'''Pikgems''' are a non-canonical type of Pikmin found in the [[Pikmin Forever/Challenge Mode|Challenge Mode]] of [[Pikmin Forever|''Pikmin Forever'']]. They resemble crystalline [[Bulbmin]], and come in 25 gemstone/precious stone types. Pikgems are immune to all hazards including blunt force; they can only die from explosions or by falling off pits. They also have the attack strength of Purple Pikmin, and regular running, swimming, and carrying speeds. In essence they are ideal Pikmin for completing a particularly difficult stage.

Pikgems are first mentioned when the '''Peculiar Gemstone''', a hidden faceted gem in the story mode, is brought to the [[The Ship#Pikmin Forever|research pod]] or the [[KHA Lander]]. The pod or lander analyzes the gem and concludes that it is alive and comes from an alternate dimension, and speculates about crystalline life-forms living in that dimension. This analysis unlocks [[Pikmin Forever/Challenge Mode|Challenge Mode]]. In Challenge Mode, 50 out of the 100 stages have another gem/semiprecious stone in them that, if collected, will earn the player 5 Pikgems of the particular gemstone's type. Thus up to 250 Pikgems can be collected, and at any time they can substitute for any type of Pikmin. Their leaves/buds/stems will turn the color of the Pikmin they substituted, and they will thus gain the substituted Pikmin's extra abilities (for example, the [[Yellow Pikmin#Pikmin Forever|Yellow Pikmin]]s' ability to conduct electricity). Once deployed in a Challenge Mode stage, Pikgems cannot be used again, no matter if they die or not. They also cannot be converted using Candypop Buds.

There are no differences between colors of Pikgem; the color is only to signify what gem/semiprecious stone unlocked them. Just as there are 25 types of Gem, there are 25 colors of Pikgem, meaning a maximum of 10 Pikgems of each color are seen:

Pikgems are a type of Pikmin in Pikmin Forever that are noncanonical to the story but appear in Challenge Mode. They resemble crystalline Bulbmin, and come in twenty-five types. Pikgems are immune to all hazards, and only die from explosions or by falling into pits. Pikgems have average running, swimming, and carrying speeds, but have the attack strength of Purple Pikmin; in essence, they are ideal Pikmin for completing a particularly difficult stage.

Pikgems are first mentioned when the Peculiar Gemstone, a hidden faceted gem in story mode, is brought to the research pod or the KHA Lander. The pod or lander analyzes the gem and concludes that it is alive and comes from an alternate dimension, and speculates about crystalline lifeforms living in that dimension. This analysis unlocks Challenge Mode. In Challenge Mode, fifty out of the one hundred stages have another gem or semiprecious stone in them that, when collected, will yield five Pikgems of the particular gemstone's type. Thus, up to two hundred and fifty Pikgems can be collected, and at any time they can substitute for any type of Pikmin. Their leaves or petals will turn the color of the Pikmin they substituted, and they will thus gain the substituted Pikmin's extra abilities. For example, the Yellow Pikmins' ability to conduct electricity. Once deployed in a Challenge Mode stage, Pikgems can not be used again, no matter if they die or not. They also can not be converted using candypop buds.

There are no differences between the colors of Pikgem other than to signify what gem or semiprecious stone unlocked them. Just as there are twenty-five types of Peculiar Gemstones, there are twenty-five colors of Pikgem, meaning a maximum of ten Pikgems of each color are seen:
