Pikmin

You are supposed to lay down near the Pikmin, and the Pikmin will carry you to their Onion and you will be lifted up into it (you will not go into the onion) and you fall back down then on top of the onion you will see fireworks. This only works if you obtain the item that allows you to lay down. There are no harmful or meaningful effects of the fireworks.

The Onions protect them from the predators on their planet while they sleep. As you can see each night, the Onions fly above the surface of the planet.

You need to collect five ship parts in the Forest of Hope to unlock the forest navel.

You have to have the first 29 parts to get the very last one, which is at The Final Trial.

First, get some blue Pikmin and take them to the bridge in the water. Start building it. Then take three yellow Pikmin and throw them onto the land to your right. Lead them up onto the big rock and throw them onto the ledge. Make Olimar go up the thing below that squirts you up to that area. Throw the yellow Pikmin up at the bombs and have each one take one. Be careful, as those are the only bombs you can get for now. Throw them all back down and set them off to the side.

Then take out ten red Pikmin. Throw them all onto the long path with the fire on it. Then take Olimar to the right of the long path, so he's in the water. Call the Pikmin. They will try to follow you, but since there is a wall they'll just run into it. Lead them down the path with the c stick until they get to the box. Press X and they'll start pushing it. Ignore them for now.

Go back to the blue Pikmin building the bridge. They will most likely be done. Use the yellow Pikmin with their bombs to blast down the wall. Start working on the next bridge.

When they are done, take all the Pikmin and start knocking down the last wall. The boss (Emperor Bulblax) will be there. You can wait until the next day if you're about the run out of time.

When you're ready to fight him, take out a lot of red Pikmin. About 50 will work. Go in and wake him up and start throwing them onto his cheeks. Watch out for his tongue.

Another way to fight him (which isn't recommended) destroy the wall behind him and there will be lots of bombs. Use yellow Pikmin to pick them up. He can eat them and get hurt a lot. Unfortunately, that way takes a lot of time. You should probably just keep throwing them on his cheeks, and if they all die, get more.

Most football games; golf; Grapple-ball, lawn bowls, ten-pin bowling, wall handball games [includes 'rebound handball'], squash and racquetball [if you don't include the hitting implement itself], cricket, baseball and many, many Asian and Latin American games. Any number of ball games do not use nets.

You have to leave Pikmin idle by a Puffstool and call them at the exact moment they are hit by the Puffstool's spores. This requires perfect timing. Be careful, as Mushroom Pikmin will attack any other kinds of Pikmin.

More purple and white Pikmin can always be gotten by throwing Pikmin into Ivory and Violet Candypop Buds, respectively. For the colors of Pikmin that have Onions, a single seed of that color will pop out at the beginning of the next day after what is called a "Pikmin Extinction".

It depends on your skill level. The Pikmin series can be quite challenging (especially the first game, which had a time limit on how long you could spend on the planet). For an advanced gamer, Pikmin will be a challenge but ultimately not impossible. For a beginner, Pikmin will probably be fairly challenging. A gamer who plays every now and then will find it a fun game to play and a challenging one at that.

Amazon.com has them in all varieties: leaf, bud, and flower. Reasonably priced as well. That's where I purchased mine.

No. Pikmin can only be played on the GameCube or Wii.

Two ways:

1) Get all other 29 pieces and then it will become available.

2) Use action replay to get all areas.

No, there isn't, but you can make a design for one if you wish.

In Animal Crossing: City Folk for Wii, you can buy Pikmin headgear at Sable and Able's.

When you are playing as Olimar, use his special (Button B) to pluck pikmin. Remember that you must be standing on something to pluck pikmin and that there is a limit to how many you can control.

Olimar does not actually speak throughout the game. He does occasionally yawn or show shock, but he does not talk.

Although it's an unconfirmed pikmin, it will most likely to be nature

The easiest way to get white and purple Pikmin is to go into easy caves, find the Candypop Buds and transform Pikmin, then get out. Keep in mind that Candypop Buds do not reappear in the same day after leaving a cavern.

Emergence Cave in the Valley of Repose is best for purple Pikmin, and the White Flower Garden in the Awakening Wood is best for whites. Relatively easy caverns that can be used to get white and purple Pikmin are the Snagret Hole in the Valley of Repose and the Citadel of Spiders in the Perplexing Pool.

The original Pikmin involves you hunting for 30 pieces of your ship within a limit of 30 days, with each day being 11 minutes real time. Thus, you have a time limit which makes the game more stressful than usual. If you like a challenge by getting items before time is up, then this game is for you. However, because you only have 30 days, the game will not last that long.

Pikmin 2, however, involves you searching for treasure (and even dead bodies of creatures you defeat) in order to pay back the 10,000 Pokos that led the company of Hocotate Freight into debt. Once your debt is paid, you can gather the remaining treasures, and after that you can still raise Pikmin. You have unlimited days to complete all of the tasks, which means some days can be spent just getting more Pikmin while others may involve completing two caves. Not only is there a challenge mode, but there is also a two-player mode to go along with the adventure mode. Most people select Pikmin 2 as the clearly better game, simply because it adds a two-player mode, a challenge mode, and a very intense and thorough story mode that you can accomplish at your own leisure.

Mushroom Pikmin are Pikmin that have been transformed by the spores of a creature called a Puffstool. Affected Pikmin turn purple and try to attack Olimar and normal Pikmin. This effect wears off after a while.

In the first game, the yellow Onion is in the second area, the Forest of Hope. Take enough Red Pikmin to defeat the Bulborb north of where you start out. Then, knock down the wall and kill the Bulborbs, dismiss the red Pikmin, and go north. You should see a darkish yellow colored Onion in the ground. Approach it, and it will turn bright yellow and rise out of the ground, and produce a single Yellow Pikmin sprout which you can then multiply.

In the second game, the yellow Onion is visible immediately upon entering the third area, the Perplexing Pool, along with a few wild Yellow Pikmin. You will need Red and White Pikmin to reach them. First, head around the side of the stump where you see the Onion, where you'll find a scale puzzle. Once you get passed that, you'll see that the only way to where the Onion is has a wall raised with poison generators beneath it, and a Fiery Bulblax blocking the way to that wall. Use your Red Pikmin to kill it, and then use your White Pikmin to break down the gate and disable the poison generators. After that, all you'll need to do is whistle the wild Yellows.

In the third game, Brittany finds the yellow Onion immediately upon entering the third area, the Distant Tundra. She'll wind up in a cave where she'll find two Yellow Pikmin trying to light a light bulb, and three Pikmin sprouts in the ground. With all five, the light bulb will light, and the Onion will bloom and rise from the ground. Within the cave, there are enough pellets to generate twenty more Yellow Pikmin, for a maximum total of 25; you will need at least twenty to open the way out of the cave.

Leave Pikmin at the entrance to the area where you fight the Beady Long Legs, and it may leave the area to try to follow them. If it falls down a pit or isn't killed outside the arena after a certain amount of time, the game will crash.

The best way to try this glitch is to test it on the Beady Long Legs in The Final Trial in Challenge Mode.

In Pikmin 2, you just get "The Key". In Pikmin 1 and I believe Pikmin 3, you have to beat the game.

In Pikmin 2, there is no name given to the ship, but is known generally as just "The Ship."

The Super Smash Bros. Brawl trophy calls it the "Hocotate Ship."

Because it is ugly
