Although unconfirmed by Nintendo, outside sources claim that this game's creation is an attempt to boost recognition of the franchise, in order to drive the series in a new direction and with a new fanbase, with the use of ''[[Pikipedia:April Fool's Day/Pik-Min|Pik-Min]]'' and the [[Pikipedia:April Fool's Day/Nintendo Cinematic Universe|Nintendo Cinematic Universe]].

* In order to simplify the world's complexity, the only enemies are the most representative species in each [[:Category:Families|family]] (bar the Slurptongue Bulborb), e.g.: the [[amphituber family]] is represented solely with [[Yellow Wollywog]]s.

===Pikmin===
Only [[Red Pikmin|Red]], [[Yellow Pikmin|Yellow]], and [[Blue Pikmin]] have been confirmed to return. Although they are initially found without color, they can be dyed in order to be used. How they differ from their "classic" game counterparts has not been announced yet.

===Areas===
Although five areas have been confirmed, their names have not been given. Two other areas, equally unnamed, have also been confirmed to be [[downloadable content]] available to purchase at launch day. Although the Paintiplex has been confirmed as a location in the game, it is not known where it will be, nor if it is a true area.

==Treasures==
===Treasures===
Although treasures are known to return, only one was seen to appear in trailers: the [[Paradoxical Enigma]]. Its name in this game is not known. Treasures are used in the areas in order to solve problems, but can also be used in battles. Depending on the enemy, a used treasure might make the fight easier, or only provide a small help. Once used up, treasures can be recollected where they were originally found.

One new enemy has been confirmed, the Slurptongue Bulborb. It resembles a [[Whiptongue Bulborb]] but its snout is designed to slurp like a straw. It can suck up color from the environment for its own sustenance. Interestingly, one image shows the enemy's name spelled as "Slurp-Tongue Bulborb". Because more sources show the enemy's name spelled as "Slurptongue", it is assumed the name with the hyphen is simply a [[Prerelease information|prototype name]].
