The names for all obstacles described in this article are unofficial.

To do: Document the timings for how long each type of hazard generator spends on and off, and also the warning they give before turning on.
Care todo so?

Hazard generators areobstacles in thePikmin games that periodically emit ahazard. Their functionality varies by game and by hazard, but they are all located on the ground in specific locations ofareas orcaves. Using the right type of Pikmin that are resistant to the hazard, or destroying the obstacle to make it stop emitting the hazard (where possible), are necessary to safely transport items over them.

Fire geyser[edit]

A fire geyser near Olimar inPikmin 2.

Fire geysers spit out a column offire at regular intervals. InPikmin andPikmin 3, they are impossible to destroy, while inPikmin 2 andPikmin 4, they can be attacked and destroyed with Pikmin. Any Pikmin type can attack a fire geyser when it's not burning, but only fire-resistant types can attack one when it is. InPikmin, they deal a lot of damage to Olimar, which makes them quite a dangerous obstacle. InPikmin 3, fire geysers are not visible when not spitting fire, and inPikmin 4, their effect has a larger radius than in any other game, with fire sent out in all directions rather than just vertically.Hey! Pikmin also has fire geysers in theOrdeal of Flame area, which are very large and indestructible, and can be found on ceilings as well as floors.

Particularly: Add numbers.

Water spout[edit]

Water spouts periodically send out a column ofwater. This water is hazardous to types not resistant to it, unlike the water ingeysers in the first 3 games, which is in a more turbulent form and helps leaders reach higher places. These obstacles only appear inPikmin 4, where helpful geysers instead use air. The water shoots into the air in a vertical column, then falls around it in a small radius and disappears, and this radius around the spout (which is darker than the surrounding area of floor) is the hazardous range when the spout is sending out water. Any Pikmin type can damage a water spout when it is not sending out water.

Electricity generator[edit]

Electricity generators periodically discharge large sparks ofelectricity around them. They appear inPikmin 4 only, though similar obstacles exist inPikmin 2 andPikmin 3 aselectrical wires andelectrodes respectively. The electricity is emitted in a fairly wide radius around the obstacle, which is a small metal object with 3 rods pointing into the air, and will stun and eventually kill Pikmin who are not resistant to it. They can be attacked by any Pikmin type when not emitting electricity, and can only be attacked byYellow Pikmin (orGlow Pikmin) when they are emitting electricity.

Locations[edit]

Pikmin 4

Serene Shores (does not appear above ground)
- Engulfed Castle
  - Sublevel 3 × 6

Poison emitter[edit]

Poison emitters emitpoison in a gaseous form. These are unique among hazard generators in that they emit their hazard continuously, rather than turning on and off periodically. This means that onlyWhite Pikmin (plusBulbmin andGlow Pikmin) can destroy them or go through them before they are destroyed. InPikmin 2, these obstacles take the appearance of orange pipes emitting red-purple poison gas, and are commonly found insidebridges orbramble gates, which means that only White Pikmin can build these bridges or destroy these gates before they can destroy the poison emitter. The pipe stays around even after being destroyed, but no longer emits poison. InPikmin 4, they look like brown rock-like structures with holes emitting turquoise poison gas, and are only found standalone.

Ice vent[edit]

Ice vents produceicy air that freezes Pikmin around it. (This is not the same ascold air.) They look like shards of ice sticking out from the ground, and appear inPikmin 4 only. OnlyIce Pikmin (andGlow Pikmin) can destroy these when they're producing icy air, but any type can destroy them when they're not.

Bubble blower[edit]

Bubble blowers occasionally produce a large number ofbubbles in various directions, which can trap Pikmin for a period of time until they pop. Ice Pikmin and Purple Pikmin are "immune" to this hazard, as the former freezes them and the latter pops them due to their weight, making both types fall out almost instantaneously. The bubbles can be popped by throwing Pikmin at them as they come out, but this still leaves a risk of Pikmin getting caught by the bubbles. They can be attacked by any Pikmin type and cannot kill Pikmin, unless the bubble pops while over a hazard that the Pikmin is not resistant to. They only appear inPikmin 4.

Trivia[edit]

Fire geysers can awaken sleeping enemies, such asRed Bulborbs orFiery Bulblaxes. This can be observed in sublevel 5 of theDream Den.
Fire geysers can bepunched by leaders inPikmin 3, even though it does nothing.
Poison emitters in overground areas inPikmin 2 will respawn 99days after being deactivated.
InPikmin 2, poison emitters have still-working but unseen logic, coupled with unique parameters, of pausing and turning off and on, much like fire geysers and electric wires. However, the time for its paused state is set to 0, making this feature go unseen in the vanilla game. Additionally, the time for its "on" state is set to 3 seconds, unique from the other hazards' 2 seconds. The feature can be modded back in again via simple parameter changes.
