The original Pikmin game came out for the Nintendo Switch over 20 years ago and was a smashing success. Between Olimar and the Pimin being adorable along with the interesting new gameplay, the game was very well-received by critics and fans alike. Due to this, they made two more games with Pikmin 2 and 3 coming out within nearly a decade of the original.

Now, it has been a long break for fans. Pikmin 4 getting announced and releasing soon has those same fans excited to see their Pikmin fighting to survive as a team once more.

Red Pikmin

Fire is no sweat to these feisty creatures. Red Pikmin make a strong first line of attack.

Blue Pikmin

Happy on land and in water. When the going gets wet, fling them into action to transport treasure or combat a creature.

Yellow Pikmin

Shockingly great at smashing electrified gates or directing currents. They can dig really well and get awesome air when thrown, too.

Ice Pikmin (New in Pimmin 4)

These cool new buds can freeze enemies in their tracks. They can also freeze a body of water, allowing others to cross.

Glow Pikmin (New in Pimmin 4)

These strange new Pikmin thrive in the dark, but can also turn into a ball of light so shiny, it can stun enemies!

Purple Pikmin

Whoa—a single Purple Pikmin has the strength and weight of 10 regular Pikmin! Because of this extra oomph, Purple Pikmin can stun enemies when thrown and carry heavier objects. It also makes them slower on their feet.

Rock Pikmin

These sturdy Pikmin are heavy and unbreakable—perfect for smashing crystals or dealing with large, stompy enemies.

Winged Pikmin

High-flying Pikmin that can carry stuff over water and lift obstructions. They’re also good at battling enemies that can fly.

White Pikmin

Careful—these speedy little ones are poisonous! On the plus side, they can take on toxic environments better than others.
