In Pikmin: Gold/Silver/Bronze
The Shiny Candypop Bud is the candypop bud used to propagate Bronze Pikmin, in Pikmin: Gold/Silver/Bronze. Its petals are clear, like crystal. Uniquely, the plant ejects Bronze Pikmin seeds but only when Silver Pikmin or Gold Pikmin are thrown into it; any other Pikmin are simply thrown off. Doing so is only necessary when no Bronze Pikmin or Silver Pikmin are available, such as by evolving them into Gold Pikmin, as only Bronze Pikmin and Silver Pikmin can mine, at the Cave of Origin, for Bronze Pikmin, Silver Pikmin, and Gold Pikmin.
