In the opening cutscene, [[Captain Olimar]] is shown flying in the [[S.S. Dolphin]]. The camera changes to show a meteor that shortly after crashes against the ship. It comes flaming down towards the [[Pikmin Planet]], losing bits as it falls. The game then begins at [[the Impact Site]], with Olimar lying down, unconscious. After waking up and looking around, he realizes his ship is wrecked.

If the player is idle on the title screen for long enough, the game will start showing a bit of gameplay, to show new players how the game works. In ''Pikmin 2'', there are several cutscenes that explain different parts of the game, such as each color's strength, and the hazards that can be found.
If the player is idle on the title screen for long enough, the game will start showing a bit of gameplay, to show new players how the game works. In ''Pikmin 2'', there are several cutscenes that explain different parts of the game, such as each color's strength, and the hazards that can be found. They appear in the following order, and loop over to the next one after the last one plays:
 
#A video demonstrating the hazards. Louie is shown accidentally drowning and setting ablaze some Pikmin, after which Olimar shows up and demonstrates that the whistle can be used to save them. Louie is then shown poisoning a Red Pikmin on accident, but shortly afterwards saving it with a whistle. Finally, Louie is shown walking into an electric [[gate]] and being electrocuted.
#The intro cinematic.
#This video shows the various abilities and how sprays work. It begins by showing Purple Pikmin's strength, White Pikmin's poisoning abilities, and their immunity, Red Pikmin's fire resistance, Blue Pikmin's ability to remain underwater and Yellow Pikmin's resistance to electricity. Afterwards, it shows the [[Ultra-spicy spray]] being used to make enemy killing and task completion faster, and finally, it demonstrates an enemy being petrified with an [[Ultra-bitter spray]]
#This cutscene shows how [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]]s work, how [[bridge]]s are made, how [[paper bag]]s can be walked on, it shows the entrance to caves, the interior and their treasures, and their exit geyser. Afterwards, it shows a couple of strong enemies and bosses.
#A video that shows the multiplayer aspect of the game. It begins by showing some clips of two players playing cooperatively in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], and then it shows two players battling against one another in [[2-Player Battle]], and the various game mechanics in that mode.
#The intro cutscene, once again.
#This video shows basic Pikmin actions: the ability to pluck them off the ground, their ability to carry objects, fight against enemies, be controlled with the C-stick, and destroy obstacles.
#The final video of the loop shows Pikmin being taken out of Onions and the ship, them being dismissed, the ability to choose a different Pikmin type from the group, while holding a Pikmin, and the cooperative aspect of the game's 2 controllable leaders.
