The following are the world records for various types of speedruns. Note that, unless otherwise noted, these times are for real-time runs, not in-game timer runs or [[tool-assisted speedrun]]s. The runs are split by category, and different regions of a game may have different timing methods, tools, or glitches, which all affect a player's speed; these differences are further explained on the '''[[region]]''' page. | The following are the world records for various types of speedruns.

{{p2}} has an in-game time counter that displays the time it took to repay the debt or to collect all treasures on the [[high scores menu]]. The game only begins counting time when a [[saved game]] is loaded, and writes the time when it is saved. Because the time it saves is only saved with the granularity of a minute, if a player saves the game within one minute of loading it and then loads the newly-saved save game, the timer will keep the same number of minutes on record and assume no time has passed. This means the final result may not match the real time the playthrough took, and can be abused to get times as low as 18 minutes for an all-treasure completion.{{cite youtube|fpVKMgk7RwM|completing sublevel 3 of the [[White Flower Garden]] in under a minute}}{{cite youtube|6-tMPXP69JY|m=10|s=36|demonstrating a change in the low-in-game-time route involving the [[Temporal Mechanism]], [[Pink Menace]], and [[Spiny Alien Treat]]}}{{cite youtube|nMSybTmlERo|of a tool-assisted speedrun completing sublevel 2 of the [[Submerged Castle]] in under 2 minutes}}{{cite youtube|3Ni0ro_9Zeg|of a tool-assisted speedrun completing sublevel 5 of the [[Subterranean Complex]] in under 1 minute}}{{cite youtube|XKwnXSBlyGU|of a tool-assisted speedrun completing sublevel 5 of the [[White Flower Garden]] in under 1 minute}} | {{p2}} has an in-game time counter that displays the time it took to repay the debt or to collect all treasures on the [[high scores menu]].

An '''Onionless''' playthrough is when the player must never withdraw Pikmin out of an [[Onion]] (including the [[Hocotate ship]] in {{p2}}). This means that when Pikmin enter an Onion, they will never be seen again in the playthrough, and the player effectively starts with 0 Pikmin when landing in a new [[area]].

There are a few obstacles in an Onionless playthrough in this game. First of all, the Red Onion must produce a sprout on day 2, and when arriving in [[Awakening Wood]]. Otherwise, the player will be unable to obtain Pikmin for the rest of the playthrough. In order to start day 2 with 0 Red Pikmin, a [[glitch]] called "day 1 extinction" is required.{{cite youtube|IieBje4CqMo|of day 1 extinction}} Also, in order to arrive in the Awakening Wood with 0 Red Pikmin, all of the player's Red Pikmin must be killed, or converted to Purple Pikmin.

Doing this is not hard, it simply requires the player to visit [[Cavern of Chaos]] 20 times, which is tedious, but doable. | There are a few obstacles in an Onionless playthrough in this game.

In this game, a deathless Onionless run is impossible. There is no way to make progress in the [[Garden of Hope]] if there are Red Pikmin in the Onion. However, because "AshEevee" found a way to kill Pikmin on day 1,{{cite youtube|5Z7KuPo76I4|of killing Pikmin on day 1 in ''Pikmin 3''}} an Onionless playthrough is still possible. On day 1, the player can remove all obstacles to the ship, then kill all of their Pikmin. Unlike the 2 previous games, the Onion will make a sprout immediately, but the player must leave it behind so that they can have a red sprout in the Garden of Hope. Going forward, it's best to leave all Pikmin buried or left behind at the end of each day, so that the player can start each new area with 1 of each type of Pikmin sprout. The [[Formidable Oak]] proves to be a challenge, because the player starts with 5 Pikmin, and there is no way to grow more. However, if the player uses the Candypop Buds inside the oak, the player can cause extinctions for the different types of Pikmin, making the Onion produce more. | In this game, a deathless Onionless run is impossible.

A full playthrough has been completed by "JHawk" in 10 in-game days.{{cite youtube|8vHA2-mKye0|of ''Pikmin 3'' Onionless all fruits in 10 days}} | A full playthrough has been completed by "JHawk" in 10 in-game days.{{cite youtube|8vHA2-mKye0|of ''Pikmin 3'' Onionless all fruits in 10 days}} Amazingly, all fruits can still be collected in the optimal number of days under the Onionless restriction. "JHawk" uses various [[glitches]] to save time, mostly ones that also appear in speedruns of this game, such as clipping leaders through walls, or charging Winged Pikmin at fruits in high places. Regardless, [[Garden of Hope]] and [[Tropical Wilds]] were tight on time, he says. However, [[Formidable Oak]] was the most difficult day, as he only obtained 18 Pikmin from farming extinctions, and it takes about half of the day to even start the boss battle, leaving only the other half of the day to beat the boss with very few Pikmin. Technically, it's also possible to complete the game Onionless in 7 in-game days, though this follows from simply playing the first 6 days like in JHawk's playthrough, then completing [[Formidable Oak]] on day 7 in the same way as day 10 of the playthrough. | ||
