Editing Ice

'''Ice''' is a hazard in {{p4}}. It is non-fatal, and cannot outright harm [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], but it can freeze them solid, leaving them vulnerable to other [[hazards]] or being eaten. [[Ice Pikmin]] and [[Glow Pikmin]] are completely immune to ice, however. Ice also affects the [[Pikmin 4 player character|player character]] and [[Oatchi]] if they do not have the [[Thermal Device]] equipped. Note that even if frozen, the [[Maturity]] of a [[Pikmin]] will not decrease unlike other hazards.

== Thermal Defense ==

{{main|Thermal Defense}}

The Thermal Defense is a piece of gear that both the [[Pikmin 4 player character|player character]] and [[Oatchi]] can equip. It makes the wearer completely immune to ice hazards.

{{game help|p4|Check if Oatchi can be frozen by the Dandori Battle opponent's Ice Pikmin, and if he can ignore it with the Thermal Device.}}

While not directly the ice hazard players face in-game, Ice Pikmin have the ability to freeze enemies, encasing them in ice similarly to how other Pikmin types can be frozen.
