Rock Pikmin are a new species of Pikmin featured in Pikmin 3. They are slow and simply appear to be rocks with pikmin's eyes, limbs, and violet flowers, just like the Pink Pikmin. However the "rock" is most likely a hard outer shell, and seems to be haollow (other than than the pikmin's vital organs). They also seem to not be able to lay down like the red pikmin do when idle, in the video the just stand, they don't even sit. The 'skin' on the arms and legs of Rock Pikmin appears grey or black. When Rock Pikmin are dismissed, their sprouts glow gray.
Abilities
Rock Pikmin have rock-hard bodies; they are capable of smashing and chipping away glass and crystaline barriers with ease.
They appear to be able to carry the same normal capacity as any other Pikmin. Despite their strength, they have a setback; Rock Pikmin cannot latch onto their targets, as they bounce off and roll back. Instead, they will repeatedly attack enemies by charging headlong into them.[1]
It can be assumed that they are somewhat similar to the Purple Pikmin, at least in terms of girth and size. The Captains have no issue throwing the Rock Pikmin, leading to the assumption that Rock Pikmin are rocklike due to their durability, not weight. Due to their unique properties, it could be assumed they would be very useful, if not vital, in certain combat situations, such as breaking off the armor of the Armored Mawdad.
