After being showered with cack, infected Pikmin will make a small aggressive sound and will change in appearance and behavior. This Pikmin status only appears in the first ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' game – in ''[[Pikmin 4]]'', Pikmin are instead [[Hazard#Control|controlled]] when showered with Puffstool spores. | ||
The spores of the Puffstool cause affected Pikmin to morph into a strange form. Their eyes become pupil-less and dead-looking, their skin turns a dark shade of purple and an orange-brown mushroom cap grows on top of their stem. Their type's special physical characteristics, such as the noses, ears and gills are also gone; instead, they receive a small, triangular, slit-like frown. | The spores of the Puffstool cause affected Pikmin to morph into a strange form.

Upon standing up, the Pikmin will change into Mushroom Pikmin, but their skin will become a pale version of the color they were before they became Mushroom Pikmin, and their mushroom will glow as if they are idle. These Pikmin will turn upon the Puffstool, attacking it as if they are still under the player's control. | ||
It is possible to get the glitched Mushroom Pikmin under the command of Olimar, but it requires a different technique and is more difficult to accomplish. If Pikmin are left idle by the Puffstool and called at the exact moment the creature inverts its cap (just before it blows its spores), the Pikmin may become glitched Mushroom Pikmin and rush to Olimar's side immediately after.{{cite youtube|qOpGkxfOqWo|demonstrating Mushroom Pikmin glitches}} These Mushroom Pikmin cannot be thrown, whistled, or dismissed, although they will carry pellets and go into the Onion. When they finish carrying the pellet or get called out of the Onion again, they will revert to their normal form. In The Distant Spring's Challenge Mode stage, rebel Mushroom Pikmin that are smacked by a [[Mamuta]] will also revert, and be planted as flower Pikmin sprouts. | It is possible to get the glitched Mushroom Pikmin under the command of Olimar, but it requires a different technique and is more difficult to accomplish.
