Some external content like the [[e-Reader|e-cards]] or the [[Pikmin Short Movies|''Pikmin'' Short Movies]] have information that matches up with the existing canon and makes sense in the ''Pikmin'' universe. However, no official word has been given on their canon, and because they do not belong to the main ''Pikmin'' series of games, their content is left as ambiguously canonical. | Some external content like the [[e-Reader|e-cards]] or the [[Pikmin Short Movies|''Pikmin'' Short Movies]] have information that matches up with the existing canon and makes sense in the ''Pikmin'' universe.

[ | [[Prima Games]] has a vague relationship with the developers of games they make guides for. On top of containing walkthroughs and tips, some guides include some extra information about aspects of a franchise; in the ''Pikmin'' series' case, this could be extra descriptions of enemies, for instance. Prima Games works with all sorts of companies, making it doubtful that they can have a meaningful connection with all of them such that the extra information they write can be accepted as canon by the developers. On the other hand, it is clear that Prima Games has a strong connection with at least some departments of the development teams, seeing that their guides usually contain maps and charts that were rendered using 3D models or in-game images, resources that can only be obtained legally by agreement with the developer company. | ||
