When multiple Onions are discovered, they fuse together to become an even larger universal Onion that swirls different colors, depending on the type of Pikmin it holds. When all five Pikmin types in the game are discovered, the Onion swells up into a more traditional Onion-like shape.

Some of the new Onions also clearly display their [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] type's characteristic element upon activation: the yellow Onion creates a small burst of electricity, the blue Onion drains out a large amount of water, and the pink Onion's flower flutters erratically. The red Onion shoots out some brown particles, which might be flames, but might also be dirt lifting from the ground. The gray Onion lacks any notable reveal gimmick.

The blue Onion houses [[Blue Pikmin]], and is the last type to be discovered in all three games. In ''Pikmin'', the blue Onion can be found in [[The Forest Navel]] in a pool near the landing site. Several blue [[Pellet Posies]] are in the immediate vicinity, as well as a free-standing blue 5 [[pellet]]. In ''Pikmin 2'', the Blue Onion is located in the [[Awakening Wood]]; although it can be seen relatively early in the game, it lies behind an electric [[gate]], meaning that [[Yellow Pikmin]] from the [[Perplexing Pool]] are required to access it. A small pool blocks the only direct path up to the gate, so the Pikmin must be thrown onto a nearby ledge (while taking care not to disturb the [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]] lying in wait there). The [[Captain]] can then walk around through some water to reach them, and order them to defeat the beast and demolish the gate, allowing him to find the game's first five Blue Pikmin. In ''Pikmin 3'', the blue Onion is located in a pool at the [[Garden of Hope]] and can only be accessed after defeating the Scornet Maestro at [[Twilight River]].

For some unknown reason, when landing on an area in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', the Blue Onion seems to hover a bit before landing, therefore landing after the red and yellow Onions.
