The Castaways of Pikmin 4

[@Pancakes_Master]

Imagine you get stranded on a planet and the person rescuing you puts you on a tier list of everyone they’ve ever rescued

[@nightlypiano41]

Dingo amuses me because I thought he was going to help me complete the Dandoori battle against Louie, but instead he just BEATS THE FUCK OUT OF HIM and it was so hilarious to me

[@GamingEelektross]

Whenever he helps, he doesn’t even use Pikmin. He just throws bomb rocks everywhere and gets personal with everything involved and comes out on top.

[@anjoliebarrios8906]

​@@GamingEelektrosshe explodes the same way Louie did that one time in Pikmin 3

[@chez-berger]

Beaux's performance as Brittany in Pikmin 3 was so convincing I didn't even know Brittany wasn't a real character!

[@isaacisaacson8967]

personally, I liked his role as ilamor in the carrot planet series.

[@pressaTD]

Don Bergman is peak

[@chez-berger]

Fiddlebert is peak (he is the secret 51st castaway you get after beating Shipwreck Tale in under 3 days)

[@tibby4503]

Love how the only one with a last name has the same as mine

[@IsabruhMoment]

@@chez-bergerI still can’t forgive Fiddlebert for that 2-hour unskippable cutscene of him listing every slur he knows

[@tangames5592]

@@IsabruhMomentit adds to his personality tho

[@PikminPremacy]

when's the red pikmin only in pikmin 1 coming

[@HoshiArt]

Honorable mention to Sage Leaf for becoming one with dandori

[@lupislord]

2:38 - Kingslys just being polite. Remember that Oatchi is a dog. This is considered a customary greeting.

[@nathanblackburn1193]

Fun fact: All Castaways (aside from Olimar and Louie) are named after dog breeds/canines, there's a lot so I can't go over all of them but, Collin=Border Collie Chowder=Chow Chow Sheeba=Shiba inu Dalmo=Dalmatian Sy=Siberian husky Frise=Bichon Frise Twyla=Rottweiler, if you want the whole list check the Pikmin wiki

[@Monobrobe]

Santi and Bernard were apparently placed right next to each other in the hospital after they were born. I find that detail hilarious.

[@Angel_Alph-TV]

And they're right next to each other in the ranking😂

[@hyliaphora-cecropia]

It’s amazing to me as a Pikmin lore enthusiast how much stuff the castaways in 4 tell you about their home worlds. Most were really endearing in my opinion, but my favorites (excluding the rescue corp and Hocotatians) are the Research Task Force guy who tells you about how there’s only one day of clear skies on Ocobo, the teacher who chaperoned the Planetary Science Club trip, and Pitunia (solely for the disturbing lore she drops if you replicate her look in the character creator) Molly is great too, of COURSE there are going to be clout-chasers heading to the planet on purpose (SURVIVING 25 DAYS ON PNF-404 NOT CLICKBAIT *gone wrong*) Also, I only found out for the first time like 3 days ago about her admiring Russ?? I don’t know when this dialogue first appears, it may only be after you cure Oatchi, but Molly has like 4 boxes about how much she thinks he’s cool. They’re perfect for each other lmao Edit: HOW COULD I FORGET ABOUT SANTI??? Funniest guy in the game right there, Bernard overshadowing him since his actual birth is wild

[@Walumancer]

THANK YOU for putting some respect on my man Horatio's name. Undisputed GOAT of NPC castaways. Though Beaux is cool too.

[@CreatorofSecks]

Dingo actually cares a lot about the other members of the rescue corps if you look closely at his dialogue. He may also have a crush on Shepherd if I’m interpreting it correctly.

[@Dewberry14]

kingsly is my least favorite castaway that gives u a quest. That shit never ends

[@prof.laytonfan764]

It’s a nice way to grind materials but yeah it could’ve ended after 3 quests and would’ve been fine

[@multigrandmarquis]

what about francois?

[@anthonyoliver418]

I like how Olimar is one of the most interesting characters in the story, both main plot and side stuff, he is interested in watching night expeditions even though he usually misses them, he relates his love for his dog with shepherd’s, and the fact that right before you save him he laments how he can’t see his family anymore as a leafling, which is sad and nice once you finally save him.

[@bforblitz4847]

yonny is probably my favorite pikmin 4 original character, he’s genuinely unhinged and his… interesting dialogue is always a joy to read

[@ALEPHNOL]

I love unhinged characters. Like tf2 medic. Or yonny. Or literally any mad scientist ever. I wanna dig in their heads and see what makes them tick.

[@ALEPHNOL]

He a big silly.

[@Lexthefazworker]

Wait, Dingo can do night missions for you? I thought he just sat around and made snarky remarks about how theoretically good he was.

[@anjoliebarrios8906]

He only offers if you fail the same mission at least 2 (three?) times.

[@TongPik3]

36 mins of Heff talking about Pikmin castaways, HE COOKED WITH THIS ONE!!!

[@RGC_animation]

Kingsley and François are the 2 canonical richest character in all of Pikmin, since they are capable of giving you infinite raw materials.

[@Nic_2751]

I wonder where Ms. Frizzle will rank

[@elementus2857]

Why am I only now discovering there's special dialog if you talk to castaways as Oatchi?

[@Rikrobat]

Since rescuing folks is important in the Pikmin 4 mission statement, it’s pretty cool how much time is spent giving everyone at least a shred of personality. I definitely like Yonny more than the rest of the rescue corps though-his unhinged mad scientist ideals and how he makes Collin uncomfy makes for some fun reading.

[@pikminman13]

for whatever reason i like that dash has a silly catchphrase. you can always find him in the pits!

[@thegravityguy4654]

Yonny is great if a bit unhinged

[@lukaslukas8083]

Okay new blood! Hit the second tower!

[@felixmckinney7132]

It unnerved me how he kept calling me “New blood”

[@davidthecommenter]

Morning can't come sooner, eh Luigi?

[@Shadowonwater]

I love Yonny precisely for how unhinged he is

[@redactedinfo8557]

NEW BLOOD GET DOWN THERE'S A BOMB ROCK

[@WaywardZeppelin]

16:32 Somehow I do actually get what you're saying about the large-bodied castaways, and that's hilarious.

[@maxhay9098]

As a scrapyard worker who will happily drink black if that's all that's available, but prefers 2 cream 2 sugar, I take offense to being compared to a crypto-bro. While actually getting a quality roast and indulging in the subtle flavors submerged under the bitter current is a delectable treat, my brother in Christ sometimes you're pulling burnt Nescafe from a 3 days old pot that's been patiently waiting on the warmer, or god forbid settling for instant coffee, and Creamer is there for you. Creamer is ready to turn that bitter hatred inwards, both the coffee's and yours, making the borderline undrinkable almost touch the title of "gourmet," through nothing but dairy and flavorants. TL;DR ain't nothing wrong with making crap coffee bearable. Not all us blue collars going out and getting fresh ground quality arabica blends, lots of us are getting 7/11 "dark roast" from Tuesday.

[@ChrisHinners008]

10:27 YORKE! WAKE THE F@)# UP! IT'S BRITTANY'S GAY COUSIN Nelle

[@Manny4Life948]

My most hated one is the bridge guy, I spent 40 Flippin ingame days looking for all the bridges just to get his side mission done, I wish we left him on the planet.

[@broreece]

I liked the streamer girl

[@z.d.8986]

Implication of Charlie giving Don Bergman a scare is not something I thought I needed today

[@skylerfisher4347]

I like that people think the Pres’s name is Shacho. It’s really funny What he’s actually saying is a shortened version of the Japanese word for ‘President of Company’ “Kaisha no shachō” or just “Shachō” for short

[@thegeniuschannelwithlandon498]

I thought Yonny was a bit quirky but an interesting member, until I talked to Captain Shepherd one morning. Captain Shepherd will tell you that Yonny never lets people into his lab during his experiments. Also while he is working he laughs maniacally. That plus yonny testing various hazards on glow pikmin and the breeding program, I never looked at Yonny the same way again.

[@redactedinfo8557]

[@ALEPHNOL]

@@redactedinfo8557zats how i lost my medical liscense.

[@toyfreddygaming]

YOU DID NOT put my man Donny as the worst crew member. I love that he looks all sweet and soft in the outside but he's probably a Medic TF2 in the inside, looking at his patients more like opportunities for experimentation. He's just so silly!

[@XoCandyHeartzXo]

Agreed, I love him

[@ALEPHNOL]

Best boy papillon |]

[@darkness4807]

I always wanted this ever since I learned the castaways had so much dialogue this is peak. I hope the actor and Bernard’s rival are up near the top

[@PikminPremacy]

fiddlebert has to be one of the, if not, best castawways even though he never ends up needing to be rescued but if you defeat the fiddle wraith in his secret side story without losing a single fiddlemin and never using moss then he will fiddle you and oatchi and give you the fiddlebert blast

[@anjoliebarrios8906]

He'll FIDDLE me?? 😳😳

[@sleepdrowsy7286]

i need dat pikmin music tier list

[@jukoza]

Flooded stump S-Tier

[@da_pikmin_coder8367]

Honestly there is so much I'm learning about those castaways that I did not already know from playing Pikmin 4 twice.

[@potatoefanner2098]

Collin is my favorite crew member, maybe I just love the straight-man archetype.

[@oshahott2532]

Schafrillis said that these characters are pretty weak and yeah they really are but at the same time they're pretty cool. Yeah, forgettable, but still cool.

[@unemilifleur]

Their quests are specially boring

[@gay4sswhovian]

I think we should take them as an introduction to more Pikmin character

[@zswords]

One slight problem, this list is incomplete, as Oatchi is also a castaway, and is the first one you rescue!

[@castonyoung7514]

Not to mention the Dandori Sage, who despite arriving before Olimar, is also likely a castaway.

[@ArtisticallyAlex]

The doctor should’ve been s tier, bro is mad useful, he even gives you the plucking whistle thingy

[@nyon7209]

I'm now imagining Beaux murdering his parents to understand the grief of "a kid with a traumatic past". Though I think it's more likely this implies he had a rough childhood. Also The President was the first character with a last name, as his name is officially "Re Shasho".

[@shriveborn9422]

Yonny is my personal favorite Rescue Corps member. Idk maybe it’s the voice I gave him but I love his dialogue

[@ALEPHNOL]

Yonny is my favourite character besides(shocker) dingo and russel.

[@celiafraze123]

Your dedication to this video is insane I remember watching you stream every dialogue option while working on my finals for university and damn I was not expecting this!!! Absolute insane video as always Heff!

[@RetroRaccoon]

OOOOOO ARBY'S?!?!

[@hatcher365]

i love how everyone agrees the president is named sacho.

[@churupinha3510]

i knew there was something fucked up about pitunia

[@felixmckinney7132]

Man, I really hate Nelle. She’s just Brittney but a jerk. Brittney is for sure one of my favorite captains in the series. She’s like a perfect balance between Olimar & Louie, but Nelle feels like they took out all of Brittney’s good traits and made her taller.

[@Toches]

I'm actually kind of surprised you didn't switch olimar and Louie tbh Louie is just chaos incarnate and I figured you'd put his post-game efforts above olimars main-game efforts 😂

[@gamenwatch6269]

I can't believe you ranked all 50 of the Catsaways XD

[@richy_tornado]

Real

[@ALEPHNOL]

Yonny aint the worst, although in moral terms….. yeeeah i can see why you rank him there. He is still my favourite though.

[@gay4sswhovian]

Yonny is a menace to society and I love him for this

[@zacki102]

gotta love how they made 50 characters and all of them look bad. Like damn that would be almost impressive if it weren't a billion dollar company

[@gay4sswhovian]

Theyre aliens bro
