A '''pellet''' ({{j|ペレット|Peretto|Pellet}}) is a crystallized chunk of [[nectar]] that contains vitamins and other nutrition. Pellets are used to produce [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], by bringing them to the [[Onion]], and are the main source of seeds at the start of the [[Pikmin series|games]], as large [[Enemy|creatures]] require many Pikmin to kill safely.

Pellets come in a variety of sizes, and each one produces a different amount of Pikmin. An Arabic numeral can be seen atop each one, reflecting its weight. Pellets with the numbers 1, 5, 8, 10, and 20 exist. If the color of the pellet matches the color of the [[Onion]] it is [[Carry|brought to]], that same number of Pikmin is produced (the exception being the number 1, which creates two Pikmin). If not, only half that number, rounded up, will appear.

If not, only half that number, rounded up, will appear. According to the Japanese [[region|version]] of {{p2}}, this is due to a better absorption of the nutrients in the pellet.


They are found on the top of [[Pellet Posy|Pellet Posies]], and sometimes on the ground. Certain creatures of [[PNF-404]] also leave pellets as spoils at times; they have presumably eaten pellets, which could indicate the possibility that the same creatures are herbivores, if not omnivores.

;1 pellet: The most common size of pellet and the only kind found on Pellet Posies in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''. If they are brought to the same colored Onion, they produce 2 Pikmin, if not, they produce just 1 Pikmin.

;5 pellet: A fairly rare pellet; these are found on the ground or dropped by enemies in ''Pikmin'', but pellet-bearing Pellet Posies debuted with this pellet in ''Pikmin 2''. If they are brought to the same colored Onion, they produce 5 Pikmin, if not, they produce only 3 Pikmin. The Pellet Posies for this plant are only found in the [[Valley of Repose]] in ''Pikmin 2'', but are more common in the other games. They can be found in some fixed places in ''Pikmin 3'', but two of them grow atop the defeated [[Quaggled Mireclops]].
