Different Pikmin have different strengths and weaknesses in the Pikmin 3 Deluxe game. In order to overcome obstacles and defeat creatures on an alien planet, you’ll need to figure out which Pikmin are needed for which jobs!

 

Red Pikmin

These feisty Pikmin are fire resistant, loyal, and ferocious. Red Pikmin make a strong first line of attack when it comes to battling creatures.

 

Blue Pikmin

Blue Pikmin can thrive both on land and in the water. You can fling them into action whenever you need assistance in aquatic areas, like transporting treasure or fighting a creature. 

 

Yellow Pikmin

Electricity-loving Pikmin that are shockingly great at smashing electrified gates or directing currents. They get great air when thrown and are also champion diggers.

 

Rock Pikmin

Heavy and unbreakable, Rock Pikmin can be thrown to smash crystals. They can also stand firm when the larger creatures trample down.

 

Winged Pikmin

These high-flying Pikmin can carry things over water and lift obstructions. Winged Pikmin aren’t the strongest of the bunch, but they can make for flying aces against airborne creatures.
