[[File:Pikmin 4 Piklopedia.png|thumb|250px|Screenshot of the Piklopedia, on the [[Dwarf Bulborb]]'s entry.]]
The '''Piklopedia''' ({{j|生物図鑑|Seibutsu Zukan|Creature Field Guide}}) is a field guide in {{p4}}.  It is an in-game collection of all of the [[Enemy|enemies]] that the player has beaten or seen so far, as well as encountered members of the [[Pikmin family]], [[pellet weed family]], and [[candypop family]].

Like the ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' version of the Piklopedia, the subjects can be seen live rather than in pre-recorded videos, and [[pikpik carrot|Pikpik Carrot]]s can be thrown at enemies to see their reactions. In ''Pikmin 4'', the player can use a variety of other items as well, such as [[bomb rock|Bomb Rock]]s and [[Lightning Shock]]s. This also means [[Enemy|enemies]] can now be defeated within the Piklopedia, a feat impossible in the previous versions. New to this version is also the ability to engage subjects with a squad of [[Pikmin family|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]]. The game will still keep track of entry encounters before it is unlocked, but after it is unlocked, the game will give notifications to the right side of the [[camera|screen]]. Most enemies are counted as discovered when the player walks near them.

== Usable items ==
Similar to the option to throw Pikpik carrots in [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|the original Piklopedia]], there is an option to use and throw items at the creatures. These include:
* [[Pikpik carrot|Pikpik Carrot]]s
* [[Bomb rock|Bomb Rock]]s
* [[Ice Blast]]s
* [[Lightning Shock]]s

When engaging in combat, the player is also given an infinite supply of the above items (along with mines, [[Trackonator]]s, [[Scrummy Bone]]s, and [[Glow Seed]]s) to use.

When observing pikmin in particular, the option to use Bomb Rocks or Ice Blasts is unavailable.

Interestingly, thrown Pikpik Carrots can crush certain enemies such as Dwarf Bulborbs. For the full list of enemies affected by Pikpik Carrots, see [[Pikpik Carrot#Enemies with special effects from Pikpik Carrots|here]].

== Area ==
Unlike the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia in ''Pikmin 2'']], the area does not change theme at all, being modeled after the [[Rescue Command Post]] from which it is accessed. The area is an oval shape with a flat grassy arena and a slope into a deeper portion.

When observing an aquatic enemy (such as the [[Wolpole]]), the latter's section will instead be flooded with water, and when observing the [[Bogswallow]] and [[Muckerskate]] the section will have [[mud]]. This section can be frozen with either an [[Ice Blast]] or 100 [[Ice Pikmin]]. Other features, such as treasures for the Breadbugs or Dweevils to pick up, may also be present. When observing the [[Man-at-Legs]], [[breakable pot]]s and [[dirt wall]]s will be present to serve as protection.

Exclusively in the [[Empress Bulblax]]'s entry, two brick walls will be present so that the Empress has flat surfaces to collide against while rolling from side to side.

=== Night ===
The area is also able to be viewed at night for creatures present in [[Night expedition|night expeditions]]. Creature behavior can also change when able, such as [[bulborb]]s now being fully awake. [[Lumiknoll]]s are also added and can be activated by throwing an item onto it, which in turn causes all creatures in the entry to instantly grow red eyes and try to attack it.

In some cases, creatures can only be viewed during nighttime. Those being:
* [[Albino Dwarf Bulborb]]s
* [[Groovy Long Legs]]
* [[Smoky Progg]]
* [[Ancient Sirehound]]
* [[Glow Pikmin]]
* [[Lumiknoll]]s

== Pikmin fighting ==
For the Pikmin entries in the Piklopedia, 5 of the specific type will be seen fighting an enemy (or multiple of the same species) they are resistant to or strong against to demonstrate their abilities. Unless the player engages, the enemy will never actually die from the [[Pikmin]] attacking it (nor can they be whistled away before the creature is defeated, similar to [[wild Pikmin]]).

Here is a list of each type's designated enemy/enemies:
* [[Red Pikmin]] will fight a [[Dwarf Bulborb]].
* [[Yellow Pikmin]] will fight a [[Bearded Amprat]].
* [[Blue Pikmin]] will fight 3 [[Wolpole]]s.
* [[Rock Pikmin]] will fight a [[Yellow Wollyhop]].
* [[Winged Pikmin]] will fight a [[Swooping Snitchbug]].
* [[Ice Pikmin]] will fight a [[Snowy Blowhog]].
* [[White Pikmin]] will fight a [[Moldy Slooch]].
* [[Purple Pikmin]] will fight a [[Waddlepus]].
* [[Glow Pikmin]] will fight a [[Bulborb]].

If the enemy they attack has yet to be discovered and added to the [[Piklopedia]], they will not appear and the 5 [[Pikmin]] will stand [[idle]] and cannot be interacted with at all when engaged.

== Notes ==
As with previous versions, the Piklopedia comes with notes. Each are unlocked when the character writing them is [[Castaway|rescued]].

=== [[Dalmo]] ===
[[Dalmo]], the castaway used to unlock and access the Piklopedia itself, has his notes unlocked by default. His manner of describing entries resembles the [[Hey! Pikmin logs#Creature Log|Creature Log]] from {{hp}}, as he mostly provides anecdotes or personal opinions about the creature, the latter of which reflects his fondness for creatures as a whole.

=== [[Captain Olimar]] ===
After rescuing [[Captain Olimar]], his notes become available. When possible, they are copied from previous Piklopedias with only minor changes. Creatures exclusive to {{p1}} and {{p4}} have entirely new notes written in the same style, being dry scientific analysis. However, some of them also incorporate Olimar's personal theories as well.

Previously, the creature's family and scientific name were included within Olimar's notes, but now are listed separately (like in ''Hey! Pikmin''{{'s}} Creature Log) and can be viewed before his rescue.

=== Louie ===
After rescuing [[Louie]], his notes become available. Like [[Captain Olimar]]'s, any returning enemies who already have notes in previous games are simply reused, with the majority of his notes being cooking recipes (some exceptions to this include the Pikmin, the Onion and the space dogs). For these creatures, his notes do not contain any information on how to cook the species and are much more apt and shorter, similarly to when he writes about a treasure that isn't edible in the [[Treasure Catalog]].

==== Recipe oddities ====
Interestingly, Louie references many ingredients found on Earth. As Hocotate seemingly has a severely different climate, it is unsure whether these referenced ingredients are a Hocotatian species similar to Hocotate Onions and [[Pikpik Carrot]]s, or simply a similar expression or object in their language, that are different from our world's ingredients.

In addition, the following notes conflict with the way [[enemies]] die in-game as they do not leave corpses:

*[[Baldy Long Legs]]
*[[Bulborb Larva]]
*[[Greater Spotted Jellyfloat]]
*[[Groovy Long Legs]]
*[[Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat]]
*[[Man-at-Legs]]
*[[Waterwraith]]
These same sort of oddities also exist in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''{{'s}} Piklopedia as listed [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)#Recipe oddities|here]]. 
As well as ''[[Pikmin 3 Deluxe]]''{{'s}} Piklopedia as seen [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 3 Deluxe)#Recipe oddities|here]].

== Unlocking ==
To add a creature to the Piklopedia, the [[rookie Rescue Officer]] or/and [[Oatchi]] must simply be within a close enough range to the creature, typically the distance they are able to throw their Pikmin. If one of the player's Pikmin (This does not include [[wild Pikmin]].) is able to attack the creature without the player being near it, it will also count as a discovery. This also applies to when a creature is attacked using the [[Co-op Mode|Pebble Pitcher]]. There are some exceptions to this rule [[#Entries|detailed above]].

The game will keep track of these "new creature discoveries" without notifying the player, until Dalmo has been rescued and the Piklopedia itself is unlocked. Then, whenever a new creature is found, the game will have a small pop-up on the right side to notify the player. If the player rewinds time, they will lose any and all discoveries made within the reversed period.

Creatures first encountered within a [[Dandori Challenge]] or a [[Dandori Battle]] will count as a discovery, except for Pikmin. Creatures first encountered in a Night Expedition may count as a discovery, except for creatures encountered in daytime. However, creatures first encountered in [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]] will not count as a discovery.

== Trivia ==
[[File:Lowest P4 Piklopedia.jpg|200px|thumb|right|4 creatures registered in the Piklopedia.]]
* The fewest possible number of creatures that can be registered in the Piklopedia is 4, all of which are required to be discovered on day 1.
* [[Glow Pikmin]] do not have their own death counts (including in the [[final results menu]]), but in the Piklopedia, their individual deaths are counted in the Pikmin Casualties total from the respective [[enemy|enemies]] they died to. This also includes [[wild Pikmin]], as their deaths do not add to each Pikmin type's death count.
* Uniquely, the [[Groovy Long Legs]] and [[Ancient Sirehound]] are only available at night, despite not being creatures seen in [[night expedition]]s. Any Pikmin type can be selected as if it were during the day. This is likely to emulate the dark caverns they belong to.
** In the case of the Groovy Long Legs, it is also the only entry that changes the music of the Piklopedia, in this case into its [[Music in Pikmin 4#Groovy Long Legs Battle|own battle song]].
* Some of the enemy previews show situations that are otherwise impossible to see during gameplay:
** The [[Candypop Bud]]'s entry depicts one bud of each color the player has collected the corresponding [[Onion]] for, allowing for all eight colors of Candypop Bud to be seen in the same area. During gameplay, the most Candypop Bud colors that can be seen at once are five, in sublevel 19 of [[Cavern for a King]]. If the player engages the Candypop Bud, only one type will spawn.
** The [[Mamuta]]'s entry depicts it sitting behind a group of Pikmin [[sprout]]s. The sprouts' types are randomized and dependent on the Onions that the player has collected. It is therefore possible for Pikmin of as many as eight different types to be seen buried in front of the Mamuta, more than can ever naturally be out in the field at once. If the player engages the Mamuta, none of the buried Pikmin will be there.
** All of the [[Dweevil family]] member’s entries depict them carrying a randomly selected [[treasure]] or enemy, showing that the Dweevils can carry up to 150 times their weight, as it’s possible for them to carry the [[King of Meats]], which weighs 300. The heaviest object that can be seen carried during normal gameplay is the Crimson Banquet in the [[Serene Shores]].
*The area's [[water]] and [[mud]] pools still exist when viewing non-aquatic creatures, just underneath the area's geometry.{{cite web|https://www.reddit.com/r/Pikmin/s/yX998LdMFQ|Reddit post showing frozen mud below the Piklopedia|Reddit}}
*Normally-harmless creatures can shake Pikmin off and throw them into [[hazards]], which might kill them. If this happens, the Piklopedia will record that enemy as responsible for the death in the Piklopedia entry's death counter.{{cite youtube|2N86mvjsh9c|demonstrating how a Mamuta can shake a Pikmin into water and how the game records the death|published={{date|5|July|2024}}|retrieved={{date|17|July|2025}}}}
