Besides the main Pikmin games, Pikmin and elements of Pikmin have appeared in other games:
If none of your Pikmin die in the Pikmin games and you beat it nothing happens other than beating the game.

Red Pikmin are arguably the simplest Pikmin, in both form and function. They have high attack power and can withstand fire, whereas the other types of Pikmin look stranger and have a wider variety of uses. Also, you do not come into fire hazards early in either game, which means the more common electric and water hazards block a larger area of the world. Lastly, white and purple Pikmin could not be the first Pikmin you get in Pikmin 2 because they can only be created in caverns you need Pikmin to enter in the first place.
