The method used to unlock areas in each game differs. One area is unlocked from the start, but the others can only be accessed after certain conditions are met. In {{p}}, areas are unlocked through collecting [[ship parts]], the main collectible. The number of parts required to access each area is 1 for [[The Forest of Hope]], 5 for [[The Forest Navel]], 12 for [[The Distant Spring]], and 29 for [[The Final Trial]]. In {{p2}}, the [[Awakening Wood]] and the [[Perplexing Pool]] are unlocked by collecting the [[Spherical Atlas]] and [[Geographic Projection]] respectively, while the [[Wistful Wild]] is unlocked by collecting {{pokos|10000}} worth of treasure. In {{p3}}, unlocking each area is tied to collecting a specific item. The [[Garden of Hope]] is unlocked by finding the [[S.S. Drake]] and completing [[day]] 1, the [[Distant Tundra]] is unlocked by collecting the [[Data Glutton]], the [[Twilight River]] is unlocked by collecting the [[Folded Data Glutton]], and the [[Formidable Oak]] is unlocked by collecting [[Louie]] for the second time. (To note is that although the [[Tropical Wilds]] is unlocked from the start, it cannot be landed in after day 1 before rescuing [[Brittany]].) In {{hp}}, sectors are unlocked by completing the [[boss]] level in the previous sector. | The method used to unlock areas in each game differs.

==Features== | |||
In the main games of the ''Pikmin'' series, areas have consistent features in their design. They have a landing site where the [[Onion]](s) and [[Ship (disambiguation)|ship]] land at the beginning of the day, and these are usually connected in several directions to spaces nearby. Most spaces center around a certain enemy or theme. There are often [[obstacle]]s between spaces that may increase the time it takes to get there or to restrict access to it until a certain [[Pikmin family|Pikmin type]] is unlocked. There are also some spaces that function more as corridors between other spaces. There are often large loops in areas that provide multiple ways to access a part of the area. In ''Pikmin 3'', there are loading zones that connect certain spaces that would be awkward to connect otherwise, such as a transition between a cave and the outside area. | |||
