This is just one of many ideas on how things from Pikmin came to be.

I don't own Pikmin blah blah blah.

Reviews are gladly accepted. Constructive criticism too.

Pikavores. (things that eat pikmin)

In an advanced age of genetic engineering for the humans, many, (MANY!) experiments were held concerning insects. They took genes from the insects, and as I said, did many experiments on them.

There was a mishap, a huge explosion of radiation, messing up the machinery.

The machines miscalculated, creating the family of bulbears and breadbugs. Later, a branch of all the smaller insects, such as the sheargrubs and whatnot came into notice. Frog genes were combined with these, creating a froglike insect family. These insects grew to great sizes, forcing the building of the Great Spiders. Raging longlegs, an out of control, powerful; slow but when enraged, quick spider came from the engineering. Another spider, beady longlegs, was formed with smaller feet, but quicker, agile, and body way high, was under control until it escaped. Man-at-legs was formed, half mechanical spider, but it was way too friendly, and so they fused an auto laser gun to the body of the spider. The laser was programmed aggressive, a great mistake. The lasers broke many machines, killing many workers.

They then tried to make a different, smaller spider, with elemental powers.

The dweevils. They were cowardly, but when threatened, released a great amount of powerful elemental energy. Most dweevils took great interest in objects. Some had only interest in explosive objects, creating it's own type of dweevil. They released them to try and fix the mishaps. Research started on a mega-dweevil.

This mega dweevil had the elements of fire, electricity, water, and poison all together, but it quickly became out of control, and wrecked havoc. The humans created blockades of gates, and electric gates.

The humans quickly retreated to an unknown area, rarely coming out.

This time let the insects shrink to their sizes today. Nobody knows the whereabouts of the human fortification.
