'''Violet Candypop Buds''' are purple Candypop Buds found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. They behave just like any other [[Candypop family|Candypop bud]], but when non-purple [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are [[throw]]n in, they will change into Purple Pikmin. Candypops are the only method of obtaining [[White Pikmin|White]] and [[Purple Pikmin]]. If Purple Pikmin are thrown in, they will be reverted to leaf stages, and don't count against the five Pikmin limit per Candypop Bud. | '''Violet Candypop Buds''' are purple Candypop Buds found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''.

The following is a list of all the locations of Violet Candypop Buds in each game. In ''Pikmin 2'', if a player collects five Purple Pikmin from each plant encountered as they go along, they will be able to nearly reach 100. However, if a player wishes to build their number of Purple Pikmin later, choosing the right cave will greatly speed up the process. [[Subterranean Complex]] is recommended if the player first needs more Pikmin to convert, as [[Queen Candypop Buds]] are present. However, if a player doesn't need or want to grow more Pikmin, such as in a [[103-Pikmin run]], [[Bulblax Kingdom]] would be the fastest option. One should note that many Violet Candypop Buds disappear after the player's total amount of Purples has reached 20. Using [[Bulbmin]] is also convenient for growing purples, such as in [[Submerged Castle]], where Purples are needed to defeat the boss – the [[Waterwraith]]. | |||
