In Pikmin E
The Rising Pine is a member of the chrysanthemum family found in Pikmin E. It exhibits the typical behaviors of its relatives, initially appearing as a small plant but revealing its true form when approached by prey. Rising Pines prefer to swallow Pikmin and leaders whole instead of chewing them to bits first. Any leaders it catches in its mouth will be chewed, suffering damage, before being spat out alongside any Pikmin in its mouth at the time. Because they are covered in sharp pine needles, Rising Pines should only be attacked using Rock Pikmin, although White Pikmin can be fed to the creature to poison it to death. Any Rock Pikmin a Rising Pine attempts to eat will only be briefly chewed before being spat out again along with any other Pikmin that were in its mouth.

Rising Pines prefer eating Pikmin and leaders whole, but can also thrust out its sharp tongue to skewer Pikmin on to eat. Because they are covered with sharp pine needles, they should only be attacked using Rock Pikmin. Alternatively, White Pikmin could be used to slowly poison it to death. Any Rock Pikmin a Rising Pine attempts to eat will only be briefly chewed before being spat out again along with any other Pikmin that were in its mouth at the time.
