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 lights are what are known as LEDs, or [[Wikipedia:Light-emitting diode|Light-emitting diodes]]. 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 or captains, and have been added to levels merely for aesthetic affect. However, they are noted to indeed be electrically live in Louie's note on the plant, apparently causing a bout of "breakdancing" when consumed. Rarely, they appear in a green version.

Coming into contact with these "plants" can cause [[Bomb Rock]]s to drop from the ceiling in certain caves. This is relatively easy to cause on the 5th [[sublevel]] of the [[Subterranean Complex]]. If attempts are unsuccessful, run around the sublevel running into each Glowstem after it has already been cleared of bomb-rocks and [[Volatile Dweevil]]s. At least one bomb-rock should be triggered by the Glowstems. This can happen with either the red or the green variants of Glowstem, as both appear in the sublevel. This makes Glowstems a somewhat easy way to scout out bomb rocks in caves with them.
==Notes==
===Olimar's Notes===
''"Although they are obviously unrelated, the glowstem bears a striking resemblence to the street lights on Hocotate. It is highly possible that glowstems could be a relic of some unknown civilization beyond the scope of our imagination."''
===Louie's Notes===
''"Inedible. Known effects include uncontrollable episodes of impromptu break dancing."''

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The "Impromptu break-dancing" mentioned in Louie's notes on the Glowstem humorously refers to the convulsions brought on by being electrocuted.
*It's scientific name, '''Nocturnica illuminati''', means 'nocturnal illuminate'. ''Nocturnia ''is close to nocturnal, and ''illuminati'' is close to illuminate.
*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".
