'''Geysers''' are water fountains found in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]]. These are helpful to the player, in that they propel [[leader]]s or [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to a higher location. Their functions are different in each game. | |||

[[File:GeyserP1.png|thumb|A geyser shooting water in ''Pikmin''.]] | |||
In the [[Pikmin (game)|first game]], small geysers can be found in various locations throughout each of the five areas, except [[The Forest of Hope]]. Geysers are usually inactive, resembling little more than rocky protrusions from the ground, and must be unblocked by directing [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] towards them. An exception to this rule is a geyser in a hole near the [[UV Lamp]] in [[The Distant Spring]] and the two located at [[The Final Trial]], which are always activated. Active geysers will bubble and send [[Olimar]] flying into the air when he stands on them, allowing access to otherwise unreachable high-up areas and sometimes providing shortcuts over large features. These geysers do not propel Pikmin. | |||

Large geysers are found in every [[cave]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', always on the final [[sublevel]]. Their purpose is as a means of returning to the surface: the [[leader]]s and the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] jump into the water, which lifts them upwards through a hole in the ceiling. and land at the landing site of the [[Areas|area]] the cave is found in. Some longer caves also have them on so-called "[[Rest sublevel|rest levels]]", generally a few floors down, as a means of leaving safely if the player is lacking in Pikmin. Rest levels often also contain [[eggs]] and [[Candypop Bud]]s. | |||
In [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], geysers are found hidden on the last floor, and only rise up when [[The Key]] of the level is retrieved. However, it still won't allow the level to be completed: the geyser is dormant when it rises, and the Pikmin need to attack it until it activates. | In [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], geysers are found hidden on the last floor, and only rise up when [[The Key]] of the level is retrieved.

In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', geysers are similar to those in ''Pikmin'', which are small and are able to launch leaders, except these geysers are able to propel Pikmin, as well, and are always active. Sometimes, [[Crystal#Small crystal|crystals]] will be clogging the geysers, and will need to be destroyed with [[Rock Pikmin]]. | |||

There is a visual glitch that occurs with geysers and hole entrances in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|''Pikmin 2'''s Challenge Mode]]. These objects are sometimes visible underneath the surface of the [[cave]], and can be seen by looking underneath the floor from somewhere else. These geysers are only visible underground in Challenge Mode because they start under the surface and rise up when [[The Key]] is collected. | There is a visual glitch that occurs with geysers and hole entrances in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|''Pikmin 2'''s Challenge Mode]].

*There is | *There is a geyser in [[The Forest Navel]] next to the [[Gravity Jumper]]. It is possible that this is the result of a [[Mistakes in the Pikmin series|leftover]] from a [[Pikmin prerelease information|previous version of the area]], as the geyser in the final game leads to nowhere helpful. | ||
*In | *In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', geysers are technically [[bosses]]. As a result, when a player approaches one, the [[Music in Pikmin#Areas|music]] will change to the combat variant. | ||
