The '''Mine''' is an item in {{p3}} and {{p4}} that latches on to the surface it lands on and [[Explosion|explodes]] when it detects movement. It resembles a metal barrel with a light on top. This light is green when the mine is unarmed. When it sticks onto something, the light will turn yellow, and two yellow lighthouse-like beacon lights will spin around its equator. A "boop" sound can also be heard every second or so. When it detects movement nearby, the light and beacons turn magenta, it beeps faster, and after three seconds, it explodes.

In ''Pikmin 3'', the mine is found exclusively in [[Bingo Battle]], commonly obtained from a roulette spin, which can be caused by retrieving a [[Cupid's Grenade]], but can also be found on layout C of the [[Jigsaw Colosseum]], and from [[dirt mound]]s in layout C of the [[Rusted Labyrinth]]. When the "Mine" roulette wheel item is used, a mine spawns near the player's group, and at that point, the player can issue a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to pick it up. The Pikmin can then be thrown at the ground, a wall, an [[enemy]], a [[fruit]], or anything else, and where it touches, the Mine will stick. From this point on, the Mine will be armed, and will detonate whenever a leader draws near. If there is a mine on a fruit or any carryable object, and that object is brought to an Onion without the Mine blowing up, the Mine will slide off and fall on the ground.

The Mine (センサーバクダン?, lit.: "Sensor bomb") is an item in Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4 that latches on to the surface it lands on and explodes when it detects movement. It resembles a metal barrel with a light on top. This light is green when the mine is unarmed. When it sticks onto something, the light will turn yellow, and two yellow lighthouse-like beacon lights will spin around its equator. A "boop" sound can also be heard every second or so. When it detects movement nearby, the light and beacons turn magenta, it beeps faster, and after three seconds, it explodes.

In Pikmin 3, the mine is found exclusively in Bingo Battle, commonly obtained from a roulette spin, which can be caused by retrieving a Cupid's Grenade, but can also be found on layout C of the Jigsaw Colosseum, and from dirt mounds in layout C of the Rusted Labyrinth. When the "Mine" roulette wheel item is used, a mine spawns near the player's group, and at that point, the player can issue a Pikmin to pick it up. The Pikmin can then be thrown at the ground, a wall, an enemy, a fruit, or anything else, and where it touches, the Mine will stick. From this point on, the Mine will be armed, and will detonate whenever a leader draws near. If there is a mine on a fruit or any carryable object, and that object is brought to an Onion without the Mine blowing up, the Mine will slide off and fall on the ground.

In Pikmin 4, Mines are a Pack item that can be purchased up to five times a day from Russ, or found in a Mystery Capsule during Dandori Battles. Mines function similarly to their Pikmin 3 version, except that the light stays green when active and changes to an orange-yellow when triggered, gaining the same pre-explosion glow as Bomb Rocks. Mines cannot be detonated by Pikmin outside of Dandori Battles.
