'''Flukeweeds''' are [[plant]]s in {{p3}} that function as [[tool]]s. They appear as curly pink sprouts. Most Pikmin types cannot interact with them, but [[Winged Pikmin]] will try to pull them out of the ground, often revealing an object attached to their roots, like a [[pellet]], some [[Sheargrub]]s, a [[fruit]], or other things. When holding on, the Pikmin tug together at regular intervals, but if they are not enough, this action will do nothing to the plant. If there are enough Pikmin on it however, each tug will decrease its [[health]], until it reaches 0, at which point the plant pops out of the ground, drops its content, and then disappears. If the Winged Pikmin are under the influence of [[ultra-spicy spray]], they will uproot the Flukeweed faster. These plants bare a striking resemblance to the Fiddleheads found within Pikmin 2, perhaps being a member of the same (fern) family.

'''Flukeweeds''' are [[plant]]s found in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. They appear as curly pink sprouts. Most Pikmin don't know what to do with them, but [[Winged Pikmin]] will pull them out of the ground, often revealing an object attached to their roots, like a [[pellet]], some [[Sheargrub]]s, [[fruit]] or other things. Depending on what it's attached to, a Flukeweed may require 1, 3, or 5 Winged Pikmin to pull it out, although no more than 5 may be holding on to the same plant. When holding on, the Pikmin tug together at regular intervals, but if they are not enough, this action will do nothing to the plant. If there are enough Pikmin on it however, each tug will decrease its [[health]], until it reaches 0, where the plant pops out of the ground. If the Winged Pikmin are under the influence of [[ultra-spicy spray]], they will uproot the Flukeweed faster.
 
==Strength to uproot==
Depending on what the Flukeweed holds, a different amount of [[Winged Pikmin]] is required to uproot it and reveal the items. Generally, Flukeweeds containing valuable items like [[fruit]] need more Winged Pikmin to uproot as opposed to Flukeweeds containing eggs or bomb rocks. For lighter Flukeweeds, adding more Winged Pikmin will increase the speed in which they uproot it. However, Flukeweeds that require five Winged Pikmin to uproot cannot have more added after five are assigned.

{{todo|Describe how it is that the Pikmin reach the Flukeweeds: does the player need to throw them to specific ones, or do they split themselves automatically? Also, how many Pikmin are needed in each, and how many can be on each at once? Finally, describe in what ways these Flukeweeds differ from normal ones (like the tugging animation).}}
On top of a waterfall in the [[Twilight River]] area, there is a '''dam''' blocking [[lily pad]]s from flowing down one of the river's branches. It is a small branch that has three Flukeweeds attached to it. When ten Winged Pikmin grab on, they pull the branch out of the way, allowing the lily pads to flow. This obstacle is unique in that the Flukeweeds do not have individual requirements and instead the Winged Pikmin automatically split into groups. Four will always go to the furthest flukeweed and three will go to the other two. The appearance and animation of these Flukeweeds is the same as others, though a [[cutscene]] will play when the dam is lifted.
On top of a waterfall on the [[Twilight River]], there is a large stick that has three Flukeweeds attached to it. When ten Pikmin grab on, they pull the branch out of the way, allowing [[lily pad]]s access to that river.
