While landing, they fly through a small blizzard in the [[Valley of Repose]], and try to maneuver through some tree branches. Unfortunately, Olimar hits one of the branches, and Louie falls out of his cockpit, into the snow below. The Hocotate ship barely manages to land, and ejects Olimar out of his cockpit. He gets up and rediscovers Red Pikmin. After a while, the duo are able to reunite and salvage a [[Courage Reactor|piece of treasure]]. During their search for treasure the following days, Olimar and crew discover [[Purple Pikmin]] and [[White Pikmin]], and rediscover [[Yellow Pikmin]] and [[Blue Pikmin]], in that order. Meanwhile back on Hocotate, the president realizes he bought the loan from [[All-Devouring Black Hole Loan Sharks]] instead of Happy Hocotate Savings & Loan. After being constantly harassed by debt collectors over the phone, he goes into hiding, living under a bridge with animals for a short time until he is kicked out by a group from the government offices. He then goes on the run, while eating grass to survive. The president is finally caught however, and is seemingly tortured and threatened to be buried in Hocotate Swamp if Olimar and Louie don't repay the loan soon. Luckily, they collect enough treasure to repay the debt and return to Hocotate, but during the trip back to their home planet, Louie gets left behind. After arriving at Hocotate Freight and emptying the Hocotate ship of all its treasure, Olimar informs the president that there is more treasure left on the planet. The president then orders Olimar and Louie to go back to the planet, but then realizes that Louie was actually left behind. The president decides to join Captain Olimar, and the two return to the strange planet. They recover Louie from the [[Titan Dweevil]], and after collecting the rest of the treasure on the planet, they soon go back to Hocotate.

Sometime after this, Olimar once again goes on a lone vacation on the S.S. Dolphin, presumably rebought by the president after being sold off in Pikmin 2. The S.S. Dolphin gets hit by a meteor and crashes on the Pikmin planet once again. Like his first trip, Olimar has a limited number of days due to his remaining battery power in his life support systems, and has to collect all 30 parts of his ship that were lost during the crash. He rediscovers the Red, Yellow and Blue Pikmin, as well as discovering Ice Pikmin, Rock Pikmin and Winged Pikmin. Eventually he meets a plant-space dog hybrid whom he names [[Moss]]. After fully repairing the S.S. Dolphin, he sets off to escape the planet, however Moss stows away inside the S.S. Dolphin, resulting in her coming down with an extreme sickness due to a strange connection she has with the planet. The ensuing struggle to return Moss to the planet coincides with Olimar's life-support system finally giving out, crashing Olimar back on the planet. In an act that ultimately revives him, Olimar is brought to the Onion by Moss and his own Pikmin, and is transformed into a [[leafling]]; after which he is brainwashed with the teachings of [[Dandori]] and has his ID scrambled and replaced with a simple [http://HTTP%20404 Error 404 Page not Found] message.
[[File:Rescue Corp Crashed Ship.jpg|thumb|200px|Rescue Corps find their wrecked ship.]]
Before his takeoff and ensuing crash, Olimar was able to release a distress signal including his voyage log about the planet across the universe, resulting in the [[Rescue Corps]] flying to the planet to make contact. This also, however, results in many other unrelated parties attempting to land on the planet for their own motives. Every single one of them is stuck on the planet; all either crash-landing or being stranded on the planet some other way. [[Pikmin 4 player character|One particular member of the Rescue Corps]] is eventually able to make a successful landing, and sets to work saving the other Rescue Corps members, the many castaways (including those who have been transformed into Leaflings), and Olimar himself.
[[File:Sick Oatchi.jpg|thumb|200px|Oatchi under the effects of the sickness.]]
Eventually, Olimar is found and cured, but the space dog of the Rescue Corps, [[Oatchi]] comes down with a similar condition to that of Moss, preventing them from leaving the planet. They are informed that a veterinarian from the planet [[Koppai]] has also crash-landed on the planet. Arriving in a new area, they find a Koppaite with [[Louie]], who was sent by the president to find Olimar but ended up being distracted by the prospect of creatures to eat; he and Moss abduct the Koppaite and run away. In spite of his interference, they are able to rescue her. She informs them that they will need DNA from an unaffected space dog, and they recall that Louie's voyage log mentioned that there was one in the deepest part of a cave in the area. The Rescue Corps finds both Louie and the [[Ancient Sirehound]] in the cave, and are attacked by them. They are victorious, and while the Sirehound itself escapes it leaves behind its collar, which has enough fur on it for a cure to be made.
With everyone cured and rescued, they all manage to escape the planet, leaving Moss and the Pikmin behind.

Some undetermined amount of time after this, Captain Olimar is flying through space on his new ship, the [[S.S. Dolphin II]], and comes across a field of asteroids. He tries to dodge them, but fails and crash-lands on an [[Hey! Pikmin planet|unknown planet]] where he discovers that the Pikmin and other creatures from PNF-404 live on this planet too. To get his ship back in working condition, he has to recover some [[treasure]]s found throughout the land, so that the S.S. Dolphin II can extract their [[Sparklium]] to fuel the rocket. While exploring the planet, he rediscovers Red Pikmin, Yellow Pikmin, Blue Pikmin, Rock Pikmin, and Winged Pikmin. At some point, Olimar realizes that the ship lost an important ship part, the [[Sparklium Converter]]. Through some effort, him and the ship figure out that the piece lies in [[The Final Stretch]]. There, he comes face to face with the [[Berserk Leech Hydroe]], and using the help of some Red Pikmin, manages to defeat the creature, expose the parasitic [[Leech Hydroe]], and recover the missing part. With the S.S. Dolphin II refueled and the Sparklium Converter recovered, Olimar gives the Pikmin one final goodbye, and heads home safely.

=== Pikmin 4 ===
{{futuregame}}
It is unclear where Pikmin 4 fits into the prior game's timeline, if at all. Evidence within the game contradicts events from the original ''Pikmin'', while heavily implying ''Pimkin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3'' to be future events. In regards to the game's placement, Yutaka Hiramuki (one of the ''Pikmin 4'''s planning directors) says "(he'll) leave that to the players' imaginations".{{Cite quote|This game begins with Captain Olimar once again crash-landing on an unknown planet. However, what makes the game different from the previous ones is that he sends out a distress signal, and the Rescue Corps comes to his rescue, but they also crash-land. As the newest recruit, the player embarks on an adventure to rescue the castaways. To make it easier for newcomers to get emotionally invested in the world of Pikmin, we designed the game so that players themselves would become the Rescue Corps' new recruit. So, even if you're not familiar with past titles, you'll be fine. Of course, we've put thought into developing features that add to the fun for players of the previous titles, so they've got plenty to look forward to. As for the story's timeline, I'll leave that to players' imaginations.

Olimar goes on a lone vacation on the S.S. Dolphin. The S.S. Dolphin gets hit by a meteor and crashes on an [[PNF-404|unknown planet]]. Olimar has a limited number of days due to the remaining battery power in his life support systems, and has to collect all 30 parts of his ship that were lost during the crash. Suddenly, he finds an [[onion]], and discovers the Red, Yellow and Blue Pikmin (as well as discovering White Pikmin, Purple Pikmin, Rock Pikmin, Winged Pikmin and Ice Pikmin at some unspecified point). While exploring the [[Blossoming Arcadia]] (as he names it), he meets a plant-space dog hybrid whom he names [[Moss]]. Moss helps Olimar find his ship parts, and soon the S.S. Dolphin is fully repaired, and he sets off to escape the planet. However, Moss stows away inside the S.S. Dolphin, resulting in her coming down with an extreme sickness due to a strange connection she has with the planet. The ensuing struggle to return Moss to the planet coincides with Olimar's life-support system finally giving out, crashing Olimar back on the planet.
