Orange Pikmin (橙ピクミン) are a new type of Pikmin introduced in Pikmin 5. These Pikmin have a tall body, facial hair, and a spear-shaped leaf. They have a high attack strength, however, their throw height is lower, and they get stuck on enemies for a while. Orange Pikmin are completely immune to mold, a dangerous substance that quickly kills other Pikmin. This makes them required to remove spiderwort mold.

They are the fifth of ten Pikmin species acquired.

Orange Pikmin in Pikmin Adventures are distinguishable from other Pikmin by the spikes coating their arms and hands. These spikes allow Orange Pikmin to carry bomb rocks, although they themselves are not resistant to explosions. They are the last Pikmin species discovered, found at Precarious Crater, surrounded by cliffs on all sides. To reach them, Pikmin must be thrown across a gap for them to build a bridge on the spire to connect the two sides and be able to cross to the Orange Onion. The five Orange Pikmin there can then be whistled. Orange Pikmin are parasitic, and any bulborb or bulbear that eats one will respectively become a Bulbmin or a Bulbearmin. No Pikmin will be lost in this process. Five Orange Pikmin can also be thrown onto a dead Yellow Wollywog to receive five Wollymin. On the surface, at sunset, if an Orange Pikmin is in a host body, it will exit the host body to be able to return to its Onion. One peculiarity concerning Orange Pikmin is that bomb rocks are less likely to fall from cave ceilings where they are present. Although they have an Onion, more Orange Pikmin can be made by throwing Pikmin into a Tangerine Candypop Bud.

Notes

Olimar's notes

Orange Pikmin are the oddest type of Pikmin, as they seem perfectly fine as a Pikmin, but yearn to have a host. It is unknown why this is, so further research is required.

Sagittarius' notes

At first, I was scared of Orange Pikmin! I was afraid they would try to control me like they do grub-dogs, but they seem friendly enough, so I know they have taken a liking to me.

Notes

Olimar's notes

This member of the Pikmin family has evolved in harshly hot caves, making it mandatory to evolve to become immune to high temperatures. Like its close relative, the Amethyst Pikmin, it lives in small cave environments.

Notes

Olimar's notes

This unnatural specimen seems to be a new, undiscovered type of Pikmin. It has a weird heart-shaped flower on its stem, with what appears to be a cylindrical nozzle sticking out of it. This Pikmin type might be resistant to a hazard that I don't know about, but maybe the small protrusion on its flower might have a use later.

These Orange Pikmin become larger and could now carry bigger bomb rocks but retain a carrying capacity of one, while Yellow Pikmin stayed the same size, lost the ability to carry bomb rocks, and developed a resistance to electricity. Some Yellow Onions evolved to accommodate Orange Pikmin.

Orange Pikmin are Pikmin that infect enemies, turning the hosts into a Pikmin hybrid of sorts. This process occurs when enemies mistake them for pikpik carrots and eat them, or they are thrown onto the enemy's back. Orange Pikmin are why Bulbmin, among other similar enemies, exist, and a collective term for them is "Creaturemin". Depending on the enemy in question, more Orange Pikmin are required to infect it: small enemies require 1, mid-size enemies require 5, large enemies require 10, minibosses require 15, and bosses require 20. While they don't have eyes, Orange Pikmin can use their stem as a sensor to detect nearby lifeforms, and the eyes of their host, if they have any, to see. Another ability Orange Pikmin have is digging tunnels that other Pikmin can't access. The only known way to cultivate Orange Pikmin is with underground candypop buds, but maybe there's an Orange Onion somewhere.
