Purple Pikmin can lift ten times as much as other Pikmin types and weigh ten times more. As a result, they are [[throw]]n at a lower arc, and are not affected by the windy attacks of the [[Puffy Blowhog]]. Their massive weight causes a strong impact when they land on enemies, with a chance of stunning them temporarily. They also do not panic when encountering [[Mitite]]s or hearing the roar of [[Emperor Bulblax]]es. Their weight, however, slows them down a lot, even as flowers. Purples cannot move as quickly as other Pikmin types, and move even slower when carrying items. This can result in a player accidentally leaving a Purple Pikmin behind, especially in leaf | Purple Pikmin can lift ten times as much as other Pikmin types and weigh ten times more.

As such, Purple Pikmin excel in carrying and while battling, as when thrown, they will land with a resounding thump, stunning and seriously injuring larger [[Enemy|beasts]], and fatally injuring smaller, more fragile creatures such as [[Shearwig]]s and [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s. In addition, they do not need to be precisely thrown at their target, as a small homing system will swerve the Pikmin's fall and make it land on a nearby enemy. Most enemies have a one in three chance of being stunned, and most of them stay stunned for a full five seconds. Some [[Enemy#Boss|bosses]] are harder to stun, or may not be stunned at all. This strong landing destroys [[eggs]] immediately, defeats Mitites in a wide radius, and can instantly deactivate [[fire geyser]]s and [[electrical wire]]s. This, combined with the naturally strong impact damage, makes Purple Pikmin the strongest Pikmin to use in a fight. | As such, Purple Pikmin excel in carrying and while battling, as when thrown, they will land with a resounding thump, stunning and seriously injuring larger [[Enemy|beasts]], and fatally injuring smaller, more fragile creatures such as [[Shearwig]]s and [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s.
