No. Pikmin is a video game series created by Nintendo.

Pikmin 3 is a Real-Time Strategy game. It is the sequel to Pikmin 2, which was a Real-Time Strategy game released for the Nintendo GameCube and Nintendo Wii.
Nintendo has not stopped making Pikmin games: Shigeru Miyamoto has confirmed several times that Pikmin 3 is in the works. They have been in the process of creating the third game for a while.
The Nintendo GameCube open-world strategy game Pikmin was released in Japan and North America in late 2001, then in European territories in early 2002.
That game has already been released for the Nintendo Wii.
Shigeru Miyamoto, creator of the Pikmin series, announced at E3 2011 that the game would be shifted to the Wii U, Nintendo's upcoming console.
There will not be a Pikmin released for the DS. Pikmin and Pikmin 2 were originally released by Nintendo exclusively for their GameCube console, however both games have been upgraded with the 'New Play Control!' to enable them to be played on the Nintendo Wii. Nintendo has confirmed they are working on Pikmin 3 for the Wii which is coming out somewhere near the end of 2009 or beginning of 2010. There will definitely not be a Pikmin game for the Nintendo DS. There is only one planned release of Pikmin, and that is Pikmin 3 coming out for the Wii. No other announcements have been made, but many have stated that there will be no Pikmin DS. More details on the 'New Play Control!' and its release dates are shown on the related link.
Nintendo released Pikmin 3 for the Wii U in 2013, and players can purchase either a hard copy in stores that sell them or a digital copy via the online Nintendo Store. In both cases, the online Nintendo Store features extras for the game that players can purchase.
Although the game may make Pikmin appear as slaves, they are in fact not. The Pikmin go off on their own business until Olimar arrives, and they choose to join him. Without Olimar's leadership, they easily fall prey to other creatures on the planet. Promoting slavery would not be something on Nintendo's to-do list. The game was meant to be one of the first Nintendo based games where a player could lead an army (in this case, creatures called Pikmin) to defeat larger enemies and ultimately make the Pikmin world a safer place (although not the intended goal).
At Game Stop it is $150.
No. Pikmin is not a game that features GameCube-to-Game-Boy connectivity.
