Some skrunkly Oatchis from the official Pikmin comic.

Bonus mamuta bugging out their eyes 'cus i think it's funny but I don't feel like posting it by itself.

#pikmin #pikmin 4 #oatchi #I was recently going to post that i think it's cool that characters are introduced #roughly in the order that you find them in #but the latest comic introduced dash before yonny has made an appearance (they made his hair purple so i guess that's his 'canon' hair colo #from the rescue corps team: we're still missing yonny and possibly bernard (it's likely he's one of the purple leaflings)#for castaways we've gotten: schnauz. dalmo (who is a confirmed freak in the comic). kingsly. and dash.#the mamuta is interestingly a recurring character despite not having special relevance in the game #so far it's the only enemy besides the bulborb to appear more than twice

I love the idea of leafling scars!! Such a cool idea but I’ve never seen anyone draw anything life that! Maybe I’m biased because I like Bernard.

Had this idea brewing since the game came out and there are SO many ways it could be applied to imply extra stories for Bernard and the castaways! I have no idea when else I'll be able to talk about this in length so thank you for sending this I can finally ramble!!!

To summarize:

Cured castaways are left with vine stitches that protect and keep together any internal or external injuries (may or may not disappear once the injury is fully healed)

The pikmin parasite potencially focuses on the head to control the host

The longer they're a leafling the more vibrant the hue left on the skin is. (I wasn't sure how much of a tomato Olimar would be)

Flowers can bloom in their leafy coats

Despite being brought into the same Onion they have different types of leaves/vines/flowers

I left it ambiguous whether or not castaways are still being healed after they've been turned into leaflings

Other info and ideas I didn't include:

A lot of times the plant grown will be poisonous ie. a yellow leafling grows buttercups. This is to protect them from predators.

Marks resembiling their leafling eyes might be visible on their corneas

Drinking nectar gives them a similar effect to the pikmin; blooming flower, faster speed (maybe strength? forgot if that's boosted), they also get "extra lives" but their pain receptors are more sensitive than the pikmin so they get temporarilly incapacitated for longer

Keeping it ambiguous if castaways are straight up revived from the dead or need to be brought in while they're still hanging on (there's so much story potential if theres a time limit tho!)

They might be able to use the vines as a second limb (I accidentally drew Olimar's vine too low so he probably has a vine tail now)

Dunno if I did Yonny's speech pattern justice here (still experimenting) but-

I REALLY wished we could've gotten notes from Yonny about this since he got to see them up close. And dang it I'm really curious about how the leaflings work, I get that they're all dandori n stuff but what if the pink ones can fly or the purple ones are stronger. Maybe all of them except blue leaflings get hurt by water.

So many questions and no answers, and so much design and story potential!!!

I cut the image in case tumblr's compression kicks me.

This was a pretty fun way to start drawing the castaways too. Now I'm really tempted to draw everyone's leafling forms (I may have already picked flowers for the rescue corps team based on their symbolism)

Autumn on PNF-404 brings the cold with it and the Pikmin spend more time inside their leader's strange onions... Louie shares meals with them on the occasion!

#weky draws #pikmin #louie pikmin #pikmin fanart #pikmin 4 #ish!#this is within an au where the rescue corps and castaways can't get out of the planets atmosphere immediately so they are forced to stay #however #most of them discover they like life down there even though the issue is eventually resolved and they can leave #olimar goes back to his family for example and only comes down to visit on occasion but #theres a little town now!#it's mostly kevlar under the decorations #and one has to suit up to go out #but it's actually a pretty lively lil place and they've started out shops #louie doesn't stay in the town itself but rather in his own lil dwelling consisting of a makeshift pressurized tent #and a bunch of animal enclosures #he's a bit of a recluse and hunts for himself #very rarely visiting the bulk of the population!

surprised that i havent seen any posts about how the rescue base camp is Autism Central

so many of the castaways have fun little quirks and they are Very Normal about their interests, hence why they dropped everything to go to a mystery planet in the hopes of discovering things about their Specific Field Of Study

Outside of just listing every castaway's special interest, specific highlights are:

Bernard - Has a distinct speaking style that implies poor volume control. Seems to not pick up on social cues (entirely unaware that Santi doesn't like him), might be poor at communicating tone himself. Invented a meal-in-a-cup one time, and is also a picky eater, so he probably has sensory issues.

Pitunia - I'm certain that at one point, she only gave me one (1) line (she started telling me more about her Onion Theories later on), telling me to go away so she could study the onion.

Komo - Makes comments about being bad at conversation and making eye contact - her dialogue is written with a pretty flat/monotone tone of voice. Talks a lot about her study of water. Not Even Subtle.

Twyla - Talks about being overwhelmed by the environment. Seems to prefer theory to practical work, mostly because she hates to get dirty.

Kit - Loves to talk about geology!! Uses cute themed terms like "oh pebbles". Needs to be super thorough and exhaustive with his papers, so he submits them a bit slowly... he also frequently apologises for when he starts to infodump :(

François - He wants to be friends with plants.......... the trait of, like, relating to/preferring the company of non-human things......

Sheeba - Is very dedicated when she decides to do something, and seems to be pretty insistent on doing things the way she thinks is correct, sometimes to the point of (self-perceived) pushiness.

Keesh - Infodumps about geology to Kaia. Likes planning and scheduling, and struggles when her plans are disrupted. Enjoys Kaia's company while "quietly working"/not really interacting (parallel play type behaviour).

Chowder - So absorbed in his real-estate work, he rushes into dangerous locales, and works through the entire night, but misses social cues (expected his other workers to have the same work ethic until he was informed otherwise).

Molly - Uses personal language that doesn't have an obvious meaning (describes things as POPping a lot), makes "weird" content but doesn't get why it's perceived that way. Seems to follow trends without entirely understanding them.

Beaux - Super dedicated to acting. Needs real life experience to fully get into a role - maybe either a perfectionism thing (he needs to get every detail right), or that he struggles to imagine things.

Grace - Speaks in her own whimsical way. Mentions not doing well with noisy environments. Much prefers to be in her own environment in space.

Horatio - I dunno it's just vibes.

Bonus ADHD haver Kaia - spaces out frequently, forgets tasks and struggles to work on things long-term, has poor impulse control, struggles with planning ahead and with studying more complex subjects.

i wonder what else other players might have picked up on :)

#pikmin #pikmin 4 spoilers #there is also louie but 1. he is king autism and 2. just talking about the new and side characters #i was really delighted by all the castaways so i wanted to talk about them in-depth :)#i spent a while talking to everyone while writing this to make sure i didnt miss characters #but im sure other folks will pick up on things i didnt!

Am I the only one who realizes this image is absolutely nonsense?

#the characters in the back are literally castaways with no confirmed relation whatsoever to the Shepherd family?#erma shepherd #pikmin shepherd #pikmin #pikmin 4 #i grovel

I watched this movie a few days ago so this scene was in my head, as well as the pun I could make. I’d see people redraw this ALL THE TIME in the early 2010’s. Plus I just like getting to draw the castaways.

Also, don’t mind the guy next to Collin in the second panel. He’s an OC.

the piklopedia is making me want pikmin spinoff games where it's just like. focused on the natural lives of the pikmin enemies. i want those creature in a zoo/pet sim. I want to breed and raise Fancy Bulborbs and take them to Fancy Bulborb shows and decorate their enclosure with cute and enriching objects as i raise up a simulated colony of them and watch them play out googly eyed meerkat manor. I want to raise a breadbug like its a nintendog. i want pokemon snap but i get to see a snagret preening. i want a nature documentary about PNF 404 as narrated by david attenborough. Is that so much to ask

#i wonder how many spec bio people spent too much time in the ye olde piklopedia as kids #its making me feel things #also given the unhinged amount of castaways in 4 i am almost certain someone with the bad idea of Fancy Bulborb will end up on PNF404 #or someone who wants to start a zoo #pikmin #pikmin 4 #this game is good but ughhhhh completing the dandori battles is much less fun than the dandori challenges #stop splitting the screen so i have an iphones width of FOV challenge #let me see where all the SHIT is!#my posts

Irreplaceable

It's all "pikmin yaoi" this and "pikmin yuri" that, but then y'all will go and ignore the canon pikmin yaoi/yuri that's right in front of you.
