A '''Seeding Dandelion''' is a [[Dandelion]] which has flowered for long enough to be pollinated and produce a batch of fresh seeds, each attached to a fluffy white tuft. The tufts catch the wind and the seeds are swept from the plant so that they may land and take root in a new location. Seeding Dandelions can be found as scenery interactable plants in {{p2}} and {{p3}}, but as important gameplay mechanics in {{hp}}. In ''Pikmin 3'', normal Dandelions evolve as the days progress, until they finally turn into Seeding Dandelions.

In {{hp}}, Seeding Dandelions are not much taller than the Pikmin themselves, and they serve as a stopping point for Pikmin. When Pikmin are thrown in this game, they either walk towards a [[treasure]], or walk back to [[Captain Olimar]]'s side. If thrown Pikmin are needed to stay in a certain spot until they are whistled, chances are a Seeding Dandelion will be there. As per a cutscene, when a Pikmin notices a bed of Seeding Dandelions, it cannot resist the urge to jump right on top of the plants and bounce around.

A Seeding Dandelion is a Dandelion which has flowered for long enough to be pollinated and produce a batch of fresh seeds, each attached to a fluffy white tuft. In Pikmin 2, Pikmin 3, and Pikmin Adventure, Seeding Dandelions serve as decoration, and bumping into one will dislodge one or two seeds that float away. Additionally, in Pikmin 3, Dandelions gradually change into Seeding Dandelions as days pass, and throwing a Pikmin into it will dislodge all its seeds. In Hey! Pikmin, Seeding Dandelions serve as a stopping point for Pikmin, as thrown Pikmin will remain there until they are whistled.

In fanon games

Below this point is where users place their version of the Seeding Dandelion.

Seeding Dandelions appear in Pikmin 251. They are unchanged from their Pikmin 2 incarnation.

Notes

Olimar's observations

This rather uncommon weed spreads its seeds around whenever it is disturbed, usually by the wind. It is certainly a unique way to reproduce, but I'm not sure if it's all that effective.

Cookin' with Louie

Dried, roasted, and finely ground, the root of this plant makes a passable coffee substitute.

In Pikmin: Redemption

Not many Seeding Dandelions are seen in Pikmin: Redemption because most have become ordinary Dandelions.
