If timed correctly, they can be stuck in these moments longer than normal. Ice Pikmin are also useful as a backup in case an enemy ends up eating a lot of Pikmin. In that case, the enemy will be frozen, and the player will have a chance to either destroy the enemy or flee the battle. [[White Pikmin]] can also be used for a similar purpose, though they deal damage to the enemy rather than temporarily freezing it. | ||

{{transcript|Ice Pikmin belong to the parasitic Pikmin subtype called "Hermikmin." They acquire and maintain their bodies with a process that utilizes their low-temperature cores to constantly generate fresh ice from ambient moisture. | |||
Freezing Properties | |||
:Ice Pikmin freeze their prey by slamming against them with their frozen bodies. Ice Pikmin are buoyant in water and will float on the surface→ If enough gather, it is possible for them to freeze bodies of water | |||
Cold Immunity | |||
:Ice Pikmin are immune to cold temperatures and cannot be frozen. However, they are very vulnerable to fire and melt quickly. This means that when burnt, they will expire much faster than other Pikmin.|block=y}} | |||
