|howto = [[Throw]] Pikmin up a ledge or over a gap, call them, and repeatedly use the [[Dodge Whistle]] against a wall. The Pikmin should roll, going farther than possible to throw. If you [[dismiss]] your Pikmin after they have rolled close to an object, such as the [[hay]] pile north of the landing site in [[Distant Tundra]], they will interact with it, allowing access to some areas that shouldn't be accessible.

|explanation = When dodging, the Pikmin are programmed to roll with the leader, but if the leader's roll path is blocked, and the Pikmin's is not, then they will still roll.

| howto = Bring everything (the Sanbelching Meerslug, the [[Crimson Banquet]], and the [[Folded Data Glutton]]) back nearly at the same time.
| notes = You have to order the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to bring everything back very quickly, or else the glitch won't work.
