When this happens, the Pikmin is usually unusable until it recovers. A Pikmin that trips or stumbles runs the risk of being forgotten, captured by [[enemies]], or flung into an [[obstacle]]{{cite web|https://clips.twitch.tv/AverageCheerfulRamenKappaPride|Twitch video (language warning)|Twitch|published={{date|10|June|2019}}|retrieved={{date|11|June|2019}}}}, making it important for the player to pay attention to the whole group and use whatever tools they have to get the Pikmin back to normal quickly. | ||
Tripping was introduced in [[Pikmin (game)|the first game]], where it is fairly common. It carried over to {{p2}}, where the chances for a Pikmin to trip got reduced, but stumbling was added. Both mechanics were removed entirely in {{p3}}. Tripping was later re-added for {{hp}} but it has been made less punishing – Pikmin only trip in specific spots, and they get up faster. | Tripping was introduced in [[Pikmin (game)|the first game]], where it is fairly common.

In ''Pikmin'', a Pikmin that trips lands face-first, stays there for a while, shakes its head, and gets up. It stays in | In ''Pikmin'', a Pikmin that trips lands face-first, stays there for a while, shakes its head, and gets up. It stays in the tripped state for roughly 4 and a half seconds, from the moment it begins falling forward to the moment it starts moving again. All throughout, the Pikmin is considered a normal part of Olimar's group, so the player is able to pick up and [[throw]] the Pikmin, or even [[dismiss]] to cause it to instantly get back up and join its type's group. These two actions can be performed to get back into action faster, instead of waiting for the Pikmin to get up. | ||
In ''Pikmin 2'', tripping is roughly the same as in ''Pikmin''. Stumbling makes the Pikmin jut forward in whatever direction it was moving, for a roughly fixed distance, and for some seconds. In this game however, nothing can be done to return the Pikmin to normal faster, for either tripping or stumbling. While the Pikmin is still considered a part of the group, | In ''Pikmin 2'', tripping is roughly the same as in ''Pikmin''. Stumbling makes the Pikmin jut forward in whatever direction it was moving, for a roughly fixed distance, and for some seconds. In this game however, nothing can be done to return the Pikmin to normal faster, for either tripping or stumbling. While the Pikmin is still considered a part of the group, the [[HUD]]'s standby icon calculation will skip over that Pikmin. This means that if the player only has one Pikmin and it trips or stumbles, the HUD will show a "no Pikmin" symbol. Attempting to dismiss while a Pikmin is tripped or stumbling will keep the Pikmin in the player's group. | ||

At least in ''Pikmin'', [[cutscene]]s do not make the Pikmin immune to tripping, since it is possible for a Pikmin to trip in the [[sunset]] gathering cutscene.{{cite youtube|XDcWxnSgyqk|where a Pikmin trips in the sunset gathering cutscene|m=15|s=19|published={{date|28|December|2015}}|retrieved={{date|8|June|2019}}}} | At least in ''Pikmin'', [[cutscene]]s do not make the Pikmin immune to tripping, since it is possible for a Pikmin to trip in the [[sunset]] gathering cutscene.{{cite youtube|XDcWxnSgyqk|where a Pikmin trips in the sunset gathering cutscene|m=15|s=19|published={{date|28|December|2015}}|retrieved={{date|8|June|2019}}}} | ||

In {{hp}}, during gameplay, Pikmin are only able to trip in very specific places. These are sections of an [[area]] where there is a lot of room to walk in, and there are no real dangers nearby. These spots are purposely chosen by the area designers, by placing a <code>stumble_space</code> object on top of the line of terrain they want.

In the [[Pikmin Park]], a Pikmin that is following a line while heading towards an obstacle to clean up may trip. This temporarily slows the line down behind it, but the Pikmin will get up on its own shortly after, and speed up to catch its place. This is purely aesthetic, and has no impact on the progression of the park's cleanup. | In the [[Pikmin Park]], a Pikmin that is following a line while heading towards an obstacle to clean up may trip.
