I have only played Pikmin 3, I'll get someday 1 and 2, but I can tell you what I think thanks to LetsPlaying.
Pikmin 2 > 3 >> 1
2 just has more little touches that make it more special (singing Pikmin, easter eggs, Piklopedia, the messages from Olimar's family...) and it just felt like it was new and fresh, different enough to Pikmin 1. Plus it had an amazing balance in difficulty (except for purple Pikmin).
Pikmin 3 is just a blast, I don't get how people are complaining for controls or gameplay. the bosses are epic and scary, and the music is gorgeus. The final area is incredibly great, I've never felt so inmersed by a game before. But it feels too much of doing the same until the game is over. In 2 you get money, but you don't know if whatever you get is worth enough to get it or not, while in Pikmin 3 any fruit helps.
Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
