Editing Pikmin 4 voyage log

{{game help|p4}}

 

Olimar's logs are generally unlocked within the first four [[area]]s ([[Sun-Speckled Terrace]], [[Blossoming Arcadia]], [[Serene Shores]], and [[Hero's Hideaway]]), while Louie's logs are generally unlocked in the final two areas ([[Giant's Hearth]] and [[Primordial Thicket]]). Regardless, once all castaways are [[castaway|rescued]], all logs become unlocked automatically.

{{transcript|I had barely begun my search when a strange thing reared up as if it were waiting for me. It then dropped a single seed. It resembles a vegetable on my home planet called an onion. I shall call it an {{color|Onion|orange}} too. Its sprout glows and sways as if inviting me to come closer.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': After discovering the Onion on the first day.

{{transcript|A fascinating creature emerged when I plucked the sprout! I tried to put some distance between us, but it followed me close behind. It seems quite friendly and looks similar to a Pikpik Carrot, my favorite vegetable. I'll call it a "{{color|Pikmin|orange}}."|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': After plucking a Pikmin on the first day.

{{transcript|The seedlike thing I harvested from that flower must be some kind of food that propagates Pikmin. I will call these condensed nutrients "{{color|pellets|orange}}" and the plant a "{{color|Pellet Posy|orange}}."|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Destroy a [[Pellet Posy]].

{{transcript|As evening fell, the Pikmin climbed back up into the Onion and took to the skies alongside the S.S. Dolphin. Astonishing! The Onion must be both a {{color|nest|orange}} and a {{color|form of transportation|orange}}!|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': End the first day.

{{transcript|The Onion stopped releasing seeds! I went to check on it and saw that the Pikmin {{color|will only propagate inside the Onion once a certain number|orange}} are out on the surface. Could Limiting the number of active Pikmin be a strategy to avoid extinction?|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Cultivate more Pikmin than can actually be on the surface.

{{transcript|{{color|Wild Pikmin|orange}} found underground can be brought to the surface and added to an Onion. However, when tasked with transporting a pellet, the resulting seed ends up the same color as the Onion. I must be careful, as these Pikmin {{color|cannot be propagated|orange}} right now.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Collect Pikmin outside of your squad inside a [[cave]].

{{transcript|When I brought some wild Pikmin found in a cave up to the surface, not all the Pikmin exited the research pod. There must be a {{color|limit on how many Pikmin can be out on the surface at a time|orange}}, and it seems there can be {{color|3 types at most|orange}}. The rest I'll return to the Onion.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Exit a cave with either more than the max Pikmin limit or more than 3 different types.

{{transcript|I've noticed that when they consume {{color|nectar|orange}}, a flower immediately blooms on a Pikmin's head. Yet, when they mature in the ground from a sprout, their leaf becomes a bud before a flower. Either way, the more they grow, the {{color|faster Pikmin become|orange}}. That could be useful...|block=y}}

{{transcript|By working together, Pikmin can carry objects much heavier than themselves. And if you increase the number of Pikmin doing the transporting, they will {{color|transport objects even faster|orange}}! Just think how much our kind could learn from this cooperative species.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''':  

{{transcript|After closely observing the Pikmin carrying their prey to the Onion, I saw that the next seeds the Onion dropped were the {{color|same type as the majority of the Pikmin|orange}} that did the transporting. How fascinating that Pikmin ecology employs a concept like {{color|majority rule|orange}}!|block=y}}

{{transcript|Whenever their underlings are in a bad spot, it's a leader's duty to remain calm, quickly assess the situation, and form a plan of action. For example, when the Pikmin are in trouble and start to panic, {{color|I calm them and reengage their focus using my whistle|orange}}.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': After a Pikmin is affected by a [[hazard]] that can be whistled away.

{{transcript|It was eerily quiet earlier, and I turned around to see the Pikmin were all just standing there, trembling! Perhaps the {{color|cold temperature|orange}} put them in that state, because even the sound of my whistle only briefly  alleviated the issue. I must get to the root of this...|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': After a Pikmin is affected by the ambient cold temperature in a cave.

{{transcript|How alarming! For some undiscernible reason, the Pikmin won't look at me! Even when I call them with my whistle! They always gladly followed me until now... Have they {{color|lost their senses|orange}}? I must do something to get them back on my side.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': After a Pikmin is confused by the [[Groovy Long Legs]]' or [[Puffstool]]'s gas.

{{transcript|I got careless...and all the Pikmin perished as a result. Horrified, I made my way back to the base, only to find that the Onion had released {{color|1 Pikmin seed|orange}}! This behavior likely developed to prevent extinction. I've sworn to take better care next time. Cross my heart.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Experience a [[Pikmin extinction]].

{{transcript|Fire should be a natural enemy of the Pikmin, but {{color|Red Pikmin continue through the flames|orange}} where other Pikmin would burn... Their {{color|attacks are also a little bit stronger|orange}} than those of the other Pikmin. Could these qualities be somehow related?|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Discover [[Red Pikmin]].

{{transcript|I've decided to call the yellow-colored Pikmin with large earlike appendages "{{color|Yellow Pikmin|orange}}." I liked that name a lot more than Ear Pikmin. They're {{color|resistant to electricity|orange}}, and they {{color|fly high|orange}} when thrown. Plus, they're {{color|good at digging|orange}}!|block=y}}

{{transcript|At a glance, the {{color|Blue Pikmin|orange}} appear to have mouthlike gills and are notably able to function even underwater. Thanks to their {{color|water resistance|orange}} and {{color|swimming talents|orange}}, I can now transport things found in the water.|block=y}}

{{transcript|I always thought of Pikmin as plantlike creatures, so I never dreamed I'd come across an ice variant! {{color|Ice Pikmin|orange}} can use their icy bodies to {{color|freeze water and creatures|orange}}, but they also {{color|float|orange}} like ice {{color|in the water|orange}}. Don't spray them with water though. They really don't like it.|block=y}}

{{transcript|Ah, the hard, rocky {{color|Rock Pikmin|orange}}. They {{color|break crystal walls|orange}} with their stout bodies and tough headbutts, {{color|survive being stepped on|orange}}, and {{color|can't be pierced|orange}} by needles. Despite their sturdiness, they can still be crushed on hard surfaces of by some creatures' teeth.|block=y}}

{{transcript|As their name suggests, {{color|Winged Pikmin|orange}} have sprouted wings and can {{color|fly|orange}}. Of course, this means they can transport things by air and {{color|can save time|orange}} that way. Their ground attacks are lackluster, but when it comes to aerial combat, they're unmatched.|block=y}}

{{transcript|One {{color|Purple Pikmin|orange}} has the {{color|strength and weight of 10|orange}} regular Pikmin. What they lack in speed, they make up for in force! {{color|When thrown, their impact|orange}} is powerful enough to emit gravitational waves. They're only found underground, so I must handle with care.|block=y}}

{{transcript|Rare {{color|White Pikmin|orange}} come from white Candypop Buds that bloom in caves. They're small and notably {{color|fast on their feet|orange}}, but their attacks are lacking. Imbued with enough {{color|poison|orange}} to be lethal to a Bulborb, these wily Pikmin are {{color|resistant to poisonous gas|orange}} themselves.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''':  

{{transcript|When an Onion absorbs this whitish bulb, it seems to perk up and {{color|increases|orange}} the Pikmin you can lead by {{color|10|orange}}. The scent reminds me of the garlic on my planet. I'm tempted to have a nibble, but for now I'll just call it "{{color|flarlic|orange}}" and leave the taste test for another day.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Bring a Flarlic to the S.S. Beagle.

{{transcript|After being transported, the new Onion I found was absorbed by the first Onion! Could this be cannibalism?! I investigated the matter, and it looks like a {{color|new type of Pikmin can now be withdrawn|orange}} from the Onion. This must mean that Onions can {{color|fuse|orange}} together.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Find and combine two Onions together.

{{transcript|I found another Onion the same color as a previously fused Onion but it transported anyway. When fed to the other Onion, {{color|20|orange}} Pikmin seeds of its color {{color|were propagated|orange}}! Absorbing one of your own species for nutrients is a horrifying yet impressive power move.|block=y}}

{{transcript|As we approached the giant flower, the Pikmin looked at me as though begging to be thrown inside. So I tried it, and with a POP the {{color|flower released a Pikmin seed the same color as itself|orange}}. The sound reminded me of my favorite candy, so I'll call it a "{{color|Candypop Bud|orange}}."|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Discover a [[Candypop family|candypop bud]].

{{transcript|Upon closer inspection, I was shocked to discover that an Ultra-Spicy Berry contains a large quantity of {{color|ultra-spicy essence|orange}}! I've collected {{color|1 bottle's worth of nectar from 10 berries|orange}}, but what do I do with it? This stuff is way too hot for us sweet-toothed Hocotatians.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Bring 10 Ultra-Spicy berries to the S.S. Beagle.

{{transcript|On rare occasions, a red nectar will emerge from nectar eggs, and it contains quite a lot of {{color|ultra-spicy essence|orange}}! Considering that it hold {{color|10 Ultra-Spicy Berries' worth|orange}} of it, I'm not surprised I'm already sweating. I'll have to bottle this up with extreme caution.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Find [[Ultra-spicy spray|ultra-spicy nectar]].

{{transcript|The Pikmin and {{color|Moss|#aa0}} were sprayed with Ultra-Spicy Spray today. I quickly ran to clear it off, but when I saw that their {{color|movement had become animated|orange}} and that the Pikmin's {{color|flowers had bloomed|orange}}, I realized the spray must be a source of energy for these species!|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Use [[Ultra-spicy spray]].

{{transcript|After Thorough investigation into the shiny objects found on this planet, I have deduced that they must contain {{color|sparklium|orange}}. I feel giddy to have found real-life {{color|treasure|orange}}, but my focus must remain on my main objective—finding the missing parts of the S.S. Dolphin.|block=y}}

{{transcript|One could mistake this {{color|raw material|orange}} for a simple stone, but it has more in common with amber and other fossilized biological matter. When heated, it melts down intoa brown clay and becomes malleable. I should be able to find many applications for it.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Find a piece of [[raw material]].

{{transcript|Battling creatures on this planet is hard work, but it would be a lot easier if they didn't move so much. That's why I plan to {{color|freeze|orange}} them with Ice Pikmin or an Ice Blast! Then I'll charge them all at once. If I can freeze the flying kind in midair, I'll strike once they fall!|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Freeze an enemy with Ice Pikmin or an Ice Blast.

{{transcript|Harnessing fire is the cornerstone of civilization. With a {{color|fire starter|orange}}, you can {{color|burn things|orange}} or {{color|create warmth|orange}}. I could also use it to build fires in other areas, as long as I light them before the fire starter itself goes out.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': After a Pikmin picks up a fire starter.

{{transcript|I’ve often heard the saying “Don’t push it, pull it!” But I might like “Don’t hit it, tug it!” even better. I have a theory that I could use the suction mechanism used for collecting ship parts to {{color|knock a breadbug’s head into the ship’s hull|orange}}. That’d do some damage.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Defeat a [[Breadbug]].

{{transcript|Upon returning to the surface after exploring underground, I noticed the hands of my clock had barely moved at all, and I had been down there for hours! I can only assume that on this planet, {{color|time flows differently|orange}} on the surface than it does underground.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Enter a cave for the first time.

{{transcript|Many creatures become more active at night, so Pikmin left on the surface are doomed to be eaten. {{color|If you're close to the Onion, you can return them safely inside.|orange}} Stray Pikmin, on the other hand... I must remember to {{color|call them back to the squad|orange}} before sunset.|block=y}}

{{transcript|I was sure I had scoured {{color|100%|orange}} of a cave before returning to the surface, only to casually reenter it and find it {{color|teeming with the creatures I thought I had defeated|orange}}! Or perhaps others of their kind have claimed this territory. The underground bursts with life!|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Re-enter a cave after 100% completing it.

{{transcript|Bomb Rocks show no signs of working against this creature, never mind Pikmin attacks! Does its {{color|body not actually exist|orange}} in this dimension? Maybe if I hit it with a gravitational wave, the dimensions will converge and it will show itself. But is that possible?|block=y}}

{{transcript|I entered a cave to look for S.S Dolphin parts and found a creature that defies the logic of space! it further surprised me by expelling frigid-cold air. Imagine if there were {{color|Pikmin that had been acclimatized to that cold air|orange}}... This planet's ecosystem is full of mysteries.|block=y}}

{{transcript|I was feeling hotter than usual in my space suit, and when I looked down, the ground was on fire! I panicked, but a {{color|Red Pikmin|orange}} just gave me a sidelong glance, {{color|totally unfazed even as the fire licked at them|orange}}. They're clearly capable of more than just skillful attacks.|block=y}}

{{transcript|I found a {{color|hole that should lead out to the top of the mountain|orange}}, but the inside was more convoluted than expected, and only now do I see light at the end of the tunnel. If I ever make it out of this place, I'll deserve a good rest.|block=y}}

{{transcript|The ground...it started moving! I groped for a way forward, but {{color|I couldn't make any progress on my own|orange}}. I wonder if {{color|Moss|#aa0}} may be able to {{color|help|orange}} me out of this mess.|block=y}}

{{transcript|Someone or something built a rough wall inside the cave. The Pikmin and I were able to scramble up, but {{color|Moss|#aa0}} was {{color|unable to climb up the wall|orange}}. I'll have to leave her behind for now and hope we can find a way or a place to {{color|meet up|orange}}.|block=y}}

{{transcript|Beneath the passage, all I can see is an {{color|interminable darkness|orange}}. I tossed a pebble into the abyss but never heard it hit the ground. I must proceed with caution here. I don't want any Pikmin accidentally thrown to their demise, let alone shaken off by some creature.|block=y}}

{{transcript|In the natural world, there are many example of strategic {{color|mimicry|orange}}, where one lulls their prey into perceived safety…but I never thought I would witness it firsthand! I now know danger can lurk in even the jiggliest places.|block=y}}

{{transcript|A {{color|cave of utter darkness|orange}} into which almost no light filters. I explored for a bit, relying on the glowing mushrooms to guide the way, but I turned back to avoid unnecessary risk. I wish I had a better {{color|Headlamp|orange}} at my disposal. I’m starting to regret this bargain buy.|block=y}}

{{transcript|Many types of {{color|Bulblax|orange}} have settled in this cave. Perhaps they’re empire... To them, I’m just a foreign invader that must be eradicated. If the danger becomes unavoidable, I’ll need to rely on some of the items I brought with me.|block=y}}

{{transcript|What beautiful scenery! When I'm surrounded by water, I can't help but feel at one with the sea. Sadly, there {{color|aren't many places to land in here|orange}}, so nonswimming Pikmin aren't able to do much. At least I got to pretend I was on vacation for a little while, right?|block=y}}

{{transcript|The temperature keeps dropping the further I dive underground. It's as if I'm in a sauna, but the air is stiflingly cold instead of hot. My space suit protects me, but the Pikmin keep shivering. I wonder if there's a way I could {{color|warm them up|orange}} down here...|block=y}}

{{transcript|While traversing the darkness, I  came upon a delightful yet nostalgic object of mystery! Powerful streams of light, nonstop beats that assault the senses, a haze of smoke and music, and {{color|dancing Pikmin|orange}}! It's like being back in the discotheques of my youth!|block=y}}

{{transcript|Shortly into my explorations, a loud BANG echoed throughout the cave. My memory's been clouded by fear, but I do recall that {{color|there was nothing I could do with the Blue Pikmin|orange}} I'd brought with me, and I ran away in desperation. The rest is a mystery...|block=y}}

{{transcript|I keep commanding {{color|Moss|#aa0}} to follow a scent, and she keeps leading me completely off track! There must be some {{color|creature|orange}} down here emitting an unusual smell that can {{color|trick|orange}} not just {{color|Moss|#aa0}} and the Pikmin but my sensors too! What a deceptive ecosystem...|block=y}}

{{transcript|The flaming entrance was so hot, I never could have made my way in without a {{color|Scorch Guard|orange}}. The true surprise was that once I got further into the cave, it was like {{color|walking into a cold refrigerator|orange}}. Hopefully the Red Pikmin, {{color|Moss|#aa0}}, and I get through this...|block=y}}

{{transcript|Everywhere I look in this cave reminds me of home. Playing together with the children. Sitting around the table, sharing a meal as a family...as the {{color|dog pilfers my side dish|orange}}. Just that humdrum, routine, irreplaceable everyday life.|block=y}}

{{transcript|I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a space dog like {{color|Moss|#aa0}} before. First of all, she’s huge, but she also has an adorable {{color|leaf|orange}} at the top of her tail. She seems to get on quite well with the Pikmin. I can’t help but wonder if there’s some kind of connection between them.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''':(please add)

{{transcript|After training {{color|Moss|#aa0}} to track a variety of scents, she can now not only sniff out the missing parts of the S.S. Dolphin but also {{color|Pikmin of whatever type I specify|orange}} and even {{color|stray Pikmin|orange}}. She's already proving to be a trusty partner.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Rescue [[Russ]].

{{transcript|{{color|Moss|#aa0}} has shown herself to be a very talented swimmer. She can {{color|transport nonswimming Pikmin|orange}} across the water by carrying them on her back. To be honest, she could probably teach me a thing or two. I can't even swim in space if I don't have my favorite space float.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''':  

'''How to unlock''':  

'''How to unlock''':  

{{transcript|I keep coming across {{color|ruins of some sort...rings made of stones|orange}}. I've been using them as a base to land on, and the more I think about it, they seem to be designed exactly for that purpose! Could it be a coincidence? I'd like to know who made them in the first place.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''':  

{{transcript|The atmosphere on this planet contains large amounts of {{color|poisonous oxygen|orange}}. I doubt that my space suit's life-support system can hold out for more than a few days now. Maybe if I had a {{color|leaf|orange}}, like {{color|Moss|#aa0}} or the Pikmin... What a silly thought.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Discover a Leafling.

{{transcript|This area is blooming with radiant blossoms. I recall how, in the spring, I would go for a stroll just to enjoy the flower in my neighborhood on Planet Hocotate. Imagining my dog frolicking underneath the falling petals seemed to put my troubled mind at ease.|block=y}}

{{transcript|I had a horrific dream last night. After I met my doom facing off against a creature, the Pikmin carried me back to their Onion. I've often thought that we might share a powerful bond, but perhaps thatwas only wishful thinking.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''':  

'''How to unlock''':  

{{transcript|At long last, my goal to collect all lost S.S. Dolphin parts is nearly complete. According to the ship's radar, the remaining pieces are {{color|inside a giant structure|orange}}... My life support system is reaching its limit. One last push now.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''':  

{{transcript|I'm so close to fully repairing the S.S. Dolphin. The remaining parts should be somewhere inside this giant structure that I've never seen before. It's as if the {{color|rules of logic I've come to understand may not apply|orange}} here. I'll have to explore carefully now...|block=y}}

{{transcript|When I arrived at this area, the Pikmin started acting quite strange. They flew out of the Onion and immediately {{color|hid|orange}}! I can't find my spaceship parts without them... I suppose I'll just keep looking for them and can {{color|call them back|orange}} using my whistle.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': Whistle the first group of Pikmin the Olimar prologue.

{{transcript|I've noticed that there are several items labeled with a {{color|strange code|orange}} strewn about this area. I'm not quite sure what they are to be used for, but I should take thorough notes in case it becomes obvious later.|block=y}}

{{transcript|I found a {{color|bunker|orange}} inside the building! Thankfully, the entrance has a lock, so unwanted creatures won't be able to get in. I can rest easy now, knowing that I have a safe place to go if I get stranded here on this planet.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock''': [[Pikmin 4 player character|The player]] encounters Moss in the Hero's Hideaway.

{{transcript|I filled my belly with all kinds of snacks. The strongest creatures are the tastiest. Except that {{color|ultimate weapon|orange}}-like one. It was barely edible.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock:''' Discover the [[Ultimate Testing Range]].

{{transcript|I see a lot of places to mess around down here. Wouldn't be a bad place to live. I hid all my snacks in a box, but I forgot the {{color|code I need to open it|orange}}.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock:''' Discover the [[Dream Home]].

{{transcript|{{color|So many creatures came toward me at once|orange}}, it was like an all-you-can-eat buffet. My belly's so full. I couldn't eat another bite.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock:''' Discover the [[Cradle of the Beast]].

{{transcript|Got stuck in the {{color|bottomless swamp|orange}}. Some parts of it were pitch-black. And now I'm covered in mud. Reminded me of the mountain behind Nana's house.|block=y}}

{{transcript|Spotted a {{color|huge dog|orange}} thing in the mushroom forest. I like the one I have now, but that one looks more fun. Guess I'll follow it.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock:''' (Please add)

{{transcript|Found the huge dog thing near the {{color|large rock at the back of the swamp|orange}}. It had something in its mouth. It was that {{color|pink person|orange}} who had the yummy juice. She's getting in the way. I'll just drop her somewhere.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock:''' Obtained the morning after rescuing Nelle.

{{transcript|Finally tamed that huge dog thing. I’m gonna lie down now for a while in its den. It’s really {{color|deep|orange}}, and there are {{color|plenty|orange}} of snacks. The others will give up and go home.|block=y}}

'''How to unlock:''' Discover the [[Cavern for a King]].

{{transcript|My favourite thing in all of space to eat but hard to come by. If I did find some, Id’s devour them all to my heart’s content. I’m just waiting for the right delivery job...|block=y}}

'''How to unlock:''' Obtained by saving louie (I might be wrong)
