From GameWinners
Get various colored Pikmin
You can get the Red Pikmin when you start the game (Impact Site).
You can get Yellow Pikmin when you get to the next area (Forest
Of Hope). You can get the Blue Pikmin in the third area (Forest
Navel).
Get 25 Pikmin on first day
Go in front of your ship. Go to the left and when he
and the Pikmin runs on top of it, there will be a red pellet.
Get more Pikmin
- Note the color of the pellets when you have the Pikmin carry them to their "Onions." The destination that Pikmin will carry objects to depends on the members of the group. If there are more blue Pikmin than red Pikmin in the group, they will bring it to the blue hive. When the same color pellet is brought to the corresponding hive color it will produce more new Pikmin than if the colors does not match.
- Use the following trick to get 600 Pikmin in nine days. Before doing this, getting lots of ship parts in as little days as possible.Go to the first level and have at least 30 Blue Pikmin. Go up the bow ramp and break down the wall. You will see clams. Go up to attack them and get the pearl. Do this repeatedly, then keep doing it for nine days
Blue Pikmin
Blue Pikmin are amphibious. They can be on both land and water.
They also can serve as lifeguards for drowning Pikmin (Red or
Yellow).
Red Pikmin
Red Pikmin cannot be harmed by fire. They work well in the Distant
Spring and the Navel areas.
Purple Pikmin
If the Puffstool in the Forest Naval spores your Pikmin, they
will become Purple and sprout a mushroom on their heads. They
will run around, attacking you and nearby Pikmin. If you are out
of it range it will be near the Puffstool. Note: The spores only
last for awhile.
Yellow Pikmin
Take a Yellow Pikmin acquired on Day 2 and let any animal that
can eat a Pikmin eat one with a bomb. Once this is done, the creature
will chew on the Yellow Pikmin, and the bomb will explode inside
them, killing it in one hit. This also kills the Yellow Pikmin,
but is very effective way to defeat a Bos,s such as the giant
bird in area 2, very quickly.
Flower Pikmin
When Flower Pikmin die, they leave a seed behind. It will sprout
into a Leaf Pikmin the next day.
Leaf to Flower Pikmin
At the second site, if you have any Leaf or Bud Pikmin, separate
them from the Flower Pikmin. Take the Leaf and Bud Pikmin. From
Olimar's ship, go forward, then go left. You will see a patch
of grass. Use your C-Rush to lead them into the grass and they
will start working. After a few seconds, they pull up yellow globs
that instantly turns them into Flower Pikmin. Note: Not all of
your Pikmin will turn into flowers. Another place that has this
effect is in the same area. When you are next to the Red Onion,
turn your view to find another patch of grass. Let your Pikmin
work over there and they will pull out more nutrients. This trick
is useless if your Pikmin have flowers already. Once all or most
of your Pikmin have had some of the nutrients, call them back.
Do not waste it. This is hard to come by -- do not let the Flower
Pikmin have any. This can be done once per day with any color
Pikmin.

Faster Pikmin
If you have a single Pikmin that is slow, hold A. You will
pick up your Pikmin and can run at the same speed you move without
the Pikmin in your hands.
Keeping Pikmin safe
- When your Pikmin are carrying things to the ship or Onion and get attacked, lay in front of the monster until they are safe.
- When collecting part number 1, your Pikmin can get caught in the engine and die. To keep them safe, throw your Pikmin on top of the part. Note: This does not work all the time.
Start with 24 flower Pikmin
At the start of the first day at the Impact Site, notice
that you will have no time at the top. Feel free to get all the
Pikmin you can into the Onion and then just wait, or run Omar
around and practice moves. Because there is no time limit, wait
until all your Pikmin grow to the flower stage. This gives you
24 free flower Pikmin to start the game
Save Pikmin from drowning
- Repeatedly blow your whistle at Pikmin to drag them up onto land.
- To keep your Red or Yellow Pikmin from drowning, have Blue Pikmin by the border. Do not have them selected. If a Red or Yellow Pikmin falls in the water near your Blue Pikmin, they will go to the Pikmin and throw them on land.
- If your Yellow or Red Pikmin are drowning, quickly grab your Blue Pikmin and bring them into the water. Ungroup them and they will automatically toss the other Pikmin to safety. Note: You need to be near a ledge or the shore in order for this to work.
- If you accidentally or intentionally put Red or Yellow Pikmin in the water, you can either press B and try to get them out of danger or you can put a group of nearby Blue Pikmin in the water near the suffering Pikmin and press X to deselect all of them. The Blue Pikmin should throw their fellow Pikmin out of the water towards land.
and
- When your Pikmin are drowning, repeatedly press B to call them out of the water before they die.
Save burning Pikmin
If you whistle at burning Pikmin, you can usually put
the fire out.
Get carried to Onion
Press Down and Olimar will lay down. If he has
any Pikmin with him, five of them will carry him to the Onion
and the rest will stay behind.
