Pikmin: Voyage in Space is a fanon game created by CJ-Does-Pikmin. It takes place after Pikmin 3. This game is available for PC, Switch, and GameCube.

Plot

Opening

Olimar and Louie arrive back on Hocotate in the company ship, which was lost during the events of Pikmin 3 but regained in Olimar's Comeback, and find Chacho waiting for them. Chacho quickly exclaims that he had set up several side projects. These included the "PNForaging Project", "Arma's Bakery", and "Pixie's Polishing Service". Unfortunately, the side projects did not reel in enough Pokos to cover the loans, and Chacho has been sent back into debt. He said that by now, PNF-404 must be low on treasure after the number of missions, and notes that he will be on the lookout for new planets to go to while the search on PNF-404 is ongoing. He notes that Arma, the manager of Arma's Bakery, has already been sent out to PNF-404 on another ship. Chacho quickly goes over the debt number of 10,000,000... The only problem is that PNF-404 doesn't seem to have any truly valuable items on it besides the fuel, Sparklium. Chacho sends Olimar and Louie back on the ship and to PNF-404.

In a second version of the opening, a dark figure quickly darts behind the ship while Chacho talks to Olimar and Louie. This figure is noted later in the story, although they can be seen hanging onto the ship in both versions of the opening when Olimar and Louie depart for PNF-404.

Section A

The S.S. Dolphin prototype flies over the Wistful Wild but the mysterious figure clinging on pulls it down, causing them to crashland in a nearby area. The ship seems fine, having skidded across water that had accumulated on what looks to be a McDonald's takeout bag. Olimar gets out of the ship, but Louie is missing... Olimar is ejected and the Ship's pod tells him about the disconnection with Louie.

“Bzzzzzrt!! Olimar, how did you crash? I thought you were supposed to be a pilot! Why did you put so much weight in the cargo hold? And we've lost Louie, too!”

The camera switches to Olimar as the ship guides the player on how to move leaders around. Then Olimar is led around a bend, where he encounters three Blue Pikmin attempting to defeat a Waddlepus. The ship then sends another message.

“Quick, whistle those Blue Pikmin with <keybind>!”

Upon whistling the Blue Pikmin, a cutscene will play where the Blue Pikmin do a little dance and hop in the air before staring into the camera. The ship delivers another line of text.

“BZZZRT! Strange that we found Blues before Reds, but you know... At least we have Pikmin to help us out.”

Olimar then notices something on the ground, picking it up to reveal a data file that reads "Press <keybind> to throw Pikmin!" and then forces the player into throwing a Blue Pikmin onto the Waddlepus, causing it to go into a pipe as the other Blue Pikmin, if they weren't already whistled, look around sadly, before rushing to Olimar.

Upon further investigation, there is a thin paper box that needs to be pushed over to go up a small hill. The box only requires 3 Pikmin to push it, which is easier said than done. Upon getting to the top, there is a crushable paper bag and the ship will send another message.

“BZZZRRT! Captain Olimar, I've picked up Louie's signal! He's alright, just stuck. Looks like you two are going to need to work this out! Use <keybind> to switch captains!”

Louie stands beside a Spongy Mushroom, which presumably broke his fall. The area is covered in mold. An Onion seems to be entangled in it, too. Louie ventures a small bit further and finds a weird pool of acid... Suddenly, Louie notices something unseen as it is out of view. The ship sends another message.

“ZZRT– Louie? Louie! What do you see down there? What's startled you?”

Louie bounces backward, revealing a White Pikmin. Louie begins running around frantically, like when he finds Red Pikmin in Pikmin 2, before stopping and turning around to look at it. The White Pikmin then looks at him and spits acid at a nearby rock, leaving a permanent charred spot in it. Louie just shrugs and the camera pans back out.

The player is then supposed to throw White Pikmin on the Poison Spotcaps around the area that are forcing the Onion down with their mold. Once the Poison Spotcaps are destroyed, the Onion will lift itself off the ground, revealing that it is indeed a White Onion. The Onion then spits out one seed, the minimum required to break a Pellet Posy by smacking it. The ship sends another message after the leaf sprouts from the ground.

“BZZZRT! Louie, use the <keybind> to pluck Pikmin in the ground!”

Once the White Pikmin is plucked, it will play its proper introduction cutscene, with music this time, as it dances around and then coughs smoke into the air. The player is then tasked with collecting more White Pikmin by breaking the Pellet Posies and delivering the pellets to the Onion. With 17 White Pikmin, the player can head up the slope on Louie's side and throw the White Pikmin, and Olimar can throw the three Blue Pikmin. The bag will be collapsed, letting the two captains meet. The ship responds to this.

“Louie, Captain Olimar! You're reunited at last!”

The two captains approach each other and then begin walking towards the ship.

“Well, you hard-working men, should head back in and get some rest. We'll continue searching later.”

The ship beams the captains back into their cockpits. The White Pikmin run off to their Onion and the Blue Pikmin quickly jump into the ship's hull for the night. The ship flies off into the atmosphere as four adult Grungy Bulborbs attempt to bite it. The camera pans up as the ship flies offscreen and the Treasure Report screen appears. Once that is passed, it switches to the Pikmin gained screen, followed by the rations screen, and then finally the Mail screen. There's an email from Chacho.

“Olimar, Louie! I've found another area around that seems to have more treasure!! You need to head there, quickly!”

The next morning, some rations are used up, two of the 10 they have. The next day the player is guided to the Sweltering Sands, a hot desert oasis. Looking around, the player will find the actual oasis, which seems to be forming a moat around a small hill, though Olimar thinks it's an island. There's a big tree casting a shadow across the entire oasis, and directly under the tree is a cave entrance. Walking along the water is an Ironshell Aristocrab, and the Strange Spout is poking out of the ground with a hose going through the sand and popping out before disappearing in the deepest part of the Oasis. Unfortunately, the player cannot reach the oasis island without the Swim Suit upgrade, which is gained from the Strange Spout seen in the sand. The path the Blue Pikmin take through the water doesn't lead through danger, as the quickest way to leave is getting the Strange Spout.

There's a Windy Blowhog blowing air at a cave entrance, covering it in sand. Upon defeating the Windy Blowhog, Pikmin can dig up the entrance to the Tropical Sauna, which contains the Blue Onion, which roots itself in the cave, letting the player choose where to bring the objects into the cave by holding them. The Blue Pikmin are essential. When the player exits the cave, it leaves them off at the Oasis Island, meaning that the player can get the Swim Suit and cross the water on their own. If the player were to ram into the Palm Tree on the island a few times with Perrita, a durian would fall down and break into 3 pieces, allowing for it to be gathered.

With 20 Blue Pikmin, a cardboard box in the oasis can be pushed to allow crossing the small hill and onto a mountain clearing area. Crossing onto the mountain through the Crystal Caverns is impossible until a new Pikmin type is discovered, as there are several heat geysers around it. Around the area are several caves, with plenty of treasures. There's a desk with two shelves, the bottom of which can be reached with a wire from the top shelf. On the top shelf is a cave exit, as the Workplace Conundrum's entrance is found on the inside of a paper bag at the bottom of a toolbox, which is set on its side, making it so the exit is on top. In the center of the top shelf is a massive circle of dust, of which a Beady Long Legs drops down from a rock above. Beating the Beady Long Legs grants a Beady Marble and the Oversized Alerting Device. There are several cinderblocks set up, with one lying over on the bottom shelf. The one lying over has the Fungal Cluster.

Upon collecting 16,000 sparklium, Olimar and Louie will receive an email from Chacho.

“Olimar, Louie, I just found another area for you to explore! It might be a bit cold, but I'm sure you can work it out. Louie, you never come to disappoint!”

This unlocks the next area, the Treacherous Tundra. Upon heading there, a blizzard is taking place and the two captains crash into a tree, sending the ship off to one spot with Louie, and Olimar elsewhere. No other areas can be accessed until the pair is reunited again.

Gameplay

Rations return, and 1 ration is required per character except for Louie, who is excluded past the first day, and can be gained from multiple treasures, along with creatures while the Gourmet is available. Rations can also be bought with chips, which are a very common currency.

Some areas can be broken into by exiting caves, examples being the Sweltering Sands to the Shifty Peaks, but most are story unlocks only.
