They possess a unique trait which allows them to crystallize their nectar into [[pellet]]s, which are dropped when the plant is broken down by a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. Pikmin can be ordered to carry these back to their [[Onion]]s, and they are the main way Pikmin propagate. | ||
The pellets come in different sizes (1, 5, 10, and 20) and colors (matching the colors of the [[Onion]]s). These differences determine the number of Pikmin produced when the pellet is collected. Some Posies' pellets change color at regular intervals, in a similar way to [[Queen Candypop Bud]]s; the color is fixed when the Posy is destroyed, making it possible for the player to choose which to collect. The order that the color cycles is always the chronological order that the Pikmin are discovered. In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' and {{p2}}, this cycle goes red, yellow, blue. In {{p3}}, the order is red, gray, yellow, pink, blue. Using [[glitches]] or [[sequence breaks]] to discover Onions in a different order in any game has no effect on the cycles. | The pellets come in different sizes (1, 5, 10, and 20) and colors (matching the colors of the [[Onion]]s).

Some Pellet Posies might be constantly shifting colors. If you want to get a specific pellet, some advice is to select Rock Pikmin (or the strongest Pikmin you have on you), wait until the pellet is the color you want, and throw the Pikmin. For the most part the Pikmin will be fast enough at getting the pellet to avoid it shifting color. Another way is to observe the order that the pellet’s colors shift in and for how long the pellet stays one color. This way you can time your throw to get the pellet on the right color. | Some Pellet Posies might be constantly shifting colors.
