'''Violet Candypop Buds''' ({{j|ムラサキポンガシグサ|Murasaki Pongashi Gusa|Purple Puffed Grain Weed}}) 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]]. Candypop Buds are the only method of obtaining [[White Pikmin]] and [[Purple Pikmin]]. If Purple Pikmin are thrown in, they will be reverted to leaf [[Maturity|stages]], and don't count against the five Pikmin limit per Candypop Bud. This plant is essential to the completion of ''Pikmin 2'', as collecting the heaviest treasure, the [[Doomsday Apparatus]], requires 100 Purple Pikmin.

This plant reappears in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' but is one of the rarest Candypop Buds in the game, with only one appearing in [[Mission Mode]]'s [[Thirsty Desert]], and four in [[Bingo Battle]]'s [[Blooming Terrace]].

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, without repeating caves, 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 [[101 Pikmin run]], [[Bulblax Kingdom]] would be the fastest option. To note that many Violet Candypop Buds disappear after the player's total amount of Purple Pikmin has reached 20, as explained [[Candypop family#Maximum Pikmin requirement|here]]. Using [[Bulbmin]] is also convenient for growing Purple Pikmin, such as in [[Submerged Castle]], where Purple Pikmin are needed to defeat the boss – the [[Waterwraith]].
