The Piklopedia is a feature in Pikmin 4. It is an in-game collection of all of the enemies that the player has beaten so far, as well as encountered members of the Pikmin family and Candypop family.

Like the Pikmin 2 version of the Piklopedia, the subjects are live rather than pre-recorded and Pikpik carrots can be thrown at enemies to see their reactions. Now the player can use a variety of other items as well, such as Bomb rocks and lightning strikes. This also means enemies can now be defeated within the Piklopedia, a feat impossible in the previous versions. New to this version is the ability to engage subjects with a squad a Pikmin and Oatchi. This allows the player to better study the attack patterns of especially troublesome enemies without the risk of suffering any permanent Pikmin losses.

The Piklopedia can be unlocked by rescuing the castaway Dalmo. After it is unlocked, the game will begin to keep track of entry encounters during gameplay.

Notes

The notes in this version of the Piklopedia are written by Dalmo. His manor of describing entires resembles the Creature Log from Hey! Pikmin, as he mixes unbiased scientific analysis (akin to the Piklopedia from Pikmin 2) with anecdotal or personal opinions. Similarly, the family and scientific name of each entry are classified separately from the notes themselves.
