Some forms of vegetation in PNF-404 are actually helpful or obstructive to the [[leader]]s and their Pikmin, and serve as important gameplay mechanics – some must be interacted with to complete the game. | Some forms of vegetation in PNF-404 are actually helpful or obstructive to the [[leader]]s and their Pikmin, and serve as important gameplay mechanics – some must be interacted with to complete the game. | ||
* '''{{icon|Pellet Posy}} [[Pellet Posy|Pellet Posies]]''' have a single pellet on top of their stem. When the plant is taken down, it releases the pellet inside, which can be brought to an [[Onion]]. This provides a safe way of increase Pikmin population without having to interact with enemies or their corpses. | * '''{{icon|Pellet Posy|v=P4}} [[Pellet Posy|Pellet Posies]]''' have a single pellet on top of their stem.

Drake]], can be used to brew [[spray]]s. These plants can generate several berries throughout the day, making them a good origin of sprays; they do, however, need some upkeep in order to remain a healthy and reliable source. | ||
* '''{{icon|Burgeoning Spiderwort mold|y}}s''' in {{p2}} suffocate Burgeoning Spiderworts and any Pellet Posies within their radii, rendering the plants inaccessible until the central molds are destroyed. | * '''{{icon|Burgeoning Spiderwort mold|y}}s''' in {{p2}} suffocate Burgeoning Spiderworts and any Pellet Posies within their radii, rendering the plants inaccessible until the central molds are destroyed. | ||

Some [[Enemy|enemies]] in the Pikmin world take advantage of the unassuming characteristics of flora and fungi in order to disguise themselves as common vegetation. This can be either a defensive or offensive mechanism, in that the disguise could serve as a way to hide from predators, or as a means for an ambush. In addition, some enemies also seem to be part plant or part fungus, much like how the Pikmin are part plant themselves. A list of enemies with these plant and fungus connections is as follows: | Some [[Enemy|enemies]] in the Pikmin world take advantage of the unassuming characteristics of flora and fungi in order to disguise themselves as common vegetation.
