This area is one of the least visited in a regular playthrough, but is also the best one to increase Pikmin population.

The level consists of a small pool of water, not accessible on Day 1, a number of tree stumps, and a few relatively small grassy clearings. It contains only two ship parts, one of which is collected on the first day in the tutorial-like beginning of the game. After day 1, the amount of [[Pellet Posy|Pellet Posies]] increases, and some enemies appear: the large amounts of pellets from then on make this area arguably the best place for boosting Pikmin population. It is also the only location of the [[Goolix]], one of the game's hidden bosses, which can only be found on odd-numbered days after day 8, on the large tree stump near the water. Located on the same tree stump day 8 and all other subsequent even-numbered days, a [[Mamuta]] will be shown.

==General layout==
This area contains three twenty valued pellets, one for each Pikmin. The red pellet is located behind of the stone gate, next to the lake. The yellow one is located in a tree stump that only [[Yellow Pikmin]] can reach, in the arena where the Goolix is fought. The blue one is in an island next to the Pearly Clamclamp that is holding the Positron Generator, and it can only be reached by blues. Besides those, there are several pellet posies and three 10 valued pellets, once again, one for each collor, and all of them near the landing site. In order for Olimar to get them, he must order his Pikmin to build the stick that leads them there, and break a geyser hidden in the tall grass so he can get up there. Also, each of the Pearly Clamclamps that Olimar defeats, gives Olimar a pearl, that is worth fifty Pikmin each. Olimar must then get all of this pellets, the pearls and the positron generator. The timing must also be short. If Olimar doesn't mind not fighting the optional boss, he must go there on an even numbered day, as the Mamuta can be ignored, it only attacks after the Pikmin attack, and doesn't kill Pikmin. If Olimar has extra time, he can always defeat it afterwards, but plucking the planted Pikmin can consume a long time, resulting in leaving several Pikmin behind. Olimar can also save time in any area when having one hundred Pikmin out even if they are idle so Olimar doesn't need to pluck more Pikmin.

File:Impact Site.jpg
A complete map of the area, including ship parts and enemies.

The Impact Site is where Captain Olimar first lands after his ship crashes on the Pikmin Planet in Pikmin, and so the first day is spent there. The area is near the edge of the vast forest on the area select map, not far from The Forest of Hope. The Impact Site is the location of the discovery of the Red Onion with its associated Red Pikmin. This area and The Final Trial would make up the area Wistful Wild in Pikmin 2.

General Layout

The entrance to the watery portion of The Impact Site.
The watery area of the level.

The level consists of a small pool of water, not accessible on Day 1, a number of tree stumps, and a few relatively small grassy clearings. It contains only two ship parts, one of which is collected on the first day in the tutorial-like beginning of the game. After day 1, the amount of Pellet Posies increases, and some enemies appear: the large amounts of pellets from then on make this area arguably the best place for boosting Pikmin population. It is also the only location of the Goolix, one of the game's hidden bosses, which can only be found on odd-numbered days after day 8, on the large tree stump near the water. Located on the same tree stump day 8 and all other subsequent even-numbered days, a Mamuta will be shown.

The Bomb Rocks in this area are found inside the box that the Pikmin have to push on the first day, in order to get the Main Engine.

This area contains three twenty valued pellets, one for each Pikmin. The red pellet is located behind of the stone gate, next to the lake. The yellow one is located in a tree stump that only Yellow Pikmin can reach, in the arena where the Goolix is fought. The blue one is in an island next to the Pearly Clamclamp that is holding the Positron Generator, and it can only be reached by blues. Besides those, there are several pellet posies and three 10 valued pellets, once again, one for each collor, and all of them near the landing site. In order for Olimar to get them, he must order his Pikmin to build the stick that leads them there, and break a geyser hidden in the tall grass so he can get up there. Also, each of the Pearly Clamclamps that Olimar defeats, gives Olimar a pearl, that is worth fifty Pikmin each. Olimar must then get all of this pellets, the pearls and the positron generator. The timing must also be short. If Olimar doesn't mind not fighting the optional boss, he must go there on an even numbered day, as the Mamuta can be ignored, it only attacks after the Pikmin attack, and doesn't kill Pikmin. If Olimar has extra time, he can always defeat it afterwards, but plucking the planted Pikmin can consume a long time, resulting in leaving several Pikmin behind. Olimar can also save time in any area when having one hundred Pikmin out even if they are idle so Olimar doesn't need to pluck more Pikmin.
