If you ignore all its flaws, it's a pretty good theory.

Let me know what you all think, and thanks for watching.

I wonder if Louie becoming a 'final opponent' is part of an in-joke of sorts at Nintendo. He and Olimar are references to Luigi and Mario, as many people already know. In Super Paper Mario, Luigi ends up being the prophesied bringer of destruction, and the final boss of that game. Nintendo seems to like taking the bumbling side buddy and making him into an unexpected threat, because it's funny.

My three main issues are that Louie has a Nana which hints at there being nothing special about him, the fact that goolix is an actual family separate from the Wraiths, and the fact that the wraiths seem to be hinted at being an mysterious form of species that we don’t yet understand with the Plasm Wraith having maternal instincts with Olimar, almost like it lost it’s child too soon, and with their being multiple Water Wraiths hint that we just don’t understand their dimensional existence enough to confirm what they are, rather than them being godlike monsters manipulating others

[charliem.]

Louie's the strongest being in the entirety of fiction and you cannot convince me otherwise

[GriffinShrimp]

Alph’s final log might of just been retconned, as there’s a 7 year gap in between 3 and 3 deluxe. Likely just to wrap up loose ends if deluxe under sold and or to make a timeline reset easier

Otherwise, cool theory!

[myfloofydog]

Louie wanted to make the leaflings collect the enemies and that’s why he didn’t want to leave

[JAYZ-]

Louie to me is such a complex character. That’s why he’s one of my favourite characters.
Like some would justify his actions while others would literally be knife-at-throats to him. When I first heard and played Pikmin, I was literally those people, but once I delved further into the game lore and heard fans’ other opinions, im really just in the middle, I don’t think he’s really unethically evil, but I don’t think he’s ethically good either.
Interesting theory tho 👍
Also, just to add, I personally and strongly believe Pikmin 4 is like…an alternate universe game

[egg_ox]

The mastermind? Louie just wants to eat food and be left alone, man

[moonyandpadfoot]

Louie isn’t evil he is just broken. His aunt made him go outside and eat bugs and made him eat a lot of PikPikcarrots.
The reason he ate the golden pikpikcarrots is because he couldn’t resist the urge to eat the golden pikpikcarrots. When he got stranded on pnf-404 he was good in fact doing amazing he just wanted to stay there.

[leoooooo]

Also louie: Mmm... Funny planet with food, I may Bring My grandma to this Place

[CelticVampireQueen]

This is a theory I've had for a long time about Pikmin too! Louie is so relatable, I'd love to eat random things on another planet!

[andrescube]

Louie is my favorite character in Pikmin, I wish he was in smash because he is such an interesting character.

[hippothehippo]

I like to think that there is both a super natural Cthulhu like force in this universe AND Louie who is just a crazy psycho

[llewelynshingler]

A mastermind with dubious impulse control

[eeveefennecfox]

yeah, I've always knew there had to be a reason why I hated louie so much, something is wrong with him

[Agent__draws]

Listen a lot of people miss this, in pikmin 4 wen a random day ends olimar says that he said to Louie that "what ever i do you do ok?" And so wen he turned into a lefing then Louie did what lifthing olimar did and i don't know if louie has hearing problems but wen a day ends in pikmin 2 ONE time he's Grandma says that he became friends with a lot of different bugs and eat a lot of them wen he was little. And I realised that, he seems to have a lot of disabilitys problems like he can't think very well and mental things he just doesn't even know what he's doing anymore with his life.
(Btw sorry if i spelled enithing rong, i just want the pikmin community to realise what is actually happening in this story )

(Good theary video though 👍)

Pikmin is E-rated version of Dead Space.
MAKE US WHOLE LOUIE.

[myfloofydog]

Louie literally wants you to find dwarf bulborbs before the onion (so he can eat them)

[seanimo]

You forgot to mention that the Golden Pikpik Carrots were meant to replenish Koppai’s food supply, and eating them indirectly led to their famine, which led to them discovering PNF-404.
