'''Pikmin''' ({{j|ピクミン|Pikumin}}) are a [[plant]]-animal life-form first encountered by [[Captain Olimar]] when his ship crash-lands on an [[PNF-404|uncharted planet]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''. The Pikmin are loyal to their [[leader]]s, although their criteria for deciding a leader is unclear. They come in a number of different types, each indicating a unique set of attributes that better suit them to different environments and tasks. Most Pikmin are {{tt|1.2cm|0.47 inches}} tall head to toe – around {{tt|3cm|1.2 inches}} if the stem and top are included – and have a vaguely humanoid shape, allowing them to walk, run, [[carry]] and fight. Different types can have different shapes or sizes. Atop any Pikmin's head is a stem, topped with a leaf, bud, or flower, depending on their [[maturity]].

Captain Olimar was noted in ''Pikmin'' to wonder, a bit uneasily, why the Pikmin don't attack him, and he speculated that they might see him as a "parental figure"{{cite quote|When I see the Pikmin engaged in fierce battle with other creatures of this world, I often grow uneasy wondering why they never attack me... Could it be that they actually view me as a parental figure? A strange, disturbing thought...|Captain Olimar|his [[Olimar's voyage log|voyage log]]}}. However, the [[Antenna Beetle]] being able to control Pikmin with its sound might prove that it is in fact the [[whistle]] that makes Pikmin non-aggressive.
