| Pikmin are a species of small plant-like creatures that exist in the ''Pikmin'' series. They have also appeared in the [[Marioverse]] on a number of occasions. Of the Pikmin that have appeared in the Mario series, only three varieties of Pikmin have appeared. Pikmin made their first appearance into the Marioverse during the events of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. Pikmin can be collected as a trophy. A savegame of the ''Pikmin'' game is needed on the [[GameCube]]'s Memory Card in order to get the Captain Olimar trophy.

If certain flower beds were struck by a golf ball, Pikmin would pop out of the flowerbed and attempt to flee. These flower beds can be found in various stages. In ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'', Pikmin made an appearance in a microgame.

Mario came in first, Yoshi came in second and Link came in last (Later on, Diddy Kong would claim the spot as number one).
