Find Smokey Progg worth 100 pikmin:
Go to the Distant Spring after day 15.Go to the southern lake area until you find a cluster of islands that looks like a flower.Attack the egg in the center until it opens and the Smokey Progg will come out.Try to destroy it and take it to an onion and it will be worth 100 pikmin!

Take Down the Evil Fat Mushroom (turns your Pikmin against you):
First, you need 50 red Pikmin for this, when you get to the circular area that he is in, dismiss 30 Pikmin, but keep them away from the mushroom, but not too far. Get the other 20 to attack it's legs (if it looks like it's sucking in air, get your Pikmin away from it!)hopefully, it will tip over.When it does, throw the Pikmin on it, as fast as you can! When it gets upright get your Pikmin away, if they don't, the mushroom will spread a spore and turn them against you, get your other 30 Pikmin to battle the evi ones, repeat until it is dead. Also the top is the missing part, the other half is a lot of pellets.

Space Float:
To get the space float you must first go to the Naval Base and find the blue ognion. After you get a few blue pikmin, find a flower with a pellet in it and get one of your blue pikmin to slash it down. Don't do anything until a beetle-like creature comes and trys to eat it, when he does send 2 pikmin at the pellet they will fight for it and drag the beetle back to the ognion where the ray will pull the pellet and the beetle up and the beetle will get hurt. You will have to do this 2 times and when the beetle dies you will get The Space Float. (Your Pikmin won't attack this creature so that is the only way to kill it)

Get purple pikmin:
First get 100 red, 75 blue, and 50 yellow pikmin. Once you do that, go to the Impact Site and take out 25 red, 25 blue, and 50 yellow pikmin. Go stand by the rocket. Stay there for 5 seconds. Then go to cardboard box. Make sure all your pikmin you took out are still with you. Go into there and grab some bombs. Throw all the yellow pikmin with bomb rocks into the water and then put the rest of the pikmin back. Call it a night. The next morning, you will find the number of yellow pikmin you threw into the water have become purple. Purple has the power of all 3 pikmin and are invincible!! Have fun!!

Secret Mode:
It's easy just meet everykind of Pikmin (blue, yellow, and red)and collect every rocket part and escape the planet before the 30 days are up and Challenge Mode will appear on the main menu. The point of Challenge mode is to breed as many Pikmin as you can in one day. It's not as simple as it sounds because these things happen:
1.you can access every area,
2.enemys pop up in new places to eat you,
3.day is longer,
4.you can work a little bit at night (a second or so)
5.Pikman take longer to find and be reproduced by by pellets (as in it's hard to find them in the ground)
6.areas are not the same in Challenge mode (including pellets and Pikmin in the ground)
Enjoy the mode!!!

More Pikmin:
To get more Pikmin from a pellet than the number on the pellet you must send double the amount of pikmin required to carry the pellet.

Battle Tactic:
In the forest of hope, there are these huge predators that are red with white polka dots. They sleep during the day. If you attack them from the front, you can lose as many as seventy pikmin! However, if you sneak up behind them while they're sleeping, put Olimar directly behind the rear of the predator, and push the c stick in the direction of the enemy, you can kill it almost instantly with a minimum of 40 pikmin and not lose any!

Lots of pikmin fast!:
To make this faster and easier, get the yellow pikmin first. Then go to the "Impact Site" level and go into the part past the box with the number 10 on it. Have the yellow pikmin pick up the bomb rocks on the other side of the box, and use three of them to knock down the white wall. Once you go inside, stay close to the sides as not to drown your pikmin. To the right, around the corner is a clam type thing with a pearl in it's mouth. Stand next to it and put your site in it's mouth just next to the pearl. Grab a pikmin with a bomb rock and toss it it. It should land in, run out and throw it's bomb rock. Do this twice to kill it. Have them take it back to the onion and you get about 50 pikmin seeds!!!

Captain Olimar Trophy (Requires Super Smash Bros Melee Game):
This is a really cool-looking and easy to get trophy! All you have to do is play 1 day of Pikmin (not a 24-hour day, just a regular Pikmin-game day) and then play Super Smash Brothers. After the Melee Main Menu, it should say "You've gotten the Captain Olimar trophy".
