Each Pikmin's maximum speed becomes almost as fast as flowered [[White Pikmin]], and the affected Pikmin gain a general increase in task speed, which affects their attack frequency, their efficiency when taking down [[gate]]s, constructing [[bridge]]s, and recovering from enemy attacks. After 40 seconds in ''Pikmin 2'' and 30 seconds in ''Pikmin 3'', all effects wear off. While the spray's effect can be extremely useful in many situations, caution should be observed, as [[Water|drowning]] Pikmin sprayed with an ultra-spicy spray will actually die more quickly than unsprayed Pikmin. In ''Pikmin 2'', [[Fire|burning]] and [[Poison|suffocating]] Pikmin will also perish sooner, but in the sequel, there is no difference for burning spicy Pikmin. | Each Pikmin's maximum speed becomes almost as fast as flowered [[White Pikmin]], and the affected Pikmin gain a general increase in task speed, which affects their attack frequency, their efficiency when taking down [[gate]]s, constructing [[bridge]]s, and recovering from enemy attacks.

All Pikmin become the same speed as a standard-typed flower Pikmin (i.e. Red, Yellow or Blue). If the effects of the spray wear off while the Pikmin are carrying the object, they will continue carrying at the same speed as if they were powered up, until they deliver the object or drop it. This makes this exploit particularly useful when retrieving the [[Doomsday Apparatus]]. In ''Pikmin 3'', because the Pikmin are actually upgraded to the flower stage, this exploit does not exist. | ||
If the spray button is pressed while there are no Pikmin in the current leader's party, nothing will happen, and no spray will be deducted from the total. If Pikmin are told to go inside an [[Onion]], they will lose their spicy status. | If the spray button is pressed while there are no Pikmin in the current leader's party, nothing will happen, and no spray will be deducted from the total.

Technically, any Pikmin type's attack power is changed to 10 (in both games), and their attack and [[obstacle]]-clearing speed increases to around 180%. This means that [[Red Pikmin|Red]], [[Purple Pikmin|Purple]], and [[Rock Pikmin]] experience a decrease in power, while [[Winged Pikmin]] benefit from being sprayed, as well as [[White Pikmin]] in ''Pikmin 3''. | Technically, any Pikmin type's attack power is changed to 10 (in both games), and their attack and [[obstacle]]-clearing speed increases to around 180%.
