Flukeweeds are plants found in Pikmin 3. They appear as curly pink sprouts. Most Pikmin don't know what to do with them, but Winged Pikmin will pull them out of the ground, often revealing a Pellet, some Sheargrubs, and sometimes fruit. Depending on they're attached to, a Flukeweed may require one, three, or five Winged Pikmin to be pulling at it before it can start being weakened; regardless of the minimum number, no more than five can pull at once. If the Winged Pikmin are under the influence of Ultra-Spicy Spray, they will uproot the Flukeweed faster. Some Flukeweeds are used for other purposes. For example, the Flukeweeds on the branch near the Winged Onion in the Twilight River are used to lift the branch to allow the lily pads to flow downstream. There is also a Flukeweed in the Garden of Hope that when plucked, frees the Blue Onion.
