'''Digging''' | {{image}} | ||
'''Digging''' is an ability [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] have in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. Pikmin can both dig '''out''' something in the ground, or dig their way '''in''' some holes. | |||

In ''Pikmin 2'', [[treasure]] that is completely underground does not have any obvious indicator of its presence. Only [[White Pikmin]] have the ability to detect this type of treasure, and when they're told to work on the spot the collectible is at, they will begin slowly digging it out until it peaks to the surface, at which point other types of Pikmin may help.

The only way a player has to tell that there's treasure in that location is with the [[Treasure Gauge]], or by having White Pikmin scan the floor with the [[group move]] mechanic. It should be noted that in this game, White Pikmin automatically start digging a buried item (whether it is partially or completely buried) without the player's consent; this does not apply to other Pikmin types. | ||

[[Yellow Pikmin]] have been given an extra trait, though, in that they can dig out objects faster than other types. Also in this game, [[bomb rock]] explosions can help dig out buried items, but they don't affect spacesuit [[upgrade]]s. [[Flukeweed]]s can also be used to pull out objects under the ground, but that does not involve the digging ability Pikmin possess. | ||

In ''Pikmin 3 | In ''Pikmin 3'', there are two hole [[obstacles]] that Pikmin can dig their way through. [[Dirt mound]]s are entrances to underground burrows that contain items and [[tunnel]]s are pathways covered in rubble that can be dug out to allow passage. | ||

==== | ==Digging speeds== | ||
In ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3'', different Pikmin types have different speeds for digging out objects. The following tables list rough estimate speeds, in relative values. | |||
=== | ===Pikmin 2=== | ||
= | {| class="wikitable sortable" | ||
! Type || Speed | |||
|- | |||
| White Pikmin / Blue Pikmin / Yellow Pikmin / Bulbmin || 1.0× | |||
|- | |||
| Red Pikmin || 1.5× | |||
|- | |||
| Purple Pikmin || 2.0× | |||
|} | |||
When under the effect of the ultra-spicy spray, every Pikmin will dig out an object at the same speed as an unsprayed [[Purple Pikmin]] (with the latter being included). | |||
=== | ===Pikmin 3=== | ||
{| class="wikitable sortable" | {| class="wikitable sortable" | ||
! Type || | ! Type || Speed | ||
|- | |- | ||
| | | White Pikmin / Winged Pikmin || 1.0× | ||
|- | |- | ||
| | | Blue Pikmin || 2.0× | ||
|- | |- | ||
| | | Red Pikmin / Purple Pikmin || 3.0× | ||
|- | |- | ||
| | | Yellow Pikmin / Rock Pikmin || 4.0× | ||
|} | |} | ||
One can conclude that the digging speed of a Pikmin depends on its attack power, with the exception being Yellow Pikmin because their digging speed is twice as fast as that of the other types. Rock Pikmin and Yellow Pikmin dig at the same speed given that, despite digging twice as slow as Yellow Pikmin, Rock Pikmin are twice as powerful, mitigating their slowness. | |||
When under the effect of the ultra-spicy spray, every Pikmin type digs at the same speed as an unsprayed Yellow Pikmin (Yellow Pikmin included). Their digging animations are sped up (Yellow Pikmin excluded) to match that of an unsprayed Yellow Pikmin digging an object. | |||
Finally, the [[maturity]] of a Pikmin does not have any impact on its digging speed. Moreover, the time taken to dig out depends on the object itself: while it seems constant for those partially buried, it's slightly random for the fully buried ones. This is a matter of few seconds for the fastest Pikmin, and a matter of few minutes for the slowest Pikmin (Winged and White Pikmin). | |||
