'''Red Pikmin''' ({{j|赤ピクミン|Aka Pikumin}}) are a red species of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] with the special abilities of [[fire]] resistance and strong [[Combat|attack]] power. They are the first Pikmin type seen or discovered in all games by the main playable captain, and are usually considered the "main" type of Pikmin due to their relatively simple traits and early discovery. They are cultivated via the [[Red Onion]] (or the Master Onion), and like [[Yellow Pikmin]], [[Blue Pikmin]] and [[Bulbmin]], their [[Maturity|buds and flowers]] are white. These Pikmin are present in all games of the series, and make an appearance in all game modes. | '''Red Pikmin''' ({{j|赤ピクミン|Aka Pikumin}}) are a red species of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] with the special abilities of [[fire]] resistance and strong [[Combat|attack]] power.

Red Pikmin also exhibit an immunity to [[fire]], in that they ignore the heat whereas other Pikmin (besides [[Bulbmin]] and [[Glow Pikmin]]) would have their leaf, bud, or flower catch on fire and run off in a panic. According to Olimar's notes in the Pikmin 4 Piklopedia, this is because their skin and muscle fibers are made up of a flame-resistant cellulose. This ability is most useful in ''Pikmin 4'', due to the presence of [[fire starter]]s that only they can pick up and [[sizzling floor]]s that only they can extinguish. It is also useful in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 3'' due to the fact that [[fire geyser]]s are indestructible and [[Fiery Blowhog]]s are prevalent. Their ability is less useful in ''Pikmin 2'', where the geysers can be destroyed by any Pikmin, and Fiery Blowhogs can easily be defeated with [[Purple Pikmin]]. Their main use in the second game is for defeating [[Fiery Bulblax]]es, though this task doesn't always require them. In ''Hey! Pikmin'', they act just like in all other games, except they also have the ability to stomp out [[flames]], allowing Olimar or other Pikmin safe passage. | Red Pikmin also exhibit an immunity to [[fire]], in that they ignore the heat whereas other Pikmin (besides [[Bulbmin]] and [[Glow Pikmin]]) would have their leaf, bud, or flower catch on fire and run off in a panic.

For the sake of fairness, their attack strength is reduced in this mode to equal that of Blue Pikmin, and the only elemental hazards are from [[Fiery Blowhog]]s and [[Watery Blowhog]]s. | ||

In {{p2}}, the first Red Pikmin are found by Captain Olimar, immediately after landing on the planet. There are 5 Pikmin fighting a [[Dwarf Bulborb|Dwarf Red Bulborb]] in the [[Valley of Repose]] right next to where Olimar lands. Whistling them gives Olimar control over them, which he uses to defeat the enemy. After this, once [[Louie]] has regained consciousness, he walks a short distance and finds the Red Onion. From there, Louie builds up the population in order to crush a [[bag]] separating him from Olimar, and from then on, the leaders are united. | In {{p2}}, the first Red Pikmin are found by Captain Olimar, immediately after landing on the planet.

In {{p4}}, Red Pikmin are discovered in the tutorial on day 1, but not straight away. After the [[Pikmin 4 player character|player character]] lands, they first find [[Oatchi]], rescue [[Collin]], make their way through the [[Burrow of Beginnings]] and rescue [[Shepherd]], and make it to the landing site of the [[Rescue Command Post]]. There, the Red Onion is found buried in the ground, and after digging it up with Oatchi and pulling it to the landing site, the Onion springs into action and releases a single Red Pikmin seed, which the player can pluck to start growing a squad. | In {{p4}}, Red Pikmin are discovered in the tutorial on day 1, but not straight away.

{{todo|Write a list of items requiring Red Pikmin to collect.}} | |||
There are many items in ''Pikmin 4'' that require the use of Red Pikmin to collect. This is due to the existence of [[sizzling floor]]s, obstacles that can only be destroyed by Red Pikmin, and [[fire starter]]s, tools that can only be carried by Red Pikmin. | |||

*The first piece of [[downloadable content]] in [[nookipedia: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 ({{date|25|March|2009}} as the second DLC item). It is worth 360 Bells. | *The first piece of [[downloadable content]] in [[nookipedia:Animal Crossing: City Folk|''Animal Crossing: City Folk'']] was a hat item called "Red Pikmin".
