'''Lock-on''' (or "lock on", {{j|ロックオン|Rokkuon}}, lit.: "Lock On") is a combat and exploration mechanic in {{p3}}. This feature makes the action focus on a certain [[enemy]], [[obstacle]] or other object. This allows players to maneuver around it and not lose its sight, making attacking easier. In the Wii U release of ''Pikmin 3'', locking-on also allows the player to obtain the target's name and to order the Pikmin army to [[charge]]. | '''Lock-on''' (or "lock on", {{j|ロックオン|Rokkuon}}, lit.: "Lock On", "Target Lock"{{cite quote|When the Auto Target Lock cursor finds the target you want, press {{button|switch|zr}} to manually lock onto that target.

Lock-on is achieved by getting the [[cursor]] near enough to an object that can be locked on to, and pressing the corresponding button when the game indicates that locking on is possible. Unlike other Nintendo games that have lock-on functionality (e.g. ''[[metroidwiki:Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]''), the player does not need to hold the button in order to keep it. Moving far enough away from the target will also cancel the lock-on automatically. | Lock-on is achieved by getting the [[cursor]] near enough to an object that can be locked on to, and pressing the corresponding button when the game indicates that locking on is possible.

Once locked-on, the movement controls and the camera will remain the exact same, but the [[cursor]] will be stuck on the object. That said, if gyro controls are enabled, the cursor can be moved a small distance around the locked object. If there is another object that can be locked-on to in the vicinity, the indicator will appear above it, and pressing the lock-on button again will change the focus to that one instead. This can be repeated for as long as there are objects to lock-on to, and once the player runs out, the lock-on mode ends. Lock-on can also be stopped prematurely by pressing the [[whistle]] button. | Once locked-on, the movement controls and the camera will remain the exact same, but the [[cursor]] will be stuck on the object.

In ''Pikmin 4'', the lock-on system used is very similar to ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'', though the cursor now automatically locks-on to objects within throwing distance. In cases of there being multiple objects that can be locked-on to, the object closest to the [[cursor]] will be chosen. Objects being carried by Pikmin will not be locked-on to. Pressing {{button|switch|zr}} will lock the cursor to the currently locked-on object. Like in the Wii U version of ''Pikmin 3'', pressing {{button|switch|zr}} while locked-on will cycle through nearby targets. | |||

Although hard, it is possible to lock-on to some objects that are normally too far away to allow a lock-on. This can be done with the [[Stellar Extrusion]] on the [[Tropical Wilds]]: by positioning the camera such that the fruit appears on one of the top corners, it is possible to put the cursor there, and lock-on. However, shortly after the lock takes place, it will be canceled automatically given the large distance. | Although hard, it is possible to lock-on to some objects that are normally too far away to allow a lock-on.
