'''Paper bags''' are two different types of obstacles in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. They stand as obstacles in pathways; in ''Pikmin 2'', they need to be compressed to open up the areas past them, while in ''Pikmin 3'' they must be pushed off a ledge and serve as a ramp when they drop.
'''Paper bags''' are [[obstacle]]s in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 4]]''. They are partially-compressed paper shopping bags that initially sit above ledges. After pushing them off the ledge with [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], they can be used as a ramp to go up the ledge.


==''Pikmin 2''==
==Mechanics==
Paper bags in ''Pikmin 2'' resemble plain brown grocery bags that compress and expand using their {{w|bellows}}-like sides. They appear upside-down and slightly compressed, but can be squashed completely by [[throw]]ing [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] on top of the bag so that it is weighed down. Different bags need different weight in order to fully succumb, and until that weight requirement is met, the bag will not change size at all. [[Purple Pikmin]], of course, weigh ten, and Pikmin of other types weigh one. The first paper bag is found on the first day of ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', where [[Captain Olimar]] and [[Louie]] must flatten it to reunite.
Paper bags appear as shopping bags of various colors. In ''Pikmin 4'' they have the fictional brand name "Puppies" written on them. Their opening is closed, meaning that the paper bags form a triangular shape from their base to their top. These paper bags are found lying on their side, which means their rectangular bases act as walls, and their slanted sides act as ramps. These are always found with their opening facing a ledge, and they need to be pushed off of it from their base. When they fall down, they act as ramps to the tunnel they were pushed from, serving as shortcuts. All paper bags require a minimum 10 Pikmin to push them. Once they begin pushing it in ''Pikmin 3'', a [[cutscene]] plays; this happens for all paper bags. Pikmin standing below the ledge a paper bag is pushed from will not be crushed by it; instead they will just be pushed out of the way.
 
The small symbol found on top of the paper bags, the word {{j|紙|Kami|Paper|f=tp}} inside a stylized ellipse, is used in Japan to represent paper recycling.{{cite web|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling_in_Japan#Symbols|Recycling in Japan|Wikipedia}}
 
According to game files, paper bags are in fact a [[seesaw block]] with a different appearance and nothing to push it back up.{{source needed}}
 
==''Pikmin 3''==
In ''Pikmin 3'', paper bags appear as blue shopping bags. Their opening is closed, meaning that the bags form a triangular shape from their base to their top. These bags are found lying on their side, which means their rectangular bases act as walls, and their slanted sides act as ramps. These are always found with their opening facing a ledge, and they need to be pushed off of it from their base. When they fall down, they act as ramps to the tunnel they were pushed from, serving as shortcuts. All paper bags require 10 Pikmin to push them, minimum. Once they begin pushing it, a [[cutscene]] plays; this happens for all paper bags. Pikmin standing below the ledge a bag is pushed from will not be crushed by it; instead they will just be pushed out of the way.

Yellow Pikmin and Rock Pikmin push a paper bag.
Pikmin pushing a paper bag in Pikmin 3.
This article is about the pushable obstacle. For the crushable obstacle, see bag.

Paper bags are obstacles in Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4. They are partially-compressed paper shopping bags that initially sit above ledges. After pushing them off the ledge with Pikmin, they can be used as a ramp to go up the ledge.

Mechanics[edit]

Paper bags appear as shopping bags of various colors. In Pikmin 4 they have the fictional brand name "Puppies" written on them. Their opening is closed, meaning that the paper bags form a triangular shape from their base to their top. These paper bags are found lying on their side, which means their rectangular bases act as walls, and their slanted sides act as ramps. These are always found with their opening facing a ledge, and they need to be pushed off of it from their base. When they fall down, they act as ramps to the tunnel they were pushed from, serving as shortcuts. All paper bags require a minimum 10 Pikmin to push them. Once they begin pushing it in Pikmin 3, a cutscene plays; this happens for all paper bags. Pikmin standing below the ledge a paper bag is pushed from will not be crushed by it; instead they will just be pushed out of the way.
