The '''Horsetail''' ({{j|ツクシ|Tsukushi|Horsetail}}) is a [[plant]] found in {{p2}} and {{p4}}. It has a brownish color and stiffly sticks out of the ground like a post. This hardy plant can survive in soil conditions with few nutrients, but is still very rarely seen, only appearing in two overworld locations, one cave, and four challenge mode levels. Horsetails, unlike most plants, have retained the primitive method of reproducing via {{w|spore}}s.
'''''Equestrius vindico''''', this is not the scientific name given by humans.


{{Notes|olimar=y|louie=y}}
The '''Horsetail''' is a brown plant that sticks out of the ground stiff like a post. It is a hardy plant that can survive when its supply of nourishment is very low in variety and quality, thus making it seen more often in rather shady places, such as caves. This plant reproduces by the release of spores. This plant, like most others, provides no help or threat to you and the [[Pikmin]].


===''Pikmin 2'' Nintendo Player's Guide===
It has an appearance in the game ''Super Paper Mario'', in which it restored 7 HP if eaten. Although it is  rather unlikely that this is a direct reference to Pikmin, the [[Pikmin series|series]] may well have inspired the appearence in ''Paper Mario''.
{{transcript|Much like foxtails, horsetails are tall and majestic. They thrive in soil that doesn't have enough nutrients for other types of plants.|block=y}}
