Music The Forest of Hope

The Forest of Hope (希望の森?, lit.: "Forest of Hope") is the second area in Pikmin. It is set in a temperate forest with a mix of wide-open spaces and narrow corridors. It contains 8 ship parts and is unlocked after collecting the first ship part, the Main Engine, in The Impact Site. Yellow Pikmin are discovered in this area. The enemies in this area are fairly easy compared to the other areas, with several Spotty Bulborbs, Dwarf Bulborbs, and Sheargrubs. This area was reused in Pikmin 2 as the basis for the Awakening Wood.

General layout

The following article or section is in need of assistance from someone who plays Pikmin.
Particularly: Add a "Key sections" section like The Impact Site.

Eternal Fuel Dynamo
Whimsical Radar
Extraordinary Bolt
Nova Blaster
Shock Absorber
Radiation Canopy
Geiger Counter
Sagittarius
A map of all of the ship parts, the Yellow Onion, and the location of the S.S. Dolphin in The Forest of Hope.

Most of this area consists of vast plains with some gates and high walls that block several paths. There is a small lake near the main plain. The most common enemies here are Spotty Bulborbs and Dwarf Bulborbs. This area contains an assortment of red and yellow pellets, as well as two wooden bridges that can be built to gain access to a small piece of land containing the Sagittarius. Behind the stone wall at the landing area is a yellow 20 pellet on a high tree stump that requires Yellow Pikmin to reach. To the north is the arena where the Armored Cannon Beetle is fought and to the southwest is the ledge where the Burrowing Snagrets are.

The bomb-rocks in this area are located inside tin cans. The first one is near the great plain with Spotty Bulborbs, another one is near the place where the Yellow Onion is originally found. The last can is in the place where the Nova Blaster is found. On the first day the area is visited, some are found out of the cans, three resting in front of one of the stone walls that can be destroyed after obtaining Yellow Pikmin.

Although water defends access to the Geiger Counter, the Radiation Canopy, and the Sagittarius, it is possible to collect these parts with Yellow Pikmin; thus, the area can be completed uniquely with them.

In Challenge Mode, there are a lot more Bulborbs, and Spotty Bulbears can also be found where the Armored Cannon Beetle and Burrowing Snagrets are found in story mode (the former location also has a Pearly Clamclamp).

Guide

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

There are ways to complete this area without the use of Blue Pikmin. This guide will explain how to get the parts the way they were intended.

After landing, use some Pikmin to break down the white wooden gate. On the other side, and to the right, is the Eternal Fuel Dynamo which needed at least 40 Pikmin to carry. Use the Dwarf Bulborbs and pellet posies to grow your count to this and collect the part. Continuing to the right, there is another white wooden gate which needs to be destroyed. On the other side, there is a handful of Dwarf Bulborbs and a single Bulborb, defeat these. Move further into the area and discover the Yellow Onion, and using the pellets and corpses, grow your Yellow Pikmin count to 20-25. Pick up all the bomb rocks, near the wall and in the can, and use them to blow up the white rock wall. In this next area, there are some male and female Sheargrubs along with the Whimsical Radar. Collect the radar and continue through the area. Using 9 bomb rocks, blow up the black rock wall and collect the Extraordinary Bolt behind it. Continuing down the path, you'll reach an open area with a black wooden gate, white rock wall, and some bulborbs. Kill the bulborbs and use the remaining bomb-rocks to blow up the wall. If you do not have enough bombs, that is okay. Break down the black wooden gate, head through and kill the bulborbs in your way. At the end of this path you'll find the Nova Blaster, the only non-mandatory part in this area, along with more bomb-rocks. Collect the part and more bomb-rocks, if needed, to blow up the wall from before. Head back to the landing site, and go back through the first gate you broke down. This time we'll be heading left. Throw a minimum of 30 Pikmin onto the ledge and climb up the root to the left of said ledge to join your Pikmin. On this raised platform, There is the Shock Absorber and a Spotty Bulborb. Kill the Spotty Bulborb and collect the part. For the remaining 3 parts, Blue Pikmin are required.

After discovering Blue Pikmin, take a handful and head through the wall to the north of the landing site. Head through the black wooden gate and to the left you'll see a white wooden gate in some water. Use your Blue Pikmin to destroy this gate and then the other gate up the slope behind it. The Radiation Canopy is found in this area protected by an Armored Cannon Beetle. Defeat said beetle and collect the part. From the landing site, head through the southern exit towards the water. There are 2 wooden bridges that need to be built in order to collect the Sagittarius, one of which require Blue Pikmin. Build both bridges and collect the part. The final part is located in an area that can be accessed from where the Yellow Onion was found, so head there. Once you are there, you should notice another rock wall near the tin can, blow this up with bomb-rocks. Through the wall is a couple of bulborbs, whom you should dispose off, and a cardboard box. Head into the water with Blue Pikmin, and use them to push the box out the way. Head across the newly opened bridge, where you'll be attack by up to 3 Burrowing Snagrets. One of these snagrets holds the final part, the Geiger Counter. Dispose of them and collect the final part.

Notes in other languages

Olimar's journal (Japanese)

最初に目撃した時は、巨大な水棲生物かと思いびっくりしたが、実はただの巨像だった。一安心だ。もしこんなブサイクな生物が実在しておそってきたら、無様に逃げまどうしかなかっただろう……。

When I first saw it, I was startled, thinking it was a giant aquatic creature, but in fact it was just a colossal statue. I was relieved. If such an ugly creature had actually existed and attacked me, I would have had no choice but to clumsily run away...

Sales pitch (Japanese)

いかなる美をも打倒するブサイクさは見る者の心に感動と絶望をたたきこむ。マニアにはたまらないブサイク品。
Ugliness that overthrows all beauty strikes emotion and despair into the hearts of those who see it. An ugly product irresistible to enthusiasts.

Spark dandelion

Location of the Silence Breaker in the Space of Silence.
A group of inactive spark dandelions in Space of Silence.

The spark dandelion is a small tool that lights up when Yellow Pikmin are thrown at it. When activated, it will hold the Yellow Pikmin in place as it lights up an area around it, allowing for Bloominous Stemples to bloom. The spark dandelion will immediately be turned off once the Yellow Pikmin are whistled at.

The name comes from the Japanese Hey! Pikmin guidebook, where it was given the name スパークタンポポ? (lit.: "Spark dandelion").

Locations

  • Ravaged Rustworks
    • Space of Silence: The only spark dandelions in the game appear here. They are found in the room containing the Silence Breaker, where they act as electrical tools that the player has to use in order to activate nearby Bloominous Stemples and reach the treasure.

Dash (ダックス?, lit.: "Dachshund") is a leafling castaway introduced in Pikmin 4. He is always the first leafling from a Dandori Battle to be cured.

Appearance

By default Dash wears a dull white space suit with green sleeves and white gloves. He has short hair, a round nose, and two large eyes with visible pupils.

Dash's spacesuit will instead be colored red if the Rescue Corps selected color is also green. His hair color is dependent on the color of the leafling that turned out to be him when cured.

Talk to Dash for the first time.

P4 Character 2 Face Variation 8.png

Wow... I've been drawn to caves for most of my life, but I haven't run into danger like this in a long time.

P4 Character 2 Face Variation 8.png

My life's quite precious to me... Thanks for helping. After all, I can only poke around in caves if I'm alive, right?

P4 Character 2 Face Variation 8.png

Oh, I should introduce myself... I'm Dash. I've explored all over the universe, thanks to my family's deep pockets.
Talk to Dash for the second time.

P4 Character 2 Face Variation 8.png

The captain warned me that she'd be very angry if I got stranded again, so I can't go explore any caves.

P4 Character 2 Face Variation 8.png

Oh, hey—I just had the best idea! Starting right now, I'm going to recognize you as my top... well, only... pupil!

P4 Character 2 Face Variation 8.png

I need you to explore the caves around this planet on my behalf. You'll have to make it through them all the way to the exits.
I'd like to start by seeing what kinds of skills you have. Make your way through 5 caves, and report back.
I can't tell you how disappointed I am not to be able to do this myself, but I've got high hopes for your tenacity.
Be very careful around the creatures here. You can't explore more caves for me if you don't make it safely back to the surface!
Wow! I knew I saw promise in you. I'm a great judge of caving potential. Next, try making your way through 10 caves.
You, my star pupil, are making great progress to support my life's work!
There may be a lot of danger, but isn't that just part of the thrill of getting to explore caves?!
You keep up an impressive pace when you explore! For your next target, how about... 15 caves?
Listening to your reports after you explore each cave gets me itching to dive back underground myself.
If you start to feel unsafe, go back to the surface for a while. Knowing when to quit is essential when you explore caves.
You really seem to understand the true "spirit" of caves now! For your final effort, make your way through every cave!
It sure does seem like this planet has a remarkable variety in its many caves.
The caves here are full of mystery and adventure, with creatures and treasures that point to a fascinating culture!
It seems I do have excellent judgment. You really are a top-notch pupil, both in name and reality!
In recognition of your great achievements, I'd like to offer this phrase I keep in mind as parting words to you. "You can always find me in the pits!" I hope we get a chance to explore some caves together one day.
You seem to be traveling through those caves at a good clip. Drop your latest report on me.
I want to help you discover the "spirit" of caves. You should continue your endeavor to explore even more of them.
What's this?! You've already completed your travels! Whoa! You're miles ahead of what I was expecting.
My title of Cave Researcher feels even more mediocre in the face of your great achievements. You've done amazing work!
I see you've already made your way through several caves. I would expect no less from my star pupil!
Your attitude... the way you take on these caves so enthusiastically... It's like when I first discovered the underground world.
About that "Industrial Maze" matter you reported... That sounded extremely interesting! The caves repeatedly show evidence of intelligent life-forms that evolved in an entirely different way from us. Machinery that keeps working forever, floors that float in the air... It sure does stir the imagination!
When I heard your report about the Secluded Courtyard, I was moved by the beauty of the silence you described. White sand spread out with a pattern in it. Hard botanical cylinders arranged here and there. There even seems to be significance to how the flat rocks are lined up... These are traces of a civilization we don't know.
Among the many caves you've been to, my sense of aesthetic is most drawn to the Seafloor Resort. The marine-blue water, the expansive sandy beach, the beautiful, strange, and sometimes dangerous aquatic creatures... The constant sound of flowing water must've been peaceful as well.
The building-block clearing like out of a fairy tale, the pastel-colored floor that creates a tranquil and bright mood... Thriving giant mushrooms to jump and play on... It does feel dreamy, like the name Dream Home implies. It shows the playfulness possible when a culture matures... This cave really stokes one's inner adventurer and poet!
The Mud Pit you reported on... a lake of poisonous mucus where spores and mycelia are interwoven. I'm so jealous that you got to explore that cave and get all sticky and mucky hiking through it! After all, the more hardship, the bigger the sense of accomplishment when you make it to the end!
The caves here are full of mystery and adventure, with creatures and treasures that point to a fascinating culture!
Talk to Dash while playing as Oatchi. This is embarrassing to admit, but I've been stranded in caves countless times, only to be saved by Rescue Pups like you.
Talk to Dash while playing as Oatchi. I live my life bouncing from adventure to adventure, so sadly I can't have a dog.
Talk to Dash while looking like him. A few years ago, I was diving in a cave made of a mirror-like substance. Wherever I looked, I saw countless copies of myself. You and I look so much alike, it brought back memories from that eerie experience.

The most plentiful species on the planet, they are quite ferocious despite their appearance, using their massive jaws to swallow Pikmin whole. Frontal assaults result in disaster; attacks from behind are more successful. Attacking their legs is also effective.

Structural flaws: eyestalks, back

Only a very confident designer would waive through issues like bright-red warning coloration and a tendency to sleep in broad daylight. There's no way a frontal assault on this thing will work, so we have to get creative. I'm thinking we should hit its back hard while it sleeps, or maybe target those thin-looking eyestalks.

The white polka dots on red is quite a look. Something about it is familiar, but where— Ah. Right. It reminds me of the captain. Not the polka dots—I mean the way it snores as it naps in the sun.

Charlie's comments

This red bruiser gobbles up Pikmin like candy. The standard approach is to attack from behind while it's still asleep. That may seem callous, but it would do the same to you if it could. Stow those feelings and strike!

It has wide, googly eyes on protruding stalks, a mouth meant to swallow prey in one large gulp, and powerful, red and white polka-dotted hindquarters. It's fierce, and yet it's somehow quite endearing. Be wary of getting lured in by its disarming mien!

Creature Log

English

(Oculus kageyamii russus)
Family: Grub-dog
The S.S. Dolphin II said it sleeps during the day, but the one I met was awake. I pointed this out and the ship said, "I meant during the day on Hocotate."

After defeating it, we found an object rich in Sparklium. It's possible that the creature considers such objects a delicacy.
Japanese

Common name: Bulborb
Japanese name: Spotted Crimson Bug-Eye

It has a large mouth and protruding eyes. The Dolphin 2 told me they sleep during the day, but it was awake.

When I complained about it later, I was told that "it was daytime in Hocotate time"...... After it was defeated, we found an object with a high energy reaction inside its body. Perhaps the creature was lured by the Sparklium energy and swallowed it.

Pikmin Official Player's Guide

This large organism has the familiar mandibles and cranial morphology of the grab-dog[sic] family, as well as the characteristic bulging eyes. As with most grub-dogs, its cranium comprises half of the organism's length and girth. Showing a scarlet abdomen with white spots, this creature is primarily nocturnal, choosing to prey upon smaller creatures returning to their nests. Juvenile greater grub-dogs live in treetops until developing spots, then fall to the ground to begin a similar predatory behavior.
Throw Pikmin at the adult spotty bulborb's back while marching the rest of your troop into its feet. Steer clear of the bulborb's mouth.

Pikmin Nintendo Power booklet

These nocturnal creatures are very common. Capable of surviving in a variety of habitats, bulborbs spend nearly all of their time searching for food. Their favorite meal? Raw Pikmin, of course.

New Play Control! Pikmin European website

Can anything polka-dotted be dangerous? If it’s a hungry Bulborb, you bet. Its big eyes on the top of its head are as big as its stomach. But the eyes can’t see what’s going on behind it. From the back is the perfect place to strike and swarm this beast.

Pikmin 2 Official Player's Guide

The weakest of the larger Bulborbs, the Red Bulborb can still hold its own against a good-sized Pikmin squad. Since it is a nocturnal species, most of the Red Bulborbs that you encounter in the daytime will be asleep to start. Sneak up on them from behind and hit them with a stream of flying Pikmin.

Length: 90mm
On the surface, they are harmless as long as you do not approach them and they remain asleep. Even if they are awakened, they won't follow you very far. The same is true when they appear underground, but they will wake up if another creature comes in contact with them. While it is sleeping, you can kill it by going behind it and throwing a large number of Pikmin at it in rapid succession.

Pikmin 3 website

It's considered one of the weakest of the Bulborbs, but can still hold its own against a good-sized Pikmin squad. Attack from behind to gain the advantage. Weakest point: eyeballs.

Pikmin 3 Prima Guide

These large creatures use their jaws to gobble up several Pikmin with each bite. Whenever possible, use a large squad of Pikmin to charge the creature from the rear. If brute force isn’t an option, throw Red Pikmin and Rock Pikmin onto the creature’s back. During an extended battle, it’s important to retrieve your Pikmin as the Bulborb shakes them off.

Pikmin Garden

A colorful Bulborb with white spots on a red abdomen. Being nocturnal, it sleeps during the day, but it is ferocious and will swallow whole anything it sees. The creatures in the Grub-Dog family are at the top of the food pyramid.

○ What is the Grub-Dog family?

They were named Grub-Dogs because of the way they walk on two legs like space dogs.

Feature #1: Nocturnality

It sleeps during the day and does not wake up unless its territory is entered, but it becomes active and searches for prey around sunset.

  • "(Day) Sleeping"
  • "(Night) Eyes glow red")

Feature #2: How it recognizes other members of the same clade

As it grows, the body color becomes darker, and it is recognized by the spots that appear on its abdomen.
(Image text: "Larvae without spots are sometimes preyed upon")

Feature #3: Large eyes

The eyeballs become large in order to catch faint light at night. Because of this, the eyelids cannot close completely, and it blinks by stretching and contracting the well-developed iris.

紅色の腹部に白い斑紋が色鮮やかな、デメマダラ。夜行性のため昼間は寝ているが、獰猛で目にしたものは何でも丸飲みにしてしまう。イヌムシ科に属する生物は、生態ピラミッドの上位に位置している。

○イヌムシ科とは?

宇宙犬のように二足歩行をする様子から、イヌムシと命名された。

特徴 その1 夜行性

昼間は眠っていて、縄張りに入らない限り起きることはないが、日が沈む頃に活発になって獲物を探し回る。

  • (昼)眠っている
  • (夜)目が赤く光る)

特徴 その2 仲間の見分け方

成長するにつれて体色が濃くなっていき、腹部に浮き上がる斑紋で仲間と認識する。
(Image text: 斑紋がない幼虫は餌食されてしまうこともある)

特徴 その3 大きな眼

夜間のかすかな明かりを捉えるために眼球が大きくなっている。その影響でまぶたを完全に閉じることはできず、発達した虹彩を伸縮させて瞬きする。

An astonishing fortune-telling device that points to the direction of the flow of fate. It determines the direction of one's destiny by calculating the planetary geomagnetism, cosmic magnetism, and biomagnetism all together. It is recommended for people who can think positively that in a long life, sometimes things face south and sometimes north!

Pikmin 4

Schnauz's notes

This astounding device indicates which direction fate is flowing. By reading the magnetic fields found on planets and in living organisms alike, it can read one's fortune. The science is too complex to explain, but whether you go north or south, do heed its guidance.

Olimar's notes

The arrow-like object floating in the center appears to move around at will, but it's actually always pointing in the same direction. It could be trying to point me toward my destiny, but I'd rather figure that out on my own.

Louie's notes

Could be useful for food storage. I just need to figure out how to open it.

We've recovered our first treasure! Amazingly, the Pikmin remembered how to salvage it. I can't understand their adorable language and I don't know what they're thinking, yet I'm so happy to see them. When I crashed on this planet, the Pikmin helped me locate my missing ship parts. In my darkest hour, the Pikmin were there for me. Now that I'm reunited with them, I know everything will be alright. It will...right?

どうにか最初のお宝を回収できた! ピクミンは私のことをしっかり覚えていてくれた。彼らとは言葉も通じない、考えていることもよくわからないが、むしょうにうれしい。前回、この星に遭難して、ピクミンといっしょにバラバラになった宇宙船のパーツを探したことが思い出される。絶望的と思われたあの時も、ピクミンと共に乗り越えた。今度もきっと大丈夫だ。
We've just somehow collected our first piece of treasure! The Pikmin seem to have vividly remembered me. I don't speak their language, and I don't even know what they're thinking, but I am unmeasurably happy. I am reminded of the time I last shipwrecked onto this planet, when the Pikmin and I searched for the scattered parts of the spaceship. That time, which I thought was hopeless or desolate, the Pikmin and I overcame it. This time as well, it will be okay.
