Hey! Pikmin
Stuff relating to Hey! Pikmin
Spark dandelion
The spark dandelion is a small tool that lights up when Yellow Pikmin are thrown at it. When activated, it will hold the Yellow Pikmin in place as it lights up an area around it, allowing for Bloominous Stemples to bloom. The spark dandelion will immediately be turned off once the Yellow Pikmin are whistled at.
The name comes from the Japanese Hey! Pikmin guidebook, where it was given the name スパークタンポポ? (lit.: "Spark dandelion").
Locations
- Ravaged Rustworks
- Space of Silence: The only spark dandelions in the game appear here. They are found in the room containing the Silence Breaker, where they act as electrical tools that the player has to use in order to activate nearby Bloominous Stemples and reach the treasure.

Quotes
| Requirement | Quote |
|---|---|
| Talk to Dash for the first time. |
“Wow... I've been drawn to caves for most of my life, but I haven't run into danger like this in a long time.”
“My life's quite precious to me... Thanks for helping. After all, I can only poke around in caves if I'm alive, right?”
“Oh, I should introduce myself... I'm Dash. I've explored all over the universe, thanks to my family's deep pockets.”
|
| Talk to Dash for the second time. |
“The captain warned me that she'd be very angry if I got stranded again, so I can't go explore any caves.”
“Oh, hey—I just had the best idea! Starting right now, I'm going to recognize you as my top... well, only... pupil!”
“I need you to explore the caves around this planet on my behalf. You'll have to make it through them all the way to the exits.”
|
| I'd like to start by seeing what kinds of skills you have. Make your way through 5 caves, and report back. | |
| I can't tell you how disappointed I am not to be able to do this myself, but I've got high hopes for your tenacity. | |
| Be very careful around the creatures here. You can't explore more caves for me if you don't make it safely back to the surface! | |
| Wow! I knew I saw promise in you. I'm a great judge of caving potential. Next, try making your way through 10 caves. | |
| You, my star pupil, are making great progress to support my life's work! | |
| There may be a lot of danger, but isn't that just part of the thrill of getting to explore caves?! | |
| You keep up an impressive pace when you explore! For your next target, how about... 15 caves? | |
| Listening to your reports after you explore each cave gets me itching to dive back underground myself. | |
| If you start to feel unsafe, go back to the surface for a while. Knowing when to quit is essential when you explore caves. | |
| You really seem to understand the true "spirit" of caves now! For your final effort, make your way through every cave! | |
| It sure does seem like this planet has a remarkable variety in its many caves. | |
| The caves here are full of mystery and adventure, with creatures and treasures that point to a fascinating culture! | |
| It seems I do have excellent judgment. You really are a top-notch pupil, both in name and reality! | |
| In recognition of your great achievements, I'd like to offer this phrase I keep in mind as parting words to you. "You can always find me in the pits!" I hope we get a chance to explore some caves together one day. | |
| You seem to be traveling through those caves at a good clip. Drop your latest report on me. | |
| I want to help you discover the "spirit" of caves. You should continue your endeavor to explore even more of them. | |
| What's this?! You've already completed your travels! Whoa! You're miles ahead of what I was expecting. | |
| My title of Cave Researcher feels even more mediocre in the face of your great achievements. You've done amazing work! | |
| I see you've already made your way through several caves. I would expect no less from my star pupil! | |
| Your attitude... the way you take on these caves so enthusiastically... It's like when I first discovered the underground world. | |
| About that "Industrial Maze" matter you reported... That sounded extremely interesting! The caves repeatedly show evidence of intelligent life-forms that evolved in an entirely different way from us. Machinery that keeps working forever, floors that float in the air... It sure does stir the imagination! | |
| When I heard your report about the Secluded Courtyard, I was moved by the beauty of the silence you described. White sand spread out with a pattern in it. Hard botanical cylinders arranged here and there. There even seems to be significance to how the flat rocks are lined up... These are traces of a civilization we don't know. | |
| Among the many caves you've been to, my sense of aesthetic is most drawn to the Seafloor Resort. The marine-blue water, the expansive sandy beach, the beautiful, strange, and sometimes dangerous aquatic creatures... The constant sound of flowing water must've been peaceful as well. | |
| The building-block clearing like out of a fairy tale, the pastel-colored floor that creates a tranquil and bright mood... Thriving giant mushrooms to jump and play on... It does feel dreamy, like the name Dream Home implies. It shows the playfulness possible when a culture matures... This cave really stokes one's inner adventurer and poet! | |
| The Mud Pit you reported on... a lake of poisonous mucus where spores and mycelia are interwoven. I'm so jealous that you got to explore that cave and get all sticky and mucky hiking through it! After all, the more hardship, the bigger the sense of accomplishment when you make it to the end! | |
| The caves here are full of mystery and adventure, with creatures and treasures that point to a fascinating culture! | |
| Talk to Dash while playing as Oatchi. | This is embarrassing to admit, but I've been stranded in caves countless times, only to be saved by Rescue Pups like you. |
| Talk to Dash while playing as Oatchi. | I live my life bouncing from adventure to adventure, so sadly I can't have a dog. |
| Talk to Dash while looking like him. | A few years ago, I was diving in a cave made of a mirror-like substance. Wherever I looked, I saw countless copies of myself. You and I look so much alike, it brought back memories from that eerie experience. |

The Bomb Rock (バクダン岩?, lit.: "Bomb rock"; formatted as bomb-rock prior to Pikmin 3) is an explosive rock found in the Pikmin games. Upon being activated, a Bomb Rock's fuse starts going down (represented by a colored wheel in the first two games), and when it reaches zero, the bomb causes a violent explosion, capable of damaging enemies, leaders, some obstacles and knocking back and subsequently killing any Pikmin.
How it works has changed, in some fashion, in every entry. In the first and third games, it can be carried by Pikmin, but only by Yellow Pikmin in the former. In Pikmin 2, is slightly larger and serve as an obstacle instead of a tool, with the exception of the 2-Player Battle stage Hostile Territory, where it can be picked up and thrown by leaders. It also appears as an item in 2-Player Battle and Bingo Battle. In Pikmin 4 it's instead an item used by leaders and can be either found in the field or bought from Russ for 8 raw materials per Bomb Rock after accumulating a total of 3000 Sparklium. In the side story Olimar's Shipwreck Tale, Bomb Rocks are similarly found scattered around the four areas, and Olimar gains additional Bomb Rocks as milestone bonuses for recovering 2 and then 13 ship parts.
