Can Pikmin released by mistake be recovered?

I accidentally released my Pikmin instead of removing them from the platoon. Is there any way to contact technical support to have them restored?

Based on the message “This cannot be undone (the translation content may be incorrect),” it appears that unfortunately, there’s no current solution for this.

When I accidentally released my currently-growing “2025 Ornament Pikmin” last week, I nearly cried in frustration.

I can understand a menu option like “We’ll address this if you pay 10,000 coins,” but I doubt there’s any chance of such a solution being implemented.

While a menu option like “We’ll address this if you pay 10,000 coins” might make sense, I don’t think they’re likely to implement a solution in that direction.
