 ==Traits and abilities==
 [[File:Rock Pikmin P3 resistance.jpg|thumb|left|150px|The Rock Pikmin showing their resistance to [[crushing]].]]
-Rock Pikmin, like most Pikmin types, are immune to a specific hazard, in this case [[blunt force]]. When crushed by a large object, they are simply driven into the ground and become partially buried temporarily. When a creature with a sharp proboscis tries to impale them, they are simply knocked back without taking damage. This immunity has been removed in {{hp}}, as proven by the [[Crystalline Crushblat]].
+Rock Pikmin, like most Pikmin types, are immune to specific hazards, in this case [[crush]]ing and [[stab]]bing. When crushed by a large object, they are simply driven into the ground and become partially buried temporarily. In {{p4}}, Rock Pikmin are only immune to crushing attacks when on soft surfaces such as dirt, and will crumble when crushed on hard surfaces.{{cite web|https://www.nintendo.com/jp/character/pikmin/book/rock_pikmin.html|原生生物図鑑 : 岩ピクミン|Nintendo|retrieved={{date|4|July|2023}}}} When a creature with a sharp proboscis tries to impale them, they are simply knocked back without taking damage. Rock Pikmin's immunity to crushing is absent entirely in {{hp}}.
-Rock Pikmin have very hard exteriors, which allows them to smash through [[crystal wall]]s, standalone [[crystal]]s, and even the armor of larger animals (like the [[Armored Mawdad]] and the [[Peckish Aristocrab]]'s claw). However, they do not sink in water, and are [[throw]]n just as far as most Pikmin types, revealing that they do not weigh much.
+Rock Pikmin have very hard exteriors, which allows them to smash through [[crystal wall]]s, standalone [[crystal]]s, and even the armor of larger animals (like the [[Armored Mawdad]] and the [[Peckish Aristocrab]]'s claw). However, they do not sink in water and are [[throw]]n just as far as most Pikmin types, revealing that they do not weigh much.
-This hardness causes Rock Pikmin to behave very differently in [[combat]] to other types. When thrown towards an [[enemy]] or [[obstacle]], they will bounce off and roll backwards. This deals a large amount of damage that depends on the creature, but it can be enough to defeat some smaller enemies, like [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]]s or [[Skutterchuck]]s, in a single hit. Since they cannot latch onto enemies, they will repeatedly attack enemies and obstacles by charging head-on into them, rolling backwards, and getting up again, doing less damage over time than other Pikmin types due to the lower attack rate, despite the fact that each hit done in this way causes 20 points of damage, more than any type per attack. In the original ''Pikmin 3'', when Rock Pikmin are told to [[charge]], they cause even less damage when they lunge, serving only 10 points of damage, but only on the first hit, as subsequent hits cause 20 damage again.

In ''Pikmin 4'' Rock Pikmin instead deal a uniform 40 damage against most enemies. This makes them far more effective at charge attacks and gives them comparable damage over time to standard Pikmin types. They also seem to now jump higher when performing their attacks, making them effective against elevated targets like the [[Bloomcap Bloyster]], the [[Peckish Aristocrab]] (even after it extends its legs) and even the eyes of the [[Bug-Eyed Crawmad]].
-As such, the best way to attack with Rock Pikmin is to have [[leader]]s throw them, which causes more damage than a regular lunge, and to [[whistle]] them to get up from lying down faster. That said, if they are thrown at the root of a [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] and not directly on its berries, are told to attack the [[Shaggy Long Legs]]'s hair, or are attacking another Pikmin in [[Bingo Battle]], they will cling on like the other Pikmin types, and they won't lunge (they will lunge when attacking a leader in Bingo Battle, though).

Curiously, in Pikmin 4 Rock Pikmin will fall after making a single strong attack if they cling on to these targets, this attack is strong enough to be capable of immediately picking a Burgeoning Spiderwort berry and seems to come with the possibility of "missing" and dealing no damage at all. They can also now damage the [[Baldy Long Legs]] this way.

 ===Discovery===
 [[File:Rock onion crystal.jpeg|thumb|200px|The Rock Onion encased in crystal.]]
-In {{p3}}, the Rock Pikmin are discovered in the [[Garden of Hope]], and are the second type discovered. They are found in a cave located north of the landing site. Residing in this cave is a [[Medusal Slurker]] that contains 6 Rock Pikmin. After defeating it, the player can use the newly-discovered Pikmin species to free the [[Rock Onion]] from a [[large crystal]]. After propagating some more Rock Pikmin, they can be used to break down the crystal wall outside of the cave and free [[Brittany]]. At the end of the day, the Rock Onion will merge with the Red Onion. Interestingly, a few of the Rock Pikmin inside the Slurker will have a [[Maturity|bud]] on top of their stem while others will have the usual leaf.

-===Mandatory uses===
+===Required uses===
-{{todo|Finish the list for mandatory and recommended uses.}}
+Rock Pikmin are required to be used to complete the following tasks, and there are no glitches or exploits that allow other Pikmin types to do so.
-In order to progress further into the game, at least one Rock Pikmin is mandatory to have in the player's party, so the following tasks can be completed:
 *Fruits
-**{{icon|Searing Acidshock|y}} ([[Garden of Hope]]): One of the two in the area is inside of a crystal.
+**{{icon|Face Wrinkler|y}} ([[Garden of Hope]]): A [[crystal wall]] directly blocks access to this fruit, and no bomb rocks are present in the area.
+**{{icon|Searing Acidshock|y}} (Garden of Hope, inside the crystal): This fruit is encased in a [[crystal]], and no bomb rocks are present in the area.
+**{{icon|Sunseed Berry|y|v=FF}} (Garden of Hope, near the fragments): Same as the Face Wrinkler.
 *Enemies
 **{{icon|Quaggled Mireclops|y}}: The crystal on the head must be destroyed to finish the first phase of the battle.
 *Other
-**Rock Pikmin Onion: As stated above, their Onion is encased in a crystal that needs to be destroyed in order to release it.
+**[[Brittany]]: To rescue Brittany, a crystal wall must be destroyed with Rock Pikmin.
+**Northern section of the [[Garden of Hope]]: A crystal wall blocks this section of the area with 4 fruits and a [[boss]], but since the wall is so close to the landing site, this wall will not be counted for the items it blocks.
+===Near-required uses===
+The following tasks are intended to be completed with Rock Pikmin, but it is technically possible to complete them without Rock Pikmin, by using alternate strategies, exploits, or [[bomb rock]]s.
+*Fruits
+**{{icon|Blonde Impostor|y}}: This fruit is encased in a crystal. It is possible to destroy the crystal with bomb rocks.
+**{{icon|Dapper Blob|y}} ([[Twilight River]]): This fruit is encased in a crystal. It is possible to destroy the crystal with bomb rocks.
+**{{icon|Disguised Delicacy|y|v=FF}} ([[Distant Tundra]]): This fruit is encased in a crystal. It is possible to destroy the crystal with [[bomb rock]]s.
+**{{icon|Fire-Breathing Feast|y}}: This piece of fruit is located inside the [[Armored Mawdad]]. Although leaders can defeat the creature by punching it (even with its armor), using Rock Pikmin is much faster.
+**{{icon|Searing Acidshock|y}} ([[Tropical Wilds]]): This fruit is inside a [[Calcified Crushblat]], and while [[Grey Candypop Bud]]s are nearby, it's possible to avoid using them.
+**{{icon|Sunseed Berry|y|v=FF}} (Distant Tundra): This fruit is in a section of the area behind a [[crystal wall]]. It's possible to enter the arena from above and use [[Winged Pikmin]] to carry the fruit, or to use [[bomb rock]]s to destroy the wall.
+**{{icon|Zest Bomb|y}} (Distant Tundra): This fruit is encased in a crystal. It is possible to destroy the crystal with bomb rocks.
+*Enemies
+**{{icon|Armored Mawdad|y}}: Rock Pikmin are needed to destroy the crystal armor, but the creature can be defeated if leaders punch it. Doing this is very slow.
+**{{icon|Calcified Crushblat|y}}: Although the creature is covered in crystal, a [[bomb rock]] can destroy the crystal. Alternatively, [[Winged Pikmin]] can [[charge]] at its feet, removing the need to take out the crystal.
+*Obstacles
+**{{icon|Crystal wall|y}}: Crystal walls can be destroyed with bomb rocks, but it is much easier and more efficient to use Rock Pikmin.
+**{{icon|Large crystal|y|l=Crystal|n=Crystal}}: Like crystal walls, it is much easier and more efficient to use Rock Pikmin instead of bomb rocks.
 ===Recommended uses===

+Rock Pikmin are not required to complete the following tasks, but they are recommended as they make the task easier.
 *Fruits
-**{{icon|Fire-Breathing Feast|y}}: This piece of fruit is located inside the [[Armored Mawdad]]. Although leaders can defeat the creature by punching it (even with its armor), using Rock Pikmin is much faster.
+**{{icon|Scaly Custard|y}} ([[Garden of Hope]]): This fruit is held by a Peckish Aristocrab, so Rock Pikmin make it easier to obtain.
-**{{icon|Disguised Delicacy|y|v=FF}} ([[Distant Tundra]]): This fruit is encased in a crystal. It is possible to destroy the crystal with [[bomb rock]]s.
-**{{icon|Zest Bomb|y}} (Distant Tundra): This fruit can be found inside a crystal. Bomb rocks could also be used to destroy it.
-**{{icon|Dapper Blob|y}} ([[Twilight River]]): This fruit is encased in a crystal and guarded by two [[Yellow Wollywog]]s. However, bomb rocks can be used to destroy the crystal and other Pikmin types can defeat the Yellow Wollywogs.
-**{{icon|Blonde Impostor|y}}: This fruit is encased in a crystal. However, bomb rocks can be used to destroy it.
-**{{icon|Searing Acidshock|y}} ([[Tropical Wilds]]):The one in Tropical Wilds is inside a [[Calcified Crushblat]].
 *Enemies
-**{{icon|Yellow Wollywog|y|v=P3}}: This enemy's only attack is crushing Pikmin, which Rock Pikmin are immune to.
 **{{icon|Joustmite|y}}: This enemy's only attack is stabbing Pikmin, which Rock Pikmin are immune to.
-**{{icon|Armored Mawdad|y}}: Rock Pikmin are needed to destroy the crystal armor, but the creature can be defeated if leaders punch it.
+**{{icon|Peckish Aristocrab|y}}: The claw can be destroyed to make it unable to eat Pikmin, but this is not necessary. In ''Pikmin 4'', the claw can be destroyed by any type, and Rock Pikmin are not more efficient at destroying it. They can, however, be used to charge the Peckish Aristocrab.
-**{{icon|Calcified Crushblat|y}}: Although the creature is covered in crystal, a [[bomb rock]] can destroy it. On top of that, [[Winged Pikmin]] can [[charge]] at its feet, removing the need to take out the crystal.
-**{{icon|Peckish Aristocrab|y}}: The claw can be destroyed to make it unable to eat Pikmin, but this is not necessary.
 **{{icon|Plasm Wraith|y}}: The crystal [[Plasm Wraith#Elemental Plasms|Elemental Plasms]] it releases can be destroyed by Rock Pikmin, but destroying them is not needed to win the fight. Its main attack, where it stabs and eats Pikmin, will not affect Rock Pikmin.
-**{{icon|Skutterchuck|y}}: The [[crystal nodules]] it uses to attack can be destroyed to make the enemy more harmless.
+**{{icon|Skutterchuck|y}}: With Rock Pikmin, this enemy can be defeated with 2 quick throws, and the type is also immune from being crushed by the [[crystal nodules]].
+**{{icon|Yellow Wollywog|y|v=P3}}: This enemy's only attack is crushing Pikmin, which Rock Pikmin are immune to.
 **{{icon|Shaggy Long Legs|y}}: Rock Pikmin are extremely helpful in this fight as they are immune to being crushed and they can climb up the Shaggy Long Legs.
 *Obstacles
-**{{icon|Crystal wall|y}}: Crystal walls can be destroyed with bomb rocks, but it is much easier and more efficient to use Rock Pikmin.
+**{{icon|Dirt wall|y}}: Rock Pikmin are faster at destroying these walls than any other Pikmin type.{{cite youtube|FM3KNYA4YxA|showing the time it takes for different Pikmin types to destroy a dirt wall}}
-**{{icon|Large crystal|y|l=Crystal|n=Crystal}}: Like crystal walls, it is much easier and more efficient to use Rock Pikmin instead of bomb rocks.
+==In ''Pikmin 4''==
+===Discovery===
+In {{p4}}, the earliest Rock Pikmin can be found in the [[Kingdom of Beasts]] cave found in the [[Blossoming Arcadia]] on its second sublevel. They can be used to break the [[Crystal wall]] blocking the entrance to the next sublevel and the [[Ambiguous Goo]]. Additonally, Rock Pikmin can be found in the [[Frozen Inferno]], [[Plunder Palace]] and the [[Cradle of the Beast]]. The Onion for the Rock Pikmin can be found in the [[Giant's Hearth]], guarded by a [[Sovereign Bulblax]].

-*There is no set amount of damage when they are thrown, as the game only counts the total amount of direct Rock Pikmin impacts needed to kill a creature (refer to each enemy article's "Technical information" section for more information). When calculating their damage output throughout the different creatures in the game, they cause an average of about 57 damage.

+**{{icon|Armored Cannon Larva|v=P4|y}}: The boulders shot from the [[Lithopod]] crush all Pikmin except Rock Pikmin.
+**{{icon|Horned Cannon Beetle|v=P4|y}}: Like the previous Lithopod, Rock Pikmin are immune to the boulders.
+**{{icon|Mama Sheargrub|v=P4|y}}: Rock Pikmin are immune to being crushed under the Mama Sheargrub's jump.
+**{{icon|Joustmite|v=P4|y}}: The Joustmite attacks by stabbing with its proboscis, which Rock Pikmin are immune to.
+**{{icon|Flighty Joustmite|v=P4|y}}: The Flighty Joustmite also attacks with its proboscis which Rock Pikmin are immune to.
+**{{icon|Baldy Long Legs|v=P4|y}}: Rock Pikmin are immune to being crushed by the Baldy Long Legs' feet.
+**{{icon|Groovy Long Legs|v=P4|y}}: Rock Pikmin are also immune to being crushed by the Groovy Long Legs' feet, but not its [[Endless Dance]] hazard.
+**{{icon|Skutterchuck|v=P4|y}}: These enemies throw [[Crystal nodules]] which crush all Pikmin except Rock Pikmin.
+**{{icon|Mammoth Snootwhacker|v=P4|y}}: One of its attacks involve slamming its trunk down, which crushes all Pikmin except Rock Pikmin.
+**{{icon|Scorchcake|v=P4|y}}: Rock Pikmin are only immune to being crushed by the non-fiery side of the Scorchcake, the fiery side will kill them.
+**{{icon|Shockcake|v=P4|y}}: Like it’s fiery counterpart, the non-electric side won’t crush Rock Pikmin but the electric side can.
+**{{icon|Freezecake|v=P4|y}}: Same as the previous two [[Shellcake family|Shellcake]]s, the non-iced side won’t crush Rock Pikmin and the iced side will.
+**{{icon|Porquillion|v=P4|y}}: The spikes from the Porquillion are sharp and only Rock Pikmin are immune to them.
+**{{icon|Yellow Wollyhop|v=P4|y}}: The Yellow Wollyhop can crush all Pikmin except the Rock Pikmin.
+**{{icon|Wollyhop|v=P4|y}}: Like it’s yellow counterpart, only Rock Pikmin are immune to its attack.

-Interestingly enough, when charging towards a [[gate]], a Rock Pikmin will deal the same amount of damage as when thrown.
+*Other
+**{{icon|Crystal wall|y}}: These wall can be destroyed with the use of [[Bomb Rock]]s, but are more easily destroyed by Rock Pikmin.
 ==In ''Hey! Pikmin''==
 ===Discovery===
-{{game help|hp|Describe the first discovery of Rock Pikmin.}}
+In {{hp}}, Rock Pikmin are first encountered in [[Crystal Tunnels]]. After getting his main path blocked by a [[Crystalline Crushblat]], Olimar is forced to enter an alternate path that follows a vertical section, with several large sloped [[crystal]]s that make him and his [[squad]] slowly fall downwards. When seeing his path completely blocked by a crystal wall, some Rock Pikmin at the other side spot him and, in a [[cutscene]], break the crystal to help him continue, just before ultimately joining his team. Various other Rock Pikmin can be obtained throughout the area, and after getting to the end, all of them will migrate to the [[Pikmin Park]], officially unlocking Rock Pikmin.
 ===Uses===
 {{game help|hp|Write a list of the levels requiring Rock Pikmin.}}
+==In ''Pikmin Bloom''==
+In {{pb}}, Rock Pikmin are the seventh and final Pikmin type unlocked, at [[level]] 11. Their [[seedling]]s require a minimum of 5 carrying strength to be retrieved, along with 5000 steps to grow. In [[expedition]]s, they have a carrying strength of 3 and a [[Expedition#Speed|time modifier]] of 1.25. In [[mushroom battle]]s, they have a base [[Mushroom battle#Attack power|attack power]] of 5 and are the only Pikmin that can battle Crystal Mushrooms.

+{{transcript|Rock Pikmin may be rugged and craggy in appearance, but their well-polished skin is cool and smooth to the touch. Those dark, shiny stone bodies are built for defense, and they're capable attackers too. And did you notice those stubby little legs? Aren't they the cutest!|block=y}}
+===Olimar's Notes===
+{{transcript|This species is definitely a member of the Pikmin genus, but its body does not share any of the plant-like traits that Pikmin are known for. Instead, it's composed primarily of stone.
+The stone is actually the chosen host for a parasitic subset of Pikmin species nicknamed "Hermikmin." Similar to how a seed can sprout and push through the cracks of a rock, the Pikmin's roots stretch deep into the stone, storing its vital organs in an interior cavity that resembles a crystal geode.
+Because this species displays characteristics common in parasitism, one could hypothesize that the Rock Onion and Rock Candypop Bud stockpile stone that will eventually host the Rock Pikmin.|block=y}}

+As with Pikmin 3, Rock Pikmin's [[Health|damage]] depends on the circumstances of their [[Combat|attack]], although they have been drastically reworked:
+*Typically, they deal 40 damage as a standard when lunging by themselves or when commanded to [[charge]] at most targets.
+*Some large enemies, such as the [[Horned Cannon Beetle]] and the [[Empress Bulblax]], have a resistance to Rock Pikmin's lunging headbutts, taking around half the usual damage
+*As with Pikmin 3, when thrown directly at an enemy Rock Pikmin will deal damage on a "hits to kill" statistic that differs from creature to creature, dealing similar damage this way as they did in Pikmin 3 while ignoring the defense boost granted to enemies frozen by [[Ice Pikmin]] or [[Ice Blast|Ice Blasts]]. Notably, this will almost always deal less damage than a slam from a [[Purple Pikmin]], which works similarly. An exception to this is the eyes of the [[Bug-Eyed Crawmad]] which take more damage from Rock Pikmin.
+*When [[Rush|rushing]] with [[Oatchi]], rock pikmin use the same "hits to kill" statistic as they do when thrown at enemies directly, typically dealing a large chunk of damage all at once.
+*When rushing frozen enemies with Rock Pikmin in this way, the Rock Pikmin can deal increased damage depending on the enemy. This bonus damage does not apply when Rock Pikmin are thrown, only when included in a rush. For example, the [[Horned Cannon Beetle]] will take around double the damage it typically takes from Rock Pikmin impacts, meaning 100 Rock Pikmin rushing on Oatchi can defeat these beasts in one rush.

-==Names in other languages==
+*Similar to [[Ice Pikmin]], Rock Pikmin are referred to as parasitic. It is implied that they both belong to the same parasitic subset of Pikmin, known as "Hermikmin", which store their organs inside blocky, solid surfaces, although only this is only stated outright for Rock Pikmin. It would be inaccurate to label either of them as parasites however, as they simply use an inanimate object as a vessel—similar to their subset's namesake, the hermit crab—and do not rely on other organisms.
-{{Foreignname
+*Rock Pikmin and objects associated with them are often referred to as being black or gray, but names used in-game are always preceded with the word "Rock". The only instance in any game that refers to a Rock Pikmin-related object by color is the Gray [[Seedling]]s in ''Pikmin Bloom''.
