Violet Candypop Buds are purple Candypop Buds that when non-purple Pikmin are thrown in, they will change into Purple Pikmin. If Purple Pikmin are thrown in, they will be reverted to leaf stages, and don't count against the 5 Pikmin limit per Candypop Bud. This Candypop Bud is new to Pikmin in Pikmin 2. You may find 3 Violet Candypop Buds on Sublevel 8 of the Subterranean Complex (Valley of Repose) if you need more. There are also 3 in the Hole of Beasts. However, 2 of these disappear after a certain amount of Purples is reached. They are the only way to get Purple Pikmin.
