{{todo|Add the missing areas to the infobox, and confirm that the Glowstems themselves trigger bomb rocks.}}

The '''Common Glowcap''' is a luminescent [[fungus]] and is used as scenery in some [[area]]s and [[cave]]s. They are a source of light when "awake", which can be used in the [[leaders]]' favor.

In the first two games, they are purely aesthetic, and as scenery, the Glowcaps do not change gameplay at all, unlike their supposed "relative", the [[Glowstem]], which may cause [[bomb-rocks]] to fall upon contact with it.

In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' these plants are initially found buried in the ground with only the tops showing; they do not give light in this state. Contact with them will make them rise out and light up a small area around them. The light from these plants can damage and kill [[Phosbat]]s, as well as provide shelter from the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]]. Two variations exist: a cyan one and a pink one. They can also have different sizes, sometimes. The color influences the light that comes out (of the same color), but nothing else.

In ''[[Pikmin Adventure]]'', they are referred to as '''Glowing Mushrooms''', and provide light to help the player navigate. Moreover, if the player touches them, they will glow and emit light themselves for a small period of time.

===Nintendo Player's Guide===
"''Providing illumination in dark areas, the Common Glowcap is a wonder to observe. Olimar notes that the mushroom's glow comes from a compound called Hocotatium 111.''"
===''Pikmin 3'' Prima Guide===
"''These luminescent mushrooms can be very useful when you're exploring a dark cave. When a Glowcap is dormant, it looks like nothing more than a spot of light on the ground. When you pass over a dormant Glowcap, however, it springs out of the ground and illuminates the immediate area.''"
