Ghost candypop buds are plants in Pikmin 4:Pikmin Adventure. If Pikmin are tossed in it, they are reproduced as Black Pikmin (Pikmin 4). Strangely, when pikmin are tossed in they aren't really reproduced. It seems that tossing a pikmin at the bud will trigger it into making black pikmin. E.G.: You toss 1 yellow pikmin in the bud. The bud spits out a black pikmin seed, but you still have your yellow pikmin.
