Appearance

In Pikmin Chronicles
Cyan Pikmin, also known as Arctic Pikmin, are a type of Pikmin said to appear in Pikmin Chronicles. They are light blue in color and have greyish-white fur covering the majority of their body. They also have squinted eyes that are slightly green in color. Cyan Pikmin are resistant to ice and water, but their attack power is decreased while in water. If an enemy eats a Cyan Pikmin, that particular enemy will take a longer amount of time to chew and swallow the Pikmin, allowing a chance to attack the enemy and save the Pikmin. They are about the same size as Pink Pikmin. Being a subspecies of Blue Pikmin, it can coexist with them inside the Blue Onion.

In Pikmin Galaxy Adventure
Cyan Pikmin, in Pikmin Galaxy Adventure, are resistant to water and poison due to their color being light blue, making them very useful for crossing poisonous water. They are also resistant to ice and mist.

In Pikmin Rebirth
Cyan Pikmin are one of the seven types of Pikmin in Pikmin Rebirth, attainable from their Onion or converting other types by using Turquoise Candypop Buds. They, alongside Green Pikmin are one of the two new Pikmin species, and like Green Pikmin, lack traditional flowers; Cyan Pikmin instead have a cotton-like flower similar to a dandelion that becomes increasingly more purple as it matures. Cyan Pikmin uniquely have barbed feet, allowing them to traverse uneven surfaces with ease, and also allows them to have a better grip on enemies, being less likely to be shaken off, letting them occupy a useful niche in long-term combat. However, the biggest boon Cyan Pikmin have is their immunity to ice; not only are they immune to slipping on icy surfaces, but they are also immune to the freezing effects of icy mist. This boon, however, comes at a cost, as Cyan Pikmin are instantly killed if they touch fire, regardless of source or type, making dealing with those sources using them ill-advised. Cyan Pikmin can even become one with the ice by infusing themselves with the ice to become Frost Pikmin. Frost Pikmin can freeze the surfaces of fluids such as water to create an icy bridge for better travel while also chilling enemies to give them frostbite which does damage over time. Overall one of the riskier Pikmin to use due to their major fire weakness, but still very useful.

In Pikmin Sunshine
In Pikmin Sunshine, Cyan Pikmin are resistant to ice, a new hazard. Their notable feature is their many crystal ears.

In Pikmin: Advanced Online
Cyan Pikmin are the only Pikmin type immune to Puffstool spores in Pikmin: Advanced Online. They have a mushroom cap at the end of their stem instead of a leaf, bud, or flower. They do have an Onion, which is found in the area Big Mall. They are the only Pikmin found there.

In Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs
In Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs, Cyan Pikmin, their respective Onion, and Teal Candypop Buds can be found in the Land of Wonders, more specifically the Arctic Territory. Cyan Pikmin are immune to being chilled, an effect produced by both Freezerburnt Breadbugs and cold water. Cyan Pikmin, upon entering cold water, will not be chilled, but can still drown. Conversely, Blue Pikmin can not drown, but will become chilled.

In Pikmin: The Big Trip
In Pikmin: The Big Trip, Cyan Pikmin are the seventh Pikmin type discovered.

In Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds
Cyan Pikmin appear in Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds, and are discovered in sublevel three of Icicle Abyss. Their skin is cyan, but it's hidden by thick fur, which is also cyan. Their bud or flower is dark blue, and the center of their flower is yellow. Their thick fur allows them to trap body heat, which makes them warm enough to be unaffected by ice and snow hazards. It should be noted, however, that since they lack gills like Blue Pikmin, they will drown in water.

In Pikmin: The Dawn of Petals
Cyan Pikmin in Pikmin: The Dawn of Petals have big ice crystals on their head to shield them from the heavy snowfall. They have tiny hairs all over their body despite appearing smooth, and they prevent them from cooling down. Overall, they are comparable to Ice Pikmin.

In Pikmin: Distant Planet
Cyan Pikmin appear in Pikmin: Distant Planet. They have light blue skin. Their leaf has a slight blue tint because it stores water, and the petals of their bud or flower are blue. When striking a metal target, a Cyan Pikmin's stem will spray it with pressurized water blasts, causing it to rust and become destructible. In addition, they can also siphon water from an icy target to eliminate snow or ice. If Cyan Pikmin sprouts are showered by water, they bloom into the flower stage of maturity. Due to siphoning water with their leaves/buds/flowers, they cannot be drowned since Pikmin drown when their leaves/buds/flowers are covered in water.



In Pikmin: Mysterious Raiders
Cyan Pikmin in Pikmin: Mysterious Raiders are discovered at the Twinkling Spring. Their skin is light blue. Their leaf has a slight blue tint to it because it stores water, and their petals are blue. As Cyan Pikmin strike a metal target with their stems, a blast of pressurized water rusts it so it can be broken apart. Similarly, Cyan Pikmin can siphon water out of an icy target, allowing them to melt snow or ice. Upon being struck with water, Cyan Pikmin sprouts will instantly bloom to the flower stage.

In Pikmin: Planet War
In Pikmin: Planet War, Cyan Pikmin create light, which emanates from their eyes and leaf, bud, or flower, or in this case, stub, small glowcap, or large glowcap. Cyan Pikmin are very useful in dark locations, and are discovered in Dark Canopy.

In Pikmin: Return to the Distant Planet
Cyan Pikmin are discovered in Glacier Bay in Pikmin: Return to the Distant Planet. They are light blue, and they have an ivy leaf. Their bud or flower has red petals. Cyan Pikmin are resistant to ice and can clear away cold mist. They have a higher damage output than normal.

In Pikmin: Spectrum
Cyan Pikmin appear in Pikmin: Spectrum, and they are born from the Cyan Onion and Teal Candypop Buds. They resemble standard Pikmin but with a few differences: to protect themselves from the cold, they developed a layer of soft fur around their entire bodies, which has the feel of cotton, and their leaf, bud, and flower are lavender in color and have a soft, felt-like texture. They share some anatomy with Blue Pikmin, mainly a tiny dot-shaped mouth where they blow cold air, and their heights are similar. Cyan Pikmin store cold air inside their organs, which they breathe out over watery surfaces to create temporary paths. These paths can be traveled on by all Pikmin types, allowing free movement over water. Cyan Pikmin have standard statistics all around, but they have a speed advantage when fighting on surfaces with bad traction, such as ice or grease, becoming almost as fast as White Pikmin. Cyan Pikmin are immune to ice and ice-based obstacles such as blizzards and cold vents but are very weak to fire hazards, as fire will incinerate them instantly. The Cyan Pikmin is the winning result of the first Pikmin creation contest in the Pikmin: Spectrum thread on SmashBoards.

In Pikmin: The Pollution
