*{{iw|pikipedia|Rock Pikmin}} - Unlike other Pikmin, Rock Pikmin are shaped like irregular hunks of rock instead of having smooth, humanoid bodies. Their hardness gives them the highest attack power when thrown, allows them to crack crystalline objects when thrown, and renders them immune to being crushed and impaled. Despite being the bulkiest Pikmin, they are actually tied with Yellow Pikmin for the fastest digging speed. However, they are unable to latch onto enemies, and instead choose to repeatedly ram into them. Their arms, legs and stem are colored gray, while their bud and flower are colored lavender. | *{{iw|pikipedia|Rock Pikmin}} - Unlike other Pikmin, Rock Pikmin are shaped like irregular hunks of rock instead of having smooth, humanoid bodies.

*{{iw|pikipedia|Winged Pikmin}} - Winged Pikmin are pink and have both insectoid wings and large, blue eyes. Their wings allow them to fly over hazardous terrain and ground-based attacks, as well as uproot certain plants from the ground and lift obstacles. They can also give easy chase to airborne enemies, but are tied with White Pikmin for the lowest attack power and digging speed. Like Rock Pikmin, their bud and flower are colored lavender. | *{{iw|pikipedia|Winged Pikmin}} - Winged Pikmin are pink and have both insectoid wings and large, blue eyes.

*{{iw|pikipedia|Ice Pikmin}} - Ice Pikmin appear similar to Rock Pikmin, with bodies made of irregular chunks of ice. They can freeze enemies by attacking or being eaten by them; defeating a frozen enemy will shatter it and leave behind a drop of {{iw|pikipedia|nectar}}. Throwing them into a body of water will also cause it to freeze over, allowing other types of Pikmin to cross safely, but they become embedded in the ice and cannot be used until they are retrieved, which will also thaw the ice. They have yellow-colored buds and flowers. | |||
*{{iw|pikipedia|Glow Pikmin}} - A special species of Pikmin with glowing bodies and ghost-like tails instead of legs, Glow Pikmin are only usable in caves or during {{iw|pikipedia|night expeditions}}, and are the only type of Pikmin available in the latter. They are cultivated in {{iw|pikipedia|Lumiknolls}} instead of {{iw|pikipedia|Onion}}s or {{iw|pikipedia|Candypop Bud}}s like other Pikmin, are immune to all elemental hazards, and can be charged up to coalesce into a large ball of energy that stuns enemies when thrown. Like Ice Pikmin, their bud and flower are colored yellow. | |||
The plant on an individual Pikmin's head indicates [[pikipedia:Maturity|how developed it is]]. A fully bloomed flower means a Pikmin is faster and more efficient at carrying objects than a Pikmin with just a leaf on its head. Pikmin develop from leaves into buds and then into flowers if left buried long enough absorbing nutrients from the soil; if a Pikmin drinks nectar, its leaf or bud will immediately develop into a flower. Pikmin can lose their flower and have it turned back into a leaf, either by enemy attacks that knock them down or by falling from a high place while carrying an object, among other things. In ''Pikmin 3,'' Pikmin can't lose their flower. | The plant on an individual Pikmin's head indicates [[pikipedia:Maturity|how developed it is]].
