In [[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin 1]], every Pikmin has a blue spirit, irrelevant of the colour of the Pikmin itself, while spirits in [[Pikmin 2]] are representative of the dead Pikmin's color.

==Enemies==
Pikmin souls roughly resemble a Pikmin's shape; however, they lack a leaf, bud, or flower, don't have feet, and are missing any identifying characteristics. Their appearance is slightly transparent and is representative of the dead Pikmin's type, differing in color and slightly in shape. In general, Pikmin souls represent Pikmin that have died.

Enemies spirits have a pink-purple colour and look like a bubble with a more transparent "tail" trailing behind. Two holes resembling eyes are visible near the shape's centre. [[Bulbmin]] produce a smaller version of this type of spirit when they die. There is also a minor glitch involved with enemy spirits: if you kill an enemy and rotate the camera so that the beast is no longer on-screen, the enemy spirit will not ascend until it is once again seen. In [[Pikmin 2]] they make an eerie sound when ascending.

Soul
Gameplay aspect

Souls appear every time a Pikmin or enemy is defeated. These ghostly spirit-like shapes ascend slowly until they fade away.

Pikmin souls roughly resemble a Pikmin's shape; however, they lack a leaf, bud, or flower, don't have feet, and are missing any identifying characteristics. Their appearance is slightly transparent and is representative of the dead Pikmin's type, differing in color and slightly in shape. In general, Pikmin souls represent Pikmin that have died.

Enemy souls look like a bubble and leave a transparent trail behind, and in Pikmin 3, have a tail. Two holes resembling eyes are visible near the shape's center. Bulbmin produce a smaller version of this type of soul when they die.
