[sticky entry] Sticky: Welcome!

Welcome to Pikmin Park! This is just a small little community for anything and everything Pikmin! We also have a little discord server if you wish to join (note that it does have slightly stricter rules though!)

The mods here are: [personal profile] your_local_grubdog

Rules
The rules here are very lax, focusing mostly on the comfort/safety of users and on keeping things organized.

  1. Stay on topic: This is a pikmin community after all, we want mostly pikmin content!
  2. Use Appropriate Tags: This community is set to have only admins make new tags, so you can choose from our list to add to posts; this helps keep things organized. Please only use relevant tags though; tag spam is considered spam period.
  3. Warn for common triggers (and put the content under a "read more"): for now we're going based off mostly on common sense rather than provide a long list of possible warnings, but if it's violent or otherwise potentially upsetting go ahead and put it under a read more and give a warning of sorts before the read more
    1. Please also warn for mentions of any bad endings to the games.
  4. Warn for spoilers (and put the content under a "read more"): spoilers are any new Pikmin media (game, short film, ect) that has come out within the past 6 months. After 6 months it is user choice if they wish to warn for spoilers or not. Promotional material and demos are not included.
    1. For example, from July 21st 2023 to January 21st 2024, all Pikmin 4 talk must be kept under a read more marked as containing Pikmin 4 spoilers UNLESS it is discussing something seen in trailers, screenshots, Treehouse Live, or any possible demos
  5. Censor locations in Pikmin Bloom screenshots: don't share where you are with Pikmin Bloom, please!

Tone indicators are not mandatory but highly recommended, under the read more is a list of the most common ones and their meanings.

When it comes to tagging the player character in pikmin 4 (as they are a custom character), please use the "pom" tag if using the default design. If using a custom design, use the "original character(s)" tag! Thank you!

Feel free to suggest rule changes, more tags to add, and more tone indicators to list within the comments!

[Fanfic] RAW BOOBA

Title: RAW BOOBA [or, it's original title, 'lowercase screaming']
Rating:
G
Warnings:
Cursing, homogays
Summary: After escaping to the underground, Bernard and Dingo have a little chat. 
OR, Dingo being Dingo and Bernard trying to flirt.





"Stars above.." Dingo grumbles. He crouches down beside Bernard, not fully sitting like the other was. You always had to be prepared to run in a situation like this.
 
"..This place is more dangerous than we thought, huh?" Bernard chuckles, letting his shoulders drop. 
 
"Yeah, no shit." Dingo laughs a little too, his guard dropping slightly at Bernard's relaxed nature.
 
Bernard gets a cheeky look on his face. "..At least the weather's nice, eh?- Ow!" 
 
"You deserved that!" Dingo laughs even more now, pulling his fist back. Just a playful punch, for a dumbass comment.
 
"Pfftt, sure. Maybe you should use those 'mighty fists' of yours on any creatures down here." Bernard is practically staring at him, with that charming little grin of his..
God, stop being gay, Dingo.
 
"I will!" He chuckles, feeling his face turn hot. "I've kept myself out of danger many times. I'm sure it'll be easy to protect you."
 
"You sound very sure of yourself." 
 
"..That's not a bad thing, is it?" Dingo side-eyes him.
 
"Oh, no, no! I like that." Bernard nods, looking a bit red himself.. Must just be the lighting. 
 
"Right. I'll keep that in mind." He crosses his arms, trying to look cool.
 
For a moment, they sit in silence. It's kind of- no, like, entirely- awkward. Bernard fiddles with his gloves, while Dingo pretends he isn't staring. 
 
Despite how dark and imposing the underground is, it's pretty peaceful. Just quiet, and the occasional squeaking of Bernard picking at his gloves.
 
"Y'know.. this planet is pretty fascinating, and I'm not even big on things like that. All the strange creatures, and giant plants and stuff? Fascinating." Bernard rambles.
 
"Oh, yeah, I mean.. It's way different from where I'm from." Dingo replies, still watching him closely.
 
The pilot nods. "You're from.. Ohri, right?"
 
"Yep. Born and raised."
 
That was so fucking cringe.
 
 
Bernard didn't seem bothered, just nodding again. "What's it like?"
 
"Ehh, it's kind of boring. Like, plenty of cities, plenty of small towns.. Everyone's nice, I guess. But there isn't really anything special about it."
 
"Really? Hard to believe, you seem pretty special." Bernard chuckles, looking up from his gloves. 
 
"That's why there's nothin' special about it- 'Cause I left." He shrugs.
 
"Ah, of course." Bernard laughs. 
 
"We have some weird plants and all that the further into the countryside you get, but not this huge stuff. We get some tourism for unique.. err, flora? Like flowers and vegetables and shit? If this place wasn't so dangerous, it'd be full of plant-freaks clamouring to study it." 
He usually doesn't get to talk this much about anything, nevermind where he's from. 
 
"Oh yeah, this place would be full of scientists! Plenty of beautiful things here." 
He looks directly at Dingo when he says that, but the implied flirtatiousness seems to fly over the others head. 
"..Uh, maybe a little off-topic, but I'm hungry."
 
"Fuck, me too." Dingo sighs. "You'd think they'd make some way for us to eat with these things on." He taps his helmet. "Sure would be helpful."
 
Bernard nods. "Not like we have food, but, yeah. Can't wait to eat. I'd give anything for a warm bowl of rice right now." 
 
Humming in agreement, Dingo finally sits down, leaning back against the wall. "That, or some biscuits."
Nothing has happened so far, and his knees ache, so.. Why shouldn't he relax a little? Talk about random shit?
 
"Even if we don't have any food, and we're running from danger, and our mission went to shit.. I'm glad you're here with me. I know ya like to go all solo, but you're.. pretty good company, Dingo." Bernard's voice is softer, a little more genuine. He turns to look at Dingo, a smile on his face. 
 
"..You're not that bad either, I guess." Dingo mumbles, not looking Bernard in the eyes [as if he could with those shades..].
 
Bernard chuffs, crossing his arms and leaning his head back.
 
"So, you wanna tell me about where you're from? Dingo looks up, offering a small smile to him.
 
"Oh, yeah, yeah, of course! How do I start-" Out of nowhere, there's a noise that echoes through the area. A fairly loud noise at that, cutting Bernard off and making Dingo immediately stand up.
 
It sounded a bit like something shattering.
 
"What the fuck..?" Bernard speaks in a hushed voice, quickly getting up as well.
 
"I don't know. Just.. stay quiet for a sec, yeah?" Dingo stands in front of him in a protective stance.
 
He nods, looking around cautiously. A few more noises, this time they sound a bit like talking. Neither can make out any of the words though. 
 
"We should move. It could be one of those leaflings." He whispers, turning over his shoulder. Gosh, he was so close.. 
 
Damnit, stop being gay! Not the time!
 
"Right. I'm relying on you to keep us safe if we run into them, got it?" Bernard smiles, still somehow able to stay lighthearted in a dangerous situation.
 
Even if he prefers his solo missions, he can't deny he likes Bernard's company.
 
He just wishes he would've said that before.

Pikmin Fandom Monthly - March 2023

Welcome to the March edition of Pikmin Fandom Monthly! For anyone new here, this is just a little monthly series where on the first day of each month, I share neat fan projects from the pikmin fandom made in the previous month! Today's is a day late and shorter than ideal unfortunately; I had some technical hiccups this past month that resulted in most of my saved posts being lost :( so I spent yesterday trying to find some more to make up for my lost notes. This time, I was able to get some feedback as well so I got some suggestions here not from me!

On that note, please feel free to leave suggestions in the comments about what April 2023 works should be included in the next edition! Any creative pikmin fan work is welcome, so long as it was made during this April.

Just like last month, this was cross posted to my Tumblr!

Now, lets get onto the art!

Fanart and One-Panel Comics

First up is a very cute drawing of a hairy bulborb staring up at the stars by Louivi on Tumblr! It's such a soft and pretty peice with an almost dreamy feel to it, I love it!

Piper on Tumblr drew this ADORABLE art of the pikmin with Oatchi and oh my god I love this so much, Oatchi's eyes are so big and cute and I adore this so much!!!

Pikmin OCs need more love! So here's a really cute doodle of two different yellow pikmin OCs by Spr1ngPeach! I don't know much about either character, but the drawing is very cute. I like it a lot!

Pikmin are chaotic little beasts. Feral toddlers, if you will. So clearly, we should arm them all with knives (/sar). In all seriousness though, ikol-art on tumblr drew this adorable little red pikmin with a very large knife. I love it so much, it's great.

Pizza pikmin? Pizza pikmin! By extremelylost360 on tumblr. What more need I say? It's pizza pikmin!

This one is a bit different! Most art here is 2D, but this is an entire 3D render of the Forest of Hope by kinpraw on Twitter! I love the style, it looks like something out of a stop motion movie.

Cece on twitter drew us some more Oatchi cuteness, showing him with an adorable little ice pikmin on his back! The icemin's face is precious - you can say it's melting my heart! ... yeah okay I'll see myself out for that one -

But not before sharing this cute project! Heronin on Twitter is adding to a huge doodle page every day until pikmin 4 comes out! Here's the update for March 31st! I'll see about featuring it every month as an update, but I'll certainly share the final product come July! 

Hey!Pikmin also deserves some love, no? Well I say it does! And this fireflap bulborb was drawn by Taylor C on Twitter! I just really like the soft lines and warm colors.

Other Works

Firstly, we have this mixed media sculpture (mostly clay) of some pikmin growing in a pot by Tete's DIY! The link is to a video, so you can see how they made it as well!

Last but certainly not least is Bikmin 269, a rom-hack of the second game (link is to the trailer). Honestly, I don't know much about it! It was recommended to me by a trusted friend, and I've yet to had the time to play it for myself. Most I can say is to check it out - and know that the creators say that it is best enjoyed as blind as possible!

And with that, these are the April works that I wanted to feature (and that I was able to find again after the tech stuff -w- ). I'll hopefully see you at the start of May with April's works, assuming that my finals don't eat me alive! Seriously, though, while I'll try to get it out May 1st don't be surprised if it's delayed by a whole week on account of finals season! ^^;

Angry Oliman

This was originally going to be a joke drawing, but then I put effort into it lol. Anyways, click the read more to see it as the art has some blue-colored blood in it!

Welcome Home...?

Olimar and his family (Louie included) sit at the kitchen table. Nova has just put the cleaning bot on the table, a huge smirk on his face. Olimar looks done, Rose is a little worried, Luna is very worried, and Louie is suprised

So I have a fanfic over on Ao3 I've been updating. Normally I don't post about it BUT I really liked the art I did for the latest chapter so! Enjoy! :D

Pikmin Fandom Monthly - Febuary 2023

Welcome to the first edition of Pikmin Fandom Monthly! This is just a little monthly series I'd like to do where on the first day of each month, I share neat fan projects from the pikmin fandom made in the previous month! For this I will be focusing on creative projects (so no analysis or theories, at least for now). For this first edition, all entries will be ones that I have found and enjoyed but in the future I hope to have some that were recommended to me as well! (Most of these entries are from Tumblr as a result, oops.) No images or snippets will be posted to these: all entries will be links to where the artists have posted the original work!

Please feel free to leave suggestions in the comments about how to handle this series in the future and of what March 2023 works should be included in the next edition! Any creative pikmin fan work is welcome, so long as it was made during this March.

I'll also be cross-posting this to Tumblr!

With all that out of the way, here are our categories!

Multi-Page Fan Comics and Visual Ask Blogs

We only have one of these for this month, that being Pikmin x Weirdcore - a visual ask blog over on Tumblr! It's fairly surreal, but it's been a lot of fun thus far! Olimar, Louie, and the Koppaites have all crashed on PNF-404 (again) and have been separated (again). This time, however, it seems a beast that is other-worldly even to PNF-404 is after them now. Quick warning, the artist has stated that there will be violence, glitchy imagery, and body horror in this one!

Fan Art and One Page Comics

Aka the largest collection I've gathered this month!

Firstly is Professor Pikton by Buttery Cuties! A purple pikmin dressed up like Professor Layton to celebrate the upcoming games in both franchises, how cute!

Corromon drew this Olimin, which simply looks great! Poor Olimar certainly needs a hug, though.

Higgy also drew Olimar - two Olimars, in fact! The sketchy style and expressions are very pleasing to look at, and I adore his little boots.

Next up, Alph (rightfully) worries over Louie's eating habits in this short comic by Cirtus. The style closely resembles how the characters look in-game, which is a very nice cherry on top of how sweet and charming this two-panel comic is.

SparrowOvO drew this amazing art of a baby snagret sitting with a very spooked ice pikmin. I don't even know where to start with this one - the colors, lighting, texturing, and expressions are all just so good. This may easily be my favorite out of this month's fan art!

Zombunny drew three of our four new leaders with Oatchi! They're all so adorable, and this looks great (as for where our unnamed bald friend is, he is reportedly in jail for tax evasion, among other crimes. (For legal reasons, this is a joke.))

This next entry is apparently older art, but it wasn't posted until this February, so here's this really cool idea for a phosbat variant: the Beguiling Phosbat by vehemoth-phosbitch! This beautiful little beast can withstand sunlight and is based more so on the luna moth (and maybe the flying fox as well, but I may be wrong).

Louivi drew this gorgeous piece simply captioned as Smokey Progg. The colors, the textures, it's all so good an so very haunting. Perfect for the little horror that is the smokey progg in game!

And last but certainly not least is the only piece of fan art that didn't come from Tumblr: this beautiful art of all four of our new leaders hanging out, made by Porinu! They all look adorable, each with their own pose! I particularly like how our unnamed pink friend looks - she seems so curious and even innocent to a degree.

Fanfiction and Written Ask Blogs

Once again, I only have one piece for a category. This time, it is Safe in A Father's Embrace written by PiperRose90. This story may be very short, but it is also very sweet! Olimar must make sure that Louie and Alph will be okay for the night - they are practically his sons now, after all!

Other Works

Firstly is this amazing little sculpture of a pyroclasmic slooch by Tete's DIY! This video shows their process for making the little sculpture from start to finish - including how they made the "fire" really glow!

Creative Sushi did this wonderful little cosplay of the Hocotate Freight Ship! It looks fantastic, and all of the little details really show how much love and effort went into the creation of this cosplay.

Kevin Fagaragan animated this adorable concept for a pikmin 4 ending - don't worry, there's no spoilers! Just overwhelming cuteness as the pikmin hang out and dance with Oatchi.

And to wrap all of this up is yet another animation! In Wooden Turtle's Do Not Pet the Baby Snagrets, not even Olimar can resist how adorable these new additions to the pikmin planet are! But, ah, it seems that leads him into a bit of trouble...

Thanks for sticking around until the end! I hope I get to do more of this in the future, I really want to be able to show off what the fanbase can do! Please, give any and all of the artists featured here a follow - and feel free to suggest works to be featured next month! I'll see you on April 1st with the best of what March had to offer (with minimal fooling around... probably).
