'''Brittany''' ({{j|ブリトニー|Buritonī}}) is one of the three [[leader]]s in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. She visits [[PNF-404]], along with [[Alph]] and her captain, [[Charlie]] in search of food for the hungry planet of [[Koppai]]. She is a botanist, who is responsible of keeping track of the fruit found on the planet and juices produced by the crew.

Brittany is, for the most part, a caring and friendly individual. She takes her role as the crew's botanist very seriously, making note of every piece of fruit the crew finds, and also portioning out the helpings of juice delivered at the end of each day. Brittany is a bit of a glutton, humorously noted for retaining the largest portions of juice among her fellow crewmates.

[[Alph]] does suspect that she tends to take slightly more than her share of juice, but Brittany will always shrug it off and insist that she is handing out equal portions, implying she is also fairly dishonest. She also seems to have a liking for all things cute, particularly the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] and some of the [[fruit]] she encounters.

 

Brittany appears to have a mostly friendly relationship with Alph, sometimes calling him "Alphie" in an affectionate way and always preferring to talk with him instead of Charlie. However, she seems to have a disliking for [[Charlie]], noted by insulting his favorite color when mentioning the green color of [[Dawn Pustules]] and suspecting that he was 'hogging all the fruit to himself' before rescuing him in [[Distant Tundra]]. She will also consider giving him portions of juice even smaller than Alph's. Brittany also seems to get lonely and homesick easily, as seen in the Fruit Files, where she says she misses her family and frequently relates fruit to her [[auntie Bea]], who she is particularly fond of.

 

 

 

However, their ship malfunctions and they become separated just before landing, with the cosmic-drive key also being lost, which is mandatory for leaving the planet. The three eventually reunite and begin collecting fruit, harvesting their seeds and using their juice for sustenance while on the planet, and eventually meets up with [[Louie]] and later on [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]], who they rescue from the [[Plasm Wraith]]. He then gives them their lost cosmic-drive key, allowing them to return to Koppai safely with their findings. She may also have a relative named [[Nelle]] from ''[[Pikmin 4]]''.

:''"I'm here. Now what?"''

:''"Whew! I'm here! Ready?"''

:''"I've arrived!"''

:''"Sorry for the delay."''

:''"Yikes!"''

:''"Yikes! Stay back!"''

:''"I need orders, quick!"''

:''"Can I have some help here?!"''

:''"New fruit! Yay!"''

:''"Let's analyse the other fruit!"''

:''"We've retrieved a new type of fruit. Can't wait to taste it!"''

:''"Well... We didn't gather any food at all today! We need to step it up!"''

:''"We did our best...but we didn't find any food today. Not good."''

:''"We've worked hard today, and now it's time for our reward!"''

:''"I'll ration out the food supply!"''

::''"(Alph can make do with a slightly smaller portion...)"''

:''"Knowing this is waiting at the end of the day makes it all worthwhile!"''

::''"(It's a pity I have to split it with the others though...)"''

::''"(If only I didn't have to share it with the others...)"''

:''"Well then... Bottoms up!"''

:''"Good! We still have juice left."''

:''"We have enough food to last us for a short while at least."''

:''"This is great! We actually have a little bit of a juice buffer!"''

:''"Urk... We don't have much juice left. We need more fruit, like, now!"''

:''"Oh dear... We don't have much juice left... We need to find more fruit ASAP!"''

:''"Dazzling..."''

:''"It's looks so lovely and fluffy..."''

:''"Ooh, a hot spring!"''

:''"From here, I should be able to throw them to the other side!"''

:''Alph: "Incoming call! Who's it from?"''

:''Brittany: "Alph! It's me, Brittany! Do you copy?"''

:''Brittany: "Thank goodness! You're with the S.S. Drake, right?"''

:''Brittany: "I made it through the landing in one piece. The thing is, I'm trapped somewhere."''

:''Brittany: "And I'm starv-"''

:''Alph: "Oh, no! We've been cut off! I wonder how far Brittany is."''

:''Alph: "In any case, I'm glad that she seems to be safe and sound."''

:''Alph: "Brittany's just lying there! I hope I'm not too late!"''

:''Alph: "Pick up, Brittany! Pick up! Please be OK!"''

:''Alph: "......"''

:''Brittany: "Alph?! Sorry about that. I was just taking a little nap. So, you're close by?"''

:''Brittany: "Why wasn't I moving, you ask? Hee hee, well, you know me. I can sleep anywhere."''

:''Brittany: "But never mind that. Listen, I discovered what looks like a huge piece of fruit! It's over there!"''

:''Brittany: "But I'm stuck here for the time being. Could you go and check it out for me?"''

:''"Alph! I've been waiting for you!"''

:''"I can't break through this wall."''

:''"Do something, Alphie!"''

:''"Can you smash this wall?"''

:''"Whew! I can't tell you how happy I am to get out of this place."''

:''"I'm fed up of sleeping rough. And I'm super hungry!"''

:''"Uh... What's with your entourage there?"''

:''"......"''

:''"What's that you say? They're called Pikmin? They're cute."''

:''"But we don't have time for cuteness right now! Look over there, Alph!"''

:''"Let's work together and nab that huge piece of fruit!"''

:''"All right, here we go!"''

:''"First, switch what you're throwing..."''

:''"so you can throw me!"''

:''"OK!"''

:''"Throw me!"''

:''"OK, let's throw some Pikmin."''

:''"OK!"''

:''"I'll take it from here! Press {{button|wiiu|y|wii|-|wiiu|pcy}}, if you'd be so kind!"''

:''"Think I'll keep my distance..."''

:''"Now, what could this be? The radar's picking something up."''

:''"There's a signal coming from here! Maybe it's a new type of food!"''

:''"Let's go and look right away!"''

:''"How odd to find such a memo!"''

:''"Come to think of it, the radar did have a "Go Here!" feature."''

:''"Maybe I should give it a try later on."''

:''"Huh, what's going on? Pikmin in peril!"''

:''"If I whistle with {{button|wiiu|zr|wii|b|wiiu|pcr}}, maybe I can help."''

:''"Oh no! Drowning Pikmin!"''

:''"I need to blow the whistle with {{button|wiiu|zr|wii|b|wiiu|pcr}} to call the Pikmin back over here!"''

:''"The signal seems like it's coming from past here."''

:''"What? There's a data file all the way out here?"''

:''"Hocotate? Isn't that near Koppai?"''

:''"Yeah, if I'm remembering right, its inhabitants love treasure and eat only vegetables."''

:''"Did they come all this way to hunt for treasure? This Olimar guy must have a lot of time to spare..."''

:''"Looks like some kind of nest..."''

:''"Something doesn't feel quite right here..."''

:''"Nononope! Keep away!"''

:''"I need to do something about that shell..."''

:''"It broke! Maybe now..."''

:''"Where's it hiding?"''

:''"I can't use that by myself..."''

:''"It will soon be sundown."''

:''"According to what Alph said, stray Pikmin face attacks from nocturnal predators."''

:''"It looks like the Pikmin in the area of the nest thing we call an Onion can get back on their own, though.''"

:''"I'd better call back any Pikmin who aren't in my squad."''

:''Alph: "We've finally discovered edible matter!"''

:''Brittany: "Yes! And after careful analysis, my conclusion is that the fruit juice... is delicious!"''

:''Alph: "I've never tasted anything like it on Koppai!"''

:''Brittany: "There's got to be more where that came from. Let's focus our efforts on finding as much as we can!"''

:''Alph: "But don't forget the cosmic drive key! It's no use finding fruit if we can't get it back to Koppai."''

:''Brittany: "Right! Gathering food and locating the cosmic drive key. That should be more than enough to keep us busy."''

:''Alph: "And, err, don't forget the Captain. We need to rescue him as well!"''

:''Brittany: "The Captain? Oh yeah. He almost slipped my mind."''

:''Brittany: "Well I guess we can pick him up along the way."''

:''Brittany: "What's that signal coming from over there?"''

:''Alph: "It has to be the Captain! Let's hurry up and rescue him!"''

:''Brittany: "...Good idea. He might be hogging all the fruit to himself."''

:''"Ouch ouch ouch! My...face... Alph? Are you OK?"''

:''"Alph? I said, are you OK?"''

:''"Oh, no! Don't tell me we've been separated again!"''

:''"It's so dark in here..."''

:''"There's something here!"''

:''"What are these Pikmin doing?"''

:''"Pikmin sprouts?"''

:''"Is this another Onion? I suppose they need light to live."''

:''"I can feel a draft coming in..."''

:''Brittany: "Phew! It's good to be outside again. I was getting claustrophobic in that cave!"''

:''Brittany: "Hey, there's Alph! And the S.S. Drake is there, too!"''

:''Brittany: "Alph! I'm over here!"''

:''Alph: "Ah, Brittany! Thank goodness you're OK!"''

:''Alph: "I see you're on the other side of the river!"''

:''Alph: "Our first priority is to reunite, so let's work together! Press Y when you want to hand over control!"''

:''Brittany: "Got it!"''

:''Brittany: "This place is absolutely freezing! If we stay too long, I'm afraid we're going to die of exposure."''

:''Brittany: "That is, if we don't die of starvation first."''

:''Alph: "Hey Brittany!"''

:''Alph: "Did you find something interesting over there?"''

:''Brittany: "Yes, actually! A new type of Pikmin!"''

:''Alph: "Really?!"''

:''Brittany: "Yep, they're yellow and have big ears!"''

:''Alph: "Wow! I want to meet them too!"''

:''Brittany: "OK!"''

:''Brittany: "I'll have to find a place where I can throw them across to you."''

:''"The Pikmin seem to be having problems carrying their load back. I'd better do something...''"

:''"I can feel a warm breeze coming from within..."''

Brittany's name references botany (biology specializing in plants), as Brittany is a scientist in this field of biology. The initial of her name is also the same letter of her prototype name ("Character B"), just like [[Alph]] and [[Charlie]].
