Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds

Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds is an upcoming fanon game made by PikminFanatic23. It is planned to be released on the Wii, and is scheduled to be released in July-August 2011. It is rated T by the ESRB for Mild Blood, Fantasy Violence, and Scary Images. It revolves around the plot that the public learns of the Planet of the Pikmin, however two evil people aim to seize control of it. There are also 400 Treasures.

Plot
Several years after the events of Pikmin 2, the President of Hocotate Freight told the public of Hocotate a surprise announcement: that an entirely new planet had been discovered and it was worth living on. Hocotate scientists were already working on a new type of ship to transport people to and from the planet. Unfortunately, for the President, he got kidnapped by two people (whose names are Akou and Sasou) and demanded that they knew how he got so rich. The President had no other choice but to explain. He said that using the Pikmin's powers, he was able to lift treasures and salvage them. They released him, but decided to get the treasures for themselves. They will stop at nothing to get the treasures. The President knew he should tell Olimar and Louie. They discussed the situation until they saw the S.S. Dolphin roar down to them. Then Olimar's son, Sagittarius, popped out along with a government agent. Olimar knew his son was practicing flying school, but didn't expect him to be flying his Dolphin... He even wondered how they bought it from the government. Sagittarius told him that they used his secret stash to buy it from the government. Olimar then noticed it had two cockpits, and it's actual name was the S.S. Dolphin 2.0. The government agent then explained that the stash wasn't enough, but they could pay 50 Pokos a night to repay the remaining debt via the treasures. The agent left, then the following morning, the four set out for the Pikmin Planet. And so their journey begins...

Hazards
All the hazards appear from Pikmin 2, again, with new ones.

Original Hazards

 * Fire
 * Water
 * Electricity
 * Poison
 * Earth (or better known as boulders)
 * Explosions
 * Air (exhaled from Puffy Blowhogs/related species)
 * Enemies
 * Sunset
 * Abyss

New Hazards

 * Acid
 * Lava
 * Ice
 * Quicksand

Mixed Hazards
Sometimes hazards may mix, such as electrical water. Dual Buds are required to destroy/avoid these annoying obstacles. Combinations include:


 * Electrical water (as noted above, electricity + water)
 * Bomb-boulders (boulders + explosions)
 * Toxic water (poison + water)
 * Boiling water (fire + water)
 * Fire orb (fire + boulder)
 * Toxic orb (poison + boulder)
 * Cold water (ice + water)
 * Dirty water (earth + water)

The Dual Buds will remain even after you pluck the combined Pikmin so as you can revert the combined Pikmin into their original two Pikmin. Also, the "orbs" noted is actually super-dense, harmful material to your Pikmin. They act like hazardous boulders, but the dense material spreads out upon impact. The "orbs", due to their density, will crush any Pikmin standing beneath it (save Brown and Ultima Pikmin, but the Brown Pikmin may die).
