'''Gas pipes''' are hazardous [[obstacle]]s in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. As the name would indicate, they are small tubes that emit a steady stream of [[poison]] gas. They can commonly be found in [[cave]]s by themselves, though some are present in the [[areas|overworld]] as well, commonly inside [[Gate|bramble gates]] or [[bridge]]s. | '''Gas pipes''' are hazardous [[obstacle]]s in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''.

As they constantly emit poison, a [[hazard]] only [[White Pikmin]] | As they constantly emit poison, a [[hazard]] only [[White Pikmin]], [[Bulbmin]] and [[Glow Pikmin]] can handle, White Pikmin, Bulbmin and Glow Pikmin generally must be used to deactivate them, by [[Combat|attacking]] them like an [[enemy]]. Once deactivated, it will stop emitting poison. However, gas pipes can be deactivated with non-White Pikmin as well. For this, one must [[throw]] a Pikmin directly onto the pipe. Although uncommon, the Pikmin will sometimes land a hit before starting to choke. From this point, the Pikmin can just be [[whistle]]d back, and the cycle can repeat until eventually the pipe is deactivated. It's also possible to bait a [[Gatling Groink]] into attacking the pipes, which will gradually decrease their [[health]]. This can only be done to the gas pipes on the gate after the lake in the [[Wistful Wild]]. | ||
On the surface of areas, gas pipes that are placed inside gates or bridges function as a means of only allowing [[White Pikmin]] to be used to break down the obstacle. For gates, however, the top two thirds can still be latched-on to by [[throw]]n Pikmin, regardless of type. If the player hasn't unlocked White Pikmin yet, it will be impossible to cause damage to these gates – Pikmin will just ignore them. This behavior also applies to cave sublevels, if there is a gas pipe sufficiently near a gate.{{cite web|https://old.reddit.com/r/Pikmin/comments/v3q3ez/game_softlocked_itself_d/|Game softlocked itself :D|reddit|published={{date|3|June|2022}}|retrieved={{date|4|June|2022}}}} However, if the gate is spawned in the area without the gas pipes, which can be achieved, for instance, by destroying the gas pipes with a [[Gatling Groink]], entering a cave, and then exiting, the gate will work like a normal gate again. | On the surface of areas, gas pipes that are placed inside gates or bridges function as a means of only allowing [[White Pikmin]] to be used to break down the obstacle.
