Talk:Combat

Stuff to add
There's a lot we can talk about. I'll list what I wrote on Pikcord and expand on it: &mdash; {EspyoT} 13:29, January 13, 2021 (EST)
 * Explain:
 * How Pikmin attack:
 * By standing up or latched on, and how in the former, they can rotate or latch on by themselves
 * How they can attack other leaders in competitive modes
 * How they decide to attack, by just being idle near a target, or being thrown at it, and how they can even enter combat with objects like eggs
 * How leaders can get damaged: simple damage, knockback, and crush, and the ramifications for recovering and getting hit by subsequent hits
 * Same with Pikmin, but also how they can catch on fire and so on
 * In Pikmin and Pikmin 2, Pikmin can lose their maturity, and in the case of P1, how they can leave behind sprouts for the next day if they die as a flower
 * More info about attacks:
 * Spicy Pikmin
 * How maturity affects it (or doesn't)
 * Petrified enemies
 * First latched-on hit (supposedly cause double damage in Pikmin 3)
 * How enemies attack:
 * How enemies that captured Pikmin will release them when they die before swallowing
 * Enemy in-fighting
 * How some enemy attacks have a limit of Pikmin they can capture/kill at once (WIP research here)
 * Tactics
 * It's usually a good idea to coax an enemy into shaking Pikmin off, and then rush at it while it's busy ending its shaking animation and preparing its next attack
 * How some enemies have weakspots, are vulnerable to certain actions like Dwarf Bulborbs getting crushed, etc.
 * Bomb rocks
 * Pikmin that get shaken off in a battle against the P3 Shaggy Long Legs can either stay on the ground forever (normal shake), or get up by themselves (joint de-hair shake). They also will not respond to being bumped, only to the whistle.

Do enemy attacks against the Leader count as attacks?
I think I should edit the Goolix’s page. －  ～✿ＬｏｎｇＴａｉｌＣａｔ３✿～  ＇ｓ　Ｄｉｓｃｕｓｓｉｏｎ ( ❀🌸❀She/Her/Hers❀🌸❀ ), 01:19, June 15, 2021 (EDT)
 * Are there any attacks that exclusively target leaders? &mdash; {EspyoT} 16:21, June 16, 2021 (EDT)
 * The Goolix slides towards Olimar, and Olimar only slowly, and Olimar loses health. －  ～✿ＬｏｎｇＴａｉｌＣａｔ３✿～  ＇ｓ　Ｄｉｓｃｕｓｓｉｏｎ ( ❀🌸❀She/Her/Hers❀🌸❀ ), 18:11, June 16, 2021 (EDT)
 * Hmm, I'm not sure how to document that. Are there other cases of the sort? &mdash; {EspyoT} 13:53, June 18, 2021 (EDT)
 * kageyamii, terribilis, and pseudooculli try to bite the leader. －  ～✿ＬｏｎｇＴａｉｌＣａｔ３✿～  ＇ｓ　Ｄｉｓｃｕｓｓｉｏｎ ( ❀🌸❀She/Her/Hers❀🌸❀ ), 13:06, July 28, 2021 (EDT)
 * What kind of question is this? No matter the target, it's still an attack. It's as simple as that.
