'''Red Pikmin''' are the first variety of Pikmin identified in the [[Pikmin series|Pikmin games]]. Aside from their color, the distinguishing feature of Red Pikmin is their pointed noses. These Pikmin possess an immunity to [[hazards#Fire|fire]], making them useful for fighting [[Fiery Bulblax]]es and [[Fiery Blowhog]]s and passing by - or, in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', destroying - fire geysers. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Red Pikmin can also use fire to attack their opponents. They spend nights in the [[Red Onion]]. Of the three Pikmin types in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', they have the greatest attack strength maybe due to that they have fiery properties and thorn-pointed noses to spike enemies with to deal more damage, only bested by [[Purple Pikmin]] by their strong attack power in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', though their high strength is removed in [[2-Player mode]] to make them equal to Player 2's [[Blue Pikmin]].

In both games, they are found on Day 1, which, in both cases, has no time limit. In ''Pikmin'', the [[Red Onion]] is located where [[Olimar]] lands, and ejects the first seed; in the second game, 5 Red Pikmin are found, fighting a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]] immediately by Olimar in the [[Valley of Repose]], while the Red Onion is closer to [[Louie|Louie's]] landing spot. In order to increase the number of them, a [[Captain]] can order corpses or [[Pellet]]s to be carried to the Red Onion, or other colors of Pikmin can be thrown into a [[Crimson Candypop Bud]].

Red Pikmin appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as a trophy and a type of Pikmin Olimar can pull from the ground via Pikmin Pluck. Red Pikmin, like in the games, deal a high amount of damage (in ''Brawl'', Purple Pikmin only have higher knockback, but do less damage to foes than Red Pikmin). Also, Red Pikmin have fiery properties to deal more damage and are immune to fire attacks such as Bowser's or Charizard's Fire Breath or Mario's Fireballs.

==''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' Trophy==

"A type of Pikmin--which are odd beings who grow like plants yet are as mobile as animals. Red ones are heat and fire resistant and are strong attackers, which makes them valuable when facing dangerous foes. Purple Pikmin are also tough fighters, but since it's difficult to increase their numbers, red Pikmin are easier to manage. Red Pikmin have distinct pointed noses. "

==Trivia==

<!--Editor Note: Please do not add anything about Steve the Red Pikmin, as Steve is fandom and therefore should not have any information about him on this wiki.-->

*The first piece of downloadable content in [[w:c:animalcrossing:Animal Crossing: City Folk|Animal Crossing: City Folk]] was a hat item called "Red Pikmin". The item covers all of the character's head except the face and stems out into a leaf. It could be sent to other regions through befriending Japanese players. The same item was later made available in Europe and then North America (3/25/09 as the second DLC item). It is worth 360 Bells.
*A rectangular pot with a Red, Blue, and Yellow Pikmin planted in it is a type of furniture in ''Animal Crossing: City Folk''. However, it can only be obtained by hacking.
*For the one of the Nintendo 3DS's StreetPass minigames (''Find Mii''), there was an obtainable hat called the Red Pikmin hat; it was red, covered the Mii's head, and had a red stem with a leaf on the end.

*Some fans have found in the games code (the original Pikmin) that the Red Pikmin along with the Blue Pikmin could originally use Bomb Rocks. This was taken out later so the ability was exclusive to Yellow Pikmin.
*The Red Pikmin's nose could arguably be the reason why Red Pikmin deal more damage then normal Pikmin in the first Pikmin; the pointed end may be used to stab enemies while it attacks with its head.
==Steve==
Red Pikmin have become an internet meme. This was started by Chuggaaconroy's LP of Pikmin, in which he named a red leaf Pikmin that tripped, Steve. Ever since then, people have called him a trooper, and have even created a Facebook page for him, which quickly got a few thousand followers in only a day.
