This unknown Pikmin species is a new type of Pikmin featured in the trailer for Pikmin 3. They were only seen during Nintendo's E3 2012 press conference. They are pink in coloration, have slightly more round heads, appear to have large blue eyes, and have small clear wings. Much like the Rock Pikmin, they have lavender flowers on their stalks. Two of them can be seen faintly at the very start in the backround along with 3 Red Pikmin. The trailer shows them much closer as they fly by the logo. Not much is known about them at this point, but they can fly using their small wings. Due to being present only in the trailer, it is assumed that these unknown Pikmin and their gameplay uses will be officially revealed at a later date.

A woman at the E3 showfloor was providing information on Pikmin 3, and was confronted about the pink colored Pikmin. She stated that she was not permitted to confirm or deny their appearance in the game, but that there will be more new Pikmin other than the Rock Pikmin, which will be announced and shown at a later date.

On August 1st 2012, the Official Nintendo Magizine released their 65th issue, which contained info on Pikmin 3's trial map as well as new artwork. One of the artworks shown was of the flying pink Pikmin.

Trivia

• In the Good Ending of the original Pikmin game, several multi-colored onions were seen flying high up in the planet's atmosphere. Interestingly, five of these onions were pink.
