What a mysterious life-form!|Captain Olimar|his [[Olimar's voyage log|voyage log]]}} Flower Pikmin are the fastest, and move twice as fast as leaf Pikmin (for all types except Purple Pikmin and White Pikmin). They grow a five-petaled flower atop their stems. In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', flower Pikmin that die in battle have a chance of leaving behind a sprout that appears the following [[day]]. The color of a Pikmin's flower is the same as the color of its bud. | ||
In ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', a flower Pikmin twirls horizontally in the air after it reaches the apex of its [[throw]] arc. When it does this, it falls down slightly slower than leaf or bud Pikmin. This twirl also makes the Pikmin lose some horizontal momentum, which makes leaf and bud Pikmin fall farther in a throw than flower Pikmin. In the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' versions, flower Pikmin stop somersaulting in the apex and fall down straight, resulting in them landing at the same time and in the same position as leaf or bud Pikmin. Purple Pikmin do not have any sort of horizontal twirl in any game, since they pound after the apex. | In ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', a flower Pikmin twirls horizontally in the air after it reaches the apex of its [[throw]] arc.
