Pikmin Garden is the franchise's home site in Japan. It has multiple sections, one of them being a series of reports from [[Chet]], a researcher in ''Pikmin 4''. These reports include screenshots and details from ''Pikmin 4'' as well as the first three games, including the old Onion designs, Mushroom Pikmin, and Bulbmin. In the first report, Chet says that Charlie, Brittany, and Alph have gone to PNF-404 to solve a food crisis, once again implying that ''Pikmin 3'' happens. In his third report, he shows "rare footage of Olimar's first encounter with Pikmin", which is footage of Olimar encountering the Red Onion in ''Pikmin''. | Pikmin Garden is the franchise's home site in Japan.

=== Olimar's Shipwreck Tale === | |||
[[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]] is a mode in ''Pikmin 4'' where Olimar recounts his adventure before the game's main story. This mode is a "tale" or "retelling" based on Olimar's memory of the events. | |||
Depending on the player's actions, the Shipwreck Tale may end with Olimar becoming a [[leafling]] before he has recovered the [[Interstellar Radio]] and sent a distress signal from it. Such an ending would prevent the Rescue Corps from learning about Olimar's predicament and give them no incentive to fly to PNF-404. The main story is therefore incompatible with such a version of the events, but Olimar will still claim that the latter is true. | |||
In the Shipwreck Tale, Olimar acts like has not previously encountered Yellow or Blue Pikmin or their Onions. | |||
