'''Hiding''' is a mechanic in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' | '''Hiding''' is a mechanic in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. [[Leader]]s and their [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] can hide from [[Enemy|enemies]] by crouching under specific [[plant]]s. When a leader walks under a suitable plant, all Pikmin and fellow crew members in their [[squad]] will gather close and crouch – [[Winged Pikmin]] will also lower their altitude to fit under the plant's covers. In this state, they are invisible to all enemies. If an enemy was chasing the player, and their army hides, the enemy will look around in confusion and head back, allowing the Pikmin a chance to counterattack. This will also work even if the enemy saw the Pikmin go in, can clearly see the Pikmin if they're hiding poorly, is attacked from within the hiding spot, or even if it is under the plant right next to them. | ||

[[Swarming Sheargrub]]s can also hide under plants, as Pikmin do. Although not quite a form of hiding, leaders and Pikmin may stand under a [[Common Glowcap]]'s shower of light to evade [[Phosbat]] and [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] attacks. | [[Swarming Sheargrub]]s can also hide under plants, as Pikmin do.
