'''Climbing sticks''' are obstacles found in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']] and ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' that require [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to build and shimmy up them. They are somewhat similar to [[bridge]]s, but they are not used by [[leader]]s, nor by Pikmin carrying something. [[Sheargrub]]s and [[Shearwig]]s will fortunately not dismantle these useful ladders, although they are automatically leveled every day after sundown in ''Pikmin''. They are found in every level in ''Pikmin'' except [[The Forest of Hope]] and [[The Final Trial]]. In ''Pikmin 3'', Pikmin that carry objects on a route will use climbing sticks. Some climbing sticks need to be built, while others are already built.

In ''Pikmin'', an interesting event that can happen is that there is a good chance that one or more Pikmin will start climbing the stick while other Pikmin are working on it. This is commonly seen on [[The Impact Site]], when the player wants to bring 100 Pikmin up the trunk. [[Group move|Swarming]] the climbing stick will increase the chances of this happening. Additionally, swarming many Pikmin on a finished climbing stick might cause some Pikmin to get stuck on the bottom.

Climbing sticks (known among fans as twigs prior to Pikmin 3) are obstacles found in Pikmin and Pikmin 3 that require Pikmin to build and shimmy up them. They are somewhat similar to bridges, but they are not used by leaders, nor by Pikmin carrying something. Sheargrubs and Shearwigs will fortunately not dismantle these useful ladders, although they are automatically leveled every day after sundown in Pikmin. They are found in every level in Pikmin except The Forest of Hope and The Final Trial. In Pikmin 3, Pikmin that carry objects on a route will use climbing sticks. Some climbing sticks need to be built, while others are already built.

In Pikmin, an interesting event that can happen is that there is a good chance that one or more Pikmin will start climbing the stick while other Pikmin are working on it. This is commonly seen on The Impact Site, when the player wants to bring 100 Pikmin up the trunk. Swarming the climbing stick will increase the chances of this happening. Additionally, swarming many Pikmin on a finished climbing stick might cause some Pikmin to get stuck on the bottom.

Pikmin

The Impact Site

There is only one climbing stick here, near the red and blue Onions leading to 10 pellets of each color.

The Forest Navel

In The Forest Navel, climbing sticks appear very often. One is near the #1 Ionium Jet and some bomb rocks, one is used as a shortcut just behind the blue Onion, and the final one is near the Crimson Candypop Bud where an Iridescent Flint Beetle also resides.

The Distant Spring

In The Distant Spring, climbing sticks are a bit less common. There is one behind the S.S. Dolphin and the blue Onion, and the other is in the small pit near the UV Lamp.
