Yet another Super Smash Bros. Ultimate glitch has been doing the rounds online in which players can transform the size of their Pikmin, making them the devilish monsters we always suspected they might be.
Shared recently on Twitter by @kangroo221, and seemingly originally found a few weeks ago by @DBlank20xx, the glitch can only be performed under very particular circumstances. The Pikmin only grow to their new-found full potential when in the presence of the Mother Brain assist trophy, as seen below; the Smash Bros. series already makes them much larger than their usual 1cm size, so this extra growth is pretty crazy.
You can try this out for yourself at home if you're interested; simply set up a scenario where one player uses a Mother Brain assist trophy (the Training options will be best for this) and have a second player control Captain Olimar. As the Mother Brain grows, fling your Pikmin directly on to her and watch them grow accordingly. You can see it in action in this video from the folks over at GameXplain.
There have been plenty of glitches discovered in the game so far, often with hilarious results. If you missed them previously, make sure to check out the Isabelle and Villager game breaker, the infinite Waluigi glitch, and this compilation video.
Have you stumbled across anything weird and wonderful in Smash Ultimate? Let us know down below.

Attack On Titan theme starts playing
If Pikmin at normal size were as strong as ants, we would all be dead by now.
Bigmin, you won't pick on this min
I love silly glitches like this. I hope they’re never patched out.
this is nuts.
i can't decide if i like the Isabelle glitch or this glitch better.
Isn't that literally what Mother Brain does though, cultivate dangerous life forms?
Awesome and bigley. If you thought a Metroid latching on to you was bad, holy moly those Pikmin. Thank goodness Samus didn't have to deal during her exploits of Zebes lol

The tables have turned! Now even a single Pikmin is a force to be reckoned with!
Yep, Pikmin is a "big" series for sure
I kind of want a game where you rampage through a tiny city as a massive Pikmin now.
aww for a split second then when i saw the red pikmin on the main page i thought Pikmin 4 had finally been revealed........the wait continues lol
This is what Nintendo gets for not debugging to the point the release got pushed back a little: giant Pikmin, & infinite Waluigis.
It's just a teaser for Pikmin: Infinite Warfare.
That’s fun! ...No need to buff that out. - The logic could just be that they grow within the energy field that Mother Brain is growing and then immediately shrink back once they disconnect with her.
@NEStalgia this is incorrect. my uncle told me that it's Super Pikmin Bros U with Funky Mode DLC. and will be published by Activision. and each Pikmin are $5 each.
I wait until lighting strikes than I will shout "It's Alive" and laugh like frankenstien lol. Just before i do this of course.
OLI-MOLEY!!
That's the stuff of nightmares!
😂
Cool glitch but could you imagine if they stayed big when detached. Then you could do the process over again and watch then grow even bigger.
Look at me, I'm fantasizing about glitches now.
@BMO_Advanced
they be Thiccmin
@AxeltheBuizel Whomever downvoted you is lacking in the humor department lol
This is fantastic
Pretty nice find.
