Pikmipedia sounds better than Pikipedia, I think.


I disagree. Pikmipedia is sorta hard to pronounce, its too long, people might think it is Pikminpedia, and pikipedia as a certain photonical ring that pikmipedia dosen't have. -IAMAHIPO_ocolor


I agree. Pikmipedia sounds more stressed then Pikipedia. Pikipedia just sort of flows off the tongue.  -Nagikama

Now, I just noticed something. Have you noticed that the Spotty Bulbear and Dwarf Bulbear have different scientific names? Oculus terribilis for Dwarf Bulbear, and Oculus terribilis dotticum for Spotty Bubear. And yet they say that Dwarf and Spotty Bulbears are the same species. I know this idea is not thoroughly looked at or studied, but I propose that Dwarf Bulbears are in fact different species than Spotty Bulbears. They are, as their name implies, dwarf Bulbears. They're small versions of Spotty Bulbears. But, "Why do they follow the Spotty Bulbears" is an excellent question. Spotty Bulbears can smell you across the map in Pikmin 2, right? Well, while the Spotty Bulbear is an expert hunter, Dwarf Bulbears just sniff the ground. So when they see a Spotty Bulbear hunting, they foolow it, because it will lead them to food. You're probably thinking, "Well, why does he let them follow him, 'cuz they're just going to steal his food." You see, they form a symbiotic relationship. You've probably found it hard to kill a Spotty Bulbear with the Dwarf Bulbears following it. They help the Spotty Bulbear defend itself. That concludes my theory.


I think the suffixes of spotty bulbears are a part of a scientific name that denotes what stage the speices is in development. [[User:IAMAHIPO ocolor|ocolor]] 00:59, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
Can someone tell me why my music turned into an image?
 
Uh, translated the names mean "terrible eye", and dotticum, much like dotticus or just dottus, aren't really latin words. So, really, the scientific names in Pikmin shouldn't be overated.--[[User:Prezintenden|<b><span style="color:Gray">Prezintenden</span></b>]]<sub>[[User talk:Prezintenden|<span style="color:orange">(babble)</span>]]</sub>
 
EEEEEEEEeeooops! Thanks peoples. I didn't know they could be classified by age.
 
Say, if that's the case, then why do the Armored Cannon Beetle Larva and the Armored Cannon Beetle have the same scientific names?
 
Err, Pikmin 2 has... holes... . Not everything can be explained (a red bulborb (big creatures!) weigh as much as 10 purple Pikmin.) It is best to nt overthink things. I guess it is the same name b/c they are in different games, and there is only 2  stages. The Spotty Bulbear has 3 or 4 stages. [[User:IAMAHIPO ocolor|ocolor]] 00:51, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
 
Care to explain what those stages are?
 
Also, is there any one here that knows a LOT of friends that play Pikmin 2? If you reach 10000 pokos by just collecting bulborb carcasses in the first cave, without going to the other areas, what happens? I am up to 900 Pokos, but that took about 3 hours. I have done some calculations and it seems that it takes aprox. 24 hours to get 10000 pokos. Anyone up for it? I ask if anyone has friends so that they can divi up the work. Or if someone has a gameshark? [[User:IAMAHIPO ocolor|ocolor]] 00:51, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
 
Apparently SOMEbody didn't like most of my Pikmin ideas! "Red Pikmin have waxy skin"?! "Yellow Pikmin emit electricity out there ears"?! Ring a bell?!
 
:Yes, that was me. This is a wiki; meaning that everything here should be true and proveable. Your ideas were intersting, but made up, thus I had to remove them. Also, why would Yellows emit electricity out of their ears? It is not possible to turn electricity into waves, and lets not even argue about the fact that it would exit through their feet to the ground.
 
Well, what about the ears catching wind currents? You left that part in.
 
:Yes, I have to admit, stricktly speaking, I should have deleted it as well, but because I found that to be a very reasonable thought, and I recall reading it on other pages here aswell, I kept it. If you think you found any proof for any of your other suspections, then feel free to post them on a talk page.

:And getting the 10.000 poko mark with carcasses will not do anything. You'll be able to acess the Wistful Wild without having to go to the other locations; but that's all.--[[User:Prezintenden|<b><span style="color:Gray">Prezintenden</span></b>]]<sub>[[User talk:Prezintenden|<span style="color:orange">(babble)</span>]]</sub>
 
So, if you were an expert player, (and could beat the titan dweevil with just red pikmin), you could feasibly beat the game in three days...{{User:Me_just_in/sig}}17:03, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
 
:Doesn't it take longer than one or two days to collect 10,000 Pokos in that way?  And I don't consider beating the Titan Dweevil Beating the game, just collecting 10,000 Pokos as completion, then all treasures as 100% completion.  This means that, if you're quick enough with the repeating cave thing, you could beat the game (10,000 Pokos) in 2 or 3 days, yes.  Now I ''have'' to do it, to get that record.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
 
I thought that the day where you have to find the globe is unlimitedly long? ...No? I'm not sure, but if so, you really only need three days for the Dweevil. But, like you said, just getting Louie back doesn't complete the game.--[[User:Prezintenden|<b><span style="color:Gray">Prezintenden</span></b>]]<sub>[[User talk:Prezintenden|<span style="color:orange">(babble)</span>]]</sub>
 
:No, only day one has no limit.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}

Hmmm... do you think that Purple Pikmin are heavy because their cells are extremely tightly packed together so there is more room for other cells?
 
Why should they? They have more mass than the other Pikmin, so why should they have a more compact structure? Also, you would have to speak about the alignment of the atoms, and not cells (if there would be free space between the cells, the body would collapse).
 
What do you mean why should they!? They're only three times bigger! That means they should way only 3 grams! Hello? Anyone home? Wake up and smell the coffee!
 
And besides! I was looking for an answer, not a question, doofus!
 
Hey, let's not overdo it, shall we? I thought that that would suffice as an aswer, but apperantly not: No. there are some things in pikmin that just aren't logical. My favorite example: [[Careening Dirigibug|this one]]. A bug floating with baloons? What would be naturally explainable by that? To make it clear. some things just haven't been clearly specified in Pikmin. Read [[Talk:Purple Pikmin|this]] if you want to have an example to that.
 
:Exactly; even though a lot of Pikmin is based on science or supposedly so, it doesn't have to make perfect sense.  If it does, then the Purple Pikmin are more dense than the others through some means or another.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
 
Alright, let me make this easy for you, dipsticks. Draw the shape of a Purple Pikmin. Now draw some circles inside it that all are touching eachother. Now draw another Purple Pikmin shape and draw a  bunch of circles that are really tightly packed together. Get the picture now? If you don't, I don't know how to make it any easier.
 
Alright, I have some questions, and I want some answers. I want you to fill out this questionare. I don't want exact answers, just your theory. I want it filled out in one week, then I'll add my own theories. The Bonus question is optinial, and don't forget to think outside the box, but make it logical. Okay? Here you go:
 
Why are Red Pikmin fireproof?
 
Answer: It is never explained, so we cannot know. A waxy skin ''could'' be possible.
My Answer: Red ikmin have a waxy coat of fire proof substance.
 
Why are Yellow Pikmin electricproof?
 
Answer: Electricity will definetly not turn into harmless waves, and it can't enter their body, as that would give a shock nonthless. We just do not know!
 
My Answer: Their sweat hardens into a waxy coat that does not conduct electricity, but melts away when exposed to high temperatures.
 
Why do Pikmin (besides Blue Pikmin) hate water?
 
Answer: Like some other animals, they have to re-learn swimming first, which they don't do?
 
My Answer: The water clings to their leaf, bud, or flower which they breathe through so they are unable to breathe.
 
How do Blue Pikmin breathe underwater?
 
Answer: Gills. Has been proven.
 
My Answer: Water and oxygen enters the stalk and the water exits out the gill
 
Why are Purple Pikmin so heavy?
 
Answer: An unexplainable reason to make the game more intersting, but more unlogical aswell. Really, I'm just repeating what I, and even Greenpickle, already said!
 
My Answer: Once again, their cells are really clustered together, so they weigh a lot more.
 
What are Careening Dirigibugs "Balloons"?
 
Answer: Some standard polymere baloons. Made to make enemy look funny, but illogical. Olimar describes them as air sacks. Did he say they were organic? No!
 
My Answer: They're organic outer floatation sacs that the bug blows helium into.
 
Why are White Pikmin poisonproof?
 
Answer: They're body could be immune to the poison in the game. Is it further explained? No!
 
My Answer: They filter the poison out their stalk
 
BONUS!!
How do Olimar and Louie throw Purple Pikmin?
 
Answer: Again, not explained! Just to make Purple Pikmin easier to control.
 
My Answer:They do most of the work in those tosses. Grabbing their stalk  signals them to jump.
 
Pikmin is what it is: a game. Don't overdo things. Also, this circle Pikmin is completely wrong. I assume that those circles are cells, correct? These circles do not connect to each other everywhere. That means free space, which means that the body would be fragile. You would have to work with squares. But it goes on: Smaller circles (or rather orbs) mean less weight. However, you have made up for some of the free space now, meaning more mass, '''''but''''', if you would have used squares or some other polygon form like in reality, the overall mass would be the same, regardless of the outer form size.
 
Well you can just say that to my BUTT because its the only thing listenin'.
 
'''''There''''', I hpoe you could get some information out of that. If you ''still'' think that there is something wrong with the Purples, then you oversaw the small fact that it's still a game, and I will then no longer discuss this.--[[User:Prezintenden|<b><span style="color:Gray">Prezintenden</span></b>]]<sub>[[User talk:Prezintenden|<span style="color:orange">(babble)</span>]]</sub>
