The following mistakes are directly related to the ''Pikmin'' franchise, but happen outside of the main ''Pikmin'' canon games.


===Red Bulborb trophy===
===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' trophies===
Trophies in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' have a section that lists what relevant console and games the trophy's subject appears on. The trophy for the [[Red Bulborb]] omits ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', hence incorrectly claiming that the creature debuted in ''Pikmin 2''. In reality, the only part of the trophy's subject that did debut in ''Pikmin 2'' is solely the name of the creature, "Red Bulborb"; this enemy was known as "Spotty Bulborb" in ''Pikmin''.
* The trophy for the [[Red Bulborb]] omits ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' from the list of relevant games<ref>{{transcript|{{Notes:Red Bulborb/ssbb}}|''Brawl'' trophy description for the [[Red Bulborb]]}}</ref>, hence incorrectly claiming that the creature debuted in ''Pikmin 2''. In reality, the only part of the trophy's subject that did debut in ''Pikmin 2'' is solely the name of the creature, "Red Bulborb"; this enemy was known as "Spotty Bulborb" in ''Pikmin''.
* The [[Careening Dirigibug]]'s trophy states that these enemies have a chance of dropping a dud [[bomb-rock]]<ref>{{transcript|{{Notes:Carreening Dirigibug/ssbb}}|''Brawl'' trophy description for the [[Careening Dirigibug]]}}</ref>. However, in the games, no bomb-rocks are ever dud.
* The [[pellet]] trophy states that pellets can be "harvested from pellet grass and flowers"<ref>{{transcript|{{Notes:Pellet/ssbb}}|''Brawl'' trophy description for the [[pellet]]}}</ref>. It is not elaborated what either of these two sources mean, either in ''Brawl'' or any ''Pikmin'' game, but it can only be assumed the flowers are actually the [[Pellet Posies]]. However, there are no grasses that can contain pellets in any ''Pikmin'' game. The only grasses that can provide anything similar are [[nectar weed]], which contain raw [[nectar]], not the crystallized pellets.


===Careening Dirigibug trophy===
===''Super Smash Bros. for 3DS and Wii U'' trophies===
The [[Careening Dirigibug]]'s trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' states that these enemies have a chance of dropping a dud [[bomb-rock]]<ref>"''These Bomb-rocks sometimes turn out to be duds, but since the slightest stimulus can set these things off, the ultimate care should be taken with them.''" &ndash; ''Brawl'' trophy description for the [[Careening Dirigibug]]</ref>. However, in the games, no bomb-rocks are ever dud.
* The [[Sunset|End of Day]] trophy on the European version of ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' states that Olimar jumps aboard the [[S.S. Dolphin]]<ref>{{transcript|{{Notes:End of Day/ssb4wiiueu}}|''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' trophy description for the [[Sunset|End of Day]] Final Smash}}</ref>. In reality, the spaceship Olimar uses in his Final Smash is the [[Hocotate ship]].
* The Hocotate Bomb is an explosive miniature item shaped like the [[Hocotate ship]]. Its trophy description states that it appears in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2''<ref>{{transcript|{{Notes:Hocotate Bomb/ssb4wiiuus}}|''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' trophy description for the [[Hocotate ship|Hocotate Bomb]]}}</ref>. Not only does the item itself not appear in any canon ''Pikmin'' game, the Hocotate ship also makes its debut in ''Pikmin 2'', being absent from ''Pikmin'' altogether.
* The trophy for the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]] in the European version of ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' advises players to flip the creature onto its back with a [[Purple Pikmin]], and then sending other Pikmin to strike<ref>{{transcript|{{Notes:Iridescent Flint Beetle/ssb4wiiueu}}|''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' trophy description for the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]]}}</ref>. Although using Purple Pikmin is a good strategy due to their homing properties, the creature will not stay on its back, nor will charging at it with other Pikmin be beneficial. The trophy's tactic is valid for the [[Anode Beetle]], however.
* The [[Burrowing Snagret]]'s trophy in either region of ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' omits ''Pikmin 2'' from the list of games, instead listing ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 3''<ref>{{transcript|{{Notes:Burrowing Snagret/ssb4wiiuus}}|''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' trophy description for the [[Burrowing Snagret]]}}</ref>. Although this does not make the list incorrect, it is likely an oversight, given that other subjects that appear in all three games list ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'' (the first appearances, omitting ''Pikmin 3'' as a result), in addition to the fact that this [[enemy]] is more common in ''Pikmin 2'' than in ''Pikmin 3''.
* Again on the Burrowing Snagret's trophy, the description on the US region of ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' claims that it belongs to the "avian" family. In reality, the creature belongs to the [[Snavian family|''s''navian family]].


===Pellet trophy===
In addition to these mistakes, some of the ''Pikmin'' series' trophies also have other flaws that are not related to the ''Pikmin'' canon. A list of such mistakes can be found [[smashwiki:List of SSB4 trophies (Pikmin series)#Notes|here]].
The [[pellet]] trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' states that pellets can be "harvested from pellet grass and flowers". It is not elaborated what either of these two sources mean, either in ''Brawl'' or any ''Pikmin'' game, but it can only be assumed the flowers are actually the [[Pellet Posies]]. However, there are no grasses that can contain pellets in any ''Pikmin'' game. The only grasses that can provide anything similar are [[nectar weed]], which contain raw [[nectar]], not the crystallized pellets.
