Blue Pikmin

These are the third type of Pikmin discovered in Pikmin, the fifth in Pikmin 2, and the fifth in "Pikmin 3" In Pikmin, they are located in the Forest Navel. In Pikmin 2, you can find them in the Awakening Wood. In "Pikmin 3", they, as well as Rock Pikmin, are found in the Garden Of Hope. Some think that they were meant to appear in a removed area that was going to occupy the section between Distant Tundra and Twilight River. Due to the fact that Pikmin 3 is based on Pangaea Ultima, a theoretical continent meant to appear about 24,000,000 years from now, it can be said that the removed area occupies what is currently known as Central America, or Latin America. They can breathe water because they have pink gills that look suspiciously like mouths.

Pikmin Overgrowth Timeline
Blue Pikmin are immune to drowning, have 1.0x the attack of a normal Pikmin, run average speed, and swim fast.

Pikmin 1
First, after you land in the Forest Navel, go down behind the Onions where there is a white wall. Break it down and go all the way down to where the blue Onion is buried in the ground. Break it open and use the Pellet Posies nearby to get a few blue pikmin.

Pikmin 2
Use Yellow Pikmin to break down the electric wall past two Cloaking Burrow-Nits, and then use the Wogpoles and Pelley Posies to get a few Blue Pikmin that can take back the Decorative Goo Behind the Onion.

Pikmin TCG
Blue Pikmin appear in the Pikmin 1 Card Set. Their ability is the ability to resist water damage.

Pikmin: Secret of the Earth
A Blue Pikmin is rumored to be the main character.

Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs
Blue Pikmin make a reappearance in Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs and are immune to water as they always were. They and their Blue Onion are found in the Marsh Territory of the Land of Wonders, in a deep pool that covers the entirety of it. The only of accessing Blue Pikmin is if the Electric Fence protecting them is destroyed with the use of Yellow Pikmin. Cyan Pikmin and not the same as Blue Pikmin; Cyan Pikmin are not immune to any kind of water. Multiple Pellets are scattered about near the Blue Onion for the Blue Pikmin to carry to their Onion for their population to grow.

Pikmin SP
The Blue Pikmin in Pikmin SP are like the pikmin from Pikmin 2. The onion is found in the middle of the Silent Spring, directly in the middle of the lake, guarded by 5 Sticky Dumples (Unfair placement! o.o). They can still be produced via azure and queen candypops.



In Pikmin Kart, Blue Pikmin are items that are found in item boxes commonly. You can throw them in front of your kart and they'll hitch on to a random kart in their range. They hold onto the opponent's kart longer than the the average Pikmin, and the driver of the Kart has to swerver wildly to shake them off, even more wildly than if another color was stuck on them. Blues also do not fall off if the driver drives into a body of water. As with all Pikmin items, the Whistle item can protect a player from Pikmin attacks and steal them for himself, so be careful who you throw them at!

Pikmin: Advanced Trilogy
Blue Pikmin appear as NPCs in all the three games in the trilogy. Also, according to legend, one of the Three Generals was a Blue Pikmin.

Pikmin: Invasion of the Giants
Blue Pikmin pros, cons, and abilities are all exactly the same as in Pikmin 2. They are the third type of Pikmin discovered in Pikmin: Invasion of the Giants

Elemental Pikmin
These are the Water element Pikmin.

Pikmin: The Winds of Light
Blue Pikmin are found at The Spring of Serenity in Pikmin: The Winds of Light. They have the same normal abilities.

Pikmin Forever
Blue Pikmin are the sixth type of Pikmin to join Olimar in Pikmin Forever (although technically, they are seen before Mushroom Pikmin), found in the Luxuriant Lakeside. They can still swim in water (they sink to the bottom of water bodies) and are immune to water jets, but now they can also drink water and store it for 30 seconds; they have a droplet around their stem to represent this effect. Blue Pikmin carry items faster in water, and storing water in their stems prolongs this trait outside of water bodies. Their stored water can also be deposited in obstacles like a sponge bridge.

Blue Pikmin posses the ability to survive in water. Thanks to their gills, they can enter and leave bodies of water without any problem, and water projectiles from traps or enemies have no effect towards them. They're the last to be discovered. They can swim, allowing them to swim up into areas above or attack enemies higher up in the water, in which then they act more like Winged Pikmin while swimming. Their flower's pedals have a white color to them. These Pikmin can also throw drowning Pikmin that are nearby, which they will only do if they're either idling or are commanded to do so.

"The best type when it comes to exploration due to how much water there is on this planet. Mysteriously, they have also learned to spit out water, from what I have seen from them. This may be the next evolutionary step happening right under our noses! Sadly, this ability has no real benefit, but maybe in the future, they'll get better at this, and it can become a massive help to them and us." - Captain Olimar

"These guys have to be one of my favorites in general, just the mouth-like gills gives me a smile. Also possessing the ability to live underwater is stellar, making them vital for under battles. Maybe we will find a huge creature that will be underwater!" - Tang

"I've come to learn that they actually act like life guards. How did I come to this conclusion? From their ability to throw drowning Pikmin back to land of course! That and their little mouths makes them my favorite besides the Yellow Pikmin and Winged Pikmin." - Robin
