This is a collection of '''[[glitch]]es''' possible in {{p3}} and {{p3d}}.

Please read the [[Pikipedia:Glitch notes|glitch notes]] before attempting any of these glitches or before adding your own.

==Main==
===Counter glitch===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = Pikmin 3 counter glitch.jpg | icaption = In this case, player 1's counter shows no standby bubble for Blue Pikmin, and player 2's shows 3 Red Pikmin on standby, but 0 on the squad. | other = [https://web.archive.org/web/20171016102853/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHklcVS-_A Miiverse post with Brittany having herself on the squad] | image-align = left
|effects = Makes the counter show erroneous numbers, like more Pikmin for standby than the number of Pikmin on the squad, or vice-versa
|howto = There is no concise way to reproduce this glitch, but so far, it was only reported to work on the [[Quaggled Mireclops]] and [[Plasm Wraith]] mission in co-op mode. Just playing through the mission as normal will be enough for the counter to eventually glitch. Although rarer, it can happen without the Quaggled Mireclops's intervention, and in single-player.{{cite web|https://web.archive.org/web/20171018025429/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADRUqF7BiZgcQ|Miiverse post showing the effects of the counter glitch in single player|Wayback Machine}}
|notes = The counter returns to normal when the standby Pikmin/leader is switched, or a Pikmin type is added to or removed from the squad. A [[Glitches in Pikmin#Counter glitch|similar glitch]] can also happen in ''[[Pikmin]]''.

===Formidable Oak backwards (''Pikmin 3'')===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Helpful | p3 = Yes | p3d = [[#Formidable Oak backwards (Pikmin 3 Deluxe)|See here]] | youtube = sZkldNUsqXM
|effects = Allows the player to do the Formidable Oak cave backwards, and clear out all enemies before actually encountering the [[Mysterious Life Form]].
|prerequisites = Have 2 leaders available, have the [[Dodge Whistle]], and have the Formidable Oak unlocked.
|howto = Take one leader and throw them onto the small root to the right of the path leading down into the Plasm Wraith arena. The placement must be perfect or else the glitch will not work. Once there, walk off and to the left, and proceed to walk up the large root of the white tree. Make sure the leader is facing away from the arena, and use a [[dodge]] roll to get on top of the rock. From there, simply whistle any Pikmin and the other two leaders and walk inside the cave. The glitch is easier seen than explained, so watch the YouTube video above.
|notes = It is advised to throw a leader who would be switched to directly (i.e. Brittany throws Charlie, Charlie throws Alph, and Alph throws Brittany) so that the leader thrown on the root can be switched to immediately and they won't fall off. If you exit through the entrance, the cutscenes play with some weird effects, such as the camera being in the wrong place or playing out of order.
|explanation = Although there is a ledge blocking off the exit to the cave, there is no actual barrier blocking off the cave's exit, and it functions just like an entrance. The only invisible wall present is next to the large rock, which is why the Dodge Whistle must be used to get over the rock. By going through the cave backwards, the player can clear out all the obstacles easily without having to worry about the Plasm Wraith, and can rescue Olimar from the cave within a few minutes.

===Formidable Oak backwards (''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'')===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Helpful | p3 = [[#Formidable Oak backwards (Pikmin 3)|See here]] | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://www.twitch.tv/videos/837137203 Twitch clip] | other = [https://twitter.com/Natsumi_Kyouno/status/1345223052443975680 Twitter video]
|effects = Allows the player to do the Formidable Oak cave backwards, and clear out all enemies before actually encountering the [[Mysterious Life Form]]. If the player activates the Plasm Wraith's fight then enter the oak from the entrance at the top, they will begin controlling two leaders at once. Some things can be done in this state, but most cause the game to [[crash]].
|prerequisites = Have 2 leaders available and have the Formidable Oak unlocked.
|howto = Have one leader [[throw|hold]] another, and walk against the wall to the east of the Onion. You will start walking up the wall. Once high enough, throw the leader [[out of bounds]]. Swap to that leader, make your way over the nearby roots, under the walkway that leads to the top, circle the Plasm Wraith's arena from the north, climb up the rock, and when possible, fall onto the pathway that leads out of the oak.
}}

===Immortal held Pikmin===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Helpful | p3 = Yes | p3d = Yes
|effects = A Pikmin gets attacked and squeals, but remains unharmed.
|howto = Merely [[Throw|hold on]] to a Pikmin. While holding, the Pikmin cannot be harmed. The leader can be hurt however, which will cause them to drop the Pikmin. If the Pikmin goes underwater and can drown, it will do so.
|explanation = During the "being grabbed" state, the Pikmin is ready for several things, such as being thrown, but being hurt is not one of them. The fact that it screams might not be related with handling an attack in that particular state as much as it is handling an attack at any point of the Pikmin's global logic.
}}

===Invincible Pikmin===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Helpful | p3 = Yes, [[update]] 1.1.0 and beyond | p3d = Yes | youtube = psQoKCzal3g | image = Red_Pikmin_Underwater.jpg | icaption = A [[Red Pikmin]] fighting a [[Toady Bloyster]] underwater without drowning.
|effects = Makes Pikmin invincible, able to go underwater, and after thrown, stop reacting to being [[whistle]]d.
|prerequisites = Be in an area with a [[crush]]ing enemy.
|howto = Stand next to somewhere where a Pikmin will get crushed and grab it as soon as it gets crushed. Make sure the [[leader]] is out of the way, as the Pikmin will die if the leader is damaged, since they will not be able to pick the Pikmin up. If all is done correctly, you should hear the Pikmin squeal even though it is still in your hands.
|notes = While these Pikmin can break underwater walls, they can't do so for [[Gate#Electric gate|electric gate]]s: when thrown at this kind of gate, they will hit it, then stop, then hit it again and then they will then rejoin your party. Oddly enough, when the player throws them on again, they won't do the same.
|explanation = When a Pikmin is crushed, some flags are set to make it invincible. This avoids having the Pikmin get hurt by hazards or other enemies while it's performing its crushing death animation. During this state, Pikmin are also no longer in the group, and so, can't be picked up. But if the player grabs the Pikmin at the same time it gets crushed, it will activate the invincibility flags, but skip the crushing, since the Pikmin is in a state where it cannot be harmed (i.e. grabbed by a leader).
}}

===Odd-colored Pellet Posies===
{{main|Pellet#Other colors}}

On some areas, right after the day starts, the player can pan the [[radar]] to where certain [[Pellet Posies]] are, and by looking at them on the TV screen, they will be able to see that their pellets have weird colors. The most common place to try to this on is the corpse of the [[Quaggled Mireclops]].

==Aesthetic==
===Alph empty dialog - Bulborb===
{{ glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes
| effects = Causes Alph to have an empty line of dialogue.
| prerequisites = Have played for a few game-days, and haven't been to the [[Garden of Hope]] in several days.
| howto = After not being to the Garden of Hope in a while, simply walk up to the sleeping [[Red Bulborb]] with [[Brittany]] or [[Charlie]]. The game will lock-on to the Bulborb automatically, and a text box of dialog for Alph will appear, but he won't say anything.
| notes = The exact requirements are not known, but being in a day past 15 seems to do the trick.
}}

===Alph empty dialog - Fire-Breathing Feast===
{{ glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = Alph Empty Dialog Glitch.jpeg
| effects = Causes Alph to have an empty line of dialog.
| prerequisites = Killing the [[Armored Mawdad]] without collecting or going near enough to the [[Fire-Breathing Feast]] to trigger a line of dialog from Alph or Brittany, and rescuing Captain Charlie.
| howto = Simply walk up to the [[Fire-Breathing Feast]] with Captain Charlie, and an empty line of dialog from Alph will appear.
}}

===Bottom of the map===
{{ glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = Tropical Wilds map bottom.jpg | other = [[:File:Tropical Wilds map bottom radar.jpg|Radar position for the demonstration image]]
| effects = Causes the player to see the solid blue bottom of a [[segment]] of the map, with parts obscured by the [[radar]] fog.
| prerequisites = Have reached the [[Sandbelching Meerslug]].
| howto = Deactivate [[Off-TV Play]] so you can use the television screen. Go to the Tropical Wilds, open up the radar, and make sure it's in the mode where North points up. Scroll to the segment of the map with the corridor that leads to the Sandbelching Meerslug's arena. Once there, scroll down till you hit the limit. Slowly scroll down and right until you're past that barrier, and start scrolling down and left to slide against another barrier. After that one, scroll left to slide against the third radar barrier. Keep scrolling left slowly, whilst letting the Go Here! icon also move downward on its own. Look at the television screen, and you will eventually see fuzzy blue or gray shapes. You can keep exploring for a bit as you go left, but when you go too far down, or if you scroll too close to the [[Calcified Crushblat]]'s segment of the map, the game will swap radar models with that segment, ending the glitch.
| notes = The patterns visible match the radar's fog, indicating that what the player can see is likely the bottom of the map, visible in the Sandbelching Meerslug's corridor segment. On a sunny day, the floor will appear blue, but it will appear gray on a [[rain]]y day.
}}

===Brittany empty dialog - Charlie's path===
{{ glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://twitter.com/EspyoPT/status/1330649190586671104 Twitter video]
| effects = Causes Brittany to have an empty line of dialogue.
| prerequisites = Have not been through the path that Charlie takes on day 1.
| howto = Go near the [[Spotcap]]s that Charlie had busted on day 1 as Brittany.
}}

===Confused Pikmin===
{{image|Better shot. Winged Pikmin are hard to see at the best of times, and the rain's not helping.}}
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = ConfusedPikmin.jpg
|effects = Pikmin following a [[leader]] will attempt to board the S.S. Drake instead of the Master Onion.
|howto = Have an inactive leader with Pikmin in their party pass from one [[segment]] of an area to another, through the use of the [[Go Here!]] command. Then, end the [[day]] as they are passing through.
|notes = An attempt to recreate the glitch has had the Pikmin not return to the landing site automatically. For best results, enter the corridor west of the [[Twilight River]] landing site, past the [[paper bag]]. [[Winged Pikmin]] will reach the Drake before the cutscene ends.
|explanation = During the location transitions, Pikmin and leaders are programmed to follow a strict "follow the leader's path" logic system. This doesn't get cleared when the day is terminated, which results in the Pikmin continuing to blindly follow the leaders when they find themselves at the landing site for the end of the day's cutscene.
}}

===Corrupted radar preview===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = Mission Mode corrupted radar preview.jpg
|effects = Shows a corrupted radar on the GamePad for a split second, using the object layout of [[Twilight Hollow Remix]], but with bits and pieces of the [[Distant Tundra Remix]]'s radar.
|prerequisites = Have the first [[downloadable content]] pack; the one that adds the maps from [[Tropical Forest Remix]] to [[Shaded Garden Remix]].
|howto = Set the game up to have [[Off-TV Play]] disabled. Enter the Collect Treasure! [[Mission Mode]] menu. Without entering any mission's briefing screen, simply pass the cursor from one mission's button to the next, letting the game load the radar preview on the GamePad every time. Go from the Tropical Forest Remix button to the Shaded Garden Remix button in this way. Finally, with the cursor on the Shaded Garden Remix button, hold left so that the cursor speeds to the Tropical Forest Remix button. As you do so, pay attention to the GamePad, and when the game shows the Twilight Hollow Remix radar pattern, it will quickly show a corrupted version of the Silver Lake Remix's radar textures, for a split-second. If you cannot get it to work the first time, try again.
}}

===Drowning cutscene glitch===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = P3 Drowning Cutscene Glitch.jpg
|effects = Shows the fire effect and the water effect overlap incorrectly.
|prerequisites = Never had a Pikmin drown before.
|howto = Go to the cave with [[Pyroclasmic Slooch]]es on the [[Distant Tundra]]. Let the Slooches draw some trails of fire and get a Pikmin to start drowning. If the positioning and the [[camera]] angle line up, the fire trail will appear in the same place as the water from the camera's line of sight, but the two will overlap in odd ways.
}}

===Floating Pikmin with a paper bag===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | youtube = mPlt_VR6GO8&t=19m15s | vcaption = Demonstration of the glitch, at 19:15
|effects = Has Pikmin floating in the air momentarily during a [[cutscene]].
|prerequisites = Have a [[paper bag]] in its original position.
|howto = When you're behind a paper bag, throw some Pikmin on top of it, and then have other Pikmin push the bag. During the cutscene, the Pikmin that were on the bag will remain in their place, and float in the air when the bag is no longer under them. When the cutscene ends, the Pikmin fall back down.
|explanation = During a cutscene like that one, other Pikmin do not move, as to focus exclusively on the movement of the paper bag. This includes vertical movement, so the Pikmin do not fall.
}}

===Frozen whistle===
[[File:P3D Frozen Whistle Glitch Sunset Bulborb.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Several whistle circles in the [[Cutscene#Sunset|sunset cutscene]].]]
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmful | p3 = No | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://www.reddit.com/r/Pikmin/comments/opk3ul/whistle_freeze_glitch_pikmin_3_deluxe_more_info/ Reddit post]
|effects = Makes player 1's whistle effects stay on screen, makes the third leader copy player 1, and makes the Mysterious Life-Form not appear.
|prerequisites = Have unlocked the [[Formidable Oak]] and have not seen the [[Mysterious Life-Form]].
|howto = This glitch must be done in 2-player mode, on a save file where the cave of the Formidable Oak has been entered but has not been completed. At the start of the day, player 1 must wait at the landing site and player 2 must go with Brittany and the third leader up to Olimar. Charge Pikmin onto Olimar with player 2.
|notes = After the cutscene, player 1's leader will be teleported to the top of the hill. Any time player 1 uses the whistle, the ring effect will stay on-screen permanently. The third leader that was a part of player 2's squad will do the exact same movements as player 1. The Mysterious Life-Form will not appear, though the space where it would appear can be locked-onto. Other strange effects can occur.
}}

===Idle Pikmin counter during day end===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Harmless | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://twitter.com/QuoteBalrog/status/1330207245758590982 Twitter video] | other = [https://twitter.com/QuoteBalrog/status/1330931491811979266 Twitter video with the execution]
|effects = Makes the idle Pikmin counter appear when the ship's lift-off cutscene begins, just before the fruit and juice screens. The counter stays on-screen throughout the day end state, even when a leader is writing their [[Pikmin 3 voyage log|voyage log]] entry.
|howto = When the sunset warning appears, the letters "Hurry Up!" will show up on-screen. The exact moment they stop animating, pause the game and end the day.
}}

===Infinite boss music===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = No | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://twitter.com/EspyoPT/status/1320144323317354497 Twitter video]
|effects = Makes it so the boss music continues playing outside of a boss arena. It will repeat the attack gesture. The music change to mid-day at the Garden of Hope won't update the music, but returning to the arena will.
|prerequisites = Have an undefeated boss in the area.
|howto = Enable co-op play in Story Mode. Then, have one leader outside the boss arena, and another inside. The leader inside should be attacked and killed by the boss.
}}

===Invisible geometry===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = P3 invisible geometry.jpg
|effects = Hides the [[area]]'s geometry, making only the objects visible.
|howto = Enter an area. If you want to see the geometry disappear on a specific part of the area, make sure you're on a different [[segment]] than that (e.g. if you want to see the glitch happen in a cave, go outside, and vice-versa). Disable [[Off-TV Play]] if it's not already disabled, and use the [[radar]]'s panning to place the camera on the location you want to see the geometry disappear. Look at the TV screen, press any button that makes a leader perform an action (like {{button|wiiu|l}}) and {{button|wiiu|home}} at the same time. You should see the world disappear, although the objects stay. You'll quickly be covered by the Home screen, so to get a better look, you can, for instance, go on the web browser and press {{button|wiiu|x}} to show the game on the TV screen. The timing for this is very strict, of only {{frames|1}} frame, but since you can try again right away if you fail, you should get it to happen quickly.
|explanation = When using the panning feature, the game switches geometry models in order to be able to show the player what's in the other parts of the area. When gameplay resumes, it hides all models of the segments of the map the player is not on, and returns the camera to the leaders. Because the camera doesn't go there instantaneously, but takes one or two frames before it's near the leaders, there is a small window where the camera is outside of the segment the leaders are at, but with the geometry hidden.
}}

===Invisible Pikmin===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Depends | p3 = Yes | youtube = rl5aWgW32GE | image = InvisiblePikmin.jpeg
|effects = Have Pikmin on the field that are invisible. They still behave like normal.
|prerequisites = Have at least two types of Pikmin unlocked.
|howto = First, get out 100 (or less, although 100 is advised) of the type Pikmin you ''don't'' want invisible. Afterwards, go back into the Onion menu and deposit some Pikmin and take out a few of species of Pikmin you want invisible. Now, right as the Pikmin go inside the [[Onion]], use the whistle. If done correctly, there will be a few invisible Pikmin of the type that was originally going to come out of the Onion.
|explanation = When a Pikmin is going in the Onion, its model becomes invisible (so it doesn't appear to clip inside the Onion), and only on the next few [[frame]]s does the Pikmin actually get removed from the field. Whistling a Pikmin in this state will not fix its model, making it remain invisible.
}}

===Odd carrying positions===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Low | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | p3d = Yes| image = P3 Odd Carrying Positions Glitch.jpg | youtube = GUBOwr6N7jI&t=775 | vcaption = Demonstration of the glitch, at 12:55
|effects = Makes Pikmin carry an object in a strange position, such as upside-down.
|howto = Throw a Pikmin at an object that has fallen down, such as one falling from a [[Medusal Slurker]] or in a [[dirt mound]]. The timing is difficult, making this a glitch hard to do intentionally.
|notes = The glitch only seems to work on objects that require 1 Pikmin to carry.
|explanation = Once an object, such as a bomb rock, falls down onto the ground, Pikmin will chase after it and pick it up. However, if a Pikmin manages to pick up the object before it reaches its natural position, it accepts that as the natural position of carrying. The Pikmin are told to stick to a specific location and angle relative to the object, which could result in them being placed incorrectly.
}}

===Olimar's Comeback prologue video cropping===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = N/A | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://www.reddit.com/r/Pikmin/comments/jotwi3/anyone_having_this_problem_with_the_cutscenes_on/ Reddit post]
|effects = Makes the video [[cutscene]] at the end of [[The Ship Restored]] play cropped. Only the top-left footage will be visible, though the subtitles will be in the correct spot.
|howto = Simply begin the cutscene while the console is in handheld mode. Playing in docked mode will play the cutscene in full. Because the Nintendo Switch Lite is always handheld, this effect always happens on that console.
|notes = To view the cutscene, one only has to finish [[The Ship Restored]], even if they lose all Pikmin or leaders. One easy way to do this is to let a leader bump against the [[Pyroclasmic Slooch]] constantly. Swapping console modes midway through will keep the same cropped or full behavior.
|explanation = Since the video resolution is smaller on the console's own screen, the video does not play every part of the footage. Normally, the video output would be shrunk to fit the resolution, but that does not happen here.
}}

===Onion cutscene camera glitch===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = Winged Onion area geometry unload.jpg
|effects = Causes the player to be able to see unloaded area [[segment]] geometry, because the camera fails to move to the segment of the area where the current leader is and the geometry is loaded. Although the geometry won't be visible, some details will still appear, like the Onion's beam, the Pikmin flowers, or the skybox.
|prerequisites = Be at the location of the Winged Onion or the Blue Onion, with it still entrapped.
|howto = Leave one leader inside a segment of the area that isn't the segment with the Onion, like inside a cave. Have the other leaders at the Onion's location, ready to free it. The idea is to start the Onion cutscene when the leader inside the cave is the active one. For the Winged Onion, the best way is to throw two Rock Pikmin at the Arachnode to bring its health down, let it scuttle and rest, throw three Red Pikmin at it, and quickly change to the leader inside the cave. For the Blue Onion, simply throw three Winged Pikmin at the Flukeweed and switch to the faraway leader before they finish pulling out the Onion. When the Onion's cutscene is over, the game will prepare to go back to the leader that was selected, and will load that segment, and unload the segment of the area where the Onion is. However, the camera will stay in the same spot, meaning you'll be able to see the unloaded geometry. This effect will remain until any controller input is made, or until one of the idle leaders plucks the new sprout and the new Pikmin type introduction cutscene starts. So to maximize the effects, make sure that the leaders are far away from the Onion when you switch out, so that they don't pluck the sprout.
|explanation = The Onion cutscenes erroneously do not have code to move the camera to the current leader when they are over, despite having the code to move the radar to the right place, unload and load the correct chunk of the area, etc.
}}

===Pikmin out at night===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = Pikmin out at night P3.jpg | icaption = The Pikmin on the bottom-left portion of the screen have been affected by the glitch.
|effects = Makes a Pikmin stay idle during the nighttime cutscene, and then vanish when it's time for takeoff.
|prerequisites = Have leaf or bud Pikmin in your party.
|howto = Have a drop of [[nectar]] on one of the [[Onion]]'s legs, and have leaf or bud Pikmin with you. The best way to do this is to knock on an [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]] when it is near the Onion; this can be done on the [[Garden of Hope]] and [[Twilight River]]. End the day from the [[Menu#Pause|pause menu]]. The Pikmin in your party will make their way to the Onion's legs, but leaves and buds should stop by the nectar and begin drinking it. When they're done, they'll remain idle on their spot, and the Onion will fly off without them. When that happens, they will vanish instantly.
|notes = This does not affect the Pikmin count; the Pikmin that go idle are not counted as dead. [[Glitches in Pikmin#Pikmin out at night|A similar glitch]] can also happen in {{p1}}, although the method is different.
|explanation = There is no code to handle the case in which a Pikmin going for the Onion would touch a bit of nectar, given the unlikeliness of it happening.
}}

===Pikmin with a bomb rock pose===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = Bomb rock pose glitch.jpg
|effects = Makes a Red Pikmin hold its arms out as if holding a [[bomb rock]], without the bomb rock being there.
|prerequisites = Have access to both bomb rocks and [[fire geyser]]s.
|howto = Get a Red Pikmin to carry a bomb rock. Then, make the Pikmin walk through a fire geyser while still on your group. The bomb will be dropped and ignited, but the Pikmin will keep its pose.
|notes = Only the Pikmin's animation is affected. Throwing the Pikmin or dismissing will make its animation return to normal.
|explanation = On the code that handles Pikmin dropping a bomb rock because of the fire, there is no code to update its animation. Other situations in which the Pikmin drops a bomb rock use different code.
}}

===Stretched Burrowing Snagret===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = Stretched Burrowing Snagret.jpg | youtube = GTF6-UC0RWM
|effects = Stretches out the [[Burrowing Snagret]]'s corpse. If it is stretched too much, it becomes invisible.
|prerequisites = The [[Sequence break#Early Winged Pikmin|Early Winged Pikmin glitch]] has to be done.
|howto = First of all, do the [[Sequence break#Early Winged Pikmin|Early Winged Pikmin glitch]], so the blue bridge won't be built. Then the [[paper bag]] in front of the [[Winged Onion]] must be pushed. After that, the [[Burrowing Snagret]] must be defeated and its corpse must be carried by 10 [[Winged Pikmin]] or more. These Pikmin will be blocked in front of the bridge which is unfinished. Whistle them and order them to carry the Burrowing Snagret again; they will pass above the lilypad with the head of the Snavian but its foot will be stuck to the [[lily pad]]. The Winged Pikmin will keep carrying the corpse, and the body between the stuck point and the head will begin stretching as the Pikmin carry it forward. If it is stretched too far, the body will eventually turn invisible. Despite this, the corpse will still be harvested once brought to the [[Onion#Master|Master Onion]].
}}

===T-pose Pikmin===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | image = Pikmin T-pose.jpg
|effects = Shows a Pikmin in a T-pose.
|prerequisites = None
|howto = Go to a Pikmin sprout and choose to [[pluck]] it. Just when the leader's hands make contact with the Pikmin, the creature will be shown in a T-pose (also known as blind pose or reference pose), meaning its arms will be stretched out horizontally. It will also appear at ground level instead of being underground. This lasts only for a single [[frame]]. With the [[KopPad#Camera|KopPad's camera]] and a secondary [[leader]], it is possible to see it better, especially if you snap a photo.
|explanation = When a Pikmin is plucked, its "sprout" object is removed from the world, and its "normal" object is created. It takes one frame for the object's animation to be set, so for a single frame, it uses the default animation pose, which is a T-pose, commonly used during development to make it easier to see and work with the model. This T-pose is set at ground-level instead of submerged underground.
}}

===T-pose Scornet Maestro===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | p3d = N/A | image = Scornet Maestro T-pose.jpg | youtube = MHackX1Upt8
|effects = Shows the [[Scornet Maestro]] in a T-pose.
|prerequisites = Have a save file with any day after the defeat of the Scornet Maestro.
|howto = From the day selection screen, pick a day where you have not met the Scornet Maestro, preferably the first day in which it's possible to visit the [[Twilight River]]. Use the [[KopPad]]'s radar app and pan to where the Scornet Maestro's arena is. If it's not already disabled, turn off Off-TV Play so you can use the GamePad and the TV. From the TV, you should be able to see the Scornet Maestro's shadow in a T-pose (with its arms spread out sideways). If you gently pan the camera around, you'll be able to bump into the Scornet Maestro itself, which will be roughly at camera-height. By unpausing the gameplay using the button on the top-right corner of the KopPad, the boss will begin to slowly drift downwards, always in the same pose, stopping when it reaches the ground.
|notes = Something similar also happens with the Vehemoth Phosbat, in that it stays in place in its transparent state. It is not clear if it is in a T-pose or not, and unpausing the game with the KopPad's button will make it move normally.
|explanation = Unlike other bosses, the Scornet Maestro is not hidden when the area is loaded and the enemy is not being used. This normally would not be a problem, as players would never be able to see it in its default pose (the T-pose), seeing as panning the radar to its arena would just reveal a black fog, due to the [[segment]] never having been entered before. But if on the same save file, the boss had been encountered once, the arena will be visible on any day, including a day where the Maestro appears in its T-pose.

===Unrestricted radar===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | youtube = zFL_hjfVtk4
|effects = In [[Defeat Bosses!]], allows the player to pan the [[radar]] anywhere around the area, even out of bounds, instead of being confined by the arena. The TV screen's top-down view updates accordingly.
|prerequisites = Have at least one Defeat Bosses! mission available.
|howto = Start a boss mission. Then, simply pan the radar around. It will be unrestricted.
|notes = This will not work if the mission is started from the pause menu's "Retry" option; this will just restrict the radar to the arena.
|explanation = The code that sets the radar's boundaries is not run on the "mission entry" code, but is run on the "mission retry" code.
}}

===Warped sunset music===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes
|effects = Makes the sunset theme sound warped and low-quality, as if played through a speaker.
|prerequisites = Be on day two or further.
|howto = When the [[day]] is about to end, pause the game via the [[radar]], and unpause it using the Alph icon on the top-right corner. When the sunset cutscene starts, it will have the same filter applied to it as the area song when heard through the KopPad's unpause feature.
|notes = This audio is heard from the TV alone, or GamePad in Off-TV Play.
|explanation = An audio filter is applied to the current area's song when the game is unpaused using Alph's icon. This change in the music is meant to reflect how the action is still happening, but the player is not in it. However, there is nothing to handle a sunset during this time, so the music filter is never removed.

==Misc.==
===Alph tutorial softlock===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmful | p3 = No | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://twitter.com/EspyoPT/status/1344713668471111680 Twitter video]
|effects = Makes the game unable to proceed past the Pikmin whistling segment in Alph's tutorial.
|howto = Change to stick-only cursor controls. When Alph's tutorial begins and the player is tasked with whistling Pikmin, hold the analog stick all the way down. The cursor will jump about various places as it moves, and will eventually settle in place to Alph's left. Then, very gently tilt the stick right until the cursor is no longer in view and points below and to the right of Alph. Then, hold the whistle up to its maximum reach in order to whistle the fourth Pikmin, hiding behind the pot. Finally, whistle the three starter Pikmin all at once.
|notes = After this, not much else can be done other than moving the cursor, whistling, and resetting the game from the Switch's Home menu.
|explanation = The tutorial is programmed to only advance to the lock-on stage when three Pikmin are in the leader's group. By whistling the hidden one first, and then whistling the other three together, the counter jumps from 1 to 4 instantly, never going through three.
}}

===Blue Onion bump glitch===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmless | p3 = Yes | p3d = yes | youtube = bbo9tgIKSs4&t=02m57s | vcaption = Demonstration of the glitch, at 2:57
|effects = Makes a [[leader]] slide away during the [[Blue Onion]]'s discovery [[cutscene]].
|prerequisites = Be on the day where you can open the Blue Onion, or have a save file that is after that day so you can return to it.
|howto = Throw five [[Winged Pikmin]] to the [[Flukeweed]] atop the Onion. As the Pikmin are pulling it, decide where it is that you want to make your leader slide to. The depression in the water to the south of the Onion's pond is a good place to aim for, as the leader will slide further because of the downwards slope. It is best to aim the camera that way. As the Onion is being pulled out, place your leader next to the Onion, on the side of the place you want to go towards. Make sure your leader is bumping against the Onion. When it gets pulled out, move your character towards the Onion's center while it is airborne. When it falls down, it'll bump against the leader, which will be sent sliding in the opposite direction.
|notes = The closer to the center of the Onion the leader is, the less distance they will travel, so it is recommended not to walk too far into the Onion's landing position.
|explanation = When the Onion lands, it pushes the leader. Because the landing triggers the cutscene, and because during the cutscene the game expects the leaders to be standing still, their friction must use a value different from the norm, which allows them to slide.
}}

===Buried Pond object breakdown===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Unknown | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://twitter.com/video_storage/status/1339089005523030019 Twitter video]
|effects = Makes an object that's on top of a [[lily pad]] behave erratically.
|prerequisites = Have [[Buried Pond]] unlocked.
|howto = Go on a layout of Buried Pond with lily pads. Have Winged Pikmin carry an object, such as a [[Bulborb]]'s corpse, on top of a lily pad, and then whistle them off so they drop it on the lily pad. At this point the object will start sliding around. By having one player throw Winged Pikmin at the object now, but not enough Pikmin that they'd start carrying, the other player can throw Winged Pikmin to the point where the object starts to be carried. This results in the carrying numbers oscillating quickly, as well as the object shaking and taking weird routes. Using a [[charge]] to get more Pikmin to grab onto the object makes the situation worse.
}}

===Corrupted data file===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmful | p3 = No | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://mobile.twitter.com/TheRealBobby0/status/1315014662249828352 Twitter video] | image = Corrupted data file.jpg
|effects = Makes the data file Plucking #1 show up without an image, and unable to be backed out of. Afterwards, makes this screen overlay everything during normal gameplay, except for the [[HUD]], [[menu]]s, message boxes, and some special effects.
|prerequisites = Be on the hard or ultra-spicy [[difficulties]].
|howto = Play through Alph's part of day 1 until you push the [[cardboard box]]. After you do so, open the [[KopPad]], enter the Exploration Notes app, go to the Controls category, and choose the Plucking #1 file. The scene will enter a glitched state where the image won't show. Press the KopPad button to exit and return to gameplay with this screen active.
|notes =<br>
** The day can be completed in this fashion &ndash; you can control Alph like normal, and figure out where he is using the [[mini radar]]. When the Pikmin growth chart finishes rendering, it will be impossible to interact with the game, requiring you to close the game.
** Pressing a button that switches the current data file left or right will stop the glitch. Pressing the button that would normally back out of the data file onto the data file selection menu is fine, though.
** While the glitch is active, you can press the KopPad button to open the radar app, and press again to continue playing with the glitch.
** Co-op mode will work like normal, but the second player's mini radar won't appear behind the glitched overlay.
** All other data files show up like normal and do not trigger a glitch.
** Picking a different file first and then attempting to open the Plucking #1 file will not cause the glitch to happen.
}}

===Crimson Banquet glitch===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Low | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Yes | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://i.imgur.com/x1ejtPf.mp4 Imgur video]
|effects = Makes Pikmin carrying part of the [[Crimson Banquet]] survive the sunset. The pieces then become irretrievable the next day. Although it's also possible for missing pieces to spawn in random locations the next day.
|howto = After defeating the [[Sandbelching Meerslug]], the [[Crimson Banquet]] pieces will scatter over the arena. If they are not collected that day, it is possible that one or more pieces will not appear there the next day. This can happen regardless of whether the Meerslug body is harvested.
|notes = Replaying the day the Meerslug is fought is the only way to fix the glitch.
|explanation = When fruits that have been moved from their initial spawn location are placed on subsequent days, the new location is not exact, but merely an approximation of where they were left the previous day. Due to the dynamic nature of the Meerslug arena's floor for the purposes of the Meerslug's attacks, this may cause some parts to respawn in invalid location, and thus deleted afterwards.
}}

===Dirt wall glitch===
{{game help|p3|Find out if this works on other dirt walls, and provide a video of the glitch in action.}}
{{glitch | reproducibility = Low | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Yes
|effects = Pikmin clipping through the [[dirt wall]] in the cave near [[Alph]]'s crash site, instantly dying in the [[pit|abyss]].
|howto = On [[day]] 1, approach the dirt wall inside the cave one must pass through to reach the [[S.S. Drake]]. Throw many Pikmin near one of its columns, and a Pikmin may clip through the ground and die.
|notes = This is the only way Pikmin can die in the tutorial, as they aren't supposed to. If it repeatedly happens, a Pikmin extinction can occur, which may cause broken game behavior. Doing so is very difficult, however, since the glitch is hard to reproduce and only one Pikmin is known to die at a time from it.
|explanation = The sharp wedge of the dirt wall might cause Pikmin to clip through, especially when they are pushing each other apart to make space. It is unknown why all cases are from the one specific wall, but it could be due to its specific placement.
}}

===Double Charlie===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Low | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Yes | p3d = Yes | youtube = hdCXAwFM
| effects = After defeating the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] as [[Charlie]], a second Charlie will join the party which will not be playable but may be thrown around as normal until the day ends.
| prerequisites = Perform the [[Sequence break#Day 1 escape|day 1 escape glitch]] or the same ones in the video above.
| howto = Perform precise clips to climb up and around roots near the tin can in Charlie's starting area, carefully run over the roof of the zone for the intended cave entrance, and enter the cave blocked off by the crystals. Using bomb rocks found near where the [[Spotty Bulbear]] would be, retrieve a pellet from the crystals and have the [[Yellow Pikmin]] take it close to but not inside the cave to the Yellow Onion. Take your Pikmin to the spot where the higher [[Joustmite]] would be and throw them in place. Make your way back to the pellet left near Brittany's cave and move it close to the root in order to clip up onto the root. Walk around the root to the left and clip through the central root to get further out of bounds, follow a precise path to a point near the exit of the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] boss arena and fall out of bounds to fall back in-bounds at the exit. Call to the Pikmin left where the [[Joustmite]] would be and go inside. The fight can be won as normal; completing the bridge is the easiest method to do so. Upon defeat, Charlie will emerge as normal, and a broken cutscene will play.
| notes =<br>
** After retrieving the second Charlie, the [[KopPad]] still can't be used and the player still can't [[charge]]. However, upon bringing back the [[Heroine's Tear]] to the ship, the day can be ended.
** Ending the day in this state means that the game thinks that the player has rescued Charlie and can move on to revisit [[Tropical Wilds]], but having never obtained the primary Onion, the game is [[softlock]]ed.
** Various tinkering is possible to retrieve the Yellow Onion, but the Onion merges with the primary Onion which the player doesn't have access to, so it becomes also unavailable.
** As with the original glitch previously mentioned, you can activate a broken cutscene with the Red Pikmin as if you had just plucked one for the first time in [[Tropical Wilds]], but the specific Pikmin used for the cutscene dies and any others that are not in the ground will die at the end of the day.
** Going into and back out of the [[segment]] of the area with the S.S. Drake in [[Tropical Wilds]] will trigger a cutscene that will crash the game.
** Going into Brittany's cave where the [[Yellow Pikmin]] are discovered and back out of it and ''not'' skipping the cutscene will crash the game, but skipping the cutscene will activate the sun meter and allow the player to end the day. Ending the day with one Charlie comes with its own various glitches.
| explanation = The game assumes that the player can't possibly reach and defeat the boss without being Alph and Brittany, and so upon defeat, Charlie is made available. The player can't switch to him or use any of their Y-controls at this time, however, only able to throw him until the day is over.

====Revive the Vehemoth Phosbat====
{{todo|Document more side effects and add an explanation.}}
{{glitch | reproducibility = Low | consequences = Harmless | p3 = No | p3d = Yes | youtube = 5xCMhVVXfUg
|effects = Have both a living [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] and the [[Heroine's Tear]] on the field at the same time.
|howto = Perform the setup for [[#Tropical Wilds storage|Tropical Wilds storage]] and then [[Sequence break#Day 1 escape|day 1 escape]], and kill the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]]. Return to the Phosbat cave to be sent to the [[Tropical Wilds]], and retry the day. From there, play normally until you reach the [[Distant Tundra]]. Once there, activate the [[electrode]] in the cave before the Vehemoth Phosbat's arena. Re-enter the Distant Tundra, and the Vehemoth Phosbat will have returned to life with a single [[health]] point.
}}

====Tropical Wilds storage====
{{glitch | reproducibility = Low | consequences = Helpful | p3 = Yes | p3d = Yes | youtube = 5xCMhVVXfUg
|effects = Activates the cutscene that sends you to the [[Tropical Wilds]] even after progressing the story past the cutscene.
|howto = On day 1, kill every [[Phosbat]] in the cave while traveling to the bridge segment of the area. Then, perform the [[Sequence break#Day 1 escape|day 1 escape glitch]] and set story progress as needed. When you are ready, re-enter the cave where the Phosbats were first found.
|notes = Only works on day 1.
}}

===Floating fruit===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Yes | image = P3 Floating Fruit Glitch.jpg | icaption = Demonstration of the glitch on [[The Rustyard]].
|effects = Fruits will hover in the air and Pikmin will not grab onto it.
|prerequisites = Find a fruit that is located on a ledge that is oddly shaped, like the one in the picture.
|howto = Just as the object is about to fall onto the lower ground, call back all Pikmin carrying the object. It is possible that the object will be stuck in the air beyond the ledge.
|notes = The object will most likely remain irretrievable afterwards, so attempt the glitch where it is not harmful, like [[Mission Mode]].
|explanation = There is a certain small area located at the end of the ledge when an object is being carried back to base, acting like a sort of ramp so that the Pikmin do not fall straight down. Since Pikmin cannot actually walk on this "ramp" of sorts, the Pikmin will try to attempt to carry the fruit but won't actually be able to. Winged Pikmin, of course, will be able to free the object.
}}

===Golden Shaggy Long Legs glitch===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Low | consequences = Harmless | p3 = No | p3d = Yes | youtube = CvGWferFO-g
|effects = Makes the golden Shaggy Long Legs in [[The Ship Restored]] quickly move to the side of the map, moving it out of bounds.
|howto = The specifics are unknown, but in the known recorded instance, the golden Baldy Long Legs is led to a certain spot, is killed, and the radar is activated for about a second. }}
When the golden Shaggy Long Legs is spawned while the Baldy Long Legs is in its death animation, the glitch occurs. Although it could be coincidential, the placement of the cursor on the map might have something to do with it, as the arachnorb relocates to where the cursor once was.

===Infinite dirt mound===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Depends | p3 = Yes | p3d = Yes | youtube = ubo-pdTZyR0
|effects = Allows the player to take out more items than intended from a [[dirt mound]].
|howto = Go to a dirt mound with more than one item inside. Throw Pikmin inside to dig the objects out. At any point after they dug out the first object, but before they are done digging the last object, whistle them back. Then, send them to work on the same dirt mound. When it starts shaking, it will shoot out another one of the objects. Whistle the Pikmin out as soon as this happens (though the timing is pretty lenient), and repeat as many times as needed.
|notes =<br>
** Although it can be performed with any number of Pikmin, just one is recommended, since whistling several Pikmin out of a mound will make them keep digging for a few more seconds.
** The glitch does not work with mounds with one item. Those will just collapse as soon as that item is removed.
** Similarly, if the mound already spat out its intended items, attempting to let it spit out two things when performing the glitch will just result in the mound spitting one (one of the glitched extra objects), and then collapse, ending the glitch.
** Most objects that come out of mounds have a limit on how many of them can be on-stage at once. For instance, in [[The Rustyard]], there can only be three pellets that came from the dirt mound on-stage at once.
** For mounds that spit bridge [[fragment]]s onto fragment piles:
*** The player can keep creating extra pieces, and grow the pile beyond its normal limit. After 60 fragments the pile doesn't visibly change.
*** Once the bridge the fragments belong to is fully built, if one Pikmin carries an excess fragment, it will get to around to the bridge's midpoint, then simply walk in a certain direction and keep going forward, eventually getting stuck walking against some wall.
*** If more Pikmin carrying excess pieces exist alongside the previously mentioned excess Pikmin, then those ones will reach the bridge's midpoint, and instead go in a random direction. Most of them, after a brief moment (and sometimes instantly), will teleport somewhere unknown out of bounds (unknown during gameplay, but the [[replay]] mode claims they go near the Onion) and die shortly after. Others however will go through a wall and keep going until they perish.
*** Whistling Pikmin that are carrying bridge fragments from a glitched pile will make that pile update as to not go over the number of fragments it was supposed to have legitimately.
*** Though rare, the Pikmin's unintended behavior with the fragments can cause a [[crash]].{{cite web|https://twitter.com/Fuka_superior/status/1293574576299900939|Twitter video|Twitter|published={{date|12|August|2020}}|retrieved={{date|12|August|2020}}}}

===Knocked out Alph as the active leader===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Medium | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Yes | youtube = UO8-5q1XKec
|effects = Gives control to [[Alph]] while he is inside the [[S.S. Drake]], knocked out. The only thing that can be done is move the [[camera]] and the [[cursor]].
|howto = On the first day at the [[Formidable Oak]], knock out Alph as the first thing you do. This can be achieved by having Charlie [[Throw|hold]] him at the northeast corner of the Plasm Wraith's arena, against the ledge from which the boss appears, and then facing the southwest, and releasing him. He should fall off into the [[pit]] and lose some of his [[health]]. Once he is knocked out, get some Pikmin and approach the Plasm Wraith and Olimar at the top. After the cutscenes where the Pikmin try to carry Olimar and choose to follow Brittany, the game gives control to Alph, who is actually knocked out and at the S.S. Drake.
|explanation = The sequence of events at the Formidable Oak doesn't expect Alph to be knocked out, since that is impossible during normal gameplay. So the script simply gives control to Alph after the Brittany "flag" cutscene, without bothering to check if he's even usable.
}}

===Paused timer===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Helpful | p3 = Yes | p3d = Yes | demonstration = [https://twitter.com/EspyoPT/status/1445456064355307523 Twitter video]
|effects = Momentarily pauses the timer while everything else keeps going, allowing the player to stall the timer as they wait for Pikmin to finish tasks.
|prerequisites = Have [[Beastly Caverns]], [[Creature Hunting]], [[Team Monster Hunt]], [[Channel Gone Dry]], [[Looking for Louie]], [[Big Fruit Carnival]], [[Another Part Found]], or [[The Ship Restored]] unlocked.
|howto = In single-player, in one of the stages mentioned above, simply go through a [[portal]]. You can go back-and-forth through the same two segments to stall the timer further.
}}

===Pellet seed count glitch===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Yes | youtube = jfOKRV8DKxQ | vcaption = Demonstration of the glitch at 0:28.
|effects = [[Onion]]s will produce fewer Pikmin seeds than intended when retrieving a [[pellet]] carried by [[Purple Pikmin]] or [[White Pikmin]], even if said pellet matches the Onion's color.
|prerequisites = Play in the [[Beastly Caverns]] in [[Mission Mode]] or in [[Bingo Battle]] and collect Purple or White Pikmin.
|howto = Order some Purple or White Pikmin to carry a pellet to an Onion matching its color, without other Pikmin types interfering. Once the pellet has been carried to the Onion, new Pikmin seeds will be created, albeit less than normal.
|explanation = Purple or White Pikmin have no Onion. As such, they carry enemies and pellets back to a random Onion, provided no other Pikmin types interfere. Unlike what happens in ''Pikmin 2'', the digits that normally appear above an object that Pikmin are carrying are purple or white here, which could trick the game into thinking that the pellet's color does not match the Onion's. The video provided with this explanation shows what should normally happen (blue Onion creating 5 Pikmin seeds from a 5-pellet), then how the glitch occurs.
}}

===Plasm Wraith push out===
{{glitch | reproducibility = Low | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Yes | p3d = Yes | youtube = 5xpr3p8rLnU
|effects = Enter the [[Formidable Oak]] during the [[Plasm Wraith]] boss fight.
|prerequisites = Get a large amount of plasm to fall out (easiest to destroy an elemental plasm or to ground the boss (attack it with a large amount of Winged or Yellow Pikmin) when it levitates).
|howto = Fight the Plasm Wraith as normal until its health is down 1/3 of the way. When it starts to send out the elemental plasms, destroy them and stand in the puddles until the boss reabsorbs them. Very rarely, the plasm should push the player through the floor and out of the level; the player will lose 1/3 of their health, but will respawn in the final puzzle room of the [[Formidable Oak]]'s dungeon.
|notes = The room will appear like it does in story mode but with no water, enemies, or [[Common Glowcap]]s, leaving it totally dark. As the game is still in Mission Mode, the exits are blocked and the room becomes effectively inescapable. The battle outside will be completely paused until the player switches leaders. There are also reports of the outside area becoming dark (like during sunset) outside as well.
}}

===Quick day start softlock===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Yes | youtube = d3pIj2ggzrA
|effects = Causes the game to [[softlock]] in the small cutscene that shows the S.S. Drake and the Onion flying on to the planet, before the area's [[loading]] screen.
|prerequisites = Have a day where there is no dialog before the area selection menu.
|howto = At the start of a day that has no dialog, in the loading screen with the "Exploration Day X" message, mash the {{button|wiiu|a|wii|a}} and {{button|wiiu|+|wii|+}} buttons in order to try to start the day as quickly as possible.
|notes = You can only change what controllers to use, since the on-screen message appears when you do so, as well as toggle [[Off-TV Play]]. If the last area you were on is the same area you are entering, the glitch may not work. This glitch can happen both on a physical copy and a digital one.
|explanation = The game loads something critical as soon as the day starts, and if the player is fast enough to skip the S.S. Drake and Onion descending cutscene, the game won't have whatever it needs in time, thus failing to skip, and causing a lock. The smallest delay, like a line of dialog, changing what area to land in, or even waiting a bit in the S.S. Drake and Onion cutscene before skipping it is enough for the game to load what it needs and proceed as normal.
}}

===Remote-controlled Pikmin===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Helpful | p3 = Yes
|effects = Control Pikmin without being exactly where they are.
|prerequisites = Obtain the [[Dodge Whistle]].
|howto = [[Throw]] Pikmin up a ledge or over a gap, call them, and repeatedly use the [[Dodge Whistle]] against a wall. The Pikmin should roll, going farther than possible to throw. If you [[dismiss]] your Pikmin after they have rolled close to an object, such as the [[hay]] pile north of the landing site in [[Distant Tundra]], they will interact with it, allowing access to some areas that shouldn't be accessible.
|explanation = When dodging, the Pikmin are programmed to roll with the leader, but if the leader's roll path is blocked, and the Pikmin's is not, then they will still roll.
}}

===Stuck cursor===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmful | p3 = N/A | p3d = [[Pikmin 3 Deluxe#Demo|Demo]] only | demonstration = [https://twitter.com/EspyoPT/status/1317583058850123776 Twitter video] | other = [https://twitter.com/EspyoPT/status/1317585957558710272 Twitter video]
|effects = Makes the visible cursor stuck somewhere in the area. The line from the leader to the cursor will point to where it is, even if it is very far away. The real cursor will be invisible, though it can be seen if there's a prompt above it. It will temporarily return to normal by holding a Pikmin, and fixed permanently by locking on. It persists through leader changes, and entering a different [[segment]] of the area will keep the effect, but move the cursor position elsewhere.
|howto = There are two ways to trigger this glitch:
*# Be in a segment where you have no cursor, like before a throwing tutorial, and have stick and gyro cursor controls on. Then, change the setting to stick-only cursor controls and play the tutorial. From here on, the cursor will visibly be far away, and the line connecting to it will lead there.
*# Pick stick and gyro cursor controls, reset the camera, don't tilt the controller, use {{button|switch|lstick}} to aim in any direction from the leader, and then tilt the controller such that the cursor ends in the opposite direction from the leader. Then pause, and change to stick-only cursor controls.
|notes = This glitch does not work in the full version.
}}

===Stuck Winged Pikmin===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmful | p3 = Yes
|effects = Makes a Winged Pikmin unobtainable after lifting the [[clipboard]] in the [[Garden of Hope]].
|howto = When lifting the clipboard in the Garden of Hope, there is a chance that one or more Winged Pikmin will get stuck behind the clipboard and be unable to return to the spot where the Pikmin group after lifting the board.
|notes = It is possible to re-obtain the Winged Pikmin, however, if one were to whistle the Pikmin and have the day end (either from the pause menu or by natural time) before the Pikmin gives up.
|explanation = When lifting a clipboard, any Pikmin behind it will be tossed back, as to not be crushed. Every once in a while, the Winged Pikmin lifting the clipboard will be thrown back as well. The terrain and placement of the area and the clipboard prevent the Winged Pikmin from returning.
}}

===Tremendous Sniffer without bomb rocks===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Helpful | p3 = Yes | p3d = Yes | image = Tremendous Sniffer glitch.jpg | youtube = hhBhcq6r8lY
|effects = Obtaining the Tremendous Sniffer in the Twilight River without bomb rocks.
|prerequisites = Keep the [[reinforced wall]] up, and have the fruit uncollected.
|howto = At the Twilight River, go to the Tremendous Sniffer. Order a Winged Pikmin to carry the Tremendous Sniffer, or throw a Yellow Pikmin over the gate. It doesn't matter how many Pikmin are ordered, or if they actually move it. The next day, the Tremendous Sniffer will be outside of its alcove.
|notes = Bomb rocks can be used and still have the glitch work, just as long as you don't fully destroy the wall{{cite youtube|0nxKz1HDSvs|of the Tremendous Sniffer being taken out with the wall still up|m=12|s=43}}{{cite youtube|tvRDhM-frWE|of the Tremendous Sniffer being retrieved with the wall still up|m=2|s=0}}. The fruit will clip through the wall for a tiny bit. If you use a Yellow Pikmin and want to rescue it, make sure it's in a leader's group when the day ends. The Pikmin become idle if they can't get close to the leader for a few seconds, so if you want to end the day manually, make sure to whistle them and end the day right after.
|explanation = The game keeps track of where the fruit is. Instead of saving exact coordinates, it might only save the "general" location. If the fruit is not touched, its "general location" is considered inside the alcove. If it gets too close to the gate, the location starts being considered the open space outside the alcove. When it loads the next day, it places the fruit in the vague location it had saved the previous day. Alternately, the game might save the exact location, but due to the carrying, the pear gets slightly embedded against the wall, and when the game loads a new day, it attempts to spawn the fruit in the same place, but to prevent it from clipping, it pushes it off and outside the gate.

===Gameplay===
{| class="wikitable sortable"
! Glitch || ''Pikmin 3'' || ''Deluxe'' || Demonstration
|-
| By [[Throw#Holding|holding on]] to a leader or Pikmin while on the [[Sandbelching Meerslug]]'s arena and walking about, the trajectory prediction curve will occasionally change to a tight curve with an endpoint far below the surface. At this point, throwing will result in the leader or Pikmin performing their trajectory very quickly. This is likely because the game adjusts the throw's velocity according to the distance, which in this case, is assumed to be quite far away (underground). || Yes || Yes || 
|-
| If the [[Quaggled Mireclops]]'s crystal is broken while Pikmin are inside its mouth, those Pikmin will not be killed, but will not be retrievable either. At the end of the day, they will be accounted for the number of deaths by battle. || Yes || Unknown || [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEMPq2unWD4&t=24m54s YouTube video]
|-
| If the Heroine's Tear is collected with Winged Pikmin, it will become impossible to obtain for the rest of the day as it will get stuck on the exits of the cave. || Yes || Unknown || 
|-
| When a leader uses the [[dodge]] move against an object that can be carried with a single Pikmin, the object in question will slightly move. This trick can be used to move pieces of fruit out of the water, for example. || Yes || Yes || [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncDUZxBJYMw YouTube video]
|-
| If a leader is [[throw|holding]] a non-Winged Pikmin while on top of a [[seesaw block]], one extra unit of weight will be applied to the block, for an unknown reason. This does not happen with elevator platforms. || Yes || Yes || 
|-
| It is possible to kill off all Pikmin in Charlie's segment of day 1. Before the first row of [[Spotcap]]s, on the rightmost wall (facing the Spotcaps), there is a nook where the wall before it has some ice on top, and the wall after it does not. The player can position Charlie against this nook, turn around, [[throw|hold]] Pikmin such that they are inside the nook, and [[whistle]] to release the Pikmin inside. There is no floor there, so the Pikmin will fall through and die. Though nothing happens when all of them die, if the player does this before destroying any of the Spotcaps or Kingcaps in the second row, they will be [[softlock|unable to proceed]]. || Yes || Unknown || 
|-
| By throwing a Rock Pikmin at the base of a [[Flukeweed]] that contains a [[nectar egg]], the egg may break and drop its contents on the surface, without the player having to pluck the Flukeweed out. || Yes || Unknown || [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7ZdZ5DRFeg YouTube video]
|-
| It is possible to go out of bounds on the right side of the [[Quaggled Mireclops]]'s arena. Destroy the two brown spotcaps with data files, then throw a leader up to where they used to be. After, switch to that leader and walk towards the [[Hocotate ship]]. || Yes || Unknown || 
|-
| If an [[Armored Cannon Larva]] is killed just as it was about to shoot a boulder, a boulder will appear where it would spawn if the beetle was alive, but it will be destroyed instantly. Regardless, it will still kill nearby Pikmin. || Yes || Yes || [https://twitter.com/EspyoPT/status/1330646751607283712 Twitter video]

|-
| In [[Tropical Wilds Remix]], it is possible to throw a leader onto the cinder blocks in the [[Peckish Aristocrab]]'s arena. || Unknown || Yes || 
|-
| Inside a [[menu]], pressing a diagonal direction on the D-Pad will cause the game to select the option above the current one as if only the upwards was pressed. || Unknown || Yes ||
|-
| Throwing a leader at a [[fire geyser]] will result in them getting thrown farther than normal. If they are whistled in this state, they will keep heading in the same direction, at high speed, until they stop being whistled at. || Unknown || Yes || [https://twitter.com/kumatheartist/status/1344729078763462656?s=21 Twitter video]
