Editing Hazard

[[File:Fire.jpg|thumb|left|100px|A [[fire geyser]].]]

Fire usually occurs as torrents of flame spat by [[fire geyser]]s and some enemies, although there are also enemies that have fiery bodies. Only [[Red Pikmin]], [[Bulbmin]], and [[Glow Pikmin]] are immune to fire. Other Pikmin burn up, and [[leader]]s that aren't adequately protected will also take damage.

The water hazard effect is sourced from pools of water, and water released by enemies. Pikmin that enter water bodies start to drown, but have a chance to survive if they are repeatedly whistled toward a shore. Pikmin hit by jets or globs of water panic and suffocate until whistled. Only [[Blue Pikmin]] and Bulbmin can safely travel in water or resist water-based hazards. [[Ice Pikmin]] have the ability to travel across the surface of a body of water, and even freeze it, but they will still panic when sprayed with water from enemies, such as the [[Watery Blowhog]].

Electricity is a dangerous hazard in ''Pikmin 2'', but a non-fatal obstacle in ''Pikmin 3''. Pikmin that get zapped in ''Pikmin 2'' die instantaneously, while Pikmin in ''Pikmin 3'' get stunned into a paralysis, until [[whistle]]d back up. ''Pikmin 4''{{'s}} electricity stuns Pikmin, but if not whistled back in time, they will die unlike in ''Pikmin 3''. Some enemies and obstacles emit electrical currents, and [[Gate#Electric gate|electric gates]] are constantly electrified. Only [[Yellow Pikmin]], Bulbmin, and Glow Pikmin are immune to electric shocks. Leaders that aren't protected with [[Anti-Electrifier|shock-resistant equipment]] will be damaged and get knocked down to the ground.

[[File:Poison.jpg|thumb|A [[gas pipe]].]]

Poison is hazardous gas that Pikmin cannot breathe. [[Gas pipe]]s and some enemies emit clouds of poison. Only [[White Pikmin]], Bulbmin, and Glow Pikmin can withstand poison. Since leaders are inside their [[spacesuits]], poison does not affect them.

Ice, or icy mist, is a non-fatal hazard in ''Pikmin 4''. Any Pikmin except [[Ice Pikmin]] and [[Glow Pikmin]] will be frozen solid when coming into contact with this mist. As they are left completely immobilized, they are easy prey for creatures until [[whistle]]d. Oatchi can thaw himself out eventually, but the player character must mash the whistle button in order to escape.

Some obstacles and enemies can crush Pikmin and leaders. This is fatal for all Pikmin except [[Rock Pikmin]] and [[Winged Pikmin]] (though Winged Pikmin can still be crushed by the [[Quaggled Mireclops]] and the [[Plasm Wraith]]'s crystal cubes). In ''Pikmin 4'', Rock Pikmin will be smashed – and die – if crushed on top of a hard surface.

Although less common than the previously mentioned hazards, there are still many more that appear throughout the games.

[[File:Bomb-rock.jpg|thumb|left|250px|A bomb rock close to detonation.]]

{{main|Bomb rock}}

[[Bomb rock]]s explode, and any Pikmin caught in the blast will die. Leaders will also be severely hurt. In ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 3'', Pikmin can [[carry]] and [[throw]] bomb rocks at enemies, making explosions both a tool and a danger. In ''Pikmin 2'', bomb rocks are mostly a threat to the player's group, and the attacks of a [[Gatling Groink]] or [[Man-at-Legs]] also count as explosive hazards.

Pits are bottomless chasms outside the boundaries of every sublevel of every [[cave]], as well as the bottomless pit in [[The Forest Navel]]. If Pikmin are thrown over the edge of the level or leave its walls or floor by a [[Glitches|glitch]], they fall to their deaths. [[Enemy|Enemies]] can be killed by this as well, a strategy that can be used to one's advantage.

Wind is a rare hazard only used by the [[Puffy Blowhog]] and [[Withering Blowhog]], when they blow away leaders and their Pikmin. It will temporarily stun both, though [[Purple Pikmin]] are immune to it in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 4''.

Spores are a rare hazard used by just one enemy, the [[Puffstool]]. Any Pikmin that are exposed to them will become [[Mushroom Pikmin]], and will attack leaders until shaken off.

At the end of the day, all Pikmin not in the landing area, in a [[leader]]'s group, or planted in the ground will be eaten by aggressive nocturnal beasts. During the liftoff cutscene at sunset, Pikmin seen running from enemies indicate the type (and after ''Pikmin'', the number) of Pikmin left behind. Enemies can also be killed during this cutscene by [[White Pikmin]] or other enemies.

Panic is a hazard that causes Pikmin to run around in a frenzy, but will eventually fade away and not cause any damage to the Pikmin. It can also be solved immediately by calling a panicked Pikmin with the whistle. Panic has taken many different forms throughout the series, and is sourced from many enemies. In {{p2}}, Purple Pikmin are immune to standard panic. In {{p4}}, [[Oatchi]] is not (and cannot) become immune to panic like with most other hazards.

 

 

[[Waddlepus]]es and [[Peckish Aristocrab]]s can release a stream of bubbles which trap [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] and [[leader]]s. Bubbles that catch anything pop after some time, and all bubbles pop if a thrown Pikmin hit them. Bubbles that catch leaders will also pop if the player controls the leader by quickly shaking the analog stick for some time. [[Winged Pikmin]] can be told to [[charge]] at a bubble, but if too many of them charge it at once, the bubble will rise up to the sky at a quick speed.

Webs are hazards that cause a Pikmin to become stuck. A Pikmin can eventually be freed from a web by whistling to it. So far, [[Arachnode]]s are the only enemy seen to create webs. If a Pikmin is caught on a web, the Arachnode will attempt to eat it. If the Arachnode is killed, the web will disappear. Winged Pikmin are especially prone to being caught, as they cannot walk under the web like other Pikmin.

 

 

 

 

Before Olimar is defeated in [[Leafy Showdown]], [[Moss]] will roam the floors of [[Hero's Hideaway]] and attempt to collect any Pikmin she finds. If she manages to whistle the player's Pikmin, they will jump on her back as she carries them off. Similar to [[Hazard#Confusion|confusion]], the Pikmin will have purple clouds around their stems and cannot be whistled. To free the Pikmin, the player must damage Moss enough until she starts to run away, which will make her drop the Pikmin.

===Gloom===

Gloom is an otherworldly type of element that instantly kills Pikmin on contact, regardless of their invulnerabilities, and can also damage leaders. It goes unnamed in ''Pikmin'', and comes only in the form of the gray and green gas left behind by the [[Smoky Progg]]. In ''Pikmin 4'', it gets named in a [[loading screen]] tip and is colored red. Here, it is used by the Smoky Progg and the [[Ancient Sirehound]]. In appearance and name, it resembles the [[zelda:Gloom|gloom]] in another Nintendo game launched shortly before ''Pikmin 4'', [[zelda:The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom|''The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom'']].
