=== White Onion ===
{{futuregame}}
In ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3'', White Pikmin were only available by converting other-colored Pikmin into them with [[Ivory Candypop Bud]]s. However, the existence of a White Onion was proven in ''Pikmin 4''. After the player completes [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]], they will unlock a special [[cave]] in the [[Rescue Command Post]], called the [[Trial of the Sage Leaf]]. In its 5th story, [[Trial of the Sage Leaf#5th Story: The White Key|The White Key]], the White Onion can be discovered behind a numbered [[gate]], requiring [[Pikmin 4 player character|the player]] to collect the "[[Sacred Sphere Series|nine dragon jewels]]" to open it. Once the player transports the onion to the [[S.S. Beagle]] and completes the story (with any rank), they will unlock the White Onion for use above ground. This Onion weighs 10 units.

=== Purple Onion ===
=== Purple Onion ===
{{futuregame}}
Similar to the White Pikmin, Purple Pikmin were only available via [[Violet Candypop Bud]]s prior to ''Pikmin 4'' and were believed to not have an Onion. Like the White Onion, it can be unlocked in the [[Trial of the Sage Leaf]], this time within its 10th and final story, [[Trial of the Sage Leaf#Final Story: The Purple Key|The Purple Key]]. The Onion is on a ledge near the [[S.S. Beagle]], but across a small opening only [[Pikmin 4 player character|the player]] can go through, meaning the Onion must be carried through a maze of obstacles (including a patrolling [[Waterwraith]]). Once the player transports the Onion to the S.S. Beagle and completes the story (with any rank), they will unlock the Purple Onion for use above ground.

=== Ice Onion ===
=== Ice Onion ===
{{futuregame}}
The Ice Onion is home to ''Pikmin 4'''s [[Ice Pikmin]]. It can be found encased in [[hydro jelly]] in the north of the [[Hero's Hideaway]]. The Onion cannot be reached without traversing through the [[Frozen Inferno]], which by extension requires the player to have unlocked the [[Scorch Guard]] for both their character and [[Oatchi]]. This makes the Ice Onion in ''Pikmin 4'' the only Onion in the series to require an upgrade to obtain. The Ice Onion weighs 30 units.

The Master Onion returns in ''Pikmin 4'', but with a new design. It also works differently from the previous game, as individual Onions can only be activated upon being brought back to any active [[base]] to be absorbed by the Master Onion, and remains completely dormant otherwise. Pikmin that do not have Onions yet and [[Oatchi]] will prioritize growing the Pikmin type that has the least amount of Pikmin, unlike the “onionless” types in [[Pikmin 2]]

{{main|Flarlic}}
{{main|Flarlic}}
Flarlic is introduced in ''Pikmin 4''. It does not fulfil the role of Onions in a typical sense, but the game's Piklopedia and completion counters count Flarlics as Onions. They simply increase the maximum Pikmin limit of an Onion by ten when brought back to the Master Onion, up to a maximum of 100. More Flarlics after that will instead force the Onion to produce [[nectar]] and [[ultra-spicy spray]].
