The '''planet''' that [[Olimar]] lands on, in both [[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin 1]] and [[Pikmin 2]], is the natural habitat of [[Pikmin (species)]] as well as many other lifeforms, many of them predators of the Pikmin. The planet is known as the '''planet of the Pikmin''' or the '''Pikmin planet''' in both games. Although ambiguous, it is at least very Earth-like with similar geography. Whether or not it actually is our Earth or an alternate version is yet to be revealed in the games or by Shigeru Miyamoto, the game's creator; either way, it is doubtful that the similarities are coincidental. Tin cans as well as many other man-made objects and structures from modern times can be found lying around in the first game (for example, parts of [[Perplexing Pool]] and [[The Distant Spring]] appear to be the remains of a bathroom), and all the 'treasures' found in the second game are man-made or objects natural to Earth.

It is unknown if there is still a human presence on the planet at the time of the Pikmin story; it may take place some time after the extinction of humans. Since Pikmin 2's areas are comparable to those in its prequel, and there are new human objects, the only possible explanations are that man exists, or the items were blown into the areas from other places while Olimar was away.
