A Yellow Pikmin digging a tunnel.
For the pathway that connects two doorways in Hey! Pikmin, see doorway.

A tunnel is a type of obstacle in Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4. Some walls have tunnels in them which serve as shortcuts between two parts of an area, but when these walls are first found, they are covered in pebbles and dirt. Pikmin must be ordered to open the tunnel, where they will slowly begin cleaning up the clutter. The tunnel cannot be entered until all the gravel has been removed. Tunnels may not be used to allow passage to Pikmin carrying large objects in Pikmin 3, but can do so in Pikmin 4.

Digging speeds

Main article: Dig#Digging speeds.

There are two phases for digging a tunnel in Pikmin 3. The first phase consists in digging the entrance to the tunnel, and the second one consists in digging inside the tunnel. During the first phase, different Pikmin types will dig at different speeds, whereas in the second one, every Pikmin will dig at the same speed. The following table lists relative digging speeds, based on the most "normal" Pikmin type, the Blue Pikmin.

Type Pikmin 3
Red Pikmin 1.5×
Rock Pikmin 2.0×
Yellow Pikmin 1.0×
Winged Pikmin 0.5×
Blue Pikmin 1.0×
Purple Pikmin 1.5×
White Pikmin 0.5×

These digging speeds are exactly the same as each Pikmin type's relative attack power. It's possible to see that Yellow Pikmin are not given any speed improvement, compared to when they are digging a buried fruit.

Narrow tunnel

Narrow tunnels are a variant of tunnels in Pikmin 4 that are smaller in diameter than regular tunnels. Due to their size, Oatchi is unable to go through them, but the player character and Pikmin are.

Pup tunnel

Pup tunnels are a variant of tunnels in Pikmin 4 that have a metal door. Only Oatchi may travel through a pup tunnel, and he will instantly disband all Pikmin in his squad upon entering. Oatchi will have an animation for squeezing through the pipe, during which switching leader is impossible, before he appears on a higher ledge.
