'''Leaflings''' ({{j|葉っぱ人|Happa Jin|Leaf | '''Leaflings''' ({{j|葉っぱ人|Happa Jin|Leaf Person}}) are characters in {{p4}} that cannot be identified because their heads are entirely covered by leaves. Their ID badges are unreadable due to corrupted biometric data, listing their name as "???" or "Error" and their home planet as [[PNF-404]]. They can be found in [[Dandori Challenge]]s, [[Dandori Battle]]s, and a few [[cave]]s, and can be converted back into regular characters by curing them with [[glow sap]]. | ||
The biology of leaflings is unknown. [[#Leafling Olimar|Olimar as a leafling]] can be seen kidnapping a [[castaway]], dragging it into an [[Onion]], and making it pop out as a leafling. He justifies this by saying that those that do not embrace [[dandori]] cannot survive in the planet, but they thrive instead if they have the leaves. This process is how leaflings are made. [[Dandori Challenge]]s and most [[Dandori Battle]]s are run by characters that are themselves leaflings. In this state, leafling characters are unable to speak in normal sentences, instead using simple words and small sentences at a time, and are obsessed with dandori. They will hand over the leafling castaways they have, or fall unconscious so they can be rescued themselves, if they witness a good display of dandori in their challenges or battles. Like normal castaways, they [[weight|weigh]] 3 units when [[carry|carried]], with a maximum carrier count of 6. [[Glow sap]] from a [[Lumiknoll]] can be made into medicine by Yonny that dissolves the leaves, reverting the leaflings to their normal state. | The biology of leaflings is unknown.

Following his curing, Olimar believes that leaflings may have had Pikmin DNA incorporated into their bodies after being taken into an [[Onion]], triggering their physical and psychological changes and causing them to rapidly sicken if they try to leave [[PNF-404]]. Although he does not know what purpose this "Pikmin-ification' might have, he speculates that the Pikmin may be trying to create a permanent [[leader]] for themselves. | Following his curing, Olimar believes that leaflings may have had Pikmin DNA incorporated into their bodies after being taken into an [[Onion]], triggering their physical and psychological changes and causing them to rapidly sicken if they try to leave [[PNF-404]].

The cave leaflings are found in specific sublevels of caves, and are rescued in the same way as castaways, by carrying them to the S.S. Beagle on the sublevel. | The cave leaflings are found in specific sublevels of caves, and are rescued in the same way as castaways, by carrying them to the S.S. Beagle on the sublevel. | ||
After a leafling is rescued, it will lie with other rescued leaflings in the [[Rescue Command Post]], near to where [[Yonny]] stands. There are specific spots that leaflings can lie in, and these spots are filled in the order leaflings are rescued. When a leafling is cured, all the leaflings in later spots will move to the previous spot. | |||

* The concept of Olimar being turned into a Pikmin-like creature was introduced in the "bad" ending of the first ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', in which the Pikmin carry an unconscious Olimar to the Red Onion, which absorbs him and releases an Olimar head-shaped Pikmin seed.
