The health of leaders is represented on the bottom-left corner of the screen. It differs slightly from normal health wheels in that it lacks a black circle behind the main pie chart, and it beeps whenever it's below 50%.

Enemy attacks, hazards, and other sources of damage generally deplete a leader's health, which can eventually lead to the leader being KO'd, but getting hit by an attack will also temporarily place them in a state where they cannot be controlled by the player, meaning it's harder to take them or their Pikmin out of harm's way. | Enemy attacks, hazards, and other sources of damage generally deplete a leader's health, which can eventually lead to the leader being KO'd, but getting hit by an attack will also temporarily place them in a state where they cannot be controlled by the player, meaning it's harder to take them or their Pikmin out of harm's way. | ||

In {{p2}} and {{p3}}, if a leader loses all their health, they will be transported back to the landing area, and the other leaders will continue on their own. If every leader loses all their health, the day ends, as it does when Olimar falls in ''Pikmin''. The same rule applies to caves in ''Pikmin 2'', but the cave is immediately left, all salvaged treasures are lost, all Pikmin in the cave are left behind, and hence, count as deaths, and the day is instantly over afterwards. If only one leader is knocked out inside a cave, he will be lying prostrate in front of the ship even after leaving the cave. This cannot be changed unless the day ends or is reset. The only way to heal the health of a leader that is not knocked out is to enter or leave a cave. In [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], [[Mission Mode]] and the [[Side Stories]], if any leader is defeated, the challenge or mission is over. In [[2-Player Battle]] and [[Bingo Battle]], if a player's leader faints, the other player wins. | In {{p2}} and {{p3}}, if a leader loses all their health, they will be transported back to the landing area, and the other leaders will continue on their own.

In {{p4}}, if a leader loses all their health, they will be teleported to the [[S.S. Beagle]] and slowly regain health. The remaining leader can stop the health regeneration process and wake them up by pressing A nearby the downed leader. If both leaders are down, or if the [[rookie Rescue Officer]] is down before [[Oatchi]] grows, Or Olimar is down before finding [[Moss]]; the game offers the player to rewind. If they decline, the day ends, and Pikmin outside of the Onion's radius are left behind. | |||
There are two minor glitches in ''Pikmin 2'' related to a leader losing all of his health: [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Ghost leader|one glitch]] has the fallen leader able to be hurt, while [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Unbeamable leader|another one]] allows the leader to remain on the ground instead of being beamed up by the Research Pod. | There are two minor glitches in ''Pikmin 2'' related to a leader losing all of his health: [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Ghost leader|one glitch]] has the fallen leader able to be hurt, while [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Unbeamable leader|another one]] allows the leader to remain on the ground instead of being beamed up by the Research Pod. |
