Fire is a hazard in the Pikmin series. Most Pikmin types are not resistant to fire, and if they touch a fire source, the top of their stems will begin to burn up, they will run around in a panicked state, and if not saved, will eventually succumb and die. They can be saved by being whistled at. Red Pikmin, Bulbmin and Glow Pikmin are completely immune to fire, making them necessary to handle obstacles or enemies that can produce or are under fire. Ice Pikmin burn quicker than other types.
Leaders are not normally invulnerable to fire hazards: they will take damage and be knocked back if they touch fire. However, by salvaging the Scorch Guard, they will be rendered completely immune to fire. However, they can still be stunned by the Titan Dweevil's Flare Cannon.
In Pikmin 2, Pikmin that are on fire will not be affected by explosions.[1]

Some obstacles and enemies can generate flames, while others are constantly burning up.
Fire geyser – geysers poking from the ground that spit streams of fire.
Flames – flame-covered floors, blocking the way until they are put out.
Sizzling floor – circular patches of red-hot ground that will constantly burn unless destroyed.
Fire starter – small pinecone objects which can only be carried by Red Pikmin in Pikmin 4.
Fiery Blowhog – enemies capable of spitting flames.
Fiery Dweevil – enemies that burn up temporarily when threatened.
Fiery Bulblax – grub-dogs that are constantly on fire.
Pyroclasmic Slooch – slug-like enemies that are always on fire. They also leave behind a trail of flames.
Scorchcake – mollusc-like creatures whose underside is covered in fire.
Titan Blowhog – massive Fiery Blowhogs whose fire breath has a larger range.
Fireflap Bulborb – flying creatures covered in fire.
Fiery Dwarf Bulblax – dwarf version of the Fiery Bulblax.
Firesnout Beetle – insects that shoot flames from their mouths.
Fiery Young Yellow Wollywog – Young Yellow Wollywogs covered in flames.

Scorch Guard[edit]
- Main article: Scorch Guard.
The Scorch Guard is a spacesuit upgrade in Pikmin 2, Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4. After it is collected, the playable leaders will gain immunity to all sorts of fire attacks, just like Red Pikmin. The exception is the Titan Dweevil's Flare Cannon, since it will stun leaders, even if it does not harm them.
Red Pikmin[edit]
- Main article: Red Pikmin.
Red Pikmin are resistant to fire, meaning they will not be affected by any flame and will act as if it does not exist. Bulbmin and Glow Pikmin also share this trait. This makes them quite valuable when fighting against fire-related enemies and overcoming fiery obstacles. Red Pikmin can also pick up fire starters to burn dried plants and light bonfires. They can also be used in combat against some enemies, such as melting the ice on a Frosty Bulborb's back.
In the Super Smash Bros. series[edit]
|
This article or section is a short summary on fire attacks. |
Some fighters in the Super Smash Bros. series have attacks that can set their opponents on fire. Olimar is one of them – when a Red Pikmin attacks an enemy, it burns them. Similarly to the Pikmin series, Red Pikmin can completely resist any attack with a fire property, by taking no damage and not flinching, although other Pikmin types do not take any extra damage from fire attacks.
Glitches[edit]
- Shifted heat haze: in New Play Control! Pikmin 2 exclusively, fires that aren't horizontally centered on the camera will have their heat haze effect shifted away from them.
- Drowning cutscene glitch: in Pikmin 3, if the drowning explanation cutscene plays while there is a trail of fire near the water, if the camera aligns correctly, the fire and water's depths will not be calculated correctly, and the water splashes will appear on top of the fire.
