the electrified gate. Throw them up onto the ledge, then run around to whistle them. However, there is a [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]] buried outside of the arena that the Blue Pikmin reside in, so be wary. In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', they are found in the [[Garden of Hope]] after rescuing [[Louie]] in the [[Twilight River]]. You must use the [[Winged Pikmin]] to pull the Blue Onion from the ground. They are often considered the most useful Pikmin, especially in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', due to their ability to traverse water safely, which takes up a large amount of the terrain.

They are often considered the least usefull Pikmin type, as most parts in ''Pikmin ''that seemingly require them can be obtained in another way. In ''Pikmin 2, ''a majority of the areas in the game can be reached without the need for Blue Pikmin. In ''Pikmin 3, ''Blues are the least usefull and have little to no use in story mode, aside from 100%ing the game by going back to the previous areas to collect the game's few submerged fruits.

*In the beta game's code for ''Pikmin'', the Blue Pikmin, along with the Red Pikmin, could use [[Bomb Rock]]s. This was implemented in ''Pikmin 3''.
*The [[Forest of Hope]] and [[Formidable Oak]] are the only two areas in the entire Pikmin series where Blue Pikmin are not required at all.
*The Blue Onion had a reboot up scene which was cut from the final game
*In the beta game's code for ''Pikmin'', the Blue Pikmin, along with the Red Pikmin, could use [[Bomb Rock]]s. This was reimplemented in ''Pikmin 3''.
*In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', Blue Pikmin are the very last type of Pikmin found, and appear very late in the game. The only instance in the entire game where they are required is to construct the ceramic pot in the [[Garden of Hope]]. However, there is an exploit that allows the player to bypass the pot's construction, therefore making it possible to beat Pikmin 3 without ever rescuing the Blue Onion.

*Due to the Blue Pikmin's lack of use in most of the games, and appearances relatively late in the game, players often will attempt "Blueless Quests", a type of run where the player's goal is to complete as much as possible before Blue Pikmin ''must ''be used to progress further.
