In the ''Pikmin'' games, an object's [[health]] is not represented with numbers, as is the norm in strategy games, but rather, by a pie chart in a circle. When an entity has all of its health, the wheel will not be visible; it only appears when damage is taken. The pie chart inside the wheel makes a full circle when the health is full, and opens up clockwise, from the top, as damage is sustained, finally opening all the way and disappearing when all health is lost. | In the ''Pikmin'' games, an object's [[health]] is not represented with numbers, as is the norm in strategy games, but rather, by a pie chart in a circle.

In ''Pikmin'', the color of the pie chart gradually moves from green to yellow to red, as the health draws closer to 0. The chart also opens and closes gradually with time, when the health is changed. When the health is at 50% or higher, the color is green, when it's between 20% and 50%, yellow, and on the last fifth of health remaining, the chart is red. In ''Pikmin 2'' and ''3'', the color changes instantly to the next as soon as the required percentage is met, not gradually. It also changes to the final health's color, even when the wheel is still moving. | In ''Pikmin'', the color of the pie chart gradually moves from green to yellow to red, as the health draws closer to 0.

In ''Hey! Pikmin'', an enemy's health is displayed as a small bar instead of a wheel. The bar starts filled with magenta, and as the enemy's health decreases, the magenta portion decreases and the grey proportion increases, from right to left. | In ''Hey!
