'''Pikmin''' are a plant-animal hybrid species and the namesake of the ''{{iw|pikipedia|Pikmin series|Pikmin}}'' series. They are {{iw|pikipedia|pluck}}ed out of the ground by {{iw|pikipedia|leader}}s to use in battles and assist them. Pikmin have made cameos in some media of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]].


==History==
==''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros. series]]''==
===''Luigi's Mansion''===
Pikmin serve Captain Olimar in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Although they are technically not playable, Olimar is almost completely helpless without them, for they are featured in all of Olimar's Special Moves. As such, they must be [[Pikmin Pluck|plucked]] from the ground. When [[Kirby]] gets Olimar's ability, he can also use Pikmin, but after plucking them, he immediatly throws them.
Pikmin appear in a trailer for the first ''{{iw|pikipedia|Pikmin (game)|Pikmin}}'' game in the options menu for ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''.


===''Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour''===
=== Role in the [[Subspace Emissary]] ===
[[File:MGTT_Pikmin.jpg|thumb|left|Pikmin in ''Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour'']]
Captain Olimar's Pikmin are attacking a huge [[R.O.B.]], however, they are so weak they do no damage. The R.O.B. simply spins around and all the Pikmin that were on him fly in all directions and turn into ghosts and die. Captain Olimar starts shivering in fear at the huge robot. A red Pikmin walks up to Olimar and taps him on the side. Olimar turns around and the red Pikmin points out the [[Blue Falcon]] speeding through the forest.
If a golf ball lands in a patch of flowers in ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'', {{iw|pikipedia|Red Pikmin|Red}}, {{iw|pikipedia|Yellow Pikmin|Yellow}}, and {{iw|pikipedia|Blue Pikmin}} fly out.<ref>{{cite|date=June 21, 2021|author=ShadowMario3|url=youtu.be/85cqvBa8NIk?feature=shared&t=221|title=''Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour'': Boo Taunts and Easter Eggs|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=December 18, 2024}}</ref>
{{br}}


===''Donkey Konga 2''===
[[Captain Falcon]] jumps out of the Blue Falcon and then [[Falcon Punch]]es the huge Robot right in his face. The R.O.B. then falls back destroyed. Captain Falcon lands back on the ground while doing a slide similar to the [[Falcon Kick]]. However, while he is sliding on the ground, he accidentally hurts Pikmin that came in contact with him and killed them all. Captain Falcon just stands there striking a pose while Captain Olimar and the red Pikmin watch as the wind blows a leaf by. Olimar and his Pikmin decide to team up with Falcon.
Three badges in ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]'' depict a Red, Blue, and Yellow Pikmin, using their clay artwork from ''Pikmin 2''.

====''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''====
[[File:BrawlOlimar.jpg|thumb|Artwork of Pikmin with Olimar for ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'']]
Pikmin serve {{iw|smashwiki|Olimar (SSBB)|Olimar}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Although they are technically not playable, Olimar is almost completely helpless without them, for they are featured in all of Olimar's special moves, smash attacks, aerial attacks (except for his neutral aerial), and grabs. As such, they must be {{iw|pikipedia|pluck}}ed from the ground. When [[Kirby]] gains Olimar's ability, he can also use Pikmin, but after plucking them, he immediately throws them.
In [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]], a group of Pikmin start to attack a [[smashwiki:R.O.B._Squad#Giant_R.O.B.|giant R.O.B.]] which simply rises its arms and spins around knocking them all off and kills most of them. Olimar is shocked and scared, however his {{iw|pikipedia|Red Pikmin}} informs him of a new visitor. The [[Blue Falcon]] speeds through the forest. {{iw|smashwiki|Captain Falcon (SSBB)|Captain Falcon}} jumps out of the car, and {{iw|smashwiki|Falcon Punch}}es the giant R.O.B., sending it flying away. Landing after his attack, Captain Falcon accidentally kills many of the Pikmin, but teams up with Olimar, regardless; and the pair run along some old ruins fighting the [[Subspace Army]]. They notice an {{iw|lylatwiki|Arwing}} attacking the ship carrying [[Donkey Kong]]: {{iw|smashwiki|Falco (SSBB)|Falco}} drops [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] out of his Arwing, and with his Peanut Popguns, Diddy shoots the ship holding Donkey Kong. Captain Falcon and Captain Olimar run to assist.

====''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''====
Pikmin return to assist {{iw|smashwiki|Olimar (SSB4)|Olimar}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]''. Olimar is titled "Pikmin & Olimar" on the character selection screen, although not in English releases. Olimar can only have three Pikmin following him, instead of six, and his {{iw|smashwiki|recovery}} involves being carried by {{iw|pikipedia|Winged Pikmin}}.
====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
The same Pikmin from the previous installment return alongside {{iw|smashwiki|Olimar (SSBU)|Olimar}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
===''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''===
A Red Pikmin appears as a motif piece hanging on the helmet of the [[Mii#amiibo racing suits|Pikmin Suit]] in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' starting with the version 4.0 update and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''.
===''Super Mario Maker''===
[[File:SMM Pikmin.png|frame]]
Pikmin are one of the obtainable [[Costume Mario|costume]] power-ups in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]''. Pikmin sound effects can be heard, the "lose a life" tune is replaced by the Pikmin's own death cries, and the "Course Clear" fanfare is replaced by the tune that plays after obtaining an important item in ''{{iw|pikipedia|Pikmin 3}}''. Pressing {{button|wii|Padup}} causes the red and blue Pikmin to {{iw|pikipedia|Maturity|mature}} into flowers. While underwater, the three Pikmin are encased in a bubble.

Several Pikmin appear on the [[:File:Super Nintendo World Bag Art.jpg|artwork]] used for the bags in the [[Super Nintendo World]] theme park land and can be found hidden on ledges throughout and as an hidden animation viewed through the augmented reality [[binoculars]]. Visitors can obtain a stamp named "Pick out Pikmin" depicting a Pikmin if they view this animation. Some of these hidden Pikmin are seen working together carrying items such as a [[Coin]] and a [[fruit (Yoshi food)|fruit]].<ref>{{cite|author=Lloyd, S.|date=February 3, 2021|url=wdwnt.com/2021/02/photos-video-spotting-hidden-pikmin-in-super-nintendo-world|title=PHOTOS, VIDEO: Finding Hidden Pikmin in Super Nintendo World|publisher=WDW News Today|accessdate=February 4, 2021|language=en}}</ref>
In the Donkey Kong Country section of Super Nintendo World, several more Pikmin make an appearance on a mural based on [[25m]] in the queue for the [[Super Nintendo World#Mine-Cart Madness|Mine-Cart Madness]] attraction. It depicts a group of two Pikmin running away from a [[barrel]] and two others that have been turned into {{iw|pikipedia|Soul|Pikmin souls}}. A group of blue Pikmin can be seen near a fountain of water spurting from a toppled portion of the ruins.

===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''===
In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', a statue resembling a Pikmin appears in the [[BrKLnCouple|Brooklyn Couple]]'s residence.
===Unused appearances===
====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''====
Olimar and a group of Pikmin were planned to appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' when a new type of coffee was made at the [[Starbeans Cafe]]. Olimar would call Mario "Marlio", an anagram of his name, while he would mistake Luigi for a dangerous beast and consider attacking him with his Pikmin.
====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
Pikmin were proposed to appear as cameos in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' during the game's development, but the proposal was rejected by [[Shigeru Miyamoto]], who stated that there is no functional reason to include them due to their different body size when compared to ''Super Mario'' enemies.<ref>{{cite|author=McWhertor, M.|date=March 12, 2012|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/20120314001735/http://www.gametrailers.com/side-mission/2012/03/12/super-mario-galaxy-2-could-have-featured-donkey-kong-and-pikmin-cameos-but-miyamoto-said-no|title=Super Mario Galaxy 2 Could Have Featured Donkey Kong and Pikmin Cameos, But Miyamoto Said "No"|publisher=GameTrailers|accessdate=August 11, 2023}}</ref>

The Pikmin's first appearance in the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]] was in ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]''. Here, if the golf ball landed in a patch of flowers, Pikmin would pop out. This implies that Pikmin may live in the [[Mushroom World]], in addition to [[earth]].

|''These small, fast-footed Pikmin are white with red eyes. That ominous look they have might give you the chills, and you'd be right to be scared - the little blighters are poisonous! In this game, they'll hang on to any enemy you throw them at and generously share their venom with them.''

|''These purple Pikmin are much stronger than their colourful counterparts, but they're also slower and heavier. In Pikmin, they can be thrown at animals to stun them! In this game, they're good at both attacking and launching, but since they haven't got good reach, you'll need to get up close and personal with your foes first!''

|colspan=2|''These Pikmin are made of solid rock, so they can stand up to a lot of attacks and won't get hurt when they get stepped on. They specialize in body blows, dealing a lot of damage when thrown, and they can also break right through glass and crystal. They can't latch on to other creatures, though. But that's OK—nobody's perfect!''

|''These pink Pikmin have big, blue eyes and nice wings to help them fly. In Smash Bros., they show up to carry Olimar and friends through the air. However, how high and far they can fly is affected by how many friends they have to carry. More Pikmin will weigh them down.''
|''This particular type of Pikmin has a pink body, blue eyes and...wings? Yep, they can fly, and in this game, they can even give Olimar a lift. The only thing is they'll get tired very easily, especially if they're carrying lots of other Pikmin at the same time. Go easy on them, OK?''

*In the [[pikipedia:Pikmin Short Movies|''Pikmin'' Short Movie]] "[[pikipedia:Occupational Hazards|Occupational Hazards]]", a red Pikmin is seen going through a [[Warp Pipe]] while collecting some [[Coin]]s, then emerging with dust forming Mario's hat and mustache on its face. Sound effects and the first seven notes of the Ground Theme from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' can also be heard.
*In ''[[pikipedia:Pikmin Bloom|Pikmin Bloom]]'', there is a Special [[pikipedia:Decor Pikmin|Decor Pikmin]] wearing a [[Mario Cap]] keychain.


==References==
They later appeared in a ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' Microgame in ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'', which belonged to [[9-Volt]]. Here, the [[player]] controls Empress Bulblax and must roll over all of the Pikmin to squish them before the time runs out. However, it will get harder. The Pikmin will grow larger and start jumping over the player.
