White Pikmin are smaller than other types of Pikmin. They have red eyes that in ''Pikmin 2'' allow them to locate treasures that are completely [[Dig|buried underground]], unlike other Pikmin, which is demonstrated shortly after discovering them in the [[White Flower Garden]]. They are the fastest of all Pikmin, such that, when flowered, they run at least as quickly as [[leader]]s equipped with [[Rush Boots]]. In ''Pikmin 3'', this is their main ability, as they are only found in Mission Mode, which requires carrying back treasures quickly. In ''Pikmin 3'' and ''Pikmin 4'', they have weaker attack power than most other Pikmin, on par with [[Winged Pikmin]], but match the strength of the standard types in ''Pikmin 2''.

In ''Pikmin 3'' and ''Pikmin 4'', they have weaker attack power than most other Pikmin, on par with [[Winged Pikmin]], but match the strength of the standard types in ''Pikmin 2''.


White Pikmin also possess the unique ability to be able to stand through [[poison]]ous gases without choking to death, as do [[Bulbmin]]. This makes them quite important when taking out poisonous enemies and destroying [[poison emitter]]s, although other types of Pikmin might still be able to cause damage, with some difficulty. Upon being eaten, White Pikmin eject a poisonous fluid into the eater, which poisons them. This causes instant [[Health|damage]], and is often enough to kill smaller enemies, like a [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]]. With that said, this does not prevent the Pikmin's death, so it should be used as a last resort. The damage dealt by poison varies per game and [[difficulty]] mode. In ''Pikmin 3'', they seem to not be immune to [[ink]]{{cite youtube|SmtH-P8W4N8|demonstrating how White Pikmin are inked by a Sputtlefish in water}} or the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]]'s dust,{{cite youtube|zjZsrXtwiSk|demonstrating how White Pikmin are not immune to the Vehemoth Phosbat's dust}} which are the two closest things to poison in the game. In ''Pikmin 4'', White Pikmin are no longer the only Pikmin type that can unearth completely buried objects and deal less poison damage to enemies that eat them than in ''Pikmin 2''. However, they make up for this with their swift movement and carry speed (particularly useful in [[Dandori Challenge]]s) and their ability to deal with the greater number of poison-spewing enemies and hazards, particularly within the final area of the game: the [[Primordial Thicket]].
