==== Downy Snagret ====

An enemy known as a Downy Snagret{{cite web|https://pikmin.nintendo.com/en/comics/#!/fools-for-fuzz|Fools for Fuzz|Pikmin comic|retrieved={{date|27|June|2023}}}} resembling an infant [[Burrowing Snagret]] can be seen at one point in the February 2023 trailer, and is present in the key art. They hop around on their one leg, and look around and chirp when idling.

==== Unknown arachnorb-like enemy ====

An unknown [[Arachnorb family|arachnorb]]-like enemy can be seen at one point in the February 2023 trailer. Its head is black and resembles a disco ball, with several circular lights dotted throughout. Its legs appear to be covered by tightly-wrapped strands of a dark unknown material, which dangle from the upper segments of its legs. The bottom half of two of its legs are bare, exposing an ivory bony endoskeleton of some kind underneath. Several holes can be seen on the interior of its bottommost joints.

At the start it appears to be hanging from the ceiling, with the spots on its head glowing a cyan color. After being attacked by several Yellow Pikmin, it drops down onto the floor with a thud that shoves away Pikmin, the leader, and Oatchi. Right afterwards it spins on its head as its legs come down. When attacking, the lights on its body turn yellow and it stomps around, crushing Pikmin with its large feet. Many Pikmin can be seen underneath it when the lights are yellow, unable to do much other than jump in place with some pink smoke coming out of their heads. This status effect is similar in appearance to [[poison]], or the dust that the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] sprays which causes the Pikmin to [[panic]], but it is unknown if this is the result of the arachnorb enemy itself or another hazard.

==== Unknown Mockiwi-like enemy ====

An unknown [[Mockiwi family|Mockiwi]]-like enemy with a trumpet-shaped beak can be seen at one point in the February 2023 trailer. The top of its head and back of its body are a dim yellow color, while the bottom of the head and the stomach are white. They have small wings on each side of their body, and two small paws with white legs and red toes. Their sclerae are black, their irises are white, and their pupils are black. Their most prominent feature is the trumpet-shaped magenta beak. The fact that it looks like a Mockiwi, has a yellow torso, a dark-colored face, and a long snout makes it resemble an unused enemy in {{hp}} known only as "[[Unused content in Hey! Pikmin#Peromakky|Peromakky]]".

==== Unknown Chrysanthemum-like enemy ====

An unknown green creature with eyestalks disguised as flowers, similar to the [[Creeping Chrysanthemum]], is seen in a scrolling ribbon of pictures on the official Japanese website.{{cite web|https://www.nintendo.co.jp/switch/ampya/index.html|official Japanese ''Pikmin 4'' website|Nintendo|retrieved={{date|7|June|2023}}}} It has a large mouth and round cheeks. It seems to use its spiked tongue to attack and create significant saliva (possibly being a water hazard). Given its plant-like appearance, it likely will camouflage with its surroundings in an attempt to surprise nearby prey, just as the Creeping Chrysanthemum does. It could also be part of the Quaggled Mireclops’s family given the bright red tongue.

A light blue [[Dweevil family|Dweevil]] can be seen in a kitchen in the June 2023 Nintendo Direct trailer. It has a similar color to Ice Pikmin, suggesting that it may attack with ice.

==== Unknown Dwarf Bulborb enemy ====

An enemy resembling a [[Dwarf Bulborb]], but with the white abdomen of a [[Bulborb Larva]], can be seen at nighttime in the June 2023 Nintendo Direct trailer. According to the Pikmin Garden's Piklopedia,{{cite web|https://www.nintendo.com/jp/character/pikmin/book/bulborb.html|Japanese "Pikmin Garden" website Piklopedia|Nintendo|retrieved={{date|22|June|2023}}}} it is a Bulborb in a life stage between the Bulborb Larva and the adult Bulborb, and its Japanese nickname is {{j|コチャッピーモドキ|Ko Chappī Modoki|Pseudo [[Dwarf Bulborb|Small Chappy]]|f=tp}}.

==== Unknown scorpion-like enemy ====

A large unknown enemy resembling a scorpion, with a flower-like tail, is seen battling the player character in the June 2023 Nintendo Direct trailer. It may be a boss, as it is fought alone in an arena-like location. Its head somewhat resembles that of a [[Widemouthed Anode Beetle]].

==== Giant Yellow Wollywog ====

An abnormally large [[Yellow Wollywog]] can be briefly seen in what appears to be a water table or a pet shop terrarium. Although it looks identical to the Yellow Wollywog, it is extremely large, being just as 5 times as tall as a Pikmin when members of the species are usually twice as tall as a Pikmin, and this massive size allows it to actually depress sand that it lands on, forming new pools. It is unclear if this size difference makes it of a different species compared to Yellow Wollywogs, or they are still considered the same species.

==== Snowy Blowhog ====

The Snowy Blowhog is a grounded Blowhog that can shoot an icy mist that can freeze Pikmin.

==== Unknown icy Bulborb enemy====

One of the screenshots at the end of the game's demo appears to show a light blue Bulborb covered in ice crystals. Dwarf variants of said bulborbs also exist.

==== Tusked Blowhog ====

The Tusked Blowhog is a species in the new "Tusked Blowhog" family, which resembles a Fiery Blowhog except for its yellow eyes, visible mouth, and prominent tusks. It does not blow out of its snout like other Blowhogs, instead preferring to charge into Pikmin, similar to Oatchi's Rush attack. It will then try to eat any Pikmin it has knocked over.

==== Scorchcake ====

The Scorchcake has a short cylindrical rocky body and a pair of blue eyes on stalks. Its main attack is flipping over, crushing Pikmin underneath its hard body, revealing its burning underbelly.

==== Unknown Goolix-like enemy ====

An enemy resembling the [[Goolix]] appears in footage on the Japanese website. It appears to be fought by pulling on a tongue-like tendril until it bursts. You can freeze the goo with [[Ice Pikmin]], and then charge into it with [[Oatchi]] to burst the goo.
