The {{ps}} takes place over several '''planets'''. Some of these planets have gameplay take place on them, while others have important roles in the [[Canon|story]]. Space travel between planets is a major part of the story of the series. All planets where alien explorers come from have names that reference Nintendo's history or places relevant to Nintendo.
{{stub}}{{image|Images of each planet mentioned.}}
There are a few planets in {{p3}} that aren't mentioned and are only seen in the game's [[cutscene#Pikmin 3|opening scene]], when the [[SPERO]]s are shown searching for food, and the planets besides [[PNF-404]] turn out to have nothing. They are purely aesthetic, and don't appear or are mentioned anywhere else in the game or series.


==Planets used for gameplay==
==List==
These planets are where gameplay takes place.
{{Game help|p3|List all planets.}}
 
===Asteroid planet===
===PNF-404===
This planet is quite curved and is shaped similarly to a potato. This may suggest that it is quite small, as small planets in real life often develop strange shapes because of a lack of gravity.
[[File:P3D World Map.jpg|thumb|250px|PNF-404, as seen in ''Pikmin 3''{{'s}} world map.]]
{{main|PNF-404}}
PNF-404 is the main planet of the ''Pikmin'' series. It is the setting of {{p1}}, {{p2}}, {{p3}}, and {{p4}} and also appears in the {{ssbs}}. It is heavily implied that this planet is actually Earth in the future.

===''Hey! Pikmin'' planet===
[[File:World map sector 3.jpg|thumb|150px|A view of part of the ''Hey! Pikmin'' planet from the [[sector selection menu]].]]
{{main|Hey! Pikmin planet}}
{{hp}} takes place on a separate planet to the main series, very similar to PNF-404, but with a different continental layout and different [[Enemy|creatures]]. Its official name is unknown.
 
{{clear}}
==Planets in the story==
These planets are never visited in gameplay, but are mentioned in various cutscenes and dialog. Excluding Hocotate and Koppai, they are listed in the order of the ID Cards section in ''Pikmin 4''.
 
===Hocotate===
[[File:Hocotate.png|thumb|200px|Hocotate as seen in the opening cutscene of {{p2}}.]]
{{main|Hocotate}}
Hocotate first appeared in {{p}}, and is the first planet other than [[PNF-404]] introduced to the series and has appeared in every game since to varying degrees. Its biggest appearance is in {{p2}}, where the opening cutscene showed the planet to have two rings around it and an orange coloration, with two moons. The surface of the planet is also shown in this cutscene, where it is depicted as an arid and sandy environment. The planet's name comes from the address of Nintendo's headquarters at Hokotate-cho in Kyoto.
 
The following characters are from Hocotate:
* [[Captain Olimar]]

{{Clear}}
 
===Koppai===
[[File:P3 Koppai.png|thumb|200px|Koppai as seen in the opening cutscene of {{p3}}.]]
{{main|Koppai}}
Koppai first appeared in {{p3}} where it is shown in the opening cutscene with one moon, however, the image used to depict Koppai in this shot is actually a slightly edited version of 'The Blue Marble', a NASA photograph of Earth.{{cite youtube|yV834uL04Ms|showing the similarity between Koppai and The Blue Marble|published={{date|10|May|2022}}|retrieved={{date|10|May|2022}}}} Although its surface is never shown, Alph makes comparisons to [[Tropical Wilds]] and [[Twilight River]]. Its gravity is described as being 10x that of [[PNF-404]] and its oxygen concentration is roughly one third of PNF-404's. The planet's name comes from Nintendo's original name, "Nintendo Koppai".

==Minor planets==
[[File:SPEROs.png|thumb|275px|Many different planets seen in {{p3}}'s opening scene, with [[Koppai]] in the center.]]
{{image|Closeups of each type of planet mentioned.}}
There are a few planets in {{p2}} and {{p3}} that aren't mentioned and are only seen in each game's opening scene, which both show shots of space. They are purely aesthetic, and don't appear or are mentioned anywhere else in the games or series. In ''Pikmin 3'', lots of these planets are nearly identical, but there are still distinguishable "types".
 
===''Pikmin 2''===
====Yellow planet====
This planet is large, yellow, and has three moons. Hocotate Freight is shown to have delivered supplies to it. The moons are colored green, orange, and blue.
 
===''Pikmin 3''===
====Spherical planets====
Most of these planets are perfectly rounded, pearly spheres, resembling the gas giants {{w|Uranus}} and Neptune. Others, seen in the [[Drake]]'s takeoff scene seem to have a more rocky texture. None of these planets have moons.
 
====Asteroid planets====
These planets are rigid and rocky, and might as well be asteroids. This may suggest that they are quite small, as small planets in real life often develop strange shapes because of a lack of gravity.
 
===''Pikmin 4''===
====Icebound planets====
Captain Olimar mentions "a few icebound planets" that he visited while delivering cargo in his notes for the [[Ice Sword]], which based on his apt description of the planets being "icebound", are probably completely covered in ice. Since Olimar mentions he had visited these planets while delivering cargo, it is likely that most of these are colonized and have life. Although unconfirmed, it is possible that these "icebound" planets actually correspond to some planet names revealed in ''Pikmin 4''.
