We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.
This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Brittany — The entry states that Alph discovers the Yellow Pikmin in the Garden of Hope, but they are actually first discovered in the Distant Tundra.
Olimar — In Pikmin 3, Olimar does not rescue his son; he is stranded on PNF-404 and is rescued by Alph, Brittany, and Charlie.

Pikmin Species — In Pikmin 4, Onions do automatically follow the player to new areas (they are summoned via the ship), so the statement 'do not automatically travel alongside Captain Olimar' is not universally true for all later games.
White Pikmin — The STATS section claims White Pikmin have 'normal attack strength' and are 'faster diggers than most types, but slower than Rock Pikmin' without specifying the game; this is factually incorrect for Pikmin 2, where they have double attack strength and Rock Pik
Hornet — Man-at-Legs does not respawn from its hole in Pikmin 2; it is a one-time boss.
Hornet — Pileated Snagret does not respawn from its hole in Pikmin 2; it is a one-time boss.
Louie — Louie is a playable character in Pikmin 2, not a non-playable antagonist; he is controlled by the second player in co-op mode and is the protagonist of the game's story alongside Olimar.
Louie — The entry incorrectly states Louie is a non-playable antagonist in Pikmin 3; he is a non-playable character who serves as an antagonist, but the phrasing 'non-playable antagonist' is accurate, though the entry's earlier statement that he is 'not a rookie capta
