That makes a lot of sense we would totally make genetically modified versions of our species specifically for this

You should not overlook a specific detail shown in the Prologue: Olimar has crashed there and his ship is destroyed...but the way he talks about the Pikmin seems to be closer to how when he FIRST DISCOVERED THEM. It might just be me, but this feels like a retcon, an alternate timeline for everything we've known. This would explain how things seem to have been "reset" to a time shortly after the humans disappearance/perishing. Almost like they vanished in a flash. To be honest, I am not sure if they even remember all the "original" story beats they hinted at in the first few Pikmin games and wanted a clean start. Either way, I am hyped for the game and the Umibozu theory still holds a very special place in my fanon heart.

Just so you know pikmin 4 goes for after the bad ending of pikmin 1 that’s why we see the water wraith that should appear in pikmin 2 not 4

⚠️ SPOILER Pikmin 4 likely takes place in between 2 and 3. There is a lot of evidence to suggests this but I’ll keep it brief: Pikmin 4 happens right after Olimar crashes in “Pikmin 1” except in this universe, Pikmin 1 is replaced with Olimar’s mission making Pikmin 1 not canon and the mission the canon. In the missions, Olimar ends up staying behind for Moss and gets turned into a leafling which is the “bad ending” route from Pikmin 1 reworked. In Olimar’s notes, he mentions how he had a dream that his company went into debt, but says that it never happened before. This suggests the event of pikmin 2 didn’t happen.. yet. Finally, you encounter Koppaits later on that mention how their planet will soon go into a food crisis bc of the growing rate of people. This implies that the events of pikmin 3, AKA the main Koppaits (alph, brittany, and charlie) searching for food didn’t happen yet bc the planet wasn’t YET in crisis. The reason the house isn’t overgrown is because Pikmin 4 happens millions of years earlier. And the reason the continents become “Pangea” is because the captains have to travel light years to get to PNF 404 which messes with time. So, the final timeline is: Pikmin 1 “Bad Ending” reworked (Olimar’s Mission in Pik4) Pikmin 4 Pikmin 2 Pikmin 3

First of all, if all the treasures are just pieces of the "umibozu" than why would the captains still be able to turn it into juice? Though the glitter wraith could change its chemical composition(as used in its attacks during its fight) doesn't mean it could maintain the shapes forever, plus each extension of itself needed that weird cube to control it(which could have also been in the enemies but smaller), otherwise it would collapse back into a golden droplet. Not to mention if it could control its chemical composition and reaction, than it would likely not be able to be juiced in the first place. Also what says those fruits arn't naturally grown and dropped off its original plant(even if the growth seasons are totally off)? Second, how would a radioactive somehow sentient goo learn everything about the human race? The house is awefully well maintained for a timeline without people, and there is likely something going on with it relative to the plot, but i doupt the wraith could take the shape of, and maintain the shape of AN ENTIRE HOUSE Third, just because the wraith discuised itself as a bunch of enemies doesn't mean that EVERYTHING can be the wraith. Pikmin 4 introduces the raw material mechanic, which i highly doupt would be a extension of the wraith if the captains can turn it into whatever they want, including clay. And lastly, i'd rather this theory be wrong because if everything pikmin was just "ha ha just kidding its all made of goo" i think it would make pikmin a lot less interesting.

I dont think the video means that everything is made of wraith goo, i think its that the umibozu/last human set up the planet to be like how it remembers humanity using the materials available (hence the lack of goo-ness and the perfect condition of the house) and it put fruit and treasure everywhere to attract people

I agree that humans were wiped out but in the Pikmin 3 if you wait a little while you can hear a sheep so maybe not all animals were wiped out.

I theory i heard in a KZread video time ago is that time on PNF-404 is zipping to different time frames or something, they were experimenting with the 4th dimensional things, which would explain the plasm wraith. Maybe its a 4th dimensional creature. maybe that's the reason why humans are extinct.

I don’t think the plasm wraith is the same as the waterwraith anymore

I don't plan on stopping!

If you think about it, Pikmin 4 is a entirely new alternate universe We know this because, at the start of the demo it shows Olimar with his dog, Moss but Moss wasn't in Pikmin 1 soo..... After the house bit (that we saw in the demo) Olimar must have died, got put in the onion and turned into a leafling And maybe after a long time (or a short time, we don't know), something happened to Olimar that made him turn evil (possibly the umibozu). OK so that's my theory! PS: have you ever thought that Hey, Pikmin! is a prequel to Pikmin 3? Hey, Pikmin! likely led to an alternate Pikmin 2 (where purples and whites don't exist). Think about it! There aren't any rock or winged pikmin in Pikmin 1 and the Pikmin 3 gang found info files FROM Olimar ABOUT Rocks and Wings! Feel free to do what you want with this information.

unless the 3 from pikmin 3 show up in pikmin 4, im certain this game takes place in between 1 and 2. Olimar was nowhere near abandonded buildings in 1, then he crashes into a backyard, and flies into an intact building in 4, and he comes back to an abandoned earth in 2. He has to go in lightspeed to go back and forth from earth and his planet, which probably takes a couple million earth years to do. There were really no signs of humans in 1, so I believe that the pikmin 1 era was before, or really early humans, pikmin 4 would be during modern humans as we know them, and 2 would be after. The lack of caves in 1 would make sense too, cause most of the caves in 2 and 4 have many human-built features.

One thing we learn is that any creature with leafs on them like the dogs or pikmin, if they go far enough away from PNF-404 it becomes very dangerous to their health, meaning there is likely something on the planet that they can't go too far from.

It was hinted in game that Pikmin 4 takes place before Pikmin 3. So you can make an argument that Pikmin 3 takes place at the end of the timeline with the Plasm Wraith evolving over time from the Water Wraith. We get a hint with the Foolix, a mutated of alternative variation of the Goolix.

I’ve been waiting for you to talk about this

4:10 YOOOOO thats my image lol, great video btw

@Raggins

Your image was one of the reasons I made this video so thanks for the inspiration!

There's something we seriously need to pay attention to. Time moves slower underground on PNF 404. As in, the closer you get to the center of the planet, the slower time moves, meaning if you're not even ON the planet, a couple seconds out in space could become centuries on PNF. The truth will lie deep underground, some strange anamoly warping the very nature of time, perhaps even flinging the direction of time back and forth on a whim?

My theory is that the amebozu is the only creature in pikmin that actually interacts with earth, the rest, including olimar and the pikmin, are interacting with an alternate earth created by the amebozu, due to the water wraith's "true form existing in an alternate dimension". All the treasures and fruits and stuff are synthesized in convenient places so that the amebozu can study how the various captains solve puzzles. It's not malicious, otherwise you would never be able to leave at the end of the game, just curious.

Great video 😊

I’ll be honest, with the Geiger counter, I keep thinking the radiation that it was detecting was actually residual radiation from deep space. Olimar generally doesn’t know what it does so he was explaining what he thinks it’s doing when working.

the devs in the ask the developer interviews basically brushing off giving concrete answers to this or the timeline is pretty funng

Fun fact: if you got a physical copy of pikmin 1, you can find a bag of seeds in it. The seeds are from flowers that were genetically bred to be identical to the flowers on pikmin!

If I'm correct, there's a chance Pikmin 4 retcons a few things, because Olimar speaks as if he JUST landed on the planet, first learning of the Pikmin, collecting pieces of the Dolphin. It may very well be that Pikmin 4 is either another timeline (god help us) or a retcon to say "This is what actually happened with Pikmin 1!" but I'm not sure, time will tell...tomorrow??

I really liked this theory and I feel that it explains quite a bit.. Also, what's the music that begins at 5:38 ? I really like it and can't find it at all

I have a WILD theory to this, but I'll give it here. I think that the people that are here are on vacation, and it acts like a toy story scenario where things like enemies and pikmin come out to explore when humans aren't around. My idea is that the capitans arrive at this point, and thats where the game starts

I don't know if its just me, but could you do something about the sharpness off the *ding* sound effect you use

3:44: One of my favourite quotes. Yes, metric is the best.

this holds as much water as a matpat theory but fun speculation nonetheless

Maybe Pikmin, because how odd they are even to PNF-404, are native to a different planet, and exist on PNF-404 to help those who are trapped and to get rid of the Big Bad who is ruining the planet. Maybe even pikmin are made by humans to take the planet back? Probably not the best explanation

I think pikmin 4 is an alternate universe where Olimars interstellar radio is able to reach others planets. Where Olimar fails his mission and has to rely on others to get him home, and where the events of pikmin 2 cease to exist because Olimar can’t make it home, but olimars distress signals makes it so Louie is sent on a completely mission. I think it’s kind of strange, but I believe pikmin 4 falls in between 1 and 3, it’s like a different scenario for pikmin 2. What do you think?

"How come fresh fruit is still laying around" because plants would still grow fruit without humans.

*meanwhile at Nintendo HQ* "Yknow what'd be funny? Next time let's shape the continents like Louies head"

3:43 Indeed it is. Where everything is divisible by 2, 5, 10 and nothing arbitrary.

what if the human extinction was a chernobyl type thing? No atom bombs, but intstead a atomic accident that unleashed tons of raditation across the world, but not in a explosion.

Astronauts in space age a little bit slower than people on Earth due to time-dilation effects, but only by a minuscule amount due to the relativity of time, which depends on the speed and gravity of the observer

I think it's cool to think that it's drawing space men down to PNF-404 just to simply have friends. Nothing malicious, it's a god-like creature from another dimension that evolves all the time ffs, it's gotta get lonely eventually.

3:23 "Africa" just kidding good vid I like that we Pikmin fans noticed the fucking house and are now scrambling to find what it means for the world building of Pikmin, but honestly, I think that Nintendo's just satisfying their family-friendly look in their games, and a post-apocalyptic environment is kinda limiting to make cute. (even though its possible) But hey, we get a game, that's all I want.

i think the umibozu makes everyone crash and kidnapped olimar and turned olimar into a leafling because it doesnt want anyone to escape the reason for it not wanting anyone to escape could be anything

BRO AT this point I think even Pikmin knows something is UP how the heck every single ship that lands crashes. And the Leaflings maaaaan

I'm pretty sure Miyamoto said in a interview around when pikmin 3 came out he said this is earth but years after we when extinct

Most of this stuff is just nintendo logic. Though i dont think everything is an illusion, it could just be that the umibozu or whatever is controlling the tectontic movements of the plates

3:24 that’s South America.

there is one thing though some people believe that pikmin 4 is after the bad ending of pikmin 1 meaning it would be after pikmin 1 not pikmin 3 which would make more sense of why the planets continents are not merged but it could still have somthing to do with Umibōzu

Pikmin 4 and Demo spoilers regarding the Olimar Pikmin hybrid The leafing that looks like Olimar is Olimar, because when challenging him he turns the castaway into a leafling by using the onion. So Olimar did not make it back in time. I do like the theory that Pikmin 4 is the alternate series of events that happened after the Pikmin 1 bad ending.

We need the Game Theorist on this

You know what if in the prolog of pikmin 4...that isnt olimar its the umibozu mimicking olimar and retreating olimars firsr adveture in order to befriend the pikmin for himself, until he finds moss...a creature he doesn't recognize but decides to befriend it anyways...but then once he gets the cominicator ...it realized it could just use olimars distress signal (which let say umibozu was interfering with in the original to prevent olimars escape in pikmin 1) to lure more aliens to the planet and use the endless bounty of tresure ans food as the bait to keep them around

Pikmin 4 is a re-run of pikmin 1, simple, thats why time " reverted "

I remember Dazz doing a theory like this lol

i mean time takes place differently on Earth than where Olimar is. also Olimar could live for millions of years in earth's time since he's from another planet. so we can just say Pikmin 4 takes place 500 years in the future and what little humans survived has fixed the Earth. It's also possible that the parts he visited were desolate but the rest of the world wasn't. lots of simple answers in my opinion

I consider the fact that humans are alive to be extremely likely remember the protagonists are very small it takes a long time for them to get anywhere And the places where they are are normally in the wild or somewhere where people won't just hang around for no reason Most likely yes they would be inside but then when we are inside of a house They've already left for work

Spacefaring time dilation can't be the cause of anything because then unless olimar's species lives for billions of years then going out on courier voyages would only be for people who have no attachments and also be completely redundant considering the time lag between deliveries

Im pretty sure pikmin 4 takes place in a different time line since olimar got pikminified (his life support ran out) but this theory is still fun nontheless

Where then it's just that the zones are just lost places where no humans come and for the house the family may have simply gone on vacation ?
