******* Alternatively, we could just use Piklopedia order, which would put the ''Pikmin 2'' types in the order Hairy Bulborb, Orange Bulborb, and Fiery Bulblax. I also agree that using "Bulborb" instead of "Red Bulborb" is a better idea. I don't think there should be an "Other" option because it's better to limit the poll to just a few comparable types. Between the introduction order and the alphabetical order, I think the alphabetical order looks slightly better, but that's just my opinion. — [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 19:19, October 6, 2024 (EDT) | ******* Alternatively, we could just use Piklopedia order, which would put the ''Pikmin 2'' types in the order Hairy Bulborb, Orange Bulborb, and Fiery Bulblax.

******** It seems to come down to subjectivity; I think it's nice that both start with "Bulborb" at the top, but I generally think in a linear manner, so having one introduced in 4 with two 2 ones on the side is less favourable to me. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 20:22, October 6, 2024 (EDT) | ******** It seems to come down to subjectivity; I think it's nice that both start with "Bulborb" at the top, but I generally think in a linear manner, so having one introduced in 4 with two 2 ones on the side is less favourable to me. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 20:22, October 6, 2024 (EDT) | ||
* Some people have mentioned the idea of changing this question to be about which type they'd rather have as a pet. That would work as a poll, but the original question would also work as a poll. So should this be split into 2 poll ideas? — [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 17:16, October 6, 2024 (EDT) | * Some people have mentioned the idea of changing this question to be about which type they'd rather have as a pet.

** Don't you think they'd be a bit too similar? I feel like they'd be mutually exclusive, no? Or at least require over a year before the other is used.<br>I personally think that, if one is used, it should be the one about which is preferred as a pet; I feel like that has the most personality, and is kind of quirky which is a nice trait most polls don't have. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 18:40, October 6, 2024 (EDT) | ** Don't you think they'd be a bit too similar?

#**I agree that this poll would be better if it was about a specific game, but I'm not sure ''Pikmin 4'' would be the best game to choose because it's the game where electricity is the most similar to the other hazards.

#I just think that hazards are too similar for people to have an opinion on what is the "best designed". When I see this question, I just think of [[hazard generator]]s, and they function roughly the same. I don't think this is a good poll unfortunately. – '''[[User:Chazmatron|Chazmatron, signing off!]]''' [[User talk:Chazmatron|(TALK)]] 20:40, 26 March, 2026 (GMT) | #I just think that hazards are too similar for people to have an opinion on what is the "best designed".

***** Here's a proposal: there would be 4 polls, each 2 weeks long (or 1 month long if we wanted this to last for 2 poll periods). The first would be between the Empress Bulblax, Burrowing Snagret, Beady Long Legs, and Emperor Bulblax. The second would be between the Giant Breadbug, Pileated Snagret, Man-at-Legs, and Ranging Bloyster. The third would be between the Waterwraith, Segmented Crawbster, Raging Long Legs, and Titan Dweevil. The fourth would be between the winner of each of the previous 3 polls. Would this work? — [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 05:25, September 30, 2024 (EDT) | ***** Here's a proposal: there would be 4 polls, each 2 weeks long (or 1 month long if we wanted this to last for 2 poll periods).

* I think this poll could work if it asked about ''Pikmin 2'' exclusive bosses, without mentioning the final boss, which can be seen as a bit spoilery: Pileated Snagret, Ranging Bloyster, Segmented Crawbster, and the Raging Long Legs. "What is your favourite Pikmin 2-exclusive boss?". – '''[[User:Chazmatron|Chazmatron, signing off!]]''' [[User talk:Chazmatron|(TALK)]] 20:40, 26 March, 2026 (GMT) | * I think this poll could work if it asked about ''Pikmin 2'' exclusive bosses, without mentioning the final boss, which can be seen as a bit spoilery: Pileated Snagret, Ranging Bloyster, Segmented Crawbster, and the Raging Long Legs.

:: Of course, criteria for what people think of as bosses differs from person to person, but I think a general thing is a more difficult enemy that is used sparingly by the devs and always serves to impede the player from reaching what they protect. The Breadbug, a Puffy Blowhog, and a Pearly Clamclamp drop a ship part, but the latter two aren't the only ones of their kind that appear in their areas, and also either can't directly harm Pikmin or can't harm them unless they're directly attacked, which isn't incredibly threatening like a boss should be. This leaves the Breadbug, which I have never lost a single Pikmin to, and even in the instance where Pikmin are in danger of being lost to it, they can be very easily recovered as the Breadbug is dragging whatever they're carrying to its hole. That's the only entry I think could really be perceived as a boss, but its page here considers it an enemy, as does the majority of the community, to my knowledge. I know that list was ''not'' necessary, but I just wanted to comprehensively address the possibility of there being confusion. This obviously won't change anything about the actions of the participants of the poll, but does it make it a bit more acceptable for use?<br>I just realised that the Mamuta might not be collectively thought of as a boss, however, which might cause confusion. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 11:44, October 6, 2024 (EDT) | :: Of course, criteria for what people think of as bosses differs from person to person, but I think a general thing is a more difficult enemy that is used sparingly by the devs and always serves to impede the player from reaching what they protect.
