Gameplay happens on the bottom screen, although both screens show the action. Captain Olimar lands on the stage after being beamed down by a blue ship that highly resembles the [[Research Pod]]. Pikmin that are thrown at branches from below go up through them and land on top of them. Pikmin that land close to a task like a pile of [[Bridge#Fragment|bridge fragment]]s will automatically walk towards it and begin working on it. Enemy health is represented with a horizontal bar, unlike the [[HUD#Health wheel|pie chart]] of previous games. Blue Pikmin thrown while underwater are tossed in a straight line instead of an arc. | Gameplay happens on the bottom screen, although both screens show the action.
