The Pikmin ones roughly resemble a Pikmin's shape; however, they lack a leaf, bud or flower, don't have feet, and are missing any identifying characteristics such as the Red Pikmin's nose. Their appearance is slightly transparent and details vary between the games. In {{p1}}, every Pikmin has a blue soul, irrelevant of the color of the Pikmin itself, while souls in all other ''Pikmin'' games, including both ''[[New Play Control!]]'' remakes, are representative of the dead Pikmin's type, differing in color and slightly in shape. | The Pikmin ones roughly resemble a Pikmin's shape; however, they lack a leaf, bud or flower, don't have feet, and are missing any identifying characteristics such as the Red Pikmin's nose.

If a Pikmin dies from being thrown into the abyss, it won't release any soul in {{p1}} or {{npcp1}}, but it will in {{p2}} and {{npcp2}}. In {{p3}}, no soul will be seen ascending from the abyss but it will actually be visible on the [[radar]]. The fact that souls appear in the radar is particularly important during [[replay]]s, since they show players where and when Pikmin had died. | If a Pikmin dies from being thrown into the abyss, it won't release any soul in {{p1}} or {{npcp1}}, but it will in {{p2}} and {{npcp2}}.

In general, Pikmin souls are used as icons in [[menu]]s and [[HUD]]s to represent Pikmin that have died. | In general, Pikmin souls are used as icons in [[menu]]s and [[HUD]]s to represent Pikmin that have died. | ||
