'''Spotcaps''' ({{j|コマダラタケ|Ko Madara Take|Small Spotted Mushroom}}) and '''Kingcaps''' ({{j|マダラタケ|Madara Take|Spotted Mushroom}}) are two types of fungus in {{p3}} that serves as a [[obstacle]]s. Because they are usually found in tight groups, they can block passageways. The [[leader]]s must then use their [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to destroy the obstructions and clear the path. The differences between the two fungi are their sizes and methods of destruction.

The '''Spotcap''' is the smallest fungus, with varying sizes near those of a leader. If a Pikmin is [[Charge|issued]] to attack a Spotcap, they'll pummel it for a bit, until it shrivels up and disappears, but if a Pikmin is [[throw]]n straight towards its top, it will crush the fungus and destroy it straight away. In addition, there is another mushroom similar to the Spotcap that is completely brown, cannot be [[lock-on|locked-onto]], and also disappears if a Pikmin is thrown on top of it. The two function similarly, and while the latter is not given a name, it is assumed to be another form of Spotcap, or at least closely related to it. In ''Pikmin 3'', these plain mushrooms can sometimes release [[data file]]s though in {{p3d}} all data files the corresponding Spotcaps once held are instead found nearby.

The '''Kingcap''' is a giant version of the Spotcap. It has a lot more durability, and occupies more space, but once cleared, opens up more significant space. Unlike the Spotcaps, Pikmin can latch on to it when thrown, and it has a [[HUD#Health wheel|health wheel]].

Spotcaps (コマダラタケ?, lit.: "Small Spotted Mushroom") are a type of fungus in Pikmin 3 that serve as obstacles. They are usually found in tight groups and typically near Kingcaps, so they typically block passageways. Some Spotcaps however can be found by themselves, out of the way. Leaders can use their Pikmin to destroy Spotcaps.

Spotcaps have varying sizes, near those of a leader. If a Pikmin is issued to attack a Spotcap, they'll pummel it for a bit, until it shrivels up and disappears, but if a Pikmin is thrown straight towards its top, it will crush the fungus and destroy it straight away. In addition, there is another mushroom similar to the Spotcap that is completely brown, cannot be locked-onto, and also disappears if a Pikmin is thrown on top of it. The two function similarly, and while the latter is not given a name, it is assumed to be another form of Spotcap, or at least closely related to it. In Pikmin 3, these plain mushrooms can sometimes release data files though in Pikmin 3 Deluxe all data files the corresponding Spotcaps once held are instead found nearby.

Trivia

  • Spotcaps and Kingcaps share many similarities to Dwarf Bulborbs, and Bulborbs, respectively. Spotcaps and Dwarf Bulborbs each have 100 health, while Kingcaps and Bulborbs each have 1000. Both are red with white spots, and both Spotcaps and Dwarf Bulborbs instantly get defeated when hit on top.
