They are discovered in [[The Impact Site]], along with their Onion, just a small walk away from the landing zone. When the dormant Onion wakes up and ejects a seed, and [[Olimar]] plucks said seed, it marks the first time Olimar ever sees a Pikmin. Here, 25 Red Pikmin must be grown in order to carry back the [[Main Engine]], so that Olimar can exit the planet's surface during the night. | ||
In ''Pikmin 2'', the first Red Pikmin are found by Captain Olimar. There are 5 Pikmin fighting a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]] in the [[Valley of Repose]] right next to where Olimar lands. | In ''Pikmin 2'', the first Red Pikmin, and indeed, the first Pikmin in this trip, are found by Captain Olimar. There are 5 Pikmin fighting a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]] in the [[Valley of Repose]] right next to where Olimar lands. Whistling them gives Olimar control over them, which he uses to defeat the beast. After the battle, once [[Louie]] has regained consciousness, he walks a short distance and finds the red Onion. From there, Louie builds up the population in order to crush a [[paper bag]] separating him from Olimar, reunite with him, and collect the [[Courage Reactor]]. | ||
In ''Pikmin 3'', the story begins with [[Charlie]] discovering [[Yellow Pikmin]] and ending up captured by the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]]. After this prologue, [[Alph]] wakes up in a small puddle at the [[Tropical Wilds]]. He walks a short distance before seeing a Red Pikmin, which surprises both of them. | In ''Pikmin 3'', the story begins with [[Charlie]] discovering [[Yellow Pikmin]] and ending up captured by the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]]. After this prologue, [[Alph]] wakes up in a small puddle at the [[Tropical Wilds]]. He walks a short distance before seeing a Red Pikmin, which surprises both of them. After walking a bit more, he finds three wild Red Pikmin trying to free their Onion from a branch. Alph [[throw]]s the Pikmin at it and succeeds in freeing it. He then proceeds to grow his army up to 20 (21 if the one sitting on the pot is obtained), so that he can push the [[cardboard box]] and get back to the [[S.S. Drake]], as well as try to rescue [[Brittany]]. | ||

**{{icon|Fiery Bulblax|y}}: Only Red Pikmin can withstand its flames. However, if the enemy is submerged, its fire goes out. Even with the fire active, [[Purple Pikmin]] can damage it with their impact damage, and [[White Pikmin]] can be ingested to poison it. In certain caves, it can be lured into walking into the [[abyss]] as well. | |||
