List
Pikmin behavior 1
- US text:
- “Why do you think the Pikmin carry those yummy fruits back to the ship for us rather than eating them?”
- “Pikmin seem to gain nourishment from pellets and native life-forms. They don't seem interested in fruit.{0E0017000200020010}But it's all so tasty... Maybe the Pikmin don't have a sense of taste.”
- “Well, that's perfect for us, don't you think? If they started eating our fruit, we'd be in quite an awful predicament!”
- “We're lucky that they're such hard workers...and that they don't seem to like fruit.”
- Europe text:
- “Why do you think the Pikmin carry this delicious fruit back to the ship for us? Why don't they eat it?”
- “Pikmin seem to gain nourishment from pellets and creatures. They don't seem interested in fruit at all.”
- “But fruit is so tasty... Maybe the Pikmin don't have a sense of taste.”
- “Well that's perfect for us, don't you think? If they started carrying dead creatures back to the Drake, things would get horribly cluttered!”
- “We're lucky that they're such hard workers.”
Pikmin behavior 2
- US text:
- “Those Pikmin are so brave and loyal.”
- “When I think about them fighting and risking their lives for us, it just tugs at my heartstrings.”
- “{0E0000000200020064}{0E0000000200020064}Yes. Loyalty. Dedication. I've always said that these are the most important things in life!”
- “{0E0000000200020064}{0E0000000200020064}I thought you said that food was the most important thing in life, Captain?”
- “Well, yes, of course, food, too.”
- “And what about family? Or friends? Those are pretty important too, don't you think?”
- “Let's just pretend I didn't say anything, Alph.”
- Europe text:
- “Those Pikmin are so brave and loyal.”
- “When I think about them fighting and risking their lives for us, it just tugs at my heartstrings.”
- “Yes. Loyalty. Dedication. I've always said that these are the most important things in life!”
- “What about food, Captain?!”
- “Well, yes, of course, food, too.”
- “And what about family? And friends? Those are pretty important too, don't you think?”
- “Let's just pretend I didn't say anything, Alph.”
Pikmin behavior 3
- US text:
- “So, it seems that each kind of Pikmin has its own set of special abilities, doesn't it?”
- “Right! Let's take stock of our conflict-resolution capabilities!”
- “So, we have fire-resistant Red Pikmin. And then we have hard-bodied Rock Pikmin.”
- “All led by the sharp-minded and quick-witted leader, Captain Charlie.”
- “...Right. We also have shock-resistant Yellow Pikmin and the water-resistant Blue Pikmin.”
- “But where would they all be without a proper leader who possesses—”
- “And the flying Winged Pikmin.”
- “Captain...can I offer you a little piece of advice...um, sir?”
- Europe text:
- “Right! Let's take stock of our conflict-resolution capabilities!”
- “So, we have fire-resistant Red Pikmin. And then we have hard-bodied Rock Pikmin.”
- “All led by the sharp-minded and quick-witted leader, Captain Char—”
- “We also have shock-resistant Yellow Pikmin and the water-resistant Blue Pikmin.”
- “But where would they all be without an heroic leader who—”
- “And the flying Winged Pikmin.”
- “I admire your tenacity, Captain, I really do.”

Pikmin behavior 5
- US text:
- “What's in that nectar those Pikmin were consuming?”
- “Whatever it is, it seems to nurture some sort of flowery transformation in the Pikmin.”
- “That nectar could contain some sort of energy concentrate.”
- “I bet that tastes so good...”
- “It's OK...little bitter.”
- “What?! I can't believe you would do something like that!”
- “{0E0015000000020000}Have you sprouted flowers yet?”
- Europe text:
- “I wonder what's in the nectar those Pikmin were consuming.”
- “The nectar has enough nutrients to transform Pikmin into flowers.”
- “So it could contain a concentrated form of this planet's energy.”
- “That would be amazing! I wonder what it tastes like...”
- “I tried a bit when no one was looking, but it was bitter.”
- “Really?! You weren't worried the nectar might be poisonous?”
- “{0E0015000000020000}(Now that's dedication for you!)”}}
Pikmin behavior 6
- US text:
- “Pikmin always seem to do things in groups. They appear to have a strong sense of camaraderie.”
- “Hmm... I'm not sure about that.”
- “They do things together because they're following orders, right?”
- “It's not camaraderie. That's loyalty!”
- “I always say, the most important thing in the world is loyalty!”
- “With all due respect, Captain, last night you said the most important thing in the world was dinner.”
- “Yes, well...the juice was very good.”
- Europe text:
- “Pikmin always seem to do things in groups. I wonder if they have a strong sense of camaraderie.”
- “Hmm... I don't know about that.”
- “I mean, they do things together because they're following orders, right?”
- “It doesn't appear to be the same kind of camaraderie we Koppaites have.”
- “I'd risk my life to protect either of you if you were in danger!”
- “Especially you, Britt—”
- “Thank you, Captain! That's awfully gallant of you!”
- “Ahem, yes... Just leave it to me!”
Pikmin behavior 7
- US text:
- “When we go back to Koppai, what do you suppose will happen to all the Pikmin?”
- “I wonder that myself. It seems that we have played a part in the propagation of their species.”
- “Slow down there, egghead! Maybe we've just been helping them reproduce!”
- “Right... Or that.”
- “So...if that's the case, then what will happen when we leave?”
- “Perhaps one of us should stay behind...Captain.”
- “That would be interesting. Maybe I'll keep an eye out for some beachfront property...”
- Europe text:
- “When we go back to Koppai, what do you suppose will happen to all the Pikmin?”
- “I wonder that myself. After all, it's only through our leadership that they've been able to propagate.”
- “Therefore, when we leave...”
- “Brittany... I know what you're thinking...”
- “Though it pains me to say this, the fate of the leaderless is a bleak fate indeed.”
- “Perhaps you should stay here with the Pikmin then, Captain?”
- “Err... What?”
Red Pikmin
- US text:
- Europe text:
- “Red Pikmin seem more ferocious than other types of Pikmin.”
- “That's a good observation. You wouldn't have guessed it from their cute little faces.”
- “Come to think of it, Alph, you've been with the Red Pikmin since crash-landing here, right?”
- “Yes, we've been through thick and thin together. I've grown rather fond of them!”
Rock Pikmin
- US text:
- Europe text:
Yellow Pikmin
- US text:
- “It's nice to know that Yellow Pikmin can be thrown to high places.”
- “That's because they're so light.”
- “...Yes, Alph. However, I still don't understand how they aren't hurt by electric shocks.”
- “That's been on my mind, too. As a keen engineer, that's incredibly fascinating to me!”
- “Maybe their oversized ears distribute currents in the air, which grounds them...”
- “No offense, Alph. But maybe you should just stick to the machines.”
- Europe text:
- “It makes sense that Yellow Pikmin can be thrown to high places.”
- “That's because they're so light.”
- “Right! However, I still don't get how they're shock resistant.”
- “That's been on my mind, too. Being an engineer, it's incredibly fascinating to me!”
- “Maybe those big ears of theirs distribute current in the air, acting as a ground...”
- “No offence, but I sincerely doubt it.”
Winged Pikmin
- US text:
- “Winged Pikmin seem to be weaker in battle when compared to other types of Pikmin.”
- “But the power of flight makes them an incredibly valuable asset.”
- “That's something other Pikmin can't do.”
- “Good point, Captain! So it's all about positioning them to make the most of their abilities.”
- “Yes, but...that's pretty much the case for all types of Pikmin.”
- Europe text:
- “For some reason, Winged Pikmin seem to be weak in battle compared to other types of Pikmin.”
- “True, but they can fly.”
- “That's something other Pikmin are incapable of.”
- “So it's all about positioning them to make the most of their abilities.”
- “Yep. But that's pretty much the case for all types of Pikmin.”

Gameplay 1
- US text:
- “Listen up! This planet's got some tricky terrain.”
- “If there's a ledge we can't reach on foot, we can toss someone to a strategic spot and forge a path.”
- “In terms of throwing order, who goes first? Brittany?”
- “Excuse me? Don't be ridiculous!”
- “It's obvious that in situations like that, the captain should be the first to volunteer for being thrown!”
- “Exactly! Wait...what?”
- “Yes! Get ready to fly, Captain!”
- Europe text:
- “Listen up! This planet's got some tricky terrain.”
- “If there's a ledge we can't reach on foot, we'll need to throw a crew member up there to forge a path.”
- “In terms of throwing order, who goes first? Brittany?”
- “Excuse me? Don't be ridiculous!”
- “It's obvious that in situations like that, the Captain should fly in first to smash things up!”
- “Huh?”
- “Oh, yeah! Like a cannonball or something, right?”
Pikmin behavior 8
- US text:
- “The buds on Pikmin's heads can bloom into flowers.”
- “These flower Pikmin seem to be really lively.”
- “Maybe we can learn something from them. What if we took that extra time for ourselves, as well?”
- “Yeah! Maybe we're late bloomers!”
- “If we ever get too anxious, we should just nip that in the bud and everything will be coming up roses!”
- “Uh-oh...”
- “I'm not one for flowery speech, but we should stop beating around the bush, Brittany! Wait...I can't stop!”
- “Alph! You're shaking like a leaf! Oh no...now I've got it, too.”
- “I think I'm just exhausted. This will clear up if I just hit the hay...”
- Europe text:
- “The buds on Pikmin's heads can bloom into flowers.”
- “These flower Pikmin seem to be really lively.”
- “Maybe we can learn something from them. Maybe we just need to take time in order to bloom, too.”
- “Yeah! If we get too anxious, we should just nip that in the bud and everything will be coming up roses!”
- “Uh-oh...”
- “I'm not one for flowery speech, but we should stop beating around the bush, Brittany! Wait...I can't stop!”
- “Alph! You're shaking like a leaf! Oh no... Now I'm doing it, too.”

Pikmin behavior 10
- US text:
- “Those rocks the Pikmin were carrying certainly were peculiar.”
- “I detected high levels of energy coming from inside the rocks.”
- “We should secure them and handle them with the utmost caution!”
- “We should test them to see what would happen if we threw them at a target. A target like......”
- “The captain, for instance.”
- “I'm sorry, what was that?”
- Europe text:
- “Those rocks the Pikmin were carrying were quite peculiar.”
- “I detected high levels of energy emanating from inside them.”
- “And I detect a whiff of danger! We should handle them with care!”
- “We should experiment with them. They might be useful if thrown at a target. A target like...”
- “...the Captain, for instance?”
- “I'm sorry, what was that?”
- “Oh nothing, just thinking aloud.”
Gameplay 2
- US text:
- “When the sun is going down and time is short, what's our best course of action?”
- “Straying from the ship poses too many risks, so I stay close by and try to make more Pikmin.”
- “I just keep on looking for fruit right up until the last second.”
- “Interesting. Myself, I—”
- “This is terrible! I'm no good! All I think about is saving my own skin!”
- “I need to learn from your example, Brittany, and take a few more risks for the good of our mission.”
- Europe text:
- “When the sun is going down and time is short what's your preferred course of action?”
- “Straying from the ship poses too many risks, so I stay close by and try to make more Pikmin.”
- “I just keep on looking for fruit right up until the last second.”
- “Interesting. I myself, think that—”
- “Darn it! I'm too cautious! All I think about is saving my own skin!”
- “I need to learn from your example, Brittany, and take a few more risks for the good of our mission.”
Pikmin behavior 11
- US text:
- “The color of the pellets carried to the Onion seems to be related to the number of Pikmin that sprout.”
- “Good eye, Alphie!”
- “When Pikmin take a pellet of the same color back to the Onion, more seeds are produced.”
- “Hmm...”
- “So that means we should try to get Red Pikmin to retrieve all red pellets. Makes perfect sense.”
- Europe text:
- “The colour of the pellet carried to the Onion seems to affect the number of Pikmin produced.”
- “An excellent observation, Alph!”
- “When Pikmin take a pellet of the same colour back to the Onion, it tends to fire out more seeds.”
- “Hmm...”
- “So that means we should try to get Red Pikmin to retrieve all the red pellets. It makes perfect sense.”
Pikmin behavior 12
- US text:
- “When you spray Pikmin with Ultra-Spicy Spray, they get really fired up.”
- “Pikmin in that state move really fast, and their attack power is boosted too!”
- “If we spray it on the captain, maybe he'll become even stronger.”
- “Wahaha! Alph, don't joke about that!”
- “(I wasn't joking... I sprayed him when he wasn't looking...)”
- Europe text:
- “Spraying Pikmin with Ultra-Spicy Spray seems to get them really fired up!”
- “True. The spray seems to boost both the speed of their movements and the strength of their attacks.”
- “If we spray it on the Captain, maybe he'll become even stronger.”
- “Hahaha! Now now Alph, don't joke about things like that!”
- “(Actually... I've already tried spraying him with it. He didn't notice.)”
Pikmin behavior 13
- US text:
- “When you spray Pikmin with Ultra-Spicy Spray, they get really fired up.”
- “Pikmin in that state seem to move really fast, and their attack power is boosted too!”
- “Hee hee! Maybe we should spray some of it on you, Alphie!”
- “Brittany! Don't joke about things like that!”
- {{transcript|Would it be bad if I already sprayed you when you weren't looking?
- Europe text:
- “When you spray Pikmin with Ultra-Spicy Spray, they get really fired up.”
- “Pikmin in that state seem to move really fast, and their attack power is boosted too!”
- “Hee hee! Maybe we should spray some of it on you, Alph!”
- “Brittany! Don't joke about things like that!”
- “(Too late! I've already tried spraying some on him.)”
Red Pikmin (all leaders)
- US text:
- “Red Pikmin seem more ferocious than other types of Pikmin.”
- “That's a good observation. You wouldn't have guessed it from their cute little faces.”
- “Compared to the three of us, I'd say Red Pikmin are most like the captain. What do you think?”
- “Did you not hear me? I said the Red Pikmin were cute.”
- “Ahem! I'm standing right here, you know!”
- Europe text:
- “Red Pikmin seem more ferocious than other types of Pikmin.”
- “That's a good observation. You wouldn't have guessed it from their cute little faces.”
- “Error: String exceeds 10,000 character limit.”
- “What?! I don't believe it...”
- “Well there's only one thing for it... We need to make finding more food our number one priority!”
Got all fruits
- US text:
- “It looks like we've gathered all the food there is to find on this planet!”
- “Yay, us! We'll bring the seeds back to Koppai! Thanks to us, our planet is saved!”
- “But we shouldn't celebrate just yet.”
- “If we don't recover the cosmic-drive key before our juice runs out, we won't be able to return home!”
- “I suppose we'll need to be more systematic in our search.”
- Europe text:
- “It looks like we've gathered all the food there is to find on this planet!”
- “Hooray! We'll take the seeds back to Koppai, and our planet will be saved!”
- “However, it's still a little bit early to be celebrating.”
- “We now have a fixed time frame in which to recover the cosmic drive key, or we won't be able to return home!”
- “I suppose we need to be more systematic in our search.”
Need to rescue Olimar
- US text:
- “Curses! Captain Olimar has been captured...”
- “Thankfully, the KopPad is picking up a life signal, which means that Olimar is still alive!”
- “Whew! I thought he was a goner after that gold creature gobbled him up.”
- “Well, it may only be a matter of time before that happens! Rescuing him needs to be our top priority!”
- Europe text:
- “Curses! Captain Olimar has been captured...”
- “The KopPad is picking up a life sign though! That means that Mr Olimar is alive!”
- “Thank goodness for that! I thought he'd been devoured by that golden creature...”
- “Well, it may only be a matter of time before that happens! Rescuing him needs to be our top priority!”

- “What's that signal coming from over there?”
- “A signal like that? If it’s not coming from our ship or one of us...maybe it’s Olimar!”
- “With a transmitter that strong, it must be planetary explorers like us. It must be the Hocotatian.”
- “And where we find Olimar, that's where we'll find our cosmic-drive key! Let's track the signal to its source!”

Night where Louie is first rescued 1
- US text:
- “Olimar hasn't woken up since we brought him aboard...”
- “Hey...I know that space suit! It puts you into a deep sleep if you experience any big surprises.”
- “I missed an entire surprise birthday party once because of those suits!”
- “What are we supposed to do now?!”
- “{0E0015000000020300}Zzz...”
- “Would you mind keeping it down?”
- “Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do. We need to get him to tell us where the cosmic-drive key is.”
- “And in order for him to do that, we need him to wake up on his own!”
- “Let me try slapping him.”
- “No, no! Trust me, we can't do anything once that suit kicks in.”
- “We just need to keep an eye on him.”
- Europe text:
- “Olimar doesn't seem to be waking up.”
- “That's to be expected. Who knows what that terrible creature did to him.”
- “Nevertheless, we need to get him to tell us where the cosmic drive key is.”
- “{0E0015000000020300}Zzz...”
- “Yes, we'll need that if we want to return home!”
- “Well, it doesn't seem like there's much we can do right now. We've worked hard today. Why don't we take it easy tonight?”
- “Good idea. There's a chance he'll wake up tomorrow. Let's make it an early night.”

- US text:
- “Olimar hasn't woken up since we brought him aboard...”
- “Ah yes...I know that space suit. It puts you into a deep sleep if you experience any big surprises.”
- “I missed an entire surprise birthday party once because of those.”
- “So, what should we do?!”
- “{0E0015000000020300}Zzz...”

- Europe text:
- “Mr Olimar hasn't budged since we brought him on board.”
- “That's strange. There's nothing wrong with him physically. I'd have expected him to be awake by now.”
- “Maybe we should try slapping him.”
- “{0E0015000000020300}....”
- “We can't do that! When conversing with aliens, the first rule is to "be nice."”
- “Well, let's monitor his condition until tomorrow. I'm sure that with my expert negotia—”
- “I feel very sleepy all of a sudden. I think I'll turn in for the night...”
- “Me, too.”
Night where Louie is recaptured==
- US text:
- “...So it turns out, this isn't Captain Olimar at all, but rather some other fellow named Louie.”
- “And I suppose that fuselage we saw must have been the remains of Olimar and Louie's ship.”
- “Seems like that huge monster really did a number on it, though...”
- “Food!”
- “Is that all you think about? Didn't we just feed you?!”
- “Ah... It's great to be reunited with my rubber ducky! With him by my side, I feel like I can achieve anything!”
- “Umm... Is anyone listening to me?”
- “Louie doesn't have our cosmic-drive key. We need to find out if he knows where the real Olimar is!”

- “Curses! We lost a lot of good Pikmin out there. And on my watch, too! I failed them...”
- “It wasn't just your fault, Captain.”
- “What are you talking about, Alph?! Of course it was the captain's fault! He IS the captain, after all. Those poor Pikmin...”
- “What?”
- “Uh... Um... Well, from this point forward, we'll do even better for the sake of the Pikmin!”
- Europe text:
- “Curses! We lost a lot of good Pikmin out there. And on my watch, too! I failed them...”
- “Don't be too hard on yourself, Captain. It's wasn't entirely your fault.”
- “Actually, I'd say it WAS more or less entirely your fault. Those poor Pikmin...”
- “Huh?”
- “Anyway, we mustn't give in! We need to pick ourselves up again and carry on with our mission.”
