'''''Hey! Pikmin''''' (sometimes stylized as '''''Hey! PIKMIN''''') is a spin-off game in the {{ps}}, released in 2017 for the [[Nintendo 3DS]]. The game takes place sometime after the events of {{p3}}, and sees [[Captain Olimar]] crash-landing on an [[Hey! Pikmin planet|unfamiliar planet]] and collecting [[treasure]] to gather enough [[Sparklium]] to fuel his ship back into working condition. The game plays very differently to the main games in the series, as it is a 2.5D puzzle platformer. The focus of the game is not on organizing the Pikmin, multi-tasking, and strategy, but is instead on reflexes, accurate aiming, and maneuverability.

[[Purple Pikmin]] and [[White Pikmin]] are not present in ''Hey! Pikmin'', but oddly enough, the [[Onion]] has some purple and white liquid inside it (along with red, yellow, blue, gray, and pink), indicating that it has Purple and White Pikmin inside.

{{see|Area}}
[[Area]]s in this game are organized into groups called "sectors". When an area is entered, the ship's pod drops Captain Olimar at the starting point, and then picks him up again on the other end of the area. Some areas have a secondary exit, and taking this one will instead lead to an extra area, as opposed to the next standard area in the sector.
''Hey! Pikmin'' has a total of 49 areas. Each area is a short side-scrolling level that Olimar and the Pikmin navigate to find treasures. Areas have a "front side" and a "back side" that can be switched between by entering a [[doorway]]. It is not possible to choose which Pikmin are brought to an area; instead, they are found in the area while exploring. When an area is entered, the S.S. Dolphin II's pod drops Captain Olimar at the starting point, and can then be found at the other end of the area. Some areas have a [[secret exit]] which leads to a different area to the standard exit. Areas are organized into groups called sectors, and there are 9 sectors in the game.

[[Treasure]]s are the main collectible items in ''Hey! Pikmin''. They provide a lot of [[Sparklium]], much more than [[Sparklium Seed]]s, and as such, are vital to Olimar's mission. Treasures are collected by having Olimar touch them. Since Olimar can't always reach a treasure directly, sometimes the Pikmin are required to [[carry]] the treasure to him.

The enemies in ''Hey! Pikmin'' are the natural wildlife of the planet. Many try to eat or otherwise kill Pikmin, but several types are harmless. Larger enemies, referred to as [[boss]]es, appear in the final [[area]] of each sector.
The enemies in ''Hey! Pikmin'' are the natural wildlife in the planet. Most of them want to eat the Pikmin, and others just want to kill them, but a handful of them are harmless. Almost all enemies in this game can kill Pikmin or damage Olimar simply by touching them. Larger enemies, referred to as [[boss]]es, appear on the final [[area]] of each sector.
