Beige Pikmin

Beige Pikmin are light brown Pikmin that have beady black eyes. They are smaller than other Pikmin, and like Purple Pikmin and White Pikmin, they have a magenta bud or flower, depending on their maturity. Beige Pikmin are extremely lightweight, which allows them to float on water and walk on weak terrain without trouble. As such, they're useful for crossing bodies of water or crossing patches of broken glass. They cannot be thrown as high as a Yellow Pikmin, but a characteristic unique to Beige Pikmin is floating to the ground slowly after being thrown, much like a feather. They are slightly weaker than other Pikmin types in terms of attack strength, but they are able to hit their targets at a slightly faster rate to counteract this. The rate at which they hit targets is between the rate any other Pikmin would hit their targets and the rate at which Pikmin under the effects of ultra-spicy spray would hit their targets. Beige Pikmin are resistant to having their maturity stage decreased, which makes them effective against Withering Blowhogs, even if they get blown much farther away by its wind than any other Pikmin would.
