In ''Pikmin 2'', the time of [[day]] does not pass while the player is in a cave. According to earlier versions of the game, this is because the space-time continuum was warped due to the cave's geomagnetic radiation field.{{cite web|quote=A geomagnetic radiation field underground must have warped the space-time continuum. / Even my record of the terrain has been erased.|http://tcrf.net/Proto:Pikmin_2/Cutscene_Text#Return_to_the_Surface|Proto:Pikmin 2/Cutscene Text|The Cutting Room Floor}} The final version's instruction manual simplifies this and simply calls it "a powerful magnetic field".{{cite quote|Because of a powerful magnetic field deep under the surface, time does not pass underground.|Explanation|page 25 of the manual}}{{cite quote|The powerful magnetic field between the surface and underground can have peculiar, unexpected results.

In ''Pikmin 4'', time does pass while underground, but only at a sixth of its normal speed. If the overworld time reaches [[sunset]] while the player is exploring a cave, nothing will happen and the player will be free to continue inside the cave for as long as they want, but as soon as they leave the cave the sunset countdown will begin | In ''Pikmin 4'', time does pass while underground, but only at a sixth of its normal speed.
