Pikmin: Near Extinction

This is a fan-made Pikmin game that takes place soon after Pikmin 2, made by Augster999.

Plot
Soon after the events of Pikmin 2, Captain Olimar decides that he should bring his son to the Pikmin Planet to show him what it was like, and thus returns to the Pikmin Planet. Upon landing, he lands near the Red Onion to take all of the Pikmin that he had the Onion make on his last visit. However, there weren't any Pikmin in the Onion! He sees a group of Red Pikmin in the distance attacking an unusually large beast. It eats them all. Olimar and his son sees a seed fly out of the Onion, signaling a last stand against extinction. After repopulating the Red Pikmin a bit, Olimar sees that something ate half of his ship while he was away. After he starts exploring and regaining parts swallowed by new HUGE beasts he discovered, he finds new adapted Pikmin to defeat the new huge monsters and destroy obstacles. After going into a cave that happens to pass through a mountain, he finds the extremely radioactive King Bulblax and defeats it, recovering the final part of his ship, then he blasts off the planet, waving goodbye to the Pikmin.

Pikmin
You have the usual normal colors: Red, Yellow, Blue, Purple, and White Pikmin. However, there are three new colors:


 * Lime Pikmin: They are immune to acid and radiation. AcidPik.png
 * Black Pikmin: They are good fighters, and needed to move some objects only moveable by Black Pikmin. MusclePik.png
 * Orange Pikmin: These Pikmin are for throwing at far distances.

There are secret groups of red-orange versions of Orange Pikmin that are hidden throughout the game. All that they do is glide faster and attack faster. They only spawn in hard to reach places every 10 days, usually around mini bosses. They are worth it due to their high attack speed.

Parts
Please note that you can get the parts back in caves because you have the ship from the second games research pod with you. The parts include:
 * Main engine:        Found in the landing site, dropped by the Mini Long Legs.
 * Geiger counter:     Found in the landing site, found inside a clam. You need it to detect radiation. It will appear in the corner of the screen:
 * Eternal Fuel Dynamo: Found in the landing site, in the Danger Ditch.

Landing site
Summary:This place is similar to the original Landing Site from the first Pikmin. The differences are it is very hot, causing the water to evaporate.The engine is guarded by male sheargrubs. Some of the clams contain pearls now. One contains the Geiger counter, and it is the same clam that had the Positron Generator. Please note that you need black Pikmin to obtain it, making you return much later. The wall that was destroyed by bomb rocks can only be destroyed by black Pikmin now.

Mini-Bosses
Mini Long Legs The tree stump where the Goolix was now has a mini version of the Beady long legs. The Mini long legs is really easy because it can't rage and Red Pikmin can reach its head while it is high. It also has low HP. Besides that, it looks the same.

AcidiGoolix This is located on the log after the Mini long legs is defeated. It is an upgraded form of the Goolix. You must meet these conditions to have him appear: He is really dangerous, because he can kill blue pikmin by melting them after a few seconds. You can kill him with just Blue Pikmin, but the smart way to do it is Lime Pikmin
 * The mini long legs must be defeated.
 * You must have blue Pikmin.
 * You need over 300 Pikmin total.

Caverns
Danger Ditch To go in you need at least 100 Pikmin out. This is the first hole in the "hole" game! It is in the exact place the dream den was.

Anyway, sublevel 1 is just a short little level. All that it has is a Red Bulborb and a Green apple.

Sublevel 2 has a more complex design, and has 2 roads that split up. one leads to the Eternal Fuel Dynamo and another hole. The other leads to an area blocked by a metal wall...

Sublevel 3 has an yellow Onion in it! You can see that there is a huge hole in the ceiling, and that a yellow Pikmin is getting chased by a fiery blowhog! After you defeat the blowhog, you can go to the surface (The onion will follow you) and you can break down the electric gate that has pellet posies behind it! Also, you can get the Whimsical Radar that was on a high platform.
