User:Espyo/Pikmin cap

These tables contain the Pikmin cap for all enemy attacks, as discussed here. What happens is that while most attacks kill or affect all Pikmin that it comes into contact with, others have a cap. For instance, a Spotty Bulbear can chomp a large number of Pikmin, but no more than 5 will be killed.

To obtain these values, 100 Pikmin were submitted to the attacks, as close as possible to one another, so that the most amount of Pikmin possible would collide with the attack. Several tests were made for each attack, just to be extra sure. For completion's sake, non-fatal attacks that are relevant will also be added (e.g. Puffstool's spore spray). Besides the number cap of Pikmin, there are also the following special cases:


 * ?: Info missing.
 * Unknown: ...it's unknown. The enemy can kill several Pikmin with an attack, but not all Pikmin in the group. In other words, some Pikmin that clearly should've died are left alive. This indicates that there is a cap to the number of Pikmin that can die in a single attack. However, that number either changes with unknown circumstances, is random, or is otherwise very hard to find.
 * 100: Supposedly there is no limit. Any Pikmin that gets caught by that attack will suffer from it.
