Candypop family

In Pikmin 1, candypop buds are flowers. If you throw a pikmin into a candypop bud, they turn into the pikmin color that is the color of the flower (Red, Yellow, Blue) If you throw in about fifty or so Pikmin, they die.

In Pikmin 2, they are a lot like in Pikmin 1, but the colored ones die after 5 pikmin are thrown into them (Red, Yellow, Blue, Purple, White). They are the only way to obtain purple or white Pikmin. Also in Pikmin 2, there are Queen Candypop Buds: If one pikmin is thrown in 9 (you gain eight) red, yellow, or blue Pikmin (depending on when you throw them in) come out.

• Crimson Candypop Buds
