Pikmin 1.5 is a real-time strategy game developed for the Wii. In this game, you are Captain Olimar, who has just finished his quest in the first game. However, a collision with an unidentified object causes Olimar to be thrown back to the planet, on the dark side of the Pikmin Planet.
Story
Captain Olimar had finished his quest from the first game and is heading back home. Suddenly, he notices a huge crash. A dark figure arose into the ship's view and crashed into Olimar's spaceship, the S.S. Dolphin. It spun out of control and landed on the dark side of the Pikmin planet.
When Olimar awakes, he recognizes the place entirely. Next to him is a similar red onion, and a Red Pikmin hops out. The Red Pikmin tells Olimar of the cause of the dark, and why Pikmin can't survive at night. The Pikmins' leaf turns brown, and it slowly dies. It tells him that in order to save the Pikmin, he needs to find the Orange Pikmin's onion. Olimar agrees to help save the Pikmin and himself, and in order to do that, he must find his way to the light side.

Mechanics
Since the levels are at night, the is no sun so no time limit. Also, with rescuing Pikmin, you have to repair the Dolphin. You also have to always have Orange Pikmin, since your torch will run out over time.
Pellets serve a different function than the first game. Pellets indicate how many Pikmin are trapped in there, and what color they are. You do not have to get every single pellet in the game, but if you do, there will be an Easter Egg at the end (there are 1,500 pellets in the game if you were wondering. You are able to get up to 10,000 Pikmin.). You have to get every ship part, though.
Enemies are not in the game, so you don't have to worry about them dying. Hazards are though, but if a Pikmin dies because of a hazard, its deceased body can be harvested into another Pikmin. Pikmin can also die from the lack of light. They will turn into dust, and the next day will turn into a new Pikmin. Basically, these Pikmin still count as a death, but you will still have another Pikmin where that left off.

- Bulb Orb Generator: Found in The Crash Site - Olimar's Description: Good golly! Now the Pikmin can have light. A very strange name, I might add. It remindes me of something I know of.
- Cross Transceiver: Found in The Moss Jungle - Olimar's Description: My radio has been found, joy! Now I can call my family. It might be a good idea to call Pikminmon Corporation, just so they know I'm safe.
- Cold Storage: Found in The Moss Jungle - Olimar's Description: Now the feast is on! My poor tummy is rumbling with excitement! I have a whole tub of ice cream waiting to be devoured.
