Pikmin Reunion is the first day of Olimar's Comeback. It takes place in the Tropical Wilds, and has a unique objective: to collect 100 Pikmin.
Plot
Immediately after the events of the Story Mode, Olimar and Louie are sent back to PNF-404 by the President in order to retrieve the Hocotate ship, which was destroyed (presumably by the Quaggled Mireclops) and abandoned when the two instead hitched a ride with the Koppaites. This day shows them growing and collecting the Pikmin they will use for the remainder of this trip.
Afterwards, Olimar laments that they had landed nowhere near the Hocotate ship, which would be in the Garden of Hope.

Briefing
“A real leader would maximize Pikmin gains by exploiting creature bodies and Pellet Posies. Be sure to align Pellet Posies with Pikmin colors for the highest return on investment!”
Day start report

“We're here on this planet for the fourth time in order to recover my company's ship, which we had to leave behind last time. But all I really want to do is finish the job so I can return to my family. I'll need the Pikmin for that, but our crash landing startled them badly and they seem to have scattered. My first order of business will be to round a few of them up.”
Loading screen tip
“To increase your Pikmin, you'll need to carry wild creatures and pellets.”
During gameplay
In some situations during gameplay, Olimar or Louie will leave a comment.
| Trigger | Olimar | Louie |
|---|---|---|
| Moving towards Red Onion or SPERO |  “First things first... we must collect ourselves some Pikmin. I think 100 should do it.”
|
 “Pikmin! I'll catch a lot of them.”
|
| Crossing the bridge | “If there's one thing I've learned... it's that we must investigate every nook and cranny.”
|
“...Oh!”
|
| Approaching the Blue 5 Pellet on a ledge | “If we had a third person, we could cross here. Alas...”
|
“Throw Pikmin?”
|
| Approaching roadblock near the waterfall | “Oops. No going through there.”
|
“Ugh. Roadblocks.”
|
| 100 Pikmin on field | “To prepare for tomorrow, let's pull out those buried Pikmin.”
|
“Buried Pikmin... I'll pull out...”
|
Day end report
“Our landing scared the poor Pikmin, but they've calmed down since. Unfortunately, we miscalculated and touched down some distance from the Onion. I'm not even sure where the ship is anymore. There are dangerous predators on all sides, but we have a job to do nonetheless.”
Trivia
- Olimar's quote when approaching the ledge with the blue 5 pellet laments how he wishes there was a third person with them to cross the gap. This is similar to the data file in the same area in Story Mode, where he says the same.

Escape Pod
![[icon]](/index.php?title=Special:Upload&wpDestFile=Dwarf_Red_Bulborb_P3_icon.png){kind=link}
|
Because this subject has no official name, the name "Pikmin Reunion" is conjectural. |
This Escape Pod is the ship Olimar and Louie used during their fourth trip on PNF-404. It is only seen in the opening cutscene of Olimar's Comeback in Pikmin 3 Deluxe.
History
After Olimar and Louie return to Hocotate on the S.S. Drake, and without the Hocotate Ship, the President demands they go back and retrieve it. They use the Escape Pod to travel back to the planet. They presumably use it to avoid the nightly wildlife, until they find the Hocotate ship on day 3.
Appearance
The pod shares similarities with the Hocotate ship and the S.S. Dolphin II. The top of the pod is the Research Pod and the bottom of Hocotate ship's Main Engine, and the pod shares the color scheme of the S.S. Dolphin II.
Trivia
- In First Part Found and Another Part Found, Olimar refers to something as "the pod", which could be the Escape Pod, but it is more likely the Research Pod
