The following article or section is in need of assistance from someone who plays Pikmin 3. |
A nectar egg (known before Pikmin 3 as simply egg) is a white, semi-round object found in alcoves of caves, and on specific places aboveground. It is unknown if they come from any kind of creature or plant and it may be possible that they are merely egg-shaped containers. They can be attacked, and when broken, they release nectar, although they can also release other things. The eggs held by Honeywisps in Pikmin 2 function identically to grounded eggs.
To destroy an egg, it must be attacked with Pikmin, punched at a few times with a leader, or destroyed by an enemy projectile, like a Gatling Groink's fireworks.
For Pikmin 2, it is advisable to throw a Purple Pikmin onto an egg, as this will immediately break it and contained Mitites will be instantly defeated. It is also recommended to destroy an egg with a leader, as a Pikmin thrown at the egg may drink the nectar after being called back, wasting it.

To do: Discover what the chances are for when the player doesn't have a certain spray. |
In Pikmin 2, the contents of an egg are picked at random from a list, and they're only chosen on the exact moment the egg breaks, not when the egg is created (i.e. they're not chosen when the area or cave loads). Not every outcome has the same probability of happening, as detailed in the following table:
| Content | Probability |
|---|---|
| A single drop of nectar | 50% |
| Two drops of nectar | 35% |
| A drop of ultra-bitter spray | 5% |
| A drop of ultra-spicy spray | 5% |
| A group of ten Mitites | 5% |
In Pikmin 3, certain eggs are programmed to always drop certain objects. For example, some of the eggs in the hollowed-out tree in the Tropical Wilds where the Juicy Gaggle is found are pre-programmed to always drop bomb rocks – the only known ones to do so. Other than that, some eggs in Mission Mode always drop ultra-spicy spray. Most eggs in Story mode can drop either nectar or ultra-spicy spray. If ultra-spicy spray has not been discovered, they will only drop nectar, as ultra-bitter spray and Mitites are not present in this game.

Locations

This article is a stub. You can help Pikipedia by expanding it. |
There are no nectar eggs in the first game, but they can be found in many places in Pikmin 2 and Pikmin 3. Their location in areas is always constant, and they always respawn whenever the area is entered. Underground, there are several sublevels with eggs, some having more than one. Eggs that fall off the ceiling of caves will instantly break when they reach the ground.
The following is a list of the eggs' locations:
- Pikmin 2
- Valley of Repose
- A group of three, near the landing site.
- Perplexing Pool
- A group of two, between the Beady Long Legs and the original location of the Yellow Onion.
- A group of three, near the entrance to the Glutton's Kitchen.
- Wistful Wild
- A group of three, on the intersection between the two main parts closest to the landing site.
- A group of four, near the Anti-hiccup Fungus.
- A group of three, near the entrance to the Hole of Heroes.
- Pikmin 3
- Tropical Wilds
- A group of seven in the tree stump where the Medusal Slurker holding the Juicy Gaggle is found.
- A group of three in the secondary circular arena the Shaggy Long Legs is fought on.
- A group of three at the end of the meandering path with the Pyroclasmic Slooches.
- Garden of Hope
- Distant Tundra
- A group of eight in the Shaggy Long Legs arena, with one of them hidden under a Flukeweed.
- Twilight River
- A lone egg is hidden under a Flukeweed near the discovery location of the pink Onion.
- Formidable Oak
