In terms of [[hazards]], Glow Pikmin are functionally immune to [[fire]], [[electricity]], [[water]], [[poison]], and [[ice]]. They are also immune to the [[Groovy Long Legs]]'s [[confusion|dancing gas]], ink from a [[Toady Bloyster]] or the [[Bewilder Bomb]] in Dandori Battles, and the [[Muckerskate]] shots' burying ability. They are however still subject to being eaten, [[crush]]ed, [[stab]]bed by needles, [[panic]], and [[wind]]. According to the Rescue Corps and the Piklopedia, Glow Pikmin transmute themselves into photons and reconstitute at the Lumiknoll upon "dying"; however, from a gameplay perspective, a Glow Pikmin is permanently gone upon "death" as with any other Pikmin. Glow Pikmin cannot become buried as sprouts, instead, they will simply be embedded into the ground before unearthing themselves after a short time, similar to Rock Pikmin that get crushed.

Despite their ability to float, they behave differently from [[Winged Pikmin]] in that they will not carry objects over gaps or other paths that only Winged Pikmin can traverse, but instead stay low to the ground and take the same path as typical walking Pikmin would. They also need to be level with any object they swarm and will not fly upward to the target like Winged Pikmin (such as when fighting a [[Baldy Long Legs]]). This may have been done to encourage the use of their Glowmob ability, which gives more height to their attacks. Despite their limited floating abilities, they cannot die from falling or being thrown into an [[abyss]]; they will only fall a short distance before teleporting back the player as if they had gone idle.

They cannot die from falling or being thrown into an abyss, though, unlike Winged Pikmin, they will not stop themselves and instead disappear into the void only to reappear back with the player as if they had gone idle. They also need to be level with any object they swarm and will not fly upward to the target like Winged Pikmin (such as when fighting a [[Baldy Long Legs]]).
