'''Areas''' are the main explorable locations in the {{pg}}. Each game in the series has a set of areas that can be visited, and these areas provide a range of environments to grow [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], fight [[Enemy|enemies]], and collect [[:Category:Collectibles|items]]. Each game features an [[area selection menu]] for selecting which area to go to from the areas unlocked. In the main games, this menu is shown at the beginning of each [[day]], and it is not possible to change the area one is exploring during a day. | '''Areas''' are the main explorable locations in the {{pg}}.
