Hiding is a mechanic in Pikmin 3. Leaders and their Pikmin can hide from predatory life by crouching under specific plants. When a leader walks under a suitable plant, all Pikmin and leaders in their crew will gather close and crouch – Winged Pikmin will also lower their altitude to fit under the plant's covers. In this state, they are invisible to certain enemies. If one of the deceivable enemies was chasing newly-hidden prey, it will look around in confusion and head back, allowing the Pikmin a chance to counterattack. While hiding, the music also quiets down.
Although not quite a form of hiding, leaders and Pikmin may stand under a Common Glowcap's shower of light to evade Phosbat and Vehemoth Phosbat attacks.
