'''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]]''.

:''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: "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."''

:''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."''

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]].

*Brittany is one of the few characters with a normally sized nose. It appears to run in her family and it is hinted that they wished they had big noses as she states that they all envy her aunt's big one.
