'''Pikmin''' are a [[plant]]-animal life-form first encountered by [[Captain Olimar]] when his ship crash-lands on an [[Planet of the Pikmin|uncharted planet]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''. The Pikmin are loyal to Olimar whenever he visits, and, according to [[the Ship]], seem to remember him when he meets them again in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. Pikmin come in a number of different types, each indicating a unique set of attributes that better suit them to different environments. They are 1 inch tall from foot-to-tip and are able to [[Carrying|carry]] (at least) ten times their own weight, as evidenced by the ability of [[Blue Pikmin]] to lift and toss heavy [[Purple Pikmin]] when they are drowning in water. | '''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 [[Planet of the Pikmin|uncharted planet]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''.

Captain Olimar was noted in ''Pikmin'' to wonder, a bit uneasily, why the Pikmin don't attack him, and speculated that they might see him as a "parental figure". An idea commonly held by fans is that Olimar's helmet antenna resembles a Pikmin stem, and that the Pikmin see him as one of their own or as some kind of "super Pikmin". Although wild Pikmin have never been observed to follow a leader, this explanation seems to be the most probable, and is further evidenced by the fact that Pikmin will imitate Olimar while idle, such as by blowing imaginary whistles. | Captain Olimar was noted in ''Pikmin'' to wonder, a bit uneasily, why the Pikmin don't attack him, and speculated that they might see him as a "parental figure".
