In {{p2}}, Pikpik carrots are seen in the in-game [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]]. These can be thrown at the Piklopedia's enemies and plants to see their reactions, such as the creature moving or waking up, or eating and attacking the carrots. The creatures will usually treat the carrots like [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. Carrots are also mentioned by Louie in his notes on the [[Emperor Bulblax]]. | In {{p2}}, Pikpik carrots are seen in the in-game [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]].

In ''[[The Night Juicer]]'', one of the {{psm}}, Captain Olimar is juicing some pikpik carrots, although because of their resemblance to Pikmin, the Pikmin that are observing Olimar during this process get frightened, as they think that Olimar is killing Pikmin; although at the end it all comes out as a misunderstanding. | In ''[[The Night Juicer]]'', one of the {{psm}}, Captain Olimar is juicing some pikpik carrots, although because of their resemblance to Pikmin, the Pikmin that are observing Olimar during this process get frightened, as they think that Olimar is killing Pikmin; although at the end it all comes out as a misunderstanding. | ||
In ''[[Pikmin 4]]'', Pikpik Carrots are available as a usable item from The Lab. They can be thrown at creatures to distract them (like in ''Pikmin 2''{{'s}} Piklopedia), and their bitter taste will briefly immobilize any creature that eats one. They have no effect on enemies in the Piklopedia, as these pikpik carrots are normal, non-bitter ones. | In ''[[Pikmin 4]]'', Pikpik Carrots are available as a usable [[pack]] item from The Lab.

'''Golden Pikpik carrots''' are completely golden versions of Pikpik carrots. These are thought to be very valuable, and at the beginning of ''Pikmin 2'', [[Louie]] is instructed to deliver a cargo of them.
