Editing Pikmin Park

'''Pikmin Park''' ({{j|広場|Hiroba|open space}}) is a feature in {{hp}}. It is a place where gathered [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] can play around and be safe, but it is also the source of some [[Sparklium]]. This Sparklium, be it in the form of [[treasure]]s or bundles of Sparklium Seeds, is hidden beneath clutter in the park, which can be cleaned up by the Pikmin in the park. Some of the rubble has a specific [[hazard]], meaning only certain types of Pikmin can clear it. The more Pikmin there are cleaning something, the faster it gets done, but progress is only made when an [[area]] is completed (whether it's the first time completing the area or not), even if that progress does not result in anything yet. The Park is also where the [[S.S. Dolphin II]] crash-lands and stays, meaning it is the rendezvous point for Olimar and the ship's pod after an [[area]] is completed.

Pikmin will only clean up grass if there is nothing else they can clean instead in that section. In addition, if the Onion and ship hangout section is empty, there is a chance that a [[Coppeller]] carrying a Sparklium Seed will appear there, as detailed [[#Central Pikmin Park|here]].

This is the location where the [[S.S. Dolphin II]] crash-landed, and where the [[Onion]] is. When a new type of Pikmin is added to the park, it ends up here. Groups of Pikmin that manage to uncover something will also return to this section. If it does not have any Pikmin in it, there is a chance that a [[Coppeller]] carrying a yellow, red, or rainbow [[Sparklium Seed]] will show up. Ordering some Pikmin to this section will make the creature drop what it is carrying, and will award the player with it.

When the Pikmin clear up the second or third patch of grass in Pikmin Park Entrance ("Central Pikmin Park" in the European version), they uncover a stash of [[Sparklium Seeds]], worth {{sparklium|hp|30}} in total.

After the entire park is cleaned out, caches of Sparklium Seeds will sometimes appear in a random section of the park when the player completes an area. To collect these, the player simply needs to order a Pikmin group to that section. Each of these caches adds {{sparklium|hp|10}}, or {{sparklium|hp|30}}. You may also find a [[Coppeller]] with a random [[sparklium Seed]] in the main section, as explained [[#Central Pikmin Park|here]].

The Pikmin Park is accessed through the [[sector selection menu]], through the [[area selection menu]], or through the [[area results menu]].

The park is divided into sections, which become available with time. Tapping on a section on the bottom screen will show it on the top screen. Each section has its own clutter. The player does not order individual Pikmin, but orders an entire group instead, consisted of Pikmin of the same type. The player also does not directly order them to work on tasks, but instead, tells them where to go. If they enter an area with something to clean up, they will begin doing so, forming an orderly line, and, one by one, jumping into the clutter, taking part of it, and jumping back out. However, if there's nothing they can do, they just idle on that part of the park. Besides cleaning up clutter, they can also shoo away [[Coppeller]]s, when they appear on the [[#Central Pikmin Park|main section]] of the park.

On the bottom screen, there is a blue band on the left that lists the number of Pikmin of each type available in the park. The bottom-left corner has a button to return to the [[area selection menu]], and the button on the bottom-right allows the player to manage their [[Pikmin amiibo]]'s level. The rest of the bottom screen shows a top-down map of the park. The player can tap the different sections here to go there. Each Pikmin type has an icon, and its location represents where that type is in the park right now. Tapping the icon and then a section will make the Pikmin go there. If the Pikmin have to head to the section that is already on-camera, the player gets to see them come up one by one to start the task or to idle, but if not, when the player chooses that section, they'll already spot the Pikmin at work or relaxing.

Pikmin in the park frolic around when they're idle, by either jumping in place, walking around, or running left and right. If they're tasked to work, they try their hardest to form an orderly line, so they can do take apart an object one by one. They sometimes [[trip]] down, which slows down the line, but this is only aesthetic.

* If the game is shut off after the completion of [[First Expedition]], but before the [[area selection menu]] of [[Brilliant Garden]] is entered, i.e. before the player finishes the Pikmin Park tutorial, the next time the player boots the game up and chooses the save file, they will be taken to the area selection menu, and the ship will tell them how the Pikmin have been placed on the Pikmin Park, inviting Olimar to take a look. If the player checks now, the Pikmin Park tutorial will play back again from scratch. However, the player is not forced to enter the Park, meaning they can skip the tutorial.

* The texture used for the floor in ''Pikmin''{{'s}} debug [[animtest|animation viewer]] coincidentally is a checkerboard pattern with the words "piki park" written all over.
