'''Onions''' ({{j|オニヨン|Oniyon| | '''Onions''' ({{j|オニヨン|Oniyon|Onion}}) are the large, round life forms that act as nests for the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. There are eight main types of Onion nests, each with unique coloration corresponding to either [[Red Pikmin|Red]], [[Yellow Pikmin|Yellow]], [[Blue Pikmin|Blue]], [[Purple Pikmin|Purple]], [[White Pikmin|White]], [[Rock Pikmin|Rock]], [[Winged Pikmin|Winged]], and [[Ice Pikmin|Ice]]. As of {{p4}}, [[Bulbmin]] and [[Glow Pikmin]] have no known Onions. | ||
In {{p3}}, all discovered Onions merge together the night after they are discovered, and become a single, universal Onion, greatly simplifying the management of Pikmin types at the beginning of each day. It also appears that the Onions in this game are much more malleable than their ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'' counterparts in regards to which Pikmin species they will hold. In ''Pikmin 3'', if a new Onion color is discovered, and Pikmin from that new type are left on the landing site at the end of the [[day]], the Master Onion there will accommodate them until the Onions fuse at the end of the day. | In {{p3}}, all discovered Onions merge together the night after they are discovered, and become a single, universal Onion, greatly simplifying the management of Pikmin types at the beginning of each day.

However, when one breaks down the biological matter it has absorbed a fuel similar to bioethanol is created. Onions spray this fuel out of the mouths on their underbellies and are able to fly using their flowerlike propellers for stabilization.|block=y}} | ||
