In Pikmin 5: Adventure Awaits
Crystal Pikmin appear in Pikmin 5: Adventure Awaits as the twelfth Pikmin type to be discovered. Their Onion is initially trapped in an Arachnode's web, and freeing it allows access to Crystal Pikmin. Crystal Pikmin are resistant to hallucinations.

In Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds
Ultima Pikmin appear in Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds, found on the hidden one hundred first sublevel in the Chasm of Challenges through their respective candypop bud, the Power Candypop Bud. They are resistant to every hazard except being eaten or falling into an abyss. Ultima Pikmin have the same appearance as they do in Pikmin: Redemption, but have a nose, mouth-gills, and ears, and also have a carrying capacity of fifteen and the speed of a White Pikmin.

Although a maximum of twenty-five Ultima Pikmin may exist at a time, there is a to circumvent the limit. On the fifth visit to the Chasm of Challenges, when twenty Ultima Pikmin are in one's possession, throw only four Pikmin into the Power Candypop Bud. Only twenty-four Ultima Pikmin will be in existence, but they will contribute to having twenty-nine of them. When the one hundred first sublevel is visited again, a Power Candypop Bud will be there. Transforming five Pikmin will result in there being twenty-nine Ultima Pikmin in existence.

In Pikmin: Echoes of Eternity
Crystal Pikmin appear in Pikmin: Echoes of Eternity, returning from Pikmin: Redemption, but as a Pikmin rather than a playable character. They are resistant to being crushed and can destroy crystals.

In Pikmin: Gold/Silver/Bronze
Crystal Pikmin in Pikmin: Gold/Silver/Bronze are almost the same as they are in Pikmin: Redemption. Crystal Pikmin are discovered after the defeat of the game's final boss, although there is a cheat that must be inputted as well.

In Pikmin: Pikmin: Redemption
The Crystal Pikmin is not actually a type of Pikmin, but is what the main character becomes in Pikmin: Redemption after getting all of the Pikmins' powers. It is gained by finding the Morphing Candypop Bud and jumping into it. It is a clear, crystalline Pikmin with a green leaf or white petals on its bud or flower. If light were to shine on a Crystal Pikmin, all the other colors of the rainbow, or in this case, the colors of the Pikmin in Pikmin: Redemption, would shine from the other side. As special as the Crystal Pikmin appears, it has no outstanding abilities outside of using its flower to blind enemies temporarily or activate certain switches. As Pikmin types can still be switched between, there is no need to worry about not being able to go back.

In Pikmin: Shadow Planet
Crystal Pikmin appear in Pikmin: Shadow Planet as the eighth Pikmin discovered. They are found in the Grand Forest. They are almost invisible and can sneak past even the most perceptive enemies without being seen. They are also as lightweight as Yellow Pikmin and can be thrown as far as them.
