With the success of the Super Mario Bros movie, I really, really hope that Pikmin will be made into a feature length film. They could be the more charming version of the minions in a way. And if Nintendo sticks with Illumination, they would have experience animating little creatures that speak gibberish and get into antics with one another.

1:54 As the white pikmin, I took that personally

[@shlingusdingus4174]

There are a total of 4 onscreen deaths in this film, 3 being Pikmin, and 1 Bulborb. Two blue Pikmin are killed, 1 via electrocution, the other by predation from the Bulborb, as same with the red Pikmin. The White Pikmin is fine, as its shown that Pikmin don't take fall damage, nor do they do in-game, but in this case, due to their unique petal parachute ability. So no, I won't be counting that. However, the number of Pikmin appear to be cut short by the end, suggesting that a large majority were lost during the collapse of the machinery. If I assume right, additionally, the Fiery Blowhog was situated right underneath the crane, and the yellow Pikmin in that electrified formation deep within the machine. Because of the lack of distance of Olimar's whistle, and the Fiery Blow Hog being *right underneath* the crane and in a weakened state, they can be counted as assumed casualties, adding an additional 25 deaths, or 29 so far. Though I'm not dedicated enough to count each and every Pikmin, (although I might in the future), we can easily see from a glance that there are WAY more than the standard cap of 100 Pikmin working on this sight. More like a few hundred, but not a thousand. By the end of the film, there are 8 Pikmin standing around the deceased Bulborb, and another 22 standing with Olimar. So 30 in total. If my assumption is correct, then HUNDREDS OF PIKMIN WERE LOST. Good lord, Olimar lost a whole playthroughs worth of Pikmin in a single incident! That machine probably flattened the poor things. You got that many Pokos, sure, but at the cost of decimating like 75% percent, if not more of the Pikmin population that he cultivated.

Blue pikmin pog

[@MantaKizaemonFTW]

My personal headcanon is that pikmin souls move on from one host to another since their lives are so expendable. I also have it as a coping mechanism for whenever they die

[@moonlightgamer5935]

I like to think when they die they are transported to the onion and you need to bring the flowers to revive them

[@MantaKizaemonFTW]

These shorts gave me a greater appreciation for the Pikmin, in the games they just seem really lifeless but here they have so much personality

[@airgod231]

Red Pikmin 01 I’m still hopeful

[@Latenivenatrix_Mcmasterae]

4:16 anybody realize that the red pikmin that ended up holding the white pikmin yelled “no” Also pay attention to the red that’s on the pile through the entire scene, he just starts laughing, and that’s a detail I doubt many people noticed and that comes to show how much the animators cared about this, also throughout all the shorts you can find MANY background or non noticed expressions or detail that barely any people noticed, wow they really did care

[@turtleboi456]

Also in the intro, the pikmin say pikmin

[@imnotactivern3120]

i just hear “wha no”

@@imnotactivern3120 yeah i meant when he raises his hands in the air

[@louiepikmin9703]

Haha I like suffering

[@themonkeyman2910]

How about the fact that the Red Pikmin is the only one who could withstand the steam coming off of the White Pikmin because he is immune to heat. The other Pikmin who crowded around had to back off because they couldn’t handle it.

[@AriaHope]

I still really love how they incorporated the in game sound track to this animation, it's so cool knowing how certain songs are used in game and seeing them used the same way here

2:01 I no longer see why it is so hard to escape the planet if they can just get some purple pikmin to launch them out of the atmosphere. If olimar or the koppaites ever get stranded on the planet again, they should try this strategy to save time.

[@FBEAR05]

Well since 2 purples are the same as 20 Pikmin, and assuming the captains are about 1.5 times the weight of one Pikmin (Captains can't be thrown as high as Pikmin) it would take 3 purples to bring them to Space.
