In the {{pg}}, there is a '''limit''' to the number of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] that can be on the field at once. [[#Limits|In most situations]], this is 100. Only Pikmin that are out of the [[Onion]] count for these limits. In ''Pikmin 4'' [[caves]], wild Pikmin can be found and can allow the player's squad to exceed the limit set on the surface, though when the cave is exited any extraneous Pikmin are sent to the Onion.
