Analysis revealed that the essence obtained from the red berries of the "Burgeoning Spiderwort" plant, which was newly discovered during this expedition, is a surprisingly spicy substance. For the sweet-toothed Hocotatians, just one drop of this spicy essence is lethal, but when sprinkled on Pikmin, it turns out to be very exciting for them. Fortunately, there was an empty bottle among the unsold junk, so it was decided to diligently fill it. | |||

Ultra-spicy spray (ゲキカラスプレー?) is a red-colored spray that can be obtained by gathering ten ultra-spicy berries from a Burgeoning Spiderwort plant, finding a concentrated dose, or in Bingo Battle and Dandori Battles, as single-use items. In Pikmin 4, they can also be obtained by throwing a Pikmin at a Honeywisp or Iridescent Glint Beetle, or when defeating an enemy that is frozen. When used, any Pikmin in the party will become more efficient at their tasks, and in Pikmin 3 or Pikmin 4, bloomed into the flower stage as well.
Use[edit]
By pressing / / in Pikmin 2, / / (or by tapping the button on the Wii U GamePad in Stylus Mode) in Pikmin 3, or + in Pikmin 3 Deluxe, any Pikmin following the current leader's party, regardless of distance, will be powered up; Pikmin not in the party will not be affected. In Pikmin 4, all Pikmin on the field will be powered up, regardless of whether they are in the leader’s party, and Oatchi or Moss will also be affected. In Pikmin 2, affected Pikmin's leaf, bud, or flower will be replaced with a pink flashing light, similar to the one over Olimar's head. In Pikmin 3, and Pikmin 4 they will be instantly upgraded from a leaf or bud into a flower. Aesthetically, the affected Pikmin's flower has an orange glow, while their body glows pink.
Each Pikmin's maximum running speed becomes nearly as fast as flowered White Pikmin, and the affected Pikmin receive a general increase in task speed, which affects their attack frequency, their efficiency when taking down gates, constructing bridges, and recovering from enemy attacks. The effects wear off after 40 seconds in Pikmin 2, and 30 seconds in Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4, though they keep their newly-gained flower maturity.
While the spray's effect can be extremely useful in many situations, caution should be observed, as drowning Pikmin sprayed with an ultra-spicy spray will actually die more quickly than unsprayed Pikmin. In Pikmin 2, burning and suffocating Pikmin will also perish sooner, but in the sequel, burning spicy Pikmin last just as long as normal ones (although their death animation runs faster than normal). Finally, because the Pikmin's running speed is slightly less than a flower White Pikmin, spraying a group of flower White Pikmin will actually make them walk slightly slower.
Pikmin carrying objects have their attributes changed in a different way. In Pikmin 2, all the spray does is make the Pikmin behave as if they are flower Pikmin, meaning that spraying a group that is already all flowers is a complete waste. If the effects of the spray wear off while the Pikmin are carrying the object, they will continue carrying at the same speed as if they were powered up, until they deliver the object or drop it. This makes this exploit particularly useful when retrieving the Doomsday Apparatus, and can also be used to manipulate the treasure's carrying speed. In Pikmin 3, it sets the Pikmin to the same carrying speed as a standard-type flower Pikmin, meaning that White Pikmin actually become slower carriers. In this game, the previously mentioned exploit with the timer running out mid-carrying does not exist.
Technically, any Pikmin type's attack power is changed to 10 (in Pikmin 2 and Pikmin 3), and their attack and obstacle-clearing speed increases to around 180%. This means that Red Pikmin, Purple Pikmin, and Rock Pikmin experience a decrease in power, while Winged Pikmin, White Pikmin (in Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4), and Ice Pikmin get a boost in power. Still, the increase in speeds makes up for those power nerfs. To note however is that in Pikmin 2, a Pikmin that is attacking while grounded will not be sped up.
If the spray button is pressed while there are no Pikmin in the current leader's party, nothing will happen, and no spray will be deducted from the total. If Pikmin are told to go inside an Onion, they will lose their spicy status.
In all games, if the player sprays an already spicy Pikmin, the duration of the spray will be reset. Interestingly, if the player uses an ultra-bitter spray on a spicy Pikmin, it will also reset its spicy mode duration.[1] In Pikmin 2 exclusively, the first time in a saved game the player uses a spray will trigger a cutscene, but the spray duration timer for the Pikmin in the cutscene will continue to go down during it until the world is paused and the Ship's dialogue box appears.
Badges[edit]
In Pikmin 3 Deluxe, there is a badge the player can gain from using an ultra-spicy spray:
- Power Surge: Use a dose of Ultra-Spicy Spray.
