=Lighting=
===Heading 3===
'''Lighting''' is the arrangement or effect of objects that produce light, in order to depict a lit environment with depth and color. In video games, this specifically refers to any calculated light source that illuminates and shades 3D objects, as well as fog that obscures distant objects. In the [[Pikmin series]], lighting is extremely important to achieving realistic-looking environments and objects, as the designers try to create as much realism in the ''Pikmin'' world as possible.
This is also text.


In this article:
==The treasure==
*"Light" is any object, seen or unseen, that illuminates an environment.
This treasure is located at the end of the path on the east side of the landing site.
*"Dynamic" lights are lights that move or cause visible highlights or reflections on objects, while
*"Static" lights are lights that simply add brightness to an area without interacting with other objects.
*"Shading" is the contrast of color on an object because one side of it is illuminated by a light.
*"Shadows" are shapes of low light on a surface, created when an object stands in between light rays and that surface.
*"Materials" are the compositions of objects that interact with light in different ways.


==Light sources==
===Appearance===
Sunlight is the primary source of light in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]], and plays an important role in conveying the passage of a [[day]]. When a day begins, the color and brightness of a landscape try to suggest morning. As the day progresses, the sun gets brighter and the environment more colorful, until late in the day when it begins setting and colors become more orange as in a sunset. Each game in the series has a unique way of handling sunlight and the shadows it casts, and as the games progress, this arrangement gets closer to simulating real sunlight.
This treasure appears to be a can.


===''Pikmin''===
===Olimar's Notes===
The only dynamic light is sunlight, that shades all objects but does not actually calculate shadows. This light moves throughout the day, beginning foggy and bright in the morning, clear and at average brightness for the majority of the day, and fading to yellow to orange and finally to very little light as [[Day#Sunset|sunset]] approaches (except in [[The Forest Navel]]; sunlight is still present there but does not move or change color). All objects in an area have shading based on this light, but none of the scenery casts real moving shadows based on this light. To help players perceive Pikmin locations, up to 50 Pikmin will cast soft shadows that move throughout the day, even when there is no sunlight. In order to optimize processing power, shadows cast by Pikmin are not drawn if more than 51 Pikmin are on the field; instead, they will all have faint shadows directly underneath them. Enemies always have this sort of faint shadow, except for the [[Beady Long Legs]]. Environmental objects like [[Vegetation|plants]] never move on the map, so one large texture accounts for all their shadows. The exception is [[Pellet Posies]], which cast soft dynamic shadows just like Pikmin.
I have no idea what is inside this mystical container. I am tempted to open it... But, if I open it, it could lose its value... I guess I'll just have to use my imagination...


All other forms of light, such as [[Common Glowcap]]s, the light beams coming from the [[Onion]]s, and even the light around Captain Olimar in The Forest Navel, are static lights. They do not cast any shading or shadows on objects, but simply brighten the area around them to aid visibility or provide light effects, such as the powerful exhaust from the [[S.S. Dolphin]].

'''Talks'''(PAL)/'''Check-Ins'''(NTSC) are optional conversations between Alph, Brittany and Charlie inside the SS Drake in ''Pikmin 3''. They mostly consist of dialogue where the main characters discuss what next step they should take in their journey. Occasionally though, they will also take a moment to have small talk and get to know each other.The player can initiate a conversation by pressing (-)/(Y) when on the area selection menu.
In-game, the topic of the discussion depends on the activities that happened the previous day. For example, if The characters discovered a new type of Pikmin, they'll have a talk about that, and if not, they might talk about how much fruit they have collected so far. If there's nothing of interest to talk about, The main characters will talk about their life and family on Koppai.
Below are transcriptions of all the conversations. Underscores ("_") represent a variable number, like the current number of fruit collected.


===''Pikmin 2''===
=PAL conversations=
Sunlight in [[Pikmin 2|''Pikmin 2'']] behaves very similarly to that in the previous game, except the color of sunlight varies by area, and fog is generally less pronounced. Around noon, the brightness of the sunlight generally increases, and toward the end of the day it dramatically decreases and turns orange. Yet at any point in the day, when a leader approaches an incomplete [[cave]] from above ground, the lighting always mixes a very foggy green color to its current color. All objects are shaded by this sunlight, but most of them (including static objects) do not cast accurate shadows. Instead, most moving objects cast circular shadows directly beneath them, and those shadows never move. However, unlike the shadows in ''Pikmin'', these circular shadows can actually dim other objects, and their simple shape allows many shadows to be rendered at once. Several objects have uniquely shaped shadows for specific reasons, such as:


*{{boulder}} [[Boulder]]s, as they fall from the sky and use a growing shadow.
==Alph==
*{{icon|Segmented Crawbster|y}}, for the same reason.
*{{icon|Empress Bulblax|y}}, since it has a long body of circular segments, has multiple circular shadows.
*[[Arachnorb]]s, [[Snavian]]s, and the [[Titan Dweevil]], since they have extremities that reach beyond their usual shadow.
*{{icon|Waterwraith|y}}, since its rollers appear from the sky before its body.


[[Areas]] have background shadows that are large textures, just like in the previous game, and these shadows sway but do not effect shading in any way. However, now that plants either cast their own shadows or none at all, background shadows do not have to account for the locations of plants in the area, and can add more interest to the look of the environment.
===Before first finding Brittany===
"The signal is coming from...around here! It must be Brittany! I had better hurry up and help her..."


{{game help|p2|Confirm if the Solar System truly has no effect on the final sublevel of Dream Den.}}
"I still can't shake this nagging feeling that there was something more to our crash than we know. It felt almost as if some power from the planet's surface were manipulating our ship..."
In [[cave]]s, light is very limited, and sometimes completely absent beyond a certain distance, due to very dark distance fog. Objects are still shaded by some dynamic light to give them depth, but they are barely or not visible until a [[leader]] comes close enough with the static area light around them. This static light's radius, color, and brightness vary by sublevel, depending on what mood is being set. Once the [[Solar System]] is obtained, however, caves are always fully illuminated and everything is visible. Some sublevels behave this way anyway, such as metal or outdoor areas where backgrounds are visible, and the [[Glutton's Kitchen#Sublevel 6|final sublevel of the Glutton's Kitchen]]. The Solar System does not affect the final sublevel of the [[Dream Den]], and actually darkens the final sublevel of the [[Cavern of Chaos]] as explained [[Gear#Cavern of Chaos 10|here]].


The [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]] in ''Pikmin 2'' is unique in that it simulates a full continuous cycle of lighting including nighttime. During night lighting, ambient light is very dim and darkly blue. Objects still remain shaded and cast simple shadows, but generally colors are darker and duller. Once morning comes around sunlight gradually increases fog color advances from blue to purple back to a faint green, when sunlight finally brings the color balance back to its usual daylight look.

===Met Brittany, fruit discovered===
"Before I do anything else, I need to regroup with Brittany and recover that piece of fruit. We won't even know if it's edible until it's been analysed by the SS Drake's computer, though."


===''Pikmin 3''===
===Met Brittany, No juice left===
The [[Wii U]] can process a great deal more data about lighting 3D objects than the [[GameCube]], and so [[Pikmin 3|''Pikmin 3'']] presents a much more accurate representation of physical lighting. All objects in ''Pikmin 3'' cast accurately shaped shadows, including the terrain itself. However, these shadows and lights do not follow the sun depicted in the sky; instead, shadows stay directly under objects for a majority of the day, so that object locations (particularly with airborne objects) can more easily be perceived. A new innovation ''Pikmin 3'' brings is that background shadows, while they are still large textures, actually ''do'' affect the shading of other objects, even as they sway throughout the day. This minor detail greatly enhances the realistic look of the environment.
"This is terrible! I have no more food left. I'm so hungry...At this rate, I might not even last long enough to reunite with Brittany..."


In caves, shadows are also directly under all objects. During rainy days, sunlight is generally darker, and rough surfaces have sharper highlights and smooth surfaces are glossy, to simulate wetness.
===Rock Pikmin discovered===
"The Onions fused into one! How intriguing... I wonder how they did that? I'd love to take a peek inside, if I ever get the chance."


Although no other lights in the game than sunlight cast shadows, almost all other light sources are dynamic. [[Electrode]]s highlight cave surfaces, leaders' beacons and whistles dimly illuminate a radius around them, and most lighting effects (such as [[bomb rock]] explosions) throw accurate light onto other objects. Once again, all these effects give ''Pikmin 3'' a photorealistic edge while still not seriously detracting from gameplay or visibility.
===First fruit discovered===
"Yesterday was an event worthy of celebration... I found my first piece of edible matter! I'm sure Brittany will be pleased! She might be quite surprised when she sees the Pikmin though..."

===First juice consumed===

==Materials==
===No juice left===
The [[Pikmin series]]'s in-game objects are made real-world materials, or at least materials similar to those in real life. As such, they try to emulate the interactions with light real-world materials would have. Although these properties are more often faked than accurately calculated, materials allow players a sense of how in-game objects would feel, which gives them more thematic identity. Below is a list of material properties simulated in Pikmin materials, and some prominent examples.
"This is bad... I don't have any food left on board. I hope I don't starve before I even meet up with Brittany..."


===Diffuse reflection===
===Brittany is stranded on Distant Tundra===
Diffuse surfaces have visibly or even microscopically rough imperfections, so that when light rays hit the surface, it bounce off in many directions instead of one, ''diffusing'' the illumination over a large area. Due to the limits of the GameCube's power, most organic objects in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'' (such as Pikmin and most enemies) have a smooth, matte-like material that does not reflect light sharply. In ''Pikmin 3'', materials meant to look rubbery, dirty, or skin-like will look diffuse.
"I can't shake the idea that the SS Drake's crash was my fault... Anyway, there's work to be done! First I need to reunite with Brittany, then we can look for the Captain."

B:"That's a good observation. You wouldn't have guessed it from their cute little faces. Come to think of it, Alph, you've been with the Red Pikmin since crash-landing here, right?"


A:"Yes, we've been through thick and thin together. I've grown rather fond of them!"


===Discussing pellets===
A:"The colour of the pellet carried back to the Onion seems to affect the number of Pikmin produced."


B:"Very observant of you, Alph! When Pikmin take a pellet of the same colour back to the Onion, it tends to fire out more seeds."


A:"I see... So as far as possible, we should use Red Pikmin to carry red pellets."


===Juice consumption===
A:"Um... I couldn't help but notice that you've been consuming quite a lot of juice, Brittany."


B:"What?! Nooo! Don't worry Alph! I'm dividing the portions up equally and only taking my fair share!"


A:"R-really? That's OK then. I know we can count on you, Brittany."


[[credits]]
B:"(Yikes! Looks like I'll have to be extra careful from now on...)
 
===Mentioning Charlie===
B:"We've lost someone very dear to us, our esteemed Captain Charlie."
 
A:"Don't say that! The Captain's still alive! I know he is!"
 
B:" Hee hee hee! Relax, Alph! You don't like anyone making fun of the Captain, do you?"
 
===Edible matter===
A:"Just like the SPERO probe reported, this planet is bursting with edible matter!"
 
B:" And it all has so much more nutritional value than anything back on Koppai. Everyone back on Koppai is in for a real treat!"
 
A:"Let's take back as much fruit as possible!"
 
===Oxygen on PNF-404===
A:"The plants and animals on this planet are huge!"
 
B:"The oxygen concentration in the atmosphere here is triple that of Koppai. Some studies have linked high oxygen concentration with gigantism in living creatures."
 
A:"That's amazing, Brittany! Good thing we have one of Koppai's top scientists on our team! But...does that mean if we stay here too long, we'll turn into giants too?!"
 
B:"No, our spacesuits will regulate the oxygen concentration for us, so we're probably fine. I'm not sure what would happen if we took them off though..."
 
===Reasons for joining the mission===
B:"Alph. Why did you want to be a part of this mission?"
 
A:"Because I wanted to meet the legendary ranger, Captain Charlie."
 
B:"Really? Is that the only reason? Not because you wanted to help save Koppai?"
 
A:"No, that too! But, you know, there are just too many legends out there about the Captain's heroism! I mean, there's the legend of Operation: Rubber Ducky Stuckie. And Operation: Rubber Ducky Up A Tree. Not to mention Operation: Beached Rubber Ducky."
 
B:"Well... I can see that you definitely did your research, Alph."
 
===The sunset===
A:"When the sun sets, we take to the relative safety of the air... I wonder what it's like on the surface at night?"
 
B:"I would think the nocturnal creatures might make it rather dangerous. We definitely wouldn't be able to sleep easily, that's for certain."
 
A:"Yes, you're probably right. I don't fancy ending up as a midnight snack for some ferocious beast!"
 
===Rock Pikmin===
B:"Rock Pikmin are stout, but their legs are surprisingly slender."
 
A:"Uh... I can't say I've looked at them in that way, but yeah... I suppose. Actually, they resemble the Captain, wouldn't you say?"
 
B:"That's a bit harsh! I think Rock Pikmin are rather cute."
 
===No juice left===
B:"I have some bad news. We're completely out of food. ( Maybe I shouldn't have eaten so much...)
 
A:"Really?! But we need to find the Captain..."
 
B:"Well, yes. But right now, finding food is more important!"
 
===A visitor from Hocotate===
A:"It would appear that the Hocotatians have visited this planet at some point."
 
B:"So they'd come all the way out to this far-away place just to look for treasure...?"
 
A:"Seems like the stories about them being incomparable treasure-lovers were true after all!"
 
B:"How nice for them... Spending their time on frivolous treasure-hunts while we're in the grip of a food crisis..."
 
===Hocotatian food===
A:"So, the data file we found recently was created by someone from Hocotate?"
 
B:"That's right. Apparently Hocotatians are vegetarians and eat nothing but vegetables. They're famous for their PikPik brand carrots. I tried them once, but they were utterly revolting."
 
A:"You? Ate vegetables? I can't believe it!"
 
B:"I did it in the name of science. But I don't think vegetables are really suited to the Koppaite palate."
 
A:"Still, if we could learn to like them, in the future we might not have to come all the way across the galaxy just to find food!"
 
===Pikmin classification===
A:"It seems for the most part Pikmin can't handle the water."
 
B:"Even though plants need water..."
 
A:"Meaning...whatever they are, Pikmin aren't exactly plants?
 
B:"Meaning... I'm not sure yet how we should classify these Pikmin."
 
===Treasure hunting===
A:"I'm surprised that there are Hocotatians on this planet. Are they here seeking treasure?"
 
B:"Possibly. I hear that Hocotate has a lot of people who make their living from treasure hunting."
 
A:"So we came here looking for a way to save our home planet...and they're here looking for treasure?"
 
B:"Yeah, all right for some, eh?"
 
===PikPik carrots===
A:"Hocotate... Hocotate...? That's the place with the Pikpik Carrots, right?"
 
B:"It certainly is! You know, the Pikmin actually look a lot like those Pikpik Carrots. In fact...that must be why the Hocotatian called them Pikmin! I can't believe I didn't realise!"
 
A:"Oh, I get it now. I'm not a big fan of vegetables though... And anyway, I certainly don't think I could ever eat a Pikpik Carrot now!"
 
===Defeated the Armoured Mawdad===
B:"Now that we've finished off that enormous creature, we can refocus our efforts on finding more fruit!"
 
A:"Um...perhaps we'd better go and retrieve the communications device it regurgitated first."
 
B:"Ew! It's probably covered in monster saliva and other vile goo."
 
A:"My engineer's instinct tells me that it would be worth taking it apart and having a look. We might be able to salvage some of these parts."
 
B:"I suppose so. Besides, if things get too yucky, we can split up and I can get on with something else."
 
===Nutritious food===
A:"The fruit on this planet is pretty tasty, isn't it?"
 
B:"Yes...and I think it might somehow be good for the skin too."
 
A:"That nutrient called Piktamin U, is that what's making your skin glow?"
 
B:"That's right, Alph! Aren't you observant?! So we'd better take as much fruit back to Koppai with us as we can!"
 
===Reunited with Brittany in the Distant Tundra===
A:"I'm so relieved you're OK, Brittany!"
 
B:"It was a close call. I'd never have been able to escape without those Yellow Pikmin."
 
A:"I know. We'd never have found each other that first time either without the help of the Pikmin."
 
B:"Once we've completed our mission here, we should throw a party for the Pikmin to thank them!"
 
===Yellow Pikmin===
B:"It makes sense that Yellow Pikmin can be thrown to high places."
 
A:"That's because they're so light."
 
B:"Right! However, I still don't get how they're shock resistant."
 
A:"That's been on my mind, too. Being an engineer, it's incredibly fascinating to me! Maybe those big ears of theirs distribute current in the air, acting as a ground..."
 
B:"No offence, but I sincerely doubt it."
 
===Worrying about Charlie===
B:"Alph? What's wrong?"
 
A:"Oh, it's the Captain... I just can't stop thinking about him."
 
B:"Come on now! Pull yourself together! The Captain wouldn't have wanted you to mope about! He'd have wanted us to soldier on for the good of Koppai. Let's make sure he didn't die in vain!"
 
A:"Um, hold on... Who said the Captain was dead?"
 
===Ultra-Spicy Spray===
B:"When you spray Pikmin with Ultra-Spicy Spray, they get really fired up."
 
A:"Pikmin in that state seem to move really fast, and their attack power is boosted too!"
 
B:"Hee hee, Maybe we should spray some of it on you, Alph!"
 
A:"Brittany! Don't joke about things like that!"
 
B:"(Too late! I've already tried spraying some on him.)"
 
===Pikmin stages===
B:"It looks like Pikmin left unplucked in the ground develop over time."
 
A:"That makes sense. After all, sleeping helps children grow!"
 
B:"It might be a good tactic to leave some Pikmin to develop before plucking them..."
 
A:"As long as we don't forget about them altogether!"
 
===lively flower Pikmin===
A:"The buds on Pikmin's heads can bloom into flowers. These flower Pikmin seem to be really lively."
 
B:"Maybe we can learn something from them. Maybe we just need to take time in order to bloom, too."
 
A:"Yeah! If we get too anxious, we should just nip that in the bud and everything will be coming up roses!"
 
B:"Uh-oh..."
 
A:"I'm not one for flowery speech, but we should stop beating around the bush, Brittany! Wait...I can't stop!"
 
B:"Alph! You're shaking like a leaf! Oh no... Now I'm doing it, too."
 
===Nectar===
A:"I wonder what's in the nectar those Pikmin were consuming."
 
B:"The nectar has enough nutrients to transform Pikmin into flowers. So it could contain a concentrated form of this planet's energy."
 
A:"That would be amazing! I wonder what it tastes like..."
 
B:"I tried it when no one was looking, but it was bitter."
 
A:"Really?! You weren't worried the nectar might be poisonous? (Now that's dedication for you!)"
 
===No juice left===
B:"I've got some good news and some bad news. Which would you like first?"
 
A:"OK... Tell me the bad news."
 
B:"We've run out of food."
 
A:"Oh no! Well what's the good news?"
 
B:"Umm... There isn't any, actually. I was just making that bit up."
 
A:"Brittany! This is bad! And we still need to find the Captain!"
 
B:"Well we'll never find the Captain if we starve to death first! We need to find some food ASAP!"
 
===Discovering the Vehemoth Phosbat===
B:"Can you believe that thing? It was the stuff of nightmares!"
 
A:"What's even stranger is that it was giving off the Captain's signal!"
 
B:"Typical! We leave the Captain unattended for five minutes, and he goes and turns into a giant shost moth!"
 
A:"Or...the Captain was swallowed by the giant ghost moth, perhaps?"
 
B:"(I have to admit, Alph's theory makes more sense...)"
