The Pellet Kelp is a plant in Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers. It's a plant that appears to be a thick stalk of Seaweed with numerous blades branching off of it. Some pods sprout from the stalk of the plant, holding numerous blue pellets. Depending on the waters it lives in, it's color varies. In tropical ocean waters like Creature's Quay, it is a vibrant green, while in colder waters like in the Misty Badlands, it is an off-color yellow.
Swaying peacefully in the waters, there are three pellets growing on the stalk of the Pellet Kelp. Ordering Blue Pikmin to attack it will cause them to grab one of the pellets, up to three Blue Pikmin can grab a pellet. Each pellet has it's own health wheel, and like a Flukeweed, Blue Pikmin deplete damage from it in increments by tugging onto 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 it's 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.

Notes
Olimar's notes
- “A relative of the globally diverse Pellet Posy that grows within saltwater. Due to the inconvenience of using conventional seeds that would get washed away in the ocean tides, this plant instead reproduces through use of specialised spores that soon sprout into new specimens. Just like it's terrestrial counterpart, it crystalizes nectar from it's nectaries to make pellets. They are an important part of the food chain in areas it's found in, and its existence implies that other plants in water can secrete nectar, unlike back at Hocotate.”
Louie's notes
- “This plant can be prepared like it's relatives, only the resulting hors d'oeuvre is brinier due to the surrounding saltwater it grows in. Do not eat anything else on the plant, as it can lead to constipation.”
