The '''Glowstem''' ({{j|ヒカリエノキ|Hikari Enoki|Light Enoki}}) is a [[plant]] in {{p2}}. While classified as a relative to the [[Common Glowcap]] in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]], Glowstems are actually artificial red and green {{w|light-emitting diode}}s. They are found exclusively in metal [[cave]]s, where they are spread randomly along the ground and on metal ledges. Despite appearing to have exposed live wires, Glowstems provide no threat to [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or leaders, only visually flickering slightly upon contact.
'''Glowstems''' are used for scenery in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. They appear to Hocotatian explorers to be relatives of the [[Common Glowcap]], but in actuality, these tiny, orange lights are what are known as LEDs, or {{w|light-emitting diode}}s. They are never seen above ground and can only be found in certain cave sublevels with a metallic layout. Despite the lack of insulation covering the live wires, Glowstems pose no electrical threat, nor any other kind, to [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[leader]]s, and have been added to levels merely for aesthetic affect. Green variants exist as well.

In some caves, coming into contact with the "[[plant]]" will cause [[bomb-rock]]s to fall from the ceiling. When the player intends to begin the sublevel's exploration by scouring it alone, activating bomb-rocks, these plants provide a good indication of potential bomb-rock spots.

==Trivia==
*The "Impromptu break-dancing" mentioned in Louie's notes on the Glowstem humorously refers to the convulsions brought on by being electrocuted.
*In the Japanese [[Region|version]], the Glowstem's family is listed as unknown, instead of belonging to the [[glowcap family]].
*The first half of Olimar's notes on the Glowstem were very different in an early version of the translation found in a playable demo, more closely resembling the Japanese version.{{cite web|https://tcrf.net/Proto:Pikmin_2/Piklopedia_Entries#060_-_Glowstem|Proto:Pikmin 2/Piklopedia_Entries|The Cutting Room Floor}} Rather than comparing the Glowstem to street lights, Olimar compares it to "the technology behind the LED (Lightning Eedesu) dual terminals", but notes that it "does not exhibit the doppler pushing characteristic of dual terminals".
