Viewing a Mockiwi in the creature log.
Viewing a Mockiwi in the enemy log.

The following article or section is in need of assistance from someone who plays Hey! Pikmin.
Particularly: Document what needs to be done to open each creature's entry. Some need to be defeated, and others need to be touched, but there may be more complex mechanics. Also, document every creature's animation when viewing, specifically when you tap on them.

Hey! Pikmin has a log feature in which Captain Olimar writes a log about the creatures and treasures he encounters in his journey throughout the game. This feature has no name, being referred to only as "Logs" in the likes of the area selection menu, and is similar to the Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard in Pikmin 2. It also allows the player to view 3D models of each entry, but unlike Pikmin 2, the models appear in a void, and cannot be interacted with other than rotating the camera and triggering a couple of random animations by tapping on them. While viewing an entry, the top screen shows Olimar's log on the subject, while the bottom screen shows the 3D model and buttons to navigate the menu for the logs.

There are four categories in the logs menu: "Pikmin Log", "Creature Log", "Treasure Log", and "amiibo Log". Although entries are not specifically numbered, each one in a category has its own reserved spot in the list, and if the player has not yet encountered the subject, then a question mark will appear in place of its icon.

This feature becomes available after completing the tutorial level, although the creature and amiibo categories are initially locked, as explained in their own sections in this article.

Pikmin LogEdit

Treasure LogEdit

The Treasure Log contains entry about all of the non-amiibo treasures collected. A treasure is only logged after it is recovered and the player reaches the goal in the area it is in. These treasures are sorted by the order in which they appear, following this priority: Sector > Area > HUD icon, and the areas are sorted in the order: A > B > C > D > E > X. The final treasures in this category are the ones that appear on the Pikmin Park. This category is represented with the Loop of Beginnings's icon. The European name will be provided below the US name with an EU marker if different from the US name.
