{{game help|p3}}
A '''Seeding Dandelion''' ({{j|タンポポ(綿毛)|Tanpopo (Watage)|Dandelion (Fluff)}}) is a [[Dandelion]] which has flowered for long enough to be pollinated and produce a batch of fresh seeds, each attached to a fluffy white tuft. The tufts catch the wind and the seeds are swept from the plant so that they may land and take root in a new location. Seeding Dandelions can be found as scenery interactable plants in {{p2}} and {{p3}}, but as important gameplay mechanics in {{hp}}. In ''Pikmin 3'', normal Dandelions evolve as the days progress, until they finally turn into Seeding Dandelions. These plants also appear in the Spring-themed levels of {{pa}}, where one can occasionally hide a coin.

In {{hp}}, Seeding Dandelions are not much taller than the Pikmin themselves, and they serve as a stopping point for Pikmin. When Pikmin are [[throw]]n in this game, they either walk towards a [[treasure]], or walk back to [[Captain Olimar]]'s side. If the player needs thrown Pikmin to stay in a certain spot until they are [[Whistle|called]], chances are a Seeding Dandelion will be there. As per the [[cutscene]] near the start of the [[Pollution Pool]], when a Pikmin noticed a bed of Seeding Dandelions, it cannot resist the urge to jump right on top of the plants and bounce around. These plants also play a big role in the very same area, where Captain Olimar needs to keep the Pikmin busy in a different platform while he himself swims through a pond or builds a [[bridge]], so that he may call them on the other side when he's ready.

Despite being introduced as a gameplay mechanic in Pollution Pool, Seeding Dandelions first appear in [[Back-and-Forth Road]] at the start, where the player is tasked with whistling some Pikmin bouncing on the plant, and can't interact with it in any other way.
