This page doesn't explain why it calls them "gray" candypop buds, when the official guide calls them "Black". 24.177.122.233 23:40, July 3, 2023 (EDT)
Official name
Olimar's Piklopedia notes for Rock Pikmin in Pikmin 4 names it the "Rock Candypop Bud." "Rock" is capitalized. Presumably this would also extend to Winged, Ice Candypop Bud. --GopyXP (talk) 04:14, July 25, 2023 (EDT)
candypop bud names are a whole thing in Pikmin 4. They've been merged into one species, for a start. The game appears to refer to them by "[pikmin type] Candypop Bud" consistently now instead of having "crimson candypop bud" or whatever. We should discuss this further on the talk page of Candypop Bud. Supremekirbo (talk) 06:25, July 25, 2023 (EDT)
