Fire geyser

Fire geysers are holes that protrude from a surface and spew columns of fire at regular intervals. Unlike water geysers, fire geysers are harmful to Pikmin that are not Red Pikmin, and they also damage unprotected leaders. In some fanon games, fire geysers may be active at all times, and embedded within bramble gates or stick bridges, necessitating the use of Red Pikmin to respectively destroy or build them.

In, fire geysers can not be destroyed. In, fire geysers are damageable by any Pikmin type, and if destroyed, will permanently stop ejecting fire. In, fire geysers act like those in Pikmin 1, except they are visible only while shooting fire. In, fire geysers are very large and can be found on both floors and ceilings.

In Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers
Fire geysers in Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers are similar to how they are in. Some of them are perpetually emitting flames, requiring Red Pikmin to get through them exclusively.

In Pikmin V
Fire geysers in Pikmin V now spew fire continuously, preventing destruction by non-Red Pikmin. Alongside regular fire geysers, new fire burners are introduced that are indestructible. The only way to deactivate them and allow passage is to find a valve to shut off the burner.
