A 50-Pikmin run is a playthrough of Pikmin with only 50 Pikmin, the minimum possible number. Like the 6-day run or the zero-death run, it is recommended that you have completed the game at least once before attempting due to its challenging nature. Until the Gluon Drive is collected, it is only possible with no Pikmin deaths and is therefore harder than the zero-death run.
