Pikmin: Other Frontier

Pikmin: Other Frontier is a alternate and expanded take on Pikmin 2, the main difference is that Olimar and Louie crash land first in the south area of the planet rather than the north, this brings new treasures and enemies, some not native to the north side. And like Pikmin 2 after the debt is played Louie is replaced by the President who works with Olimar to rescue him.

Due to taking place on the other side of the planet, the climate is warmer meaning that Candypop buds can grow on the surface, with Crimson, Gold, and Lapis Lazuli buds growing on the surface exclusively and Ivory, Cyan, and Amber buds grow exclusively underground.
