Bridge
Bridges are common obstacles in the Pikmin series. Naturally, their purpose is to help cross a gap, normally a body of water. Pikmin are tasked with building the bridge, which cannot be crossed until it is completed. Their appearance and building method depends on the game.
In Pikmin and Pikmin 2, bridges are found as a pile of wood on one side of the gap, which Pikmin can be set to work on. Doing so will cause them to construct the wood into a bridge that goes over the obstruction.
In Pikmin 3 and Hey! Pikmin, bridges are made of fragments of various objects, rather than wood, as in the previous games. These fragments are mostly of ceramic objects, but can also be shards from objects such as glasses. Bridges are made from varying numbers of fragments (in Pikmin 3, the shortest is 30, and the longest is 84), and come in several different colors, with some bridges already being partially or fully completed by the time they're encountered.
