In Pikmin Forever
The Red Sheltate Seagrop is a plant in Pikmin Forever that functions as shelter during rain, and is only present when it is raining so that its purpose is more easily understood. "Sheltate" is a portmanteau of "shelter", temporary protection from bad weather or danger, and "peltate", a tropical leaf known for its flat shield shape and extruded stem. It is based on the real-life, even using a similar genus name, and aged seagrape leaves can take on a red coloration. It is a flowering plant with very large, flat, red leaves, and stems that extend from the back of the leaves. These plants are passive and only their leaves are used for practical purposes. The tremendous leaves of a seagrop are large enough to shelter up to one hundred Pikmin, particularly ignited Red Pikmin, from rain. Up to two Pikmin can carry one leaf around after plucking it from the ground, and they keep up with the group and orient the leaf to shelter all Pikmin in it. Placing the leaves over fire sources allows them to dry and spout fire, and placing the leaves above wooden gates allows them to dry so that ignited Red Pikmin can bring them down. The leaf appears partially transparent when it obscures any Pikmin from view. Red Sheltate Seagrop sometimes produces small grapes, but they serve no purpose other than aesthetics.
