Some unused content is left inside the final version of some Pikmin games. There is information about prototype content, but this is a list of content that is inside the games' files, and isn't used in a regular playthrough.
- Note: The Cutting Room Floor has in-depth and expansive articles about Pikmin, Pikmin 2 and Pikmin 3. As a result, this article will only provide an overview on the unused content found within the franchise's games.

Unused Voyage Log content
- Main article: Olimar's Voyage Log#Unused content.
There are some unused voyage log entries, some unused untranslated second pages, some Japanese entries that don't relate to regular logs, and a function to display the text "1 day" in some messages that can never do that.
Unused monolog content
- Main article: Olimar's monologs in Pikmin 1#Unused content.
There is an unused monolog, an unused function to write a singular or plural word, and a set of files in Japanese.
Unused areas
The following unused areas have been found inside the game's files:
Unused bomb-rock textures
Some unused textures have been found on the game's disc, portraying Blue and Red Pikmin with bomb-rocks.
Unused Pikmin animations
There are a few animations for the Pikmin that aren't used.

Others
- There are 2 test blo files found inside
dataDir\screen\eng_blo
, "test.blo" and "test2.blo" - account.blo contains some weird strings that don't seem to be used. They are "The sun has gone down, today's job is finished.", which appears twice, "starting pikmins", "pikmins now", "dead pikmins", "enemies defeated" and "collected items", which all appear twice, grouped. account2.blo seems to contain the real text for the results screen.
Pikmin 2

Unused graphics
Piklopedia dummy texture
A dummy Piklopedia icon can be found amidst the regular Piklopedia icon textures, in the game's files. Presumably, it was used during development to identify enemies with no icon at the time.
Unused scenes
Much like in the first game, each Onion was to be found dormant, and had their own "Boot Up" scene. These cutscenes go unused, but are still present in the game's files.
Unused treasures
Some unused treasures exist inside Pikmin 2's game data. These treasures are actually disks of older Gamecube games: Pikmin, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Luigi's Mansion, and Super Smash Bros. Melee.
