Parasitic Pikmin appear in Pikmin 2... Again? with the nickname of Pikmites. As the parasitic Pikmin species that takes over Bulbmin, the name of which belonging to the host rather than the Pikmite itself, they are mentioned by nickname in Olimar's notes. The color of their soul and stem suggest they are of a vermillion hue, but their true form is unknown. They are based on the Bulbmin in Pikmin 2 but it is unknown if the Pikmite is the same as them; they are most likely not for two reasons, those being that the Bulbmin's true color is currently unknown and that Pikmin 2... Again? takes place in an alternate timeline where Bulbmin as a parasitic Pikmin never existed.

Bean Pikmin (豆ピクミン?) are the second Pikmin discovered in Pikmin 8: The World Beyond. Bean Pikmin can make bridges and parasitize enemies, but how much they can accomplish depends on how many Bean Pikmin are in the squad. For example, just one Bean Pikmin can parasitize small creatures, while ten or more can parasitize bigger creatures. If the host dies, the Bean Pikmin controlling it die too.
The following are potential hosts of Bean Pikmin:

Two types of Parasitic Pikmin appear in Pikmin Chronicles: Bulbmin, the Pikmin that infect bulborbs, and Green Pikmin, sometimes known as Dwarf Bulbmin, the result radiation exposure has on Bulbmin.
Bulbmin are bright orange, have hair-like protrusions on their heads, sharp claws, and lightly bloodshot eyes with pink irises. They are very aggressive and live in bright orange Onions, which may appear at random in some environments, and do one of two things: they land on the ground and release Bulbmin, or eject seeds, both of which contribute towards the limit of on-field Pikmin. Since they share the same plant-animal heritage, Bulbmin and other Pikmin will not attack one another. They are aggressive toward leaders even when plucked from the ground by them. Leaders can shake off attacking Bulbmin to defend themselves and can punch them until they die, although they can be led into hazards they would normally avoid while passive. The Bulbmin Onion can be attacked after it lands, and if attacked sufficiently, it will fly off to land in a different location in the same environment.
When exposed to radiation, Bulbmin shrink to about half of their original size, making them the smallest of all known Pikmin, and turn a strange shade of green, with their hair falling out, claws lengthening, and eyes becoming yellow and blank, to become Green Pikmin. Aside from their speed and hostility, Green Pikmin are especially dangerous in the sense that they can control other Pikmin. These Pikmin are viewed as threats by other Pikmin, and so will attack one another.

- Fiery Blowlets, Watery Blowlets, Bubbly Blowlets, and Snowy Blowlets;
- Aristocrab Offsprings;
- Downy Snagrets;

“ | The lanky Bean Pikmin are seldom seen in the flesh, and usually parasitize smaller creatures, usually juvenile grub-dogs. Despite their lanky appearance, theoretically, a Bean Pikmin could parasitize any creature and transform it into a Pikmin, mostly because of their ability to root itself inside their body, leading to the sprout of the Bean Pikmin burrowing out of the skin of the affected creature. | ” |
