'''Yellow Pikmin''' ({{j|黄ピクミン|Ki Pikumin}}) are a yellow species of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], with the special abilities of increased [[throw]] height, [[bomb-rock]] carrying (in ''Pikmin''), and [[electricity]] resistance. They are the second type discovered by [[Captain Olimar]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', the fourth type identified in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', and they're first found with [[Charlie]] in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. These Pikmin have what would appear to be large ears; these are the means by which they are primarily identifiable. It is not known, however, whether or not this actually aids their hearing. Yellow Pikmin can be thrown higher &ndash; an ability that is needed to retrieve certain elevated [[ship part]]s, [[treasure]]s and [[fruit]]s &ndash; and are immune to [[electricity]]. Additionally, Yellow Pikmin appear to like being in elevated places, such as trees &ndash; this can be concluded from the places they are first found in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3''. Their main method of production is through the [[Yellow Onion]] (or the Master Onion), and like [[Red Pikmin]], [[Blue Pikmin]], and [[Bulbmin]], their [[Maturity|buds and flowers]] are white. Like Red Pikmin and Blue Pikmin, they appear in all games of the series, and in all game modes.

==Traits and abilities==
[[File:YellowPikminCircuit.png|thumb|left|Yellow Pikmin showcasing their ability to conduct electricity.]]
Yellow Pikmin seem to have varying abilities that either change or get discovered as time goes on. In all three games, they have large ears, and can be [[throw]]n higher than other Pikmin, which is used at times throughout the games. In ''Pikmin'', Yellow Pikmin are the only ones able to wield [[bomb-rock]]s, for whatever reason. Digging into the game's files has revealed that all Pikmin were originally supposed to be able to wield bomb-rocks.{{cite web|https://tcrf.net/Pikmin#Bomb-rock_Textures|''Pikmin''|The Cutting Room Floor}} Because of the rare circumstances in which these Pikmin are needed, they are arguably the least useful type in the first game.

In ''Pikmin 2'', the [[Electricity|electrical]] hazards surface, with Yellow Pikmin now being immune to them (alongside [[Bulbmin]]). Additionally, when Olimar discovers the Yellow Pikmin, the [[Hocotate ship]] states that the static electricity readings are high. The explanation for this is never revealed, either. Although bomb-rocks appear in the same game, Yellow Pikmin are unable to use them, possibly due to the objects being much larger. Their immunity to electric hazards is very helpful, as electricity is an otherwise instant-death hazard.

In ''Pikmin 3'', Yellow Pikmin once again exhibit their immunity to electricity and their ability to be thrown high. Technically, Yellow Pikmin are able to use bomb rocks again, but this isn't anything notable since all types of Pikmin can do so in this installment. Yellow Pikmin also show a new ability &ndash; they can [[dig]] faster than other Pikmin (although Rock Pikmin can [[Tunnel#Digging speeds|dig tunnels]] even faster). This is never explained, though it could be because the ears act as a sort of shovel. This ability is rather helpful, since a number of objects in the game are buried. They also can now conduct electricity. If a [[Electrode|circuit]] is incomplete, enough Yellow Pikmin can continue the flow of electricity and complete it. The Yellow Pikmin also get flowered in the process, somehow. Their immunity to electricity is less useful now, as electricity only stuns other Pikmin, as opposed to instantly killing them.

Interestingly, in ''New Play Control! Pikmin'' and ''New Play Control! Pikmin 2'', if Yellow Pikmin are [[throw]]n from a piece of [[chiyogami]],{{cite youtube|snR1T6LUNXQ|showing Yellow Pikmin being thrown higher from a piece of chiyogami}} a [[plant]],{{cite youtube|WbDUbcuDLp4|showing Yellow Pikmin being thrown higher from a plant}} or a [[fire geyser]],{{cite youtube|Z0P5WYNFWEA|showing Yellow Pikmin being thrown higher thanks to a fire geyser}} they will ascend higher and fall more slowly. This does not work on the GameCube versions.

==In ''Pikmin''==
===Discovery===
In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', a single Yellow Pikmin can be found in [[The Forest of Hope]] inside a dormant Yellow [[Onion]]. The Onion is located near a few [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]]s and yellow pellets. It can be seen from the landing site, and is at the west of the map, beyond the area with the [[Eternal Fuel Dynamo]]. When the Onion awakens, it spits out the seed it has. Olimar uses this to grow more, eventually discovers their ability to handle bomb-rocks from the explosives nearby, and uses them to clear the path to various other [[ship part]]s.

===Required uses===
There is no task in the game that mandatorily requires Yellow Pikmin. Although only their bomb-rocks can be used to take down [[reinforced wall]]s, all of the walls in the way of [[ship part]]s can be circumvented in other ways. Those, and other ship parts that would normally require Yellow Pikmin, are explained in the recommended uses section below.

===Recommended uses===
Although not mandatory, Yellow Pikmin are important in the collection of the following ship parts.
*{{icon|Positron Generator|y}}: Yellow Pikmin are needed to take down the [[reinforced wall]] with [[bomb-rock]]s, although by throwing some Pikmin out of bounds on the stump with the three large pellets, and then having Olimar [[lie down]] next to the pellet on top of the trunk-like structure at the south, he can squeeze through and go out of bounds, and then use the Pikmin that got thrown to enter the beach area without taking down the reinforced wall.{{cite youtube|cB2E8pCVqco|showing the Positron Generator being collected using only Red Pikmin}}
*{{icon|Whimsical Radar|y}}: The area it is in is behind reinforced walls. But by using a [[pellet]] dropped by a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]] near the Yellow Onion, it is possible to clip out of bounds and onto the ledge with the ship part. From there, the player can push the part past the reinforced wall and have it recovered from there. Using the nearby Red Bulborb to push the part helps.{{cite youtube|PkuwCFaBtic|showing how to obtain the Whimsical Radar and the Geiger Counter without Yellow Pikmin|rname = wrgc}}
*{{icon|Extraordinary Bolt|y}}: This part is inside a room, blocked by a reinforced wall, but by going out of bounds with the same method as the Whimsical Radar, the player can lie down and push the part to the corner of the room. After doing so, the part will reappear outside the room the next day. From there, it can be pushed through the Yellow Onion gate by the nearby Red Bulborb, like with the Whimsical Radar.{{cite youtube|xy8gpWUNm9Q|showing how to obtain the Extraordinary Bolt, Nova Blaster, and Radiation Canopy without Yellow Pikmin|rname = rbnbrc}}
*{{icon|Radiation Canopy|y}}: Like the Whimsical Radar, the section this part is in is behind reinforced walls. But by throwing Pikmin at the ledge surrounding where the Yellow Onion is found, and by going out of bounds with the same method used to get the Whimsical Radar without Yellow Pikmin, the player can guide the Pikmin to the ship part, and take it to the part of the area north of the landing site. From there, they can follow the same procedure as the Whimsical Radar to get the part on the other side of the Yellow Onion gate.{{cite youtube|rname = rbnbrc}}
*{{icon|Nova Blaster|y}}: Same as the Radiation Canopy.{{cite youtube|rname = rbnbrc}}
*{{icon|Geiger Counter|y}}: The path to the section of the area with this ship part is blocked by a reinforced wall. However, by throwing the Pikmin to the ledge with the Snagrets, and then using a pellet obtained through a Dwarf Red Bulborb near the gate, it is possible to clip through the wall and go to the upper ledge, and bypass the reinforced wall entirely. After the Snagrets are fought and defeated, the Geiger Counter can be pushed over to the lower level and carried to the ship.{{cite youtube|rname = wrgc}}
*{{icon|Guard Satellite|y}}: The reinforced wall before the [[Beady Long Legs]] needs to be destroyed with bomb-rocks. However, by leaving Red Pikmin on the ledge to the side of the gate, and having a nearby [[Wollywog]] push Olimar through the gate, it is possible to defeat the Beady Long Legs without using Yellow Pikmin. After that, the same Wollywog can be used to push the ship part close enough to the gate, such that after the day ends, the Guard Satellite appears on the other side of the gate at the next day.{{cite youtube|uEckZ8h-2Lo|showing how to get the Guard Satellite with Red Pikmin only|published={{date|3|July|2018}}|retrieved={{date|3|July|2018}}}}
*{{icon|Libra|y}}: The part is on two platforms too high up for other Pikmin to reach. However, with [[Throw#High ledge glitch|high ledge throw]]s, it should possible to bring Reds or Blues to the Libra.{{cite youtube|79o04GEvocI|showing how, in theory, it is possible to obtain the Libra using only Red Pikmin}} Alternatively, one can get a [[pellet]] near the railing wall thanks to a [[Shearwig]], get between the two, [[lie down]] to pop up on the railing, and from there walk up to the ship part, where it can then be pushed down.{{cite youtube|UfqG2lc36lw|showing how to get Captain Olimar up to the Libra's platform}}
*{{icon|UV Lamp|y}}{{source needed}}: The part is on top of a ledge that is too high for Pikmin to be thrown normally.
*{{icon|Chronos Reactor|y}}: The part is on top of a ledge that is too high for Pikmin to be thrown normally. Normally the player must convert Blue Pikmin into Yellow Pikmin, bring the part down, and then convert Yellow Pikmin back into Blue Pikmin to carry across the water. But by throwing Blue Pikmin to ledge by the Spotty Bulbear, and using said enemy to push Olimar into the wall, he will pop up on top of the ledge, and will be able to escort the Blue Pikmin directly to the ship part.
*{{icon|Secret Safe|y}}: If a bomb rock spawns below the ledge where they normally spawn, Captain Olimar can [[lie down]] between it and the wall to pop up on the platform where the bombs usually spawn. From there, the player can meet up with Pikmin thrown at a high ledge on the other side of the area. To recover the ship part, it has to be pushed into the opening after the second [[bridge]] by lying down, then pushed into the water, and then all the way until after the first gate.{{cite youtube|DgVpsf_0X7I|explaining how the Secret Safe can be collected with Red Pikmin only|published={{date|10|August|2018}}|retrieved={{date|11|August|2018}}}}

==In ''Pikmin 2''==
===Discovery===
[[File:YellowPikminDiscovered.png|thumb|right|200px|The Yellow Pikmin resting on a tree in ''Pikmin 2''.]]
In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', a group of five Yellow Pikmin are found in the [[Perplexing Pool]] near the center of the map, at the end of a long and twisted path; White Pikmin are necessary just to reach them, and a [[Fiery Bulblax]] guards the entrance to their Onion. They are found relaxing on top of a tree, and exhibit static electricity flowing from their bodies on their discovery [[cutscene]], which is triggered after they are whistled down from their spot. The Hocotate ship states that the static electricity readings are "unusually high".

===Required uses===
There is no task in ''Pikmin 2'' that requires Yellow Pikmin exclusively. Even if Yellow Pikmin are required to destroy [[electric gate]]s, none need to be taken down for a full completion. All treasures can be collected with other Pikmin types with the use of exploits, detailed in the recommended uses section below.

===Recommended uses===
Although not mandatory, Yellow Pikmin are important in the completion of the following tasks.
*Treasures
**{{icon|Healing Cask|y}} (US) / {{icon|Hypnotic Platter|y|v=EU}} (Europe): It is on a high ledge, though with exploits, [[Throw#High ledge trick|other Pikmin can reach it]] as well.
**{{icon|Decorative Goo|y}}: To reach the treasure, the [[electric gate]] blocking the northern section of the map needs to be cleared. But by using the [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Carrying charge|carrying charge glitch]], the treasure can be sped up behind the gate, and carried over the wall next to the gate.{{cite youtube|govlosZaj-0|of the Awakening Wood being completed in a single day, with the Decorative Goo carried over the wall}}
**{{icon|Gherkin Gate|y}}: The treasure is on top of a high ledge, requiring Yellow Pikmin to reach it. The [[Throw#High ledge glitch|high ledge trick]] can also be used to get it with any other Pikmin type.
**{{icon|Impediment Scourge|y}}: Same as the Gherkin Gate.
**{{icon|Optical Illustration|y}} (US) / {{icon|Abstract Masterpiece|y|v=EU}} (Europe): The treasure is in a room closed by an electric gate. By using the [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Carrying charge|carrying charge glitch]], it can be carried past the gate, though.{{cite web|http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm33858895|Niconico video|Niconico|published={{date|15|September|2018}}|retrieved={{date|6|October|2018}}}}
**{{icon|Conifer Spire|y}}: There is an [[electric gate]] blocking the path towards this treasure. The player can [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Carrying charge|charge]] the treasure and make it go past the electric gate.{{cite youtube|uDuzv3sDqRg|of the Conifer Spire being carried beyond the electric gate with the carrying charge glitch|published={{date|21|September|2018}}|retrieved={{date|23|September|2018}}}} Alternatively, the player can reach the Conifer Spire in the same way they can reach Hole of Heroes (see below). Then, they can move the treasure up the bamboo chute towards Hole of Heroes by exploiting a strange treasure mechanic{{cite youtube|i5Y1SAYeWEM|of how treasures can move without being carried}}. At some point, the treasure must clip through the floor, which happens for unknown reasons. Then, once the treasure is located by Hole of Heroes, the Pikmin will carry Conifer Spire in a path that does not go through the electric gate.{{cite youtube|jJ9ITk0oTao|Part 1 of collecting Conifer Spire without Yellow Pikmin}}{{cite youtube|WjMpxNyPZvo|Part 2 of collecting Conifer Spire without Yellow Pikmin}}.
*Enemies
**{{icon|Anode Beetle|y}}: Anode Beetles can shock other types of Pikmin if there are at least two, which will instantly kill them. However, it is possible to kill them even with no Yellow Pikmin.
*Caves
**[[Bulblax Kingdom]]: The entrance to the cave is blocked off by an electric gate. It is, however, possible to access the cave without destroying it, by exploiting a [[Path oversights#Awakening Wood|carrying path oversight]].
**[[Shower Room]]: The access to the Shower Room is blocked off by an electric gate. With the [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Seesaw block glitch|seesaw block glitch]], it's possible to enter the tile section of the map where the cave is without destroying the gate.
**[[Glutton's Kitchen]]: The cave is blocked by an electric gate, but with a [[Path oversights#Perplexing Pool|carrying path oversight]], it's possible to have a Pikmin carry a leader over the wall, leading to the entrance of the cave.
**[[Hole of Heroes]]: The path towards Hole of Heroes is obstructed by an electric gate, but the player can go around it while out of bounds. To get out of bounds, the player can utilize the knockback from a [[Fiery Blowhog]]{{cite youtube|dpHRx-VQ0bM|of a player getting out of bounds in Wistful Wild from a Fiery Blowhog}}, a [[Creeping Chrysanthemum]]{{cite youtube|5nBUQVSfXw8|of a player getting out of bounds in Wistful Wild from a Chrysanthemum}}, or a [[Gatling Groink]]{{cite youtube|1zme0ZgocSA|of a player getting out of bounds in Wistful Wild from a Gatling Groink}}.
*Others
**Blue [[Onion]]: The electric gate the blocks the path to the Blue Onion can only be destroyed by Yellows. Despite that, one can reach the Onion by using the seesaw block glitch, and this trick is used to save a day in the [[5 day run]].

==In ''Pikmin 3''==
===Discovery===
In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', Yellow Pikmin are first encountered by [[Captain Charlie]] on [[day]] 1, at the [[Distant Tundra]], with some of them idling atop some tree branches. However, they are not officially introduced as Yellow Pikmin yet. After helping him for a bit, they flee when he faces the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]]. Later on, when going to the Distant Tundra for the first time with [[Alph]] and [[Brittany]], Brittany falls out of the ship and into a cave (which consequently separates her from [[Alph]]). She finds two Yellow Pikmin trying to complete a [[Electrode|circuit]] in the cave. The player must [[pluck]] three buried Yellow Pikmin nearby to complete the circuit; upon doing so, a light-bulb is activated, causing the [[Yellow Onion]] to fly up out of the ground. Brittany then uses the newly discovered Pikmin type to reunite with Alph.

===Required uses===
Yellow Pikmin must be used in order to collect the following fruits and defeat the following enemies, and there are no glitches or exploits that allow other Pikmin types to do so.
*Fruits
**{{icon|Astringent Clump|y}} ([[Distant Tundra]]): An electric gate blocks the path this fruit takes to get back to the ship.
**{{icon|Astringent Clump|y}} ([[Garden of Hope]]): This fruit is in an area closed off by an electric gate. Although one could throw a leader to the bricks above the gate via the first set of elevator platforms, and then use Winged Pikmin with the [[charge]] command, the gate still needs to be taken down.
**{{icon|Citrus Lump|y|v=FF}} ([[Distant Tundra]], in the cave): This fruit can only be collected if the [[Bloominous Stemple]]s are first expanded. While Winged Pikmin can reach it, they will simply drop into the maze of stems below, and be unable to carry the Citrus Lump anywhere meaningful.
**{{icon|Cupid's Grenade|y|v=FF}} ([[Distant Tundra]], near the iron ball): This fruit is in a section of the area blocked by an electric gate.
**{{icon|Pocked Airhead|y}} ([[Garden of Hope]]): This fruit is in a room closed off by an electric gate.
**{{icon|Stellar Extrusion|y}} ([[Garden of Hope]]): This fruit is in a cave blocked by 2 electric gates.
**{{icon|Velvety Dreamdrop|y}} ([[Distant Tundra]]): This fruit is in a section of the area blocked by an electric gate.
*Upgrades
**{{icon|Anti-Electrifier|y}}: This upgrade is in a section of the area blocked by an electric gate.
*Obstacles
**{{icon|Electric gate|y|v=P3}}: Electric gates can only be destroyed by Yellow Pikmin.
*Enemies
**None

===Near-required uses===
Yellow Pikmin are intended to be used to complete these tasks, but through the use of glitches, exploits, or tricks, the tasks can be completed without Yellow Pikmin.
*Access the [[Distant Tundra]]: At least 20 Yellow Pikmin must be grown upon first landing in the Distant Tundra with Brittany to be able to exit the cave to access the rest of the area and continue the game, but it is possible to exit the cave by going [[out of bounds]], and it is still possible to rescue [[Charlie]] with further glitches. This makes Yellow Pikmin skippable, though many fruits become inaccessible if this is done.
*Get {{icon|Winged Pikmin|y}}: To rescue the Winged [[Onion]] and unlock Winged Pikmin, an [[electrode]] must be used to access fragments required to build a bridge to the new Onion. But by clipping through the wall in the river, it is possible to get to the Winged Onion without building the bridge.
*Fruits
**{{icon|Dusk Pustules|y}} ([[Distant Tundra]]): This fruit is in a cave blocked by an electric gate far away. But by going out of bounds to get to the Vehemoth Phosbat's arena without Yellow Pikmin, it is possible to collect this fruit.
**{{icon|Dusk Pustules|y}} ([[Garden of Hope]]): This fruit is in a cave blocked by an electric gate. However, there is a glitch that allows the gate to be bypassed.{{source needed}}
**{{icon|Heroine's Tear|y}}: This fruit is in a cave blocked by an electric gate far away. But by going out of bounds to get to the Vehemoth Phosbat's arena without Yellow Pikmin, it is possible to collect this fruit.
**{{icon|Juicy Gaggle|y}} ([[Tropical Wilds]]): A [[Bouncy Mushroom]] that can only be reached with Yellow Pikmin must be used to access the cave with this fruit by normal means. A glitch can also be used, though.{{source needed}}
*Enemies
**{{icon|Vehemoth Phosbat|y}}: This boss can only be harmed normally by lighting up the room, which can only be done with Yellow Pikmin. However, with perseverance, it's possible to defeat it with any Pikmin type, given that it becomes temporarily vulnerable when it uses its sucking attack.

===Recommended uses===
Although not mandatory, Yellow Pikmin are important in the completion of the following tasks.
*Fruits
**{{icon|Citrus Lump|y|v=FF}} ([[Distant Tundra]], buried): This fruit is near a [[Bearded Amprat]], and defeating the enemy first is recommended; plus Yellow Pikmin dig faster.
**{{icon|Disguised Delicacy|y|v=FF}} ([[Tropical Wilds]]): This fruit is inside a [[Shaggy Long Legs]], and half of its arena is closed off by an electric gate. While it is possible to defeat it while staying in the second half, it is much faster to use both halves.
**{{icon|Stellar Extrusion|y}} ([[Tropical Wilds]]): This fruit is so high up that Pikmin must be thrown at it from a ledge that requires a Yellow Pikmin [[seesaw block]] puzzle to get to. Alternatively, it can be accessed by manipulating the [[camera]] and sending Winged Pikmin to [[charge]] at it.
**{{icon|Tremendous Sniffer|y}}: This fruit is blocked by a [[reinforced wall]], and the [[bomb rock]]s in this area are easiest to get with Yellow Pikmin.
*Enemies
**{{icon|Bearded Amprat|y}}: This creature can emit electricity and stun all non-Yellow Pikmin.

==In ''Hey! Pikmin''==
{{todo|Describe the first encounter with Yellow Pikmin, and write a list of treasures requiring Yellow Pikmin to collect.}}
===Discovery===

===Uses===
*Enemies
**{{icon|Electric Cottonade|y}}: Yellow Pikmin are the only Pikmin able to defeat it.
**{{icon|Electric Spectralid|y}}: They don't pose any threat to Pikmin, since only electricity-resistant Yellow Pikmin appear where they appear.
**{{icon|Electripede|y}}: Even though this enemy can only be activated, not defeated, Yellow Pikmin are the only ones able to activate it.

==In ''Pikmin Bloom''==
In {{pb}}, Yellow Pikmin are the second type obtained, and are unlocked at [[level]] 4. They have no special features, being a standard type that can carry 1 weight unit and takes 1000 steps to grow from a [[seedling]].

Yellow Pikmin, like in ''Pikmin 2'', are immune to electrical moves like Pikachu's Thunder or forward smash, and can attack with electric properties. They are also thrown higher and longer than other Pikmin. In ''Brawl'', a [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#Stickers|sticker]] for a Yellow Pikmin also exists.
