The Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud is a blue-petaled candypop bud that behaves just like any other candypop bud but changes Pikmin thrown into them into Blue Pikmin. Blue Pikmin that are thrown in are reverted to the leaf stage and don't count against the five-Pikmin limit per candypop bud.

Notes
Olimar's observations
- “Out of the three primary colored Candypop Buds, these are probably the most helpful, especially on those caves where we just barely don't have enough Blue Pikmin to lift something through the water. It sometimes really seems like these flowers have a mind of their own, and know where to show up to be the most useful. Perhaps their connection to the Pikmin family is stronger than I once suspected.”
Cookin' with Louie
- “This flower's tough texture makes it unsuitable for salads, but its bright blue hue makes for a grandiose garnish.”

Lapis Lazuli Candypop Buds, in Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs, are distributed throughout the Marsh Territory in groups of two to three. Each of them can convert ten Pikmin into Blue Pikmin if they are not already that color. After changing ten non-Blue Pikmin, a Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud will wilt and disappear. They regenerate every seven days.

Notes
Olimar's notes
- “Lapis Lazuli Candypop Buds correspond to the Blue Pikmin, producing them when other types of Pikmin are tossed within. It should come as no surprise that this particular Candypop Bud species takes in more water than its kin, which means it often grows near bodies of water and becomes plentiful during the rainy season. Blue Pikmin greatly benefit from these restrictions.”
Louie's notes
- “This plant's petals and leaves are way too tough to eat and are just not fun to chew at all. I'm starting to notice a theme with these disappointing flowers.”
Ship's comments
- “This color reminds me of the time Olimar tried to paint me blue, I gave him an earful afterwards! Nowadays, as I grow progressively more adverse to the color red, I think blue could be right up my alley! Here's to hoping we find some more Decorative Goo!”
