In the {{ps}}, [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] and [[leaders]] need to engage in '''combat''' against the many different [[enemies]] they encounter. Combat is a core mechanic of the series, as it is frequently required to open up paths or retrieve [[:Category:Collectibles|collectibles]]. The general goal of combat is to reduce an enemy's [[health]] to 0, but there are several ways of damaging enemies and many technicalities of the combat system.

Each pound also has a chance of stunning an enemy. For most enemies, this chance is 30%, but some enemies have higher or lower chances. When an enemy is stunned, it is frozen and does not move, usually for 5 seconds, though a few enemies have longer stun times.

In {{p3}}, while the pound does exist, it does not damage enemies. Throwing a Purple Pikmin onto an enemy will result in the Pikmin going idle on top of it, before then attacking normally.
In {{p4}}, the pound is set to do proportional damage to the enemy, similar to how Rock Pikmin are handled in Pikmin 3. Each enemy has a set amount of Purple Pikmin thrown onto it before death.

When a White Pikmin is eaten by an enemy, the enemy will instantly take damage from the White Pikmin's internal poison. Each White Pikmin ingestion causes individual damage, even if multiple are eaten at once. Every enemy takes a different amount of damage from an ingestion, and this varies by species and by game.

Bomb rocks can be used in combat. Their explosions deal a variable amount of damage to objects in range, though they usually cause much more damage to an enemy that ingests it directly.

Additionally, some enemies such as [[Spotty Bulbear|Bulbears]] will foolishly eat them, defeating themselves in the process.

The other players control [[Mii]]s in Pikmin costumes. They can attack with {{button|wii|1}}, which will do a simple smack with whatever is on the end of their stem. This, in combination with {{button|wii|2}} to jump, makes the players able to utilize several attacks. When using powerups, some of these attacks behave differently.
