In {{p4}}, mud is an environmental hazard seen only in the [[Primordial Thicket]] and the Piklopedia. With the Primordial Thicket being both above and below ground. Similar to water, it can inhabit large pools and be frozen with [[Ice Pikmin]] or [[Ice Blast]]s. Unlike water, leaders and [[Blue Pikmin]] are not naturally immune to it. Shallow mud can be traversed by all Pikmin types and leaders, with the only side effect being a reduced movement speed. The [[Gunk Busters]] upgrade allows leaders to walk through shallow mud unhindered.

Deep mud will cause leaders and non-Glow Pikmin to drown, but (like water) can still be whistled back to shore before they fully submerge and die. Ice Pikmin can float on top of deep mud, unless in a panicked state or shot with mud, in which they will drown like normal Pikmin. [[Winged Pikmin]] will always fly above it.

The [[Muckerskate]] can also use mud as a projectile, and [[Bogswallow]]s (while not directly using mud) are always submerged in it unless trying to inhale nearby prey.

While only seen in the Primordial Thicket in the main story mode, the [[Ice-Cross Course]] [[Dandori Challenge]] contains a pool of shallow mud in the center (which the [[leafling]] recommends freezing with Ice Pikmin) and puddles of shallow mud are present in the [[Blossoming Arcadia]] where some water would be in the [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]] version of the area.
Aside from being seen in the Primordial Thicket, the [[Ice-Cross Course]] [[Dandori Challenge]] contains a pool of shallow mud in the center which the [[leafling]] recommends freezing with Ice Pikmin. Shallow mud is present in the [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]] version of the [[Blossoming Arcadia]], in parts of the area where there would be water in the main story.
