'''Leaflings''' ({{j|葉っぱ人|Happa Jin|Leaf Person}}) are characters in {{p4}} that cannot be identified because their heads are entirely covered by leaves. Their ID badges are unreadable due to corrupted biometric data, listing their name as "???" or "Error" and their home planet as [[PNF-404]]. They can be found in [[Dandori Challenge]]s, [[Dandori Battle]]s, and a few [[cave]]s, and can be converted back into regular characters by curing them with [[glow sap]].

'''Leafling''' ({{j|葉っぱ人|Happa Jin|Leaf Man}}) is the name given to characters that cannot be identified because their heads are entirely covered by leaves. Their ID badges are unreadable due to corrupted biometric data, listing their name as "???" or "Error" and their home planet as [[PNF-404]]. [[#Leafling Olimar|Olimar as a leafling]] can be seen kidnapping a [[castaway]], dragging it into an Onion, and making it pop out as a leafling. He justifies this by saying that those that don't embrace [[dandori]] cannot survive in the planet, but they thrive instead if they have the leaves. This is how leaflings are made, and [[Dingo]] speculates that [[Yonny]], the [[Rescue Corps]] doctor, might be able to help bring them back to normal.


The biology of leaflings is unknown. [[#Leafling Olimar|Olimar as a leafling]] can be seen kidnapping a [[castaway]], dragging it into an [[Onion]], and making it pop out as a leafling. He justifies this by saying that those that do not embrace [[dandori]] cannot survive in the planet, but they thrive instead if they have the leaves. This process is how leaflings are made. [[Dandori Challenge]]s and most [[Dandori Battle]]s are run by characters that are themselves leaflings. In this state, leafling characters are unable to speak in normal sentences, instead using simple words and small sentences at a time, and are obsessed with dandori. They will hand over the leafling castaways they have, or fall unconscious so they can be rescued themselves, if they witness a good display of dandori in their challenges or battles. Like normal castaways, they [[weight|weigh]] 3 units when [[carry|carried]], with a maximum carrier count of 6. [[Glow sap]] from a [[Lumiknoll]] can be made into medicine by Yonny that dissolves the leaves, reverting the leaflings to their normal state.
Leafling castaways can be rescued from [[Dandori Challenge]]s and [[Dandori Battle]]s, both of which are issued by characters that are themselves leaflings.

They will hand over the leafling castaways they have, or fall unconscious so they can be rescued themselves, if they witness a good display of dandori in their challenges or battles.

According to dialogue from cured characters,{{cite quote|My memories from my time as a leafling are rather vague... The one thing I do remember is the sense of feeling trapped becoming stronger. It's like I was locked up inside of a dark cave.|Boris after being cured|''Pikmin 4''}} they do not remember the majority of their time as leaflings (excluding the obsession with dandori{{cite quote|While I had leaves on the brain, my head couldn't stop thinking about Dandori...|Bernard after being cured|''Pikmin 4''}}{{cite quote|When I was leafified, I could not stop thinking about the art of Dandori. It was like an endless meditation.|Jin after being cured|''Pikmin 4''}}). However, they can regain some memories with effort.{{cite quote|When I was a leafling, I saw something that still nags at me. Perhaps if I search my memories, I could piece it together...|Captain Olimar after being cured|''Pikmin 4''}} Additionally, they retain the personalities they had before being transformed.


Following his curing, Olimar believes that leaflings may have had Pikmin DNA incorporated into their bodies after being taken into an [[Onion]], triggering their physical and psychological changes and causing them to rapidly sicken if they try to leave [[PNF-404]]. Although he does not know what purpose this "Pikmin-ification' might have, he speculates that the Pikmin may be trying to create a permanent [[leader]] for themselves.

== List of leaflings ==
== Leaflings ==
There are 21 curable leaflings in the game: 12 from [[Dandori Challenge]]s, 4 from [[Dandori Battle]]s, and 5 from [[cave]]s. The Dandori Challenge leaflings stand outside a specific challenge location. When the player approaches, a cutscene will play in which the leafling jumps into the cave. Inside that cave, the leafling will watch the player attempt the challenge, and if it is cleared with at least a bronze medal, the leafling will fall unconscious, and upon exiting the challenge, the unconscious leafling will exit too, and can be carried back to the S.S. Beagle overground, upon which it will be rescued.
{{Spoiler|''Pikmin 4''{{'s}} main story}}


Three of the four Dandori Battle leaflings are initially seen as regular [[castaway]]s outside the Dandori Battles in the first three areas, standing next to a mysterious red leafling which takes them inside in a cutscene when the player approaches. Inside, they are converted to leaflings by the red leafling. Upon beating the red leafling in the battle, the other leafling will come out of the cave with the player, and can be carried back to the S.S. Beagle overground, upon which it will be rescued. The fourth Dandori Battle leafling is the red leafling, and upon beating it in the fourth area's Dandori Battle, that leafing will come out of the cave and can be rescued.
=== Dandori cave leaflings ===
Leaflings can be found inside of both [[Dandori Challenge]] and [[Dandori Battle]] caves. They often speak in broken English, always centered around the concept of dandori.


The cave leaflings are found in specific sublevels of caves, and are rescued in the same way as castaways, by carrying them to the S.S. Beagle on the sublevel.
In Dandori Challenge caves, they act as hosts and comment on the player's dandori skills as they progress. The first of these, seen in the [[Dandori Day Care]] explains that the caves serve as a test designed to develop one's dandori skills. After completing the challenge, the leaflings faint from how quickly the player worked, and can be brought back to the surface and carried to the [[S.S. Beagle]].
 
In Dandori Battle caves, they act as prizes. The [[#Leafling Olimar|red leafling]] carries them from the surface and converts them into leaflings using their Onion. The player can rescue them only if they can defeat the red leafling in a Dandori Battle. If they are defeated, they surrender the leafling, who can be taken back to the surface and carried to the S.S. Beagle. In [[Hot Sandy Duel]] and [[Final Battle]], the player instead saves [[Yorke]] and [[Nelle]], who (thanks to their consumption of glow sap prior) are immune to becoming leaflings.

After a leafling is rescued, it will lie with other rescued leaflings in the [[Rescue Command Post]], near to where [[Yonny]] stands. There are specific spots that leaflings can lie in, and these spots are filled in the order leaflings are rescued. When a leafling is cured, all the leaflings in later spots will move to the previous spot.
=== Castaway leaflings ===
Later in the game, [[castaway]]s found in caves will instead be leaflings. They function identically to a standard castaway, though they now must be cured with glow sap like the prior type of leaflings. The order of which players cure leaflings will remain unchanged by this different method of obtaining them. The location for these leaflings are as follows:


The following table lists the leaflings and their locations, in the order the locations are listed in the [[area selection menu]].

A red leafling that has [[Captain Olimar]]'s suit, nose, and voice. Unlike the prior leaflings, he uses correct grammar, though still obsesses over the idea of dandori. He is usually seen accompanied (and later guarded) by [[Moss]]. Both are seen stealing castaways and turning them into leaflings via their Onion, as they believe that those who are not leaflings cannot survive this planet. The mysterious duo challenges the player to rounds of [[Dandori Battle]]s, returning the castaways they steal only when the player wins. They are first battled in [[Trial Run]], [[Battle in a Box]], and [[Dandori Castle]].

In [[Hero's Hideaway]], he is revealed to be Olimar himself through various late entries in [[Pikmin 4 voyage log|his voyage log]]. After opening the [[safe]] he is inside, he challenges the player to one more battle, [[Leafy Showdown]]. Once he is defeated, he has no castaway to give and instead falls unconscious to be rescued as Moss runs away. Once he is rescued and cured, he reverts back to his usual non-leafling self.

The Sage Leaf is a white leafling found in a hidden cave in the [[Rescue Command Post]], which is only revealed after completing [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]]. They oversee the [[Trial of the Sage Leaf]], a series of ten complex [[Dandori Challenge]]s with varied objectives. Like the red leafling (Olimar), they speak normally.

Though they refuse to be rescued or cured, they will reward the player with the White [[Onion]] and Purple Onion upon completing their fifth and tenth trials respectively. Recompleting the fifth and tenth trials will reward the player 10 White Pikmin and Purple Pikmin respectively. It remains unknown who this Sage Leaf was before they became a leafling (the Sage Leaf has long since forgotten their former identity and says that they have no desire to reclaim it), but given their old age, it would seem they have been one for a long time.

===Space dogs===
The space dog [[Moss]] is affected by a similar condition to humanoid leaflings: she has a leaf on the tip of her tail, cannot leave PNF-404 without falling seriously ill and shares some of her DNA with the Pikmin. Her backstory is unknown, but Olimar believes she has been this way since birth.{{cite quote|As far as I can tell, Moss has been a leafling pup since birth, and some of her DNA resembles that of the Pikmin.|Captain Olimar|his Piklopedia notes for Moss}}
 
After Bernard has been cured, the Rescue Pup [[Oatchi]] grows a leaf on his tail similar to that of Moss. This becomes a problem when the Rescue Corps has rescued Olimar but cannot leave PNF-404 without Oatchi suffering the same symptoms that other leaflings would. After acquiring the [[Gift of Friendship]], Yonny extracts some of the [[Ancient Sirehound]]'s cells from the collar and makes a special cure that reverts Oatchi to normal.

== Cure order ==
== Rescue order ==
Like [[castaway]]s, leaflings are cured in a particular order no matter where they are found. While leaflings are cured in the order that they are rescued, the character that they are cured into depends on how many leaflings have been cured. However, this system is complicated by [[Dandori Battle]]s. As completing Dandori Battles is necessary to progress the story, leaflings from these locations have priority to be cured over leaflings from [[Dandori Challenge]]s or [[cave]]s. Upon completing a [[night expedition]] and getting glow sap, if Dandori Battle leaflings are waiting to be cured, they will be cured first in their cure order, followed by other leaflings in their cure order. If a Dandori Battle is completed but the leafling from that location is not rescued, then a leafling from elsewhere will instead be cured into the next character in the Dandori Battle cure order.
{{stub|fill in the rest of the table}}
Like [[Castaway#Rescue order|castaway]]s, leaflings are rescued and cured in a particular order no matter where they are found. It should be noted that leaflings are cured in the same order they are rescued. While the order won't change, one thing that does change based on the order rescued is hair color, as each cured castaway's hair will match the color of their former leafs.


The hair color of a cured character depends on the leafling they were cured from, so each of these characters can have one of five hair colors. (In the table below, the hair colors are based on the assumption that the player completed the caves, challenges, and battles in the order they're listed on the [[area selection menu]].) Like castaways, each character has a defined suit color, but that suit color will instead be red if the player selects that character's defined color to be the Rescue Corps suit color.

=== Dandori Battle leaflings ===
{{stub|fill in the rest of the table}}
The only exception to the order of leaflings are those rescued from [[Dandori Battle]] caves, who have their own order. When being cured, they take precedence over normal leaflings found as castaways or for completing [[Dandori Challenge]] caves. All four must be rescued to progress the game's story. As stated above, their role is filled by [[Yorke]] and [[Nelle]] in later Dandori Battle caves, who do not need to be cured.

== Trivia ==
== Trivia ==
* The concept of Olimar being turned into a Pikmin-like creature was introduced in the "bad" ending of the first ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' game, in which the Pikmin carry an unconscious Olimar to the Red Onion, which absorbs him and releases an Olimar head-shaped Pikmin seed. The scene of Olimar becoming a leafling in [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]] mirrors this sequence.
* Many of the leaflings share colors with Pikmin types: red, green, white, blue, purple, and pink. The only color that isn't a Pikmin type is orange, although it's arguable that it's yellow, or amber (the color between orange and yellow).
