How to change your appearance in Pikmin 4

There’s Pikmin to collect and Castaways to rescue in Pikmin 4. You can create your own character to go on the adventure, but what if you don’t like your creation anymore? Fortunately, it is possible to change your character’s appearance, though the option isn’t available from the get-go.

This guide will explain how to change your appearance in Pikmin 4.

How to update your appearance in Pikmin 4

To change your look, you’ll need to rescue Puddle. He is the ninth Castaway you save, so you should have him on your team by the time you’re in Blossoming Arcadia or Serene Shores. Once he’s been rescued, you can visit him at the base before you go exploring. He’s the guy with the purple hair.

For no cost, you can change your skin tone, body type, face, hair, hair color, suit color, and name. After rescuing ten Leaflings, you’ll unlock the Leafling look for yourself. The changes are purely cosmetic, and they do not affect gameplay at all.

You should chat with everyone you rescue, as some of them perform useful tasks. Speak to Dalmo to view the Piklopedia and learn more about the organisms of PNF-404, or pay Schnauz a visit to see the Treasure Catalog.
