Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers is a fanon game created by CarrotStilts1. It is a loose adaption of a Pikcanon-NOT game made by the same creator called Pikmin: 100 Days Without A Ship, but with drastic changes to lots of aspects to the point of being based off of it.
Plot
Prologue
Olimar and Louie turn into their shifts at Hocotate Freight. At the job, Olimar begins unloading Hocotation onions into a box. Suddenly, he is interrupted by the President, who informs Olimar that his radars have picked up more treasure in another region of PNF-404. The President informs Olimar that this region might just have the most treasure yet, and he wishes for Olimar to investigate. Olimar looks down, upset, and recounts that he never sees his family thanks to the planet, but the President informs him that it's only one cave he wishes for Olimar to explore. Olimar complies and asks if he can use the Ship instead of the S.S. Dolphin since bad things always happen with the ships at some point. The President accepts his request, and Olimar gets Louie and informs him they are going back to PNF-404, to which Louie begins licking his lips.
Touchdown in the Quay
The Ship lands on an island somewhere in the ocean, where the crew is surrounded by numerous sea stacks they can use to get across the area. They soon find five Red Pikmin protecting their Onion from a Puffy Blowhog by using a bomb rock. When the Pikmin tosses the bomb rock at the Puffy Blowhog, however, it blows it into their Onion, the explosion slightly damaging it. Olimar and Louie help the five Red Pikmin bring the Blowhog onto the ground, at which point, it pushes the Pikmin off by inflating and flies away. After that situation, the crew needs to push down a paper bag for use as a ramp to the rest of the area. At this point, the Pellet Posy tutorial is put into play.
After pushing down the bag, Olimar and Louie find a small area blocked off by a dirt wall. After destroying it, they try to advance into the area, only to discover that sundown is approaching. Olimar and Louie depart for the day. The day after, they explore the new area and discover a cave they name Humpback Heights. Upon extracting the treasure from there, Olimar and Louie get ready to leave for Hocotate. While on the Ship, however, Louie shows Olimar a sample of a gelatinous purple substance he found in the cave. Suddenly, it begins to enlarge at an alarming rate, pushing Olimar, Louie, and most of The Ship's machinery, outside. The Ship detaches its Research Pod form and sucks up the blob to stop it... only for it to fester within before consuming the three and launching them at a nearby region. The mass then takes off with the Ship's body.
Detour to the Thicket
The following day, the three find themselves in the Thicket of Nourishment. They are worried about how they will make it out alive, but soon find a cave they name Fang Chute and, after defeating a monstrous Rootroosting Slapvipe, find a Violet Candypop Bud for Purple Pikmin. The Purple Pikmin are able to help construct a makeshift ship from a log section, nicknamed the Lumberlift. It gets carried by the Master Onion. After this, the first true day begins.
After making frivolous progress through this forested area, Olimar and Louie break down a barricade with their Purple Pikmin and gain access to a cavernous area. With a treasure in their sights, Olimar and Louie go to retrieve it, only for the ground to give way underneath them. Falling into the abyss, they find a pair of Slate Candypop Buds, which give them access to Rock Pikmin and allow them to work their way back up. Eventually, the squad crosses paths with a tribe of 20 Rock Pikmin trying to reach their Onion from behind a crystal wall. After tearing the wall down, they find themselves on the other side of the pit. The crew builds a bridge over it and snags the treasure, which subsequently improves the Research Pod's radar and allows the Lumberlift to land in a new location.
The next day, the crew decide to set their sights on this new area, the reason being that this new area has a tall, mountainous spire. Ever since the Hocotate Ship's body was stolen, the crew struggled significantly with establishing a connection with the President. A high enough vantage point could be just what they needed...
Exploring the Windswept Wonderland
In the blizzarding Windswept Wonderland, Olimar and Louie discover that the landing site is in a lowered piece of ground, a paper bag is just out of reach. If they could reach it, their expedition could run smoothly. They find a cave called Connoisseur's Cache, full of greedy creatures. After defeating the Sausageborb living in its deepest recess, they find a colony of Yellow Pikmin trying to activate an electrode to lower a gate. After ten more Yellow Pikmin are made with a Golden Candypop Bud, the electrode activates and the gate opens, revealing the inactive Yellow Onion that the Research Pod fosters. The crew then uses a geyser to reach the surface. They find themselves on higher ground and push the bag down. With all this dealt with, the squad advances to the spire, which is actually a Holland-style, brick-and-mortar windmill with a slightly caved-in roof.
Slowly advancing the tower, the squad fights legions of Phosbats with light sources like electrodes and Common Glowcaps, and reaches the summit of the windmill. Staring down the open roof onto the farmland below, Olimar briefly feels at ease, as if his journey is nearly over. Suddenly, a brumal Shaggy Long Legs descends behind them, much to Olimar and Louie's collective shock. After battling the hairy colossus, Olimar and Louie reign victorious. With the snowstorm clearing, Olimar manages to establish a secure connection with the President. As it turns out, the President was also quite flustered, being both worried and mildly annoyed that Olimar never responded to any of his e-mails. Olimar explains the situation, and the President is fuming, especially since Hocotate Freight can't meet their bottom line without his competency. Despite his personal desires, the President begrudgingly agrees to send an emergency escape pod. He chooses to send it to an arid mesa called the Nomadic Butte, as to avoid PNF-404's asteroid field.

Pikmin
- Red Pikmin – found defending their Onion in Creature's Quay, Red Pikmin are resistant to fire and have a slightly above-average damage output.
- Purple Pikmin – now being stored in the Master Onion, Purple Pikmin can collect sources of nourishment much easier than other Pikmin due to their strength of 10 and can stun enemies, but they yield severely fewer seeds than others. Essentially, it would take at least 3 Red Bulborbs for 1 Purple Pikmin seed.
- Rock Pikmin – they are immune to blunt force, provided they aren't caught between the force in question and a hard material like metal. They are first found in the caves of the Thicket of Nourishment.
Locations
- Creature's Quay – a bunch of islands and sea rocks in the ocean. On certain days, the water level will change, though Blue Pikmin will be able to control the water.
- Thicket of Nourishment – a large, expansive forest bustling with enemies and featuring a river. It is on a cliffside overlooking a dilapidated city.
- Windswept Wonderland – a snowy outcropping inspired by the Distant Tundra primarily. It appears to be located in the British countryside, near a farmland. It also takes minor cues from the Netherlands, as evidenced by the fields of dormant tulips.
- Nomadic Butte – a desert plateau high above ground level. Cacti and savannah vegetation are common, and Pikmin can be accidentally thrown off of the cliffside into the pit below. The Venowraith's presence is imminent, as purple crystals and floating blobs of venom are everywhere before its defeat.
- Gloomy Mire – a swampland in the southern United States of America, it is split in two parts: a sunny outcropping, and a shaded, dark bogmire. Each one has unique enemies to behold.
- Misty Badlands – a fjord bordering a taiga forest named so for the permanent veil of blue mist. Because of this, it seems as if it is always sunrise in this mysterious land.
- Everscathed Peaks – the final main area; a desolate island holding a scorched redwood forest. A massive volcano looms over the land, and is bound to go off at any minute.
- Island of Statues – an extra area unlocked after Everscathed Peaks becomes available. It's a peaceful, sunny island near Misty Badlands where time never stops. Through scanning amiibo, extra caves could be unlocked and explored to collect said amiibos as treasure. For every cave completed, the overworld music gets more lively, and some Pellet Posies even begin growing.
