'''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 (game)|Pikmin]]''), and [[electricity]] resistance. They are the second type discovered by [[Captain Olimar]] in ''Pikmin'', the fourth type identified in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', the first type found with [[Charlie]] in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. In {{p4}}, Pikmin can be discovered in any order (with the exception to [[Red Pikmin]]). These Pikmin have lamellae which resemble large ears; these are the means by which they are primarily identifiable. 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 the only game mode they are missing from in comparison to the other two, is [[2-Player Battle]].

Unlike other Pikmin types, the abilities and role of Yellow Pikmin have not always been consistent. Despite this, in all four main-series games, they have large ears and can be [[throw]]n higher than other Pikmin, which is useful for collecting high-up objects, latching on to enemies like [[Beady Long Legs]], or other such purposes.
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'', Yellow Pikmin are uniquely able to carry and toss [[bomb-rock]]s (though 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}} Having this role makes Yellow Pikmin arguably much more situational than Red or Blue Pikmin, and as a result, it is not typically necessary to have more than a handful of them in Olimar's squad at any given time.
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.


''Pikmin 2'' introduces [[Electricity|electrical]] hazards into the series, 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, suggesting that Yellow Pikmin conduct electricity as well (though this would not be one of their in-game abilities until ''Pikmin 3''). This newfound electrical immunity makes Yellow Pikmin very helpful in dealing with electrical enemies and hazards that can instantly kill other Pikmin types, as well as tearing down [[electric gate]]s. Their ability to carry bomb-rocks does not factor into this game, since bomb-rocks now only appear as a hazard for the leaders' squads and cannot be carried by any Pikmin.
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 because the lamellae act as a 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.


In ''Pikmin 3'', Yellow Pikmin once again exhibit their immunity to electricity and their ability to be thrown high. They can also carry bomb-rocks again, but this is no longer a distinct feature of Yellow Pikmin, since all Pikmin types can carry them now. 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 because the lamellae act as a shovel.{{fact}} This ability is rather helpful, since a number of objects in the game are buried. In addition, Yellow Pikmin can form a wire and conduct electricity to link a [[Electrode|circuit]] together, which is required to progress through the game in certain points. When completing a circuit, the Yellow Pikmin involved will become flowered if they were not already. While electricity is not nearly as dangerous or prevalent a hazard in ''Pikmin 3'' as it was in ''2'', Yellow Pikmin are still useful for dealing with electrical hazards and gates.
They remain the same in ''Pikmin 4'', although with doubled digging speed from the previous game, their title as champion diggers is without question. Attack power does not influence digging speed in this game, giving them an even further advantage as all other types all have normal digging speed. Electricity can kill once again, acting like other hazards and killing after 5 seconds. Circuits did not return, and Yellow Pikmin are not given much of a use beyond [[Blossoming Arcadia]], as electricty stops appearing for the most part. Their high throwing height is somewhat circumvented by [[Oatchi]]'s ability to knock dowm high objects. Thankfully, Oatchi's ability to essentially replace this type is not exclusive to Yellow Pikmin, due to Oatchi's role as a jack of all trades, so Yellow Pikmin are not necessarily useless.
 
Yellow Pikmin return with the same abilities in ''Pikmin 4'', though they are now unrivaled by other Pikmin types in digging speed, being outmatched only by [[Oatchi]] with enough upgrades. Additionally, as attack power does not influence digging speed in this game, Yellow Pikmin are now the only type that can dig faster, making them uniquely suited to that role. Though electricity as a hazard is more dangerous in this title than it was in ''Pikmin 3'', there are overall fewer electric enemies and hazards in ''Pikmin 4'' than previous games, so Yellow Pikmin are likely to mainly see use for their digging and throw height. The latter ability is somewhat nullified by Oatchi's ability to knock many objects off of ledges, but overall, this does not render Yellow Pikmin obsolete, since Oatchi is only ever one unit in the squad.


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.

===Discovery===
In {{P4}}, Yellow Pikmin can be first discovered in the [[Sun-Speckled Terrace]], typically first in the [[Crackling Cauldron]], but they can also be found in the [[Industrial Maze]]. Alternatively, collecting the Yellow Onion will cause the Master Onion to produce a Yellow seed. They are typically the third type discovered, after [[Ice Pikmin]]. Their introductory cutscene has the Yellow Pikmin leap high in the air with crackles of electricity zapping out of their body, demonstrating their higher throwing range and immunity to electricity.
In [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]], there are Yellow Onions in the Sun-Speckled Terrace and the Blossoming Arcadia.
===Required uses===
There are no required uses for Yellow Pikmin. All treasures, Onions, and castaways can be collected without the use of Yellow Pikmin. However, they are useful for collecting some objects as seen below.
===Recommended uses===
Although not mandatory, Yellow Pikmin are important in the completion of the following tasks.
*Treasures
**{{icon|Aspiration-Ritual Ball|y|v=P4}}: The treasure can be reached by Yellow Pikmin. However, it can also be reached by Winged Pikmin or by being knocked down by Oatchi's rush.
**{{icon|Blonde Impostor|y|v=P4}} ([[Secluded Courtyard]]): The treasure is on an [[Arachnode]] web, unreachable to every other Pikmin type unless the player stands on the edge of the plant pot, as it is possible to reach the web from there. Winged Pikmin can also grab it.
**{{icon|Cookie of Nibbled Circles|y|v=P4}}: The treasure is intended to be reached by Yellow Pikmin, and Oatchi can't rush it, but the player can stand on the sizzling floor which raises their height slightly. Alternatively, the player can use a Glowmob or use Winged Pikmin.
**{{icon|Daughter Doll Head|y|v=P4}}: Yellow Pikmin can be thrown onto the platform where the treasure is, but Oatchi can also rush twice to get it down.
**{{icon|Disguised Delicacy|y|v=P4}} ([[Secluded Courtyard]]): The treasure is guarded by an [[Anode Dweevil]].
**{{icon|Disk of Sorrowful Wisdom|y|v=P4}} ([[Plunder Palace]]): The treasure is guarded by 2 [[Bearded Amprat]]s.
**{{icon|Dusty Bed|y|v=P4}}: The treasure is found hanging off the ceiling. While every Pikmin type can bring it down if thrown by a ledge, Yellow Pikmin allow to bring it down without walking up the pathway to the next sublevel entrance (which is blocked off by an electric gate, making Yellow Pikmin even more useful grabbing this treasure).
**{{icon|Floral Instigator|y|v=P4}}: To ensure the safe transportation of the treasure back, the nearby [[Bearded Amprat]] should be defeated.
**{{icon|Lamp of Inspiration|y|v=P4}}: The treasure can be reached by Yellow Pikmin, however it can also be reached with a precisen throw or knocked down by Oatchi's rush.
**{{icon|Masterpiece Plank|y|v=P4}}: The treasure can only be reached by Yellow Pikmin. However, it can be knocked down by Oatchi's rush.
**{{icon|Mechanical Harp (Memory Song)|y|v=P4}}: The treasure is too high for normal Pikmin to reach and can't be knocked down by Oatchi's rush, however it is possible to reach by rapidly throwing Pikmin causing them to push each other upwards and into the ledge.
**{{icon|Memory Fragment (Top...Probably?)|y|v=P4}}: The treasure can only be reached by Yellow Pikmin. However, it can be knocked down by Oatchi's rush.
**{{icon|Mooching Vase|y|v=P4}}: The treasure is too high for normal Pikmin to reach and due to it being fully buried, [[Winged Pikmin]] can't be charged at it and Oatchi can't knock it down. However, it is able to unearthed with [[bomb rock]]s, allowing Oatchi to knock it down.
**{{icon|Mysterious Carriage|y|v=P4}} (Sun-Speckled Terrace): It is behind a [[clipboard]] which Yellow Pikmin can reach but most types cannot. However, Winged Pikmin and Glow Pikmin (using their Glowmob) can reach the handle.
**{{icon|Olfactory Sculpture|y|v=P4}}: 10 Pikmin must be thrown across a [[Pit]] to carry it back. Yellow Pikmin are the least likely to fall down when thrown.
**{{icon|Orb of Destruction|y|v=P4}}: The treasure can only be reached by Yellow Pikmin. However, it can be knocked down by Oatchi's rush.
**{{icon|Personal-Injury Plank|y|v=P4}}: The treasure can only be reached by Yellow Pikmin. However, it can be knocked down by Oatchi's rush.
**{{icon|Planetary Rubber Cutie|y|v=P4}} (Plunder Palace): The treasure is on an Arachnode web unreachable to most Pikmin types. However, the player can stand on a nearby ledge while throwing other Pikmin types. Winged Pikmin can also reach it.
**{{icon|S.S. Chocolate|y|v=P4}} ([[Crackling Cauldron]]): same as the Cookie of Nibbled Circles.
**{{icon|Satellite Shield|y|v=P4}}: It is partially buried on a high ledge. Other Pikmin can reach it too if thrown whilst standing on the wooden branch nearby.
**{{icon|Searing Acidshock|y|v=P4}} ([[Primordial Thicket]]): The treasure is inside a [[Baldy Long Legs]], which is best fought with Yellow or Winged Pikmin due to its height.
**{{icon|Sphere of Truth|y|v=P4}}: The treasure hangs off a cobweb unreachable to most Pikmin types. However, using a Glowmob or Winged Pikmin allows for it to be reached. Alternatively, if the player stands on the nearby ledge, any Pikmin type can reach it.
**{{icon|Stellar Extrusion|y|v=P4}} (Serene Shores): The treasure can only be reached by Yellow Pikmin, however it can be knocked down by Oatchi's rush. Alternatively, thrown Pikmin from the ledge near The Sand Keep base will also reach it.
**{{icon|Time Marker|y|v=P4}}: The treasure is inhabited by an Anode Dweevil.
**{{icon|Unlimited Locomotive|y|v=P4}}: The treasure is behind an electric gate. However, the gate can be destroyed with the Anti-Electrifier, bomb rocks/trackonators/mines or Glow Pikmin.
*Ship parts
**{{icon|Automatic Gear|y|v=P4}} (Blossoming Arcadia): Yellow Pikmin are the easiest to throw at the ship part.
**{{icon|Geiger Counter|y|v=P4}}: The ship part is in a section blocked off by an electric gate. Alternatively, bomb rocks can destroy the gate.
**{{icon|Ionium Jet|y|v=P4}} ([[Blossoming Arcadia]]): Just like the ''Mechanical Harp (Memory Song)'', it is found in the same place as the treasure in story mode so the same strategy applies. Alternatively, player 2 can throw nectar near it and then any Pikmin type can be thrown up the slope nearby.
**{{icon|Nova Blaster |y|v=P4}}: Normally, Yellow Pikmin are used to pull down a clipboard, then Moss breaks the pots, then the Pikmin push down a climbing rope. But if Olimar stands on a ledge near the clipboard and the climbing rope, the Pikmin can reach the climbing rope.
**{{icon|Omega Stabilizer|y|v=P4}}: The treasure can only be reached by Yellow Pikmin, however it can be knocked down by Moss' rush.
**{{icon|Pilot's Seat|y|v=P4}}: The ship part is in a section blocked off by an electric gate. Alternatively, bomb rocks can destroy the gate.
**{{icon|Radiation Canopy|y|v=P4}}: The ship part is inside a [[Baldy Long Legs]], which is best fought with Yellow Pikmin.
**{{icon|Repair-Type Bolt|y|v=P4}} (Sun-Speckled Terrace): The treasure is normally only reached by Yellow Pikmin, but by carefully positioning [[Olimar]], it is also possible to reach the part with [[Red Pikmin|Red]] or [[Blue Pikmin]]. Alternatively, Moss's rush can knock it down.
*Onions
**{{icon|Flarlic|y|v=P4}} (Sun-Speckled Terrace): It is partially buried on a high ledge, meaning it can't be knocked down by Oatchi. Alternatively, Winged Pikmin can reach it.
**{{icon|Flarlic|y|v=P4}} (Secluded Courtyard): It is partially buried on a high ledge, meaning it can't be knocked down by Oatchi. Alternatively, Winged Pikmin can reach it.
**{{icon|Flarlic|y|v=P4}} ([[Serene Shores]], Olimar's Shipwreck Tale): It is in an [[Arachnode]] web, but a precise [[Glitches in Pikmin 4#Oatchi boosting|Oatchi boost]] can get Olimar up on a high ledge, allowing him to get it.
**{{icon|Yellow Onion|y|v=P4}} (Blossoming Arcadia): The Onion is found near a Bearded Amprat.
*Enemies
**{{icon|Anode Beetle|y|v=P4}}: This enemy can create an electrical current which can be connected to another Anode Beetle if one is nearby, but it can be defeated by any Pikmin type.
**{{icon|Anode Dweevil|y|v=P4}}: This enemy can electrocute a large group of Pikmin at once, but can be defeated with any Pikmin type.
**{{icon|Baldy Long Legs|y|v=P4}}: Due to it being so high, the only Pikmin that can be directly thrown at its core are Yellow and Winged Pikmin.
**{{icon|Bearded Amprat|y|v=P4}}: They can stroke their fur to create an electrical charge which shocks all Pikmin, but otherwise can be attacked by all.
**{{icon|Shockcake|y|v=P4}}: When it lands on its electric underside, a shockwave is expelled around itself in a small radius.
**{{icon|Ancient Sirehound|y|v=P4}}: One phase of this [[boss]]'s attack includes electrical attacks.
*Obstacles
**{{icon|Clipboard|y|v=P4}}: Some clipboards can only be brought down by Yellow or Winged Pikmin due to their height. These clipboards have their handles painted yellow.
**{{icon|Electric gate|y|v=P4}}: While Yellow Pikmin are the only Pikmin type that can destroy electric gates, they can also be destroyed by Oatchi when equipped with the Anti-Electrifier.
**{{icon|Electricity generator|y|v=P4}}: While every Pikmin type can destroy these generators, Yellow Pikmin are the only one who don't risk being electrocuted.
*Others
**{{icon|Castaway|y|v=P4}} (Crackling Cauldron): Same as the Cookie of Nibbled Circles, standing on the sizzling floor for extra height.
**{{icon|Castaway|y|v=P4}} (Industrial Maze): Yellow Pikmin can reach it, but Winged Pikmin can also reach it. Alternatively, Pikmin thrown from a ledge can also reach it.

[[File:Cavern of Confusion first Yellows.jpg|thumb|The first appearance of Yellow Pikmin in ''Hey! Pikmin''.]]
In {{hp}}, Yellow Pikmin are first found in the [[Cavern of Confusion]], in the first sector, [[Brilliant Garden]]. Upon entering the area, Olimar is stuck due to a [[dirt block]] until he calls a group of Yellow Pikmin using his whistle. The rest of the area shows off their higher throw height. After the area is complete they join the Pikmin Park like any other Pikmin type.


===Required uses===
===Required uses===
''Hey! Pikmin'' does not let players choose which types to bring to a task, and while many treasures require Yellow Pikmin to collect, Yellow Pikmin will always be present when this is the case.
In the [[Pikmin Park]], electrical wire-type clutter can only be destroyed by Yellow Pikmin.

===Discovery===
[[File:P4 Voyage Log Olimar 16.png|left|200px]]
In {{P4}}, Yellow Pikmin can be first discovered in [[Sun-Speckled Terrace]], usually first in [[Crackling Cauldron]], but can also be found in the [[Industrial Maze]]. Alternatively, collecting the Yellow Onion will cause the Master Onion to produce a Yellow seed. They are usually the third type discovered, after [[Ice Pikmin]]. Their introductory cutscene has the Yellow Pikmin leap high in the air with crackles of electricity zapping out of their body, demonstrating their higher throwing range and immunity to electricity.
{{transcript|I've decided to call the yellow-colored Pikmin with large earlike appendages "{{color|Yellow Pikmin|darkorange}}." I liked that name a lot more than Ear Pikmin.

Yellow Pikmin appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

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.
