The '''Piklopedia''' is a feature in the {{p3d}} release of ''Pikmin 3''. It is an in-game collection of all of the [[enemies]] that the player has beaten so far. There is one entry per enemy, and inside each entry, the player can find a short video of the creature in action, [[#Comments|comments]] by the each of the [[leader]]s, a listing of its habitat (i.e. the [[area]]s where the player is most likely to find it), and a counter of how many of this creature have been killed, throughout all playthroughs of [[Story Mode]]. To open the Piklopedia, the player must open the [[KopPad]] in Story Mode, and then choose the Piklopedia's app. The Piklopedia is not available from the start of the game, and neither are the entries or the comments. For details on how all of these are unlocked, see [[#Unlocking|below]].

== Entries ==
There are a total of 55 entries. In-game, they are sorted by the order in which the player has unlocked them.

== Comments ==
[[Alph]], [[Brittany]], [[Captain Charlie]], [[Louie]], and [[Captain Olimar]] all have something to say about each entry.

* Alph's comments are based on his views as an engineer, and focus on the creature's design, strengths, and weaknesses. He starts his comments by listing a "design flaw" in the creature, which refers to a weakness that the player can use for their advantage when fighting against it. Next, he lists the corpse's weight, or "unknown" if not applicable. Finally, he gives his thoughts about how the creature functions, again, in a design-oriented way.
* Brittany's comments are usually about the creature's appearance or habits, and how she might be able to use them, or how she could learn from them. Occasionally, she'll go into detail about the more floral aspects of the creatures, given she's a botanist.
* Charlie's comments are normally about fighting the creature. He gives tips on how to attack, or just quips about the enemy's combat strengths and weaknesses.
* Louie's notes are about how to best cook the creature in order to savor it, much like their ''Pikmin 2'' [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]] counterpart.
* Olimar's notes start by specifying the enemy's name, then its scientific name, then its family. Then, he goes into detail about how the creature functions biologically, its quirks and interesting aspects, its lifestyle habits, and so on. Again, these follow their presentation from ''Pikmin 2''. 

For enemies that were in {{p2}}, Louie's notes and Olimar's notes on them are very similar, if not exactly the same as their ''Pikmin 2'' [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]] counterpart.

== Unlocking ==
{{game help|p3d|List the requirements for unlocking the Piklopedia proper. Also, figure out if Olimar's comments become available in all Story Mode save files.}}

Most entries are unlocked by killing and retrieving the enemy, but some have different rules, because their corpses cannot be brought to the Onion. The table [[#Entries|above]] lists each enemy's requirements. Entries can only be unlocked by performing the requirements in [[Story Mode]].

The comments for each leader are unlocked at different times:
* [[Alph]]'s comments (and the Piklopedia in general) become available at the start of [[day]] 2 after observing the Onion in the landing site.
* [[Brittany]]'s comments become available when the player frees her in the [[Garden of Hope]].
* [[Charlie]]'s comments become available when the player rescues him from the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]].
* [[Louie]]'s comments become available when the player rescues him from the [[Quaggled Mireclops]].
* [[Olimar]]'s comments become available when the player rescues him from the [[Plasm Wraith]].

==Trivia==
*It is not possible to see an empty Piklopedia, as the ability to view it is unlocked during day 2, and it is impossible to complete day 1 without defeating and carrying at least 3 [[Female Sheargrub]]s.
