In Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers
The Pellet Kelp is a plant in Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers that appears to be a thick stalk of with numerous blades branching off of it. Some pods sprout from the stalk of the plant, holding numerous blue pellets. Depending on the waters the plant lives in, its color varies; in tropical ocean waters like those in Creature's Quay, it is a vibrant green, while in colder waters like in Misty Badlands, it is a sickly yellow.

Swaying peacefully in the waters, there are three pellets growing on the stalk of each Pellet Kelp. Ordering Blue Pikmin to attack it will cause them to grab one of the pellets, which each have their own health wheel. Up to three Blue Pikmin can grab a pellet and, like how Winged Pikmin uproot a Flukeweed, proceed to deplete health from it in increments by tugging on it. Once a pellet is pulled out, the pod it was held in will turn brown and shrivel up. Once all three are taken off, the whole plant will wilt away, leaving behind yellow spores in its wake that float in the water. Due to the fact that it grows three pellets at once, they are a good source of Blue Pikmin. Pellet Kelp regrows after two days.
