Cyan Pikmin

The Cyan Pikmin is a Pikmin with light-blue skin whose leaf is green like the other Pikmin, although it is also slightly more blue because its leaf has a different method of storing water. When it moves to strike a metal target, small bits of specially-pressurized water shower the metal target, rusting it so it can be broken apart. In addition, Cyan Pikmin can siphon water out of an icy target, eliminating piles of snow or icy surfaces. Cyan Pikmin are also resistant to blasts of freezing air. Their flowers are blue and they can only be grown in Water Candypop Buds.

Special Notice
Cyan pikmin are, while non-canon, is widely accepted as pseudo-canon. Many people who write fanon, and the Pikmin Wars community, accept this for any Ice Resistance needed.

Rapid Growth
If buried Cyan Pikmin sprouts are showered by water of some sort, they will quickly become flower Pikmin.

DP Sequel
