There are many '''[[tool]]s''' in the {{ps}}. This page lists the ones that are rarer and less notable. Because they are rarely acknowledged by the games, their names are usually conjectural.

=== Floating bottle ===
[[File:Septic Swamp 5.jpg|thumb|Some floating bottles, with one dripping with poison water.]]

'''Floating bottles''' are the main obstacles of [[Septic Swamp]]. They are found in the [[poison]] lakes of the [[area]], where they bob up and down and act as platforms the player can move across on. At certain intervals, some will sink into the poison lake, and then come back up again. How far down each goes depends on the bottle, and some even get completely submerged. The player can tell the lowest point it can get by looking at what part of it has poison water dripping off.
==== Locations ====
*'''[[Lushlife Murk]]'''
**[[Septic Swamp]]: This is the only area they can be found in, where they act as the "gimmick" of the level. The abundance of moving floating bottles consists of nearly all the terrain, creating more difficulty. The player can easily get separated from their Pikmin if a bottle starts sinking, and their Pikmin can easily get lost and even die.

=== Leaf platform ===
[[File:Gale-Force Glen 1.jpg|thumb|Two leaf platforms being blown forward.]]

'''Leaf platforms''' (conjectural name) are the main obstacles of [[Leafswirl Lagoon]]. At first they hang down, but when wind blows they become parallel to the ground, and act like a platform that Olimar can walk on.
==== Locations ====
*'''[[Leafswirl Lagoon]]'''
**[[Gale-Force Glen]]: These obstacles are found in this area only, and are mandatory if the player wants to make progress in the area.

=== Metal pipe ===
[[File:Below the Ice 3.jpg|thumb|Blue Pikmin digging out a metal pipe.]]

The '''metal pipe''' is a rusty pipe with a curve at the end found in an area in the game. It serves as a staircase that allows the player to reach higher places. It originally is trapped deep in the ground, and [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are required to [[dig]] it out, in a way similar to [[climbing stick]]s. Once it is completely dug, the player and their Pikmin can then walk up it. If the player or a Pikmin is under it after the Pikmin complete it, then they can walk past it. After they walk past, doing so in the other direction will automatically make them walk up the pipe.
==== Locations ====
*'''[[Snowfall Field]]'''
**[[Below the Ice]]: The only one in the game appears here, and is found in the bottom of a pool of [[water]] near the beginning. At first it can't be dug out, so the player must drain the water by breaking a [[clog]]. The player's Pikmin can then dig the pipe out, and It will lead to the ground above.

=== Rusted rod ===
[[image:Sizzling Precipice 5.jpg|thumb|The only rusted rod, buried in the floor.]]

The '''rusted rod''' is an obstacle found only once in an area of the game. This obstacle can be dug up by Pikmin (like the metal pipe), and it can be climbed up by Olimar and his Pikmin, just like vines.
==== Locations ====
*'''[[Sweltering Parchlands]]'''
**[[Sizzling Precipice]]: This is the only area where this obstacle can be found. It must be dug by the Pikmin in order to progress in the area.

=== Water sac ===
[[File:Barriers of Flame 6.jpg|thumb|A water sac above some fire.]]

The '''water sac''' (conjectural name) is a rare obstacle found a few times in [[Barriers of Flame]]. It is a see-through green sack full of water. When destroyed with Pikmin, the water will drop out and extinguish any fire beneath it.
==== Locations ====
*'''[[Sweltering Parchlands]]'''
**[[Barriers of Flame]]: This is their only location where they serve as one of the ways to take out the fires, considering [[Red Pikmin]] are absent.
