To note is that almost all enemies have a <code>lockon.txt</code> file that determines how the [[lock-on]] works. All used enemies use version 5 of the file format, but some unused enemies use versions 0 or 1. In addition, there is a block of health-related parameters, and it too has a format version. Used enemies use version 8.

File:TCRF.png

This article or section is a short summary on unused content in Pikmin 3.
The Cutting Room Floor features more in-depth content.

The following article or section is in need of assistance from someone who plays Pikmin 3 Deluxe.
Particularly: Record the discovered Pikmin 2-like early models found in the demo's files.

To do: Obtain better screenshots of NamaPongashi's model and other unused objects, and document the unused behaviors of Armored Cannon Larva variants. There are also unused objects that exist in the code but are not listed here.
Care to do so?

Pikmin 3 has a substantial amount of content in its files that goes completely unused, ranging from textures, enemies, and sound files.

Unused textures

There are quite a few unused and unseen textures that are unrelated to unused models in Pikmin 3.

Character icons

To do: Confirm if Olimar's "happy" icon, Louie's "happy" icon, and Louie's "sad" icon are unused. Also, find out if Olimar and Louie's icons were in the game, unused, before DLC pack 3 (which features them). Also, check if the icons found in the demo of Pikmin 3 Deluxe are also in the final game's files.
Care to do so?

There are several unused icons for expressions from Olimar, Louie, and, in Pikmin 3 Deluxe, the President. They are listed here:

Icon Description
Olimar's mad icon in Pikmin 3. Olimar's "mad" icon.
Louie's mad icon in Pikmin 3. Louie's "mad" icon.
The President's happy icon in Pikmin 3 Deluxe. The President's "happy" icon.
The President's mad icon in Pikmin 3 Deluxe. The President's "mad" icon.
The President's shocked icon in Pikmin 3 Deluxe. The President's "shocked" icon.

Additionally, there is an equally unused version of Olimar's "mad" icon, with a cropped circle in the top-left. The icon character is called playerF internally, where Olimar is playerE and the President's icons refer to him as playerG.

  • The unused blue icon.

    The unused blue icon.

Unused mini radar icons

In the demo of Pikmin 3 Deluxe, there are unused icons for Olimar, Louie, and a SPERO on the mini radar, but go unused due to it not being included in the Side Stories.

  • Olimar's icon.

    Olimar's icon.

  • Louie's icon.

    Louie's icon.

  • A SPERO's icon.

    A SPERO's icon.

Ship part icon placeholders

In the demo of Pikmin 3 Deluxe, a couple ship part icons are instead placeholders, being red circles with the respective parts' names in white Japanese text.

Badge placeholders

In Pikmin 3 Deluxe, there are several unused badge textures that appear to be placeholders, starting from 1 to 50.

  • An example of one of these badges, with a "1".

    An example of one of these badges, with a "1".

Unseen geography

The texture used for PNF-404 in the area selection menu. Parts of this image are unused content, since only the lower part of the image is seen in-game.
The entire texture of PNF-404. The top half and some parts near the edges are completely unseen in-game.

Although the front of PNF-404 in the area selection screen is visible, there are details on the back of the planet that are completely hidden and unused. This unseen geography can only be viewed by looking at its direct texture.

Unused enemies

Nearly all the following enemy data can be found in the /content/CMCmn/enemy, referring to unused enemies.

To note is that almost all enemies have a lockon.txt file that determines how the lock-on works. All used enemies use version 5 of the file format, but some unused enemies use versions 0 or 1. In addition, there is a block of health-related parameters, and it too has a format version. Used enemies use version 8.

Pikmin 2 copies

The following unused enemies exist in the enemies folder, but their model and textures are copies or near-copies of the Pikmin 2 files. They are also roughly the same size they were in that game.

Honeywisp
  • It functions identically to its Pikmin 2 counterpart, but despite the textures being the same, it looks more realistic in Pikmin 3. The egg it carries is the same as the regular Pikmin 3 eggs. The only known thing about its behavior is that it flies around and eventually vanishes.[1] Throwing a Pikmin at the egg results in a crash.
  • It has an ai.txt file found only in some other unused enemies' data and on the Armored Cannon Larva's data, where it's also presumably unused.
  • It is missing a cull_info.txt, dynamics.txt, and a lockon.txt file, present in most other enemies' data.
  • The lock-on data's format version is 6.

This enemy's data is missing several files: anim_define.txt, cull_info.txt, dynamics.txt, lockon.txt, and params.txt. In addition, it has a panmodoki.txt file which is just a copy of coll_tree.txt. Because of this, no parameter information is known about it.

Early Whiptongue Bulborb

To do: Find out its internal name, and if it has any parameter data.
Care to do so?

An early version of the Whiptongue Bulborb found in Pikmin 3 Deluxe's files.
The early Whiptongue Bulborb.

In Pikmin 3 Deluxe, an early version of the Whiptongue Bulborb can be found in the files. It has 11 animations: attack, attack2 (attacking), dead (dying), flick (shaking off Pikmin), move1 (walking), swallow (swallowing), type5 (being carried), wait1, wait2, wait3 (idling), and waitact (shaking off Pikmin while idling).[3]

Armored Cannon Larva variants

The Armored Cannon Larva and Arctic Cannon Larva share the same archive. Inside it are parameter files for every version of the beetle, including unused ones. params.txt is the one used for the Armored Cannon Larva, and params_yuki.txt corresponds to the Arctic Cannon Larva (ゆき? means snow). The unused files are called params_fixed.txt, params_green.txt, params_red.txt (perhaps for the Decorated Cannon Beetle), and params_ruri.txt (るり? means Lapis Lazuli).

kakureimo

kakureimo.

kakureimo is a fat leech-like enemy. It has a purple body, yellow stomach along with yellow back stripes, and three green eyes on each side of its small head. Its mouth is circular and filled with jagged teeth, and it has two large antennae on its head. Size-wise, it's around the size of a Red Bulborb. 隠れ? is the stem of the verb 隠れる? which means "to hide", and いも? translates to "potato", although it is also part of the word イモムシ? (lit.: "caterpillar").

When it spawns, it pops out from underneath the ground. When there are no Pikmin or leaders nearby, it waddles around to explore a small area immediately outside of its "home" , but if one gets into view, it becomes alarmed and dashes to its original spot, where it burrows underground. After being left alone for a bit, it will reemerge and repeat the cycle. Given unknown rules, it may decide to stay underground until it's left alone, or it will cautiously poke its head out to survey the area. When it burrows, its health is entirely restored. Other than that, some parts of the enemy are unfinished, in that it has no particle effects, some animations are a bit jerky, and parts of its logic are missing, in that Pikmin can latch on to it while it buries and continue to attack it, even through the ground.[4]

Given how it acts the same as the moguraimo, it has a similar name to it, and sports a similar color scheme, it's safe to say that the two creatures are somehow related.

From analysis of the game files, the following can be concluded:

  • It has animations for dying, burrowing, moving, biting, chewing prey, swallowing prey, being carried, noticing prey, chasing prey, looking around, going to its original spot, and three unknown animations: lookout, lookin, and sense.
  • The lock-on data's format version is 0, and the health parameter data's format version is 2.
  • It is missing a cull_info.txt and dynamics.txt file, present in most other enemies' data.
  • It has the ability to drop nectar upon death.

moguraimo

moguraimo.

This creature bears a strong resemblance to the Ravenous Whiskerpillar from Pikmin 2. The internal name, however, is quite different: it used to be imomushi (イモムシ? (lit.: "caterpillar")), but is now moguraimo (モグライモ? (lit.: "mole potato")). Appearance-wise, it is slightly larger than before, and unless the texture mapping of the model is incorrect, its skin is mostly purple; besides that, its eyes are slightly larger, it has antennae, and its namesake whiskers are gone. In terms of behavior, it acts exactly the same as the kakureimo.[5] Given how it acts the same as the kakureimo, has a similar name to it, and sports a similar color scheme, it's safe to say that the two creatures are somehow related. However, due to its striking resemblance to an already-existing enemy, the model may just be a placeholder. The following can be observed from the game's files:

  • It has animations for dying, appearing, burrowing, moving, biting, swallowing prey, chewing prey, being carried, noticing prey, looking around, going to its original spot, and the unknown animations lookout, lookin, sense, and prowl.
  • It is missing a cull_info.txt and dynamics.txt file, present in most other enemies' data.
  • The lock-on data's format version is 1, and the health parameter data's format version is 2.
  • It has the ability to drop nectar upon death.

crystal_maro_frog

crystal_maro_frog.

Data for a brown version of the standard Wollywog exists, but with a rock attached to its body. Its internal name is crystal_maro_frog ("Crystal Wollywog"), which implies that the rock is made of crystal. It is uncertain where exactly the rock or crystal would be attached to its body. Besides the coloring, it looks roughly the same as the Pikmin 2 Wollywog. The following can be observed from the files:

  • It has animations for dying, idling, washing its face, moving, turning, jumping, floating, falling, landing, being carried, and an unknown fail animation.
  • It is missing a cull_info.txt and dynamics.txt file, present in most other enemies' data.
  • The lock-on data's format version is 5, and the health parameter data's format version is 6.

iwadama

iwadama.

There is a model for the Beady Long Legs as it appears in Pikmin 2, size included, but its circular head is replaced with a large version of one of its feet. Presumably, it would've stomped on the ground using its head as well. With the model are two textures, which are the same as the Pikmin 2 one, but one is tinted blue and the other pink. On the image shown to the right, the Pikmin 2 texture was used for clarity. This creature's internal name is iwadama, meaning "rock orb". The Beady Long Leg's old internal name, damagumo, is now being used for the Shaggy Long Legs. The following can be noted from the game files:

  • It has an ai.txt file found only in some other unused enemies' data and on the Armored Cannon Larva's data, where it's also presumably unused.
  • It has animations for dying, landing, idling, shaking off Pikmin, and attacking.
  • It is missing a dynamics.txt file, present in most other enemies' data.
  • The lock-on data's format version is 1, and the health parameter data's format version is 2.

buriko

buriko.

A fat variant of a Male Sheargrub, around roughly the same size, too. It resembles a tick, and in a sense, the Ujadani. The texture that comes with the model is the same as the one in Pikmin 2. The internal name is buriko, and the used Male Sheargrub's name is ujinko_b, whereas it used to be ujib in Pikmin 2. It moves very quickly, and because of this, it has a hard time catching and eating Pikmin. It cannot damage leaders, and cannot get damaged.[2] Its color mapping isn't set up correctly, so it appears orange when alive, and turns white and purple if defeated with a bomb rock.[6] From examining the game's files, the following can also be noted:

  • It has animations for dying, getting squashed, moving, biting, being carried, idling, swallowing, and two unknown animations called caution and calm.
  • It is missing a cull_info.txt, dynamics.txt, and a lockon.txt file, present in most other enemies' data.
  • The health parameter data's format version is 2.

Other

In addition, the unknown and mostly-empty kokgamiegg "enemy" seems to have been made on accident, created instead of the used kokagamiegg (the Phosbat Pod), and tuyukusa is a mostly broken and smaller version of tsuyukusa but written using a different romanization system, the Burgeoning Spiderwort. Finally, the fire geyser has parameter files for a bubble and a gas variant, suggesting the planned return of gas pipes and the addition of water geyser-like hazard obstacles.

The file /content/CMCmn/system/param_db.szs/generatorsave_db.txt has what appear to be respawn day paramaters for the game's objects. Inside the list, one can find the entries GasHiba, which is what the gas pipes in Pikmin 2 are internally called, MureBuka, possibly an earlier name for the Scornet (who in the final version have the internal name Mure) meaning "swarm subordinate", and Tamagumo, an alternative spelling of Damagumo, which is also present in the file.

Fruit

The following fruit have or had unused Poko values because they don't appear in Mission Mode.

The following fruit have unused juice values because they don't appear in Story Mode.

Unused audio

The following article or section is in need of assistance from someone who plays Pikmin 3 Deluxe.
Particularly: Extract the unused files.

Two songs exist inside the game, but are unused. They are a "sad" and a "happy" version of the end of day theme, much like the ones in Pikmin 2. There is also a presumably unused mix for the boss battle theme[7] with less instruments, and, in Pikmin 3 Deluxe, an unused cue for the golden arachnorb battle theme.[8]

There is also an unedited group of sound files of a human howling, which were likely intended for an enemy.[9]

Unused scenes

To do: Determine why the Onion size is so much larger, and retrieve a cutscene of this kind for the other Onion types.
Care to do so?

Much like in the first game, each Onion was to be found dormant, and had their own "boot up" cutscene.

Other

  • There is an unique, unused Candypop Bud-like object named NamaPongashi. It is purple when closed but white when open, and its model derives from the Pikmin 2 Candypop Buds, but with black sharp tips at the ends of the petals.[10] 生? means "raw" or "unprocessed", which indicates that this is probably the base object that all Candypop Buds were meant to derive from. When Pikmin are thrown in, they die, but new seeds do not come out. After five are thrown in, it stops working.
  • Gas pipes were meant to return, as per the object called GasHiba. Like in Pikmin 2, only White Pikmin can survive the poison.[10]
  • There is an object called dragonball, that was likely used to test textures. One half of it is red with white spots, like the Bulborb or Dwarf Bulborb, while the other is white with blue spots, like the Hairy Bulborb or Snow Bulborb. This is interesting, since the Hairy and Snow Bulborb are absent from this game.
  • There is a large unused black and white checkered box called TestBox. It does nothing at all when spawned and is solid.[10]
  • There is a model for the Bulbmin in the folder containing all Pikmin and leaders. However, it is exactly the same as its Pikmin 2 model, so it was likely scrapped early in development.[11]
  • NamaPongashi closed.
