'''Purple Pikmin''' ({{j|紫ピクミン|Murasaki Pikumin}}) are a type of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] found in {{p2}}, {{p4}}, {{pb}}, and non-story game modes in {{p3}}.

They are the second type of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] found in ''Pikmin 2'', the first of which are found in the [[Emergence Cave]]. Their most noteworthy characteristics are their massive weight and [[carrying]] strength – 10 times those of a regular Pikmin. They are also slower than normal, and have a unique way of attacking enemies in ''Pikmin 2'' through a pound. They are specifically required to obtain a number of [[treasure]]s, two of which are needed to gain access to new [[area]]s, making them necessary to complete the game. Their defining physical characteristics are their purple color, as the name would imply, as well as their bulbous physique when compared to other Pikmin, in addition to the straight {{w|trichomes}} atop their heads. | ||
Purple Pikmin share a number of similarities with [[White Pikmin]]. At first, they can only be harvested through their [[Violet Candypop Bud]]s, and these are only found in various caves. Purple Pikmin do not have an [[Onion]] of their own, as they can only be harvested only through Violet Candypop buds, in certain underground areas. Their buds and flowers are magenta rather than white. In addition, at the [[Day#Sunset|end of each day]] in Pikmin 2, they are stored in the [[Hocotate ship]], since they do not have an [[Onion]] of their own. In Pikmin 4, they are stored in the Onion with the rest of the Pikmin. In addition, for the first time in the series, they can be mass-produced with an Onion, unlocked by completing the final floor of the [[Trial of the Sage Leaf]]. | Purple Pikmin share a number of similarities with [[White Pikmin]].

Purple Pikmin weigh ten times as much as a regular Pikmin, making them useful for puzzles like [[seesaw | Purple Pikmin weigh ten times as much as a regular Pikmin, making them useful for puzzles like [[seesaw blocks]]. As a result of their weight, they are [[throw]]n at a lower arc, and are not knocked back by the windy attacks of the [[Puffy Blowhog|Puffy]] or [[Withering Blowhog]]. Their weight also helps them keep themselves upright, and prevents them from tripping quite as often as other Pikmin types,<ref>[[User:Mariotime315/Pikmyths#Purple Pikmin trip less often|Fan-driven research]]</ref> and in Pikmin 4, keep them from being caught by bubbles. Some airborne enemies can be weighed down with a certain number of Pikmin, and Purples count as 10 for this purpose as well. This means that enemies that fall with a weight of 10 Pikmin on them can be brought down with a single Purple Pikmin. | ||
Their weight, however, | Their weight, however, slows them down a lot, even as [[Maturity|flowers]]. Purples cannot move as quickly as other Pikmin types, and move even slower when carrying items. This can result in a player accidentally leaving a Purple Pikmin behind, especially in the leaf stage, while crossing an [[area]]. Despite their weight, [[Blue Pikmin]] can grab them and chuck them out of water just fine. | ||
These Pikmin have the strength of 10 Pikmin, making them not only helpful to retrieve objects without using up a large number of Pikmin, but also mandatory for the collection of some treasures that require over 100 Pikmin in strength to pick up. | These Pikmin have the strength of 10 Pikmin, making them not only helpful to retrieve objects without using up a large number of Pikmin, but also mandatory for the collection of some treasures that require over 100 Pikmin in strength to pick up. | ||
In ''Pikmin 2'', when thrown, they will land with a resounding thump, stunning and seriously injuring larger [[Enemy|beasts]] nearby, and fatally injuring smaller, more fragile creatures such as [[Shearwig]]s and [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s. In addition, they do not need to be precisely thrown at their target, as a small homing system will swerve the Pikmin's fall and make it land on a nearby enemy. Most enemies have a one in three chance of being stunned, and stay stunned for a full five seconds. Some [[boss]]es are harder to stun, or may not be stunned at all, whereas other enemies might be stunned more or less easily, and for different durations of time. This strong landing destroys [[ | In ''Pikmin 2'', when thrown, they will land with a resounding thump, stunning and seriously injuring larger [[Enemy|beasts]] nearby, and fatally injuring smaller, more fragile creatures such as [[Shearwig]]s and [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s.

Most enemies have a one in three chance of being stunned, and stay stunned for a full five seconds. Some [[boss]]es are harder to stun, or may not be stunned at all, whereas other enemies might be stunned more or less easily, and for different durations of time. This strong landing destroys [[eggs]] immediately, defeats Mitites in a wide radius, and can instantly deactivate [[fire geyser]]s and [[electrical wire]]s. This, combined with the naturally strong impact damage, makes Purple Pikmin the strongest Pikmin to use in a fight. Because the "thud" counts as an attack, it can be used to damage [[gas pipe]]s and [[Fiery Bulblax]]es, given that although the Pikmin cannot latch on or attack with its stem due to the [[hazard]]s, they can still cause damage, despite being put in risk of death right after. | ||
These Pikmin possess the strange ability to anchor extra-dimensional entities such as the [[Waterwraith]] to the current dimension for a brief period | These Pikmin possess the strange ability to anchor extra-dimensional entities such as the [[Waterwraith]] to the current dimension for a brief period, although this has never been explained in detail. They also do not panic when encountering [[Mitite]]s or hearing the roar of [[Emperor Bulblax]]es. Interestingly, they stay latched on to [[Dwarf Bulborb|Dwarf Red Bulborb]]s, [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s, and other similar enemies, if they are thrown on top, and only let go when the enemy's death animation is over. | ||
In ''Pikmin 3'', however, many of their iconic traits are no longer prevalent. They no longer deal more damage than Red Pikmin, nor do they stun enemies on impact. Despite this, they still stop to perform a pound move even though it does no extra damage. In addition, they have a slight delay when thrown to latch onto enemies after their "ground pound", as if they are waiting for a non-existent stun. They also lost their wind resistance as proven by the [[Puffy Blowhog]] in [[Twilight Hollow]], and can no longer instantly weigh down airborne enemies as confirmed with the same creature. Also, because no enemies are able to scatter Pikmin like the Mitites, it is unknown if they are still immune to panic fits. As a result, the main use for Purple Pikmin in ''Pikmin 3'' is purely for carrying purposes | In ''Pikmin 3'', however, many of their iconic traits are no longer prevalent.

In ''Pikmin 4'', Purple Pikmin | In ''Pikmin 4'', Purple Pikmin behave similarly to ''Pikmin 3'', but now retain their wind resistance from ''Pikmin 2'', which now extends to bubbles. It is also implied that they now deal more damage than Red Pikmin and are immune to panic still. Due to this, it is most likely that Purple Pikmin retain their iconic traits from ''Pikmin 2''. | ||

When Olimar and Louie venture into the [[Emergence Cave]], they see the [[Spherical Atlas|top half of a globe]], but it requires more than [[Pikmin limit|100 Pikmin]] to lift – it needs 101. They venture further through the cave, and find a pair of [[Violet Candypop Bud]]s. After throwing some Red Pikmin in them, they discover the Purple Pikmin, which they then learn are fierce fighters and can carry 10 times their weight, allowing them to retrieve the otherwise "unliftable" treasure. | Purples are only truly "discovered" in ''Pikmin 2''.

Although Purple Pikmin do not appear in ''Pikmin 3'''s main story, they do occasionally appear in [[Mission Mode]] and [[Bingo Battle]]. The most notable stage with Purple Pikmin is [[Thirsty Desert Remix]], which features nothing but Purples and some [[Candypop Bud]]s. | |||

The best place to get so many would be the [[Subterranean Complex]]. Take a single Pikmin into that cave and skip through the sublevels until you reach the eighth one, with an [[Geyser|exit geyser]], Candypop Buds and some [[eggs]]. Use the [[Queen Candypop Bud]]s first and the Violet Candypop Buds after to produce 15 Purple Pikmin and 2 [[Red Pikmin|Red]], [[Blue Pikmin|Blue]] or [[Yellow Pikmin]]. Or, if you are also trying to increase your [[White Pikmin]] count, bring 21 Pikmin and throw 20 of them into the [[Ivory Candypop Bud]]s on floors 3 and 4 to gain 20. When you reach the 7th floor, throw the last non-White Pikmin into the Queen Candypop Buds first and the Violet Candypop Buds after to produce 15 Purple Pikmin and 2 of the primary type of Pikmin. | ||

Purple Pikmin can first be found in the [[Engulfed Castle]], with their Candypop Bud appearing right before the Waterwraith's arena. In addition, they also have an Onion of their own for the first time in the series. This Onion can be unlocked by carrying it back to the [[S.S Beagle]] within the time limit, upon which it will be fused with the main Onion upon returning to the surface. | |||

Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]'', as well as having trophies based on them. Here, they have the shortest throw distance and the smallest grab range. When thrown at an enemy, rather than latching on, Purples will deliver a blow with knockback, stopping the opponent in their tracks. They are the most durable Pikmin of all and deliver the highest amount of knockback in Olimar's smashes and aerial attacks. Purple Pikmin are also the only Pikmin that will be plucked by Olimar in Home-Run Contest. They also appear as a [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#Stickers|sticker]] in ''Brawl''. | ||
