*''Pikmin 2'': '''[[5 day run]]''' to obtain all 201 [[treasure]]s, 1 day run to reach the credits, and 4 days to rescue [[Louie]].
*''Pikmin 2'': '''[[5 day run]]''' to obtain all 201 [[treasure]]s, 3 day run to reach the credits (theoretically possible in 1 day).
*''Pikmin 3'': Usually '''[[10 day run]]''' to obtain all fruits. However, there is a glitch that allows [[Winged Pikmin]] to become invincible if they are whistled one frame before they die, which allows them to pick up the two blue-required fruits so that [[Twilight River]] can be completed in a single day. Therefore, '''9 day run''' to obtain all fruits, '''[[7 day run]]''' to reach the credits.

*''Pikmin 4'': 0 Pikmin grown to reach the credits. Throwing Pikmin at a [[Candypop Bud]] and escaping the sublevel without collecting the sprouts will not increase the number of Pikmin grown or the number of Pikmin lost. In addition, Pikmin that are ejected from the [[Onion]] after a [[Pikmin extinction]] will only count if the sprout is plucked. The usage of [[Glow Pikmin]] also does not count.{{cite youtube|GfSkxvxJB9A|of a 0 Pikmin run|published={{date|17|August|2023}}|retrieved={{date|18|August|2023}}}} Without the trick to reduce the total to zero, only 7 Pikmin are needed to reach both the credits and final boss, while 91 Pikmin are needed to collect all treasures and complete all missions. 90 Purple Pikmin are needed for the [[Golden Vaulting Table]], which Oatchi can reach by abusing the collision of Ultra-Spicy Berries. All other types can be reduced to zero by converting them to Purple Pikmin, but the Onion will produce seeds for up to 3 types which have had their Onion fused (only 1 seed if only the Red Pikmin Onion has been found at the time).

**Olimar's Shipwreak Tale: 20 Pikmin are required becuse of the [[Nova Blaster]] either requiring 20 [[Yellow Pikmin]] for the [[clipboard]], or a skip which doesn't let [[Moss]] get to it.

An Onionless run is impossible in [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]] because the starting Pikmin are inside the Onion, [[Moss]] is in another [[area]] and Olimar cannot acquire the [[Extra Hand]].

Except where mandatory, [[enemy]] deaths must be avoided. Pikmin can be sustained using the likes of [[pellet]]s.
*''Pikmin 3'': 10 enemies total must be defeated: the 3 [[Female Sheargrub]]s to get enough pikmin to push the box; a [[Medusal Slurker]] to get rock pikmin; an [[arachnode]] to get winged pikmin; and all 6 bosses.
*''Pikmin 4'': 4 enemies total must be defeated, the 3 [[Bulborb Larva]]s to rescue [[Shepherd]], and the [[Fiery Blowhog]] to get access to more [[night expedition]]s.
