'''Climbing Sticks''' are obstacles found in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']] and ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' that require [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to build and shimmy up them. They are somewhat similar to [[bridge]]s, but they are not climbable by [[Captain Olimar]], nor by Pikmin carrying something. [[Sheargrub]]s and [[Shearwig]]s will fortunately not dismantle these useful ladders, although they are automatically leveled every day after sundown in ''Pikmin''. They are found in every level in ''Pikmin'' except [[The Forest of Hope]] and [[The Final Trial]]. In ''Pikmin 3'', Pikmin that carry objects on a route will use Climbing Sticks. Some Climbing Sticks need to be built, while others are already built.

In ''Pikmin'', an interesting happening is that there is a good chance that one or more Pikmin will start climbing the Climbing Stick, while other Pikmin are working on it. This is commonly seen on [[The Impact Site]], when the player wants to bring 100 Pikmin up the trunk. [[Group move|Swarming]] the Climbing Stick will cause some Pikmin to start climbing before the work is done. Additionally, swarming many Pikmin on a finished Climbing Stick might cause some Pikmin to get stuck on the bottom.

===Locations===

[[Pikmin|''Pikmin'']]

[[The Impact Site]]: there is only one Climing Stick here, near the Red and Blue [[Onion|Onions]] leading to 10 [[Pellets]] of each color

[[The Forest Navel]]: In The Forest Navel, Climbing sticks appear very often, one is near the [[#1 Ionium Jet]], also near [[Bomb Rocks]], one is used as a shortcut just behind the Blue Onion, the final one is near the [[Crimson Candypop Bud]] also where an [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]] resides.

[[The Distant Spring]]: In The Distant Spring, Climbing Sticks are a bit less common, there is one behind the [[S.S. Dolphin|Dolphin]] and the Blue Onion, and the other, is in the small pit, near the [[UV Lamp]]
