Pikmin Garden (ピクミンガーデン ～ピクミンのいる庭～?, lit.: "Pikmin Garden: A Garden with Pikmin") is the official Pikmin section of Nintendo’s Japanese website. It contains various articles with information on the Pikmin series. The website is divided into five main subpages: PIKMIN 4コマ (PIKMIN 4koma), 乗組員名簿 (Crew List), 原生生物図鑑 (Piklopedia), 調査レポート (Survey Report), and やってみよう (Let's Try It). Recent news on the series is displayed at the bottom of the page, alongside various links to games, movies, merchandise and other information on the Pikmin series.
A Korean version of Pikmin Garden was also released, looking identical to the original version. However, it is outdated, lacking some updates post the release of the website. Smaller versions of Pikmin Garden were also released on various other Nintendo websites. These only feature the Piklopedia and the Daily Comic sections of the website, as well as an exclusive page explaining what Pikmin are.
Subpages
調査レポート (Survey Report)
The Survey Report subpage features various reports on aspects of the world of Pikmin, referencing elements from all mainline games in the series. written from the perspective of Chet, the leader of the Research Task Force found in Pikmin 4.
#01 謎の惑星 PNF-404 (Mysterious Planet, PNF-404)
Report #01 details the initial discovery of PNF-404, as well as the later arrivals of the Rescue Corps and the crew of the S.S. Drake. It also describes a few characteristics of the planet, such as its surface and its climate. The report ends by noting that various structures thought to be relics of ancient civilizations have been found.
#02 奇妙な生き物ピクミン (Strange Creatures, Pikmin)
Report #02 goes in depth describing the Pikmin creatures found on the planet. It details their appearances, behaviors, relationship with other species such as the Candypop Buds, as well as their various different types, among other facts.
#03 謎の物体オニヨン (Mysterious Objects, Onions)
Report #03 talks about the various types of Onions, their relationship with the Pikmin, as well as their various designs across the series.
#04 オタクラの神秘に迫る (Approaching the Mystery of the Treasures)
Report #04 describes the various uses for Treasure collected on the planet, such as their valuable status, as sources of Piktamin U, and as a source of Sparklium energy. It also speculates on the objects' purposes during ancient times.
#05 宇宙犬と人類 (Space Dogs and Humanity)
Report #05 describes the history of space dogs such as Oatchi, their characteristics and skills. It also notes the differences between the newly discovered space dog Moss and Oatchi. The report ends by speculating on the origin of space dogs, including an allusion to the Ancient Sirehound.
#06 はたらく宇宙船 (Working Spaceships)
Report #06 describes the various spaceships used by the characters. It talks about the S.S. Shepherd, the Hocotate ship, the S.S. Dolphin and the S.S. Drake, as well as the smaller crafts SPERO and S.S. Beagle. It also discusses the patterns found at landing sites.
#07 惑星の地下空間 (The Planet's Underground Space)
Report #07 explores how caves work. It notes their properties such as the time dilation and internal structure changes, as well as how creatures have adapted to its environments. Finally, the report showcases a variety of different caves.
#08 宇宙服について (About Spacesuits)
Report #08 breaks down each part of the spacesuits used to explore PNF-404. It also features Russ and Puddle's thoughts on the different types of whistles and spacesuits, respectively.
#09 人類の繁栄と起源 (Humanity's Thriving and Origin)
Report #09 goes over the differences and similarities between the inhabitants of the planets of the Interstellar Federation. It also mentions legends that say their ancestors originally came from a planet surrounded by nature and water, and ends with a paragraph about the peculiar nostalgic feeling of PNF-404.
#10 惑星の謎 (The Mystery of the Planet)
Report #10 describes various mysteries surrounding PNF-404, such as the unexplained spaceship crashes, signs of civilization and rapidly changing environments, as well as possible explanations for these mysteries. It ends by listing Chet's theories regarding the crashes, that they may be caused by the Pikmin, by the Plasm Wraith and Waterwraith, or by the planet itself.
原生生物図鑑 (Piklopedia)
The Piklopedia (原生生物図鑑?, lit.: "Primitive Creature Field Guide"), much like the Piklopedia found in the games, is an encyclopedia of creatures from the Pikmin series. Each species has its own subpage containing various details such as its physical characteristics, behavior, relationships to other creatures, among various other aspects.
The creatures featured in the Piklopedia are:
Pikmin
ピクミンのなかまたち (Pikmin's friends).
Land creatures
陸上で暮らす生物たち (Organisms living on land).
Waterside creatures
水辺やその周辺で暮らす生物たち (Organisms living in and around water).
Flying creatures
飛んだり浮遊する生物たち (Flying or Floating organisms).
乗組員名簿 (Crew List)
The Crew List features profiles for characters from across the Pikmin series. The profiles provide a job, planet of origin, short description, related people, hobbies and dreams to each character.
The characters featured in the Crew List are: Captain Olimar, Louie, the President, Alph, Brittany, Charlie, Erma Shepherd, Collin, Russ, Dingo, Yonny, Bernard and Oatchi.
やってみよう (Let's Try It)
The "Lets Try It" page provides various activities to do based around Pikmin. These activities include a piano roll video of the song sung by the Pikmin in Pikmin 4, printable coloring pages of Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4 artwork, and both printable and video instructions to fold origami Red Pikmin, Yellow Pikmin, and Blue Pikmin.
On July 19th, 2024, the section was updated with the addition of Pikmin 100, a game playable directly on the website when viewed on smartphones. The game has only one input: a button on-screen with a whistle icon. Every time the button is tapped, a Pikmin appears on-screen, the number at the top of the screen increments by 1, and a group of children call out that number. The ultimate goal of the game, as its title suggests, is to summon a total of 100 Pikmin so they can all carry a Crimson Banquet.
PIKMIN 4コマ (PIKMIN 4koma)
The Pikmin 4koma features an archive of all of the comic strips from June 22nd, 2023 to June 21st, 2024.
PIKMINのコレなんだ? (Pikmin: What's This?)
Pikmin: What's This? is a video series which shows various close-up images of real world objects, encouraging the viewer to guess the object before it is fully revealed by the end of the video. Each object is the inspiration for a treasure in Pikmin 4, shown with in-game footage to end each video. New videos were posted to Pikmin Garden's Schedule Book every Monday from July 17th, 2023 to January 8th, 2024, when it was given a dedicated page numbering each video.
