Canon: Difference between revisions

{{todo|Establish how the Side Stories fit into the canon. Generally, the cutscenes and plot elements should be considered canon, but specific gameplay details — Such as the ships being replaced with SPEROs, gaining Pokos from collecting Pikmin, signs blocking pathways, and, debatably, Pikmin being scattered around, should not be. In other words, the gameplay is a mission-based "retelling" of canonical events. Further discussion might have to be made before picking and choosing what parts are canon and what parts are not.}}  

'''Canon''' is any information that is considered to be "real", "official", or "true" in a fictional universe. For the most part, it is trivial to understand what constitutes as canon and what doesn't, as one needs to simply follow the storyline of a main ''Pikmin'' game. But there are some aspects outside of the Story Modes that could count as either canon or not.
