White Pikmin
Pikminicus niveus
White Pikmin are the second secondary Pikmin that you get in Pikmin 2. You find them first in the White Flower Garden. They are smaller than other Pikmin and they have red eyes devoid of pupils, but this gives the Pikmin to sense treasures completely buried underground. They are the fastest of all Pikmin, and they are the only Pikmin, when flowered, to be able to follow you when you have the Rush Boots. They also carry objects the fastest and the only pikmin that have red eyes. These Pikmin are immune to poison since they contain poisonous substance in their bodies, and can destroy poison pipes, and walk through poisonous emmisions. They also when eaten release their toxic secretions and deal heavy damage to their predator. Many Ivory Candypop Buds are found in the White Flower Garden on Sublevel 3 when you have already 15 or less whites, and on Sublevel 4 of the Subterranean Complex. These Pikmin are useful in carrying treasures, especially if you want to do so quickly.
