Glitches in Pikmin: Difference between revisions

{{spoiler}}

{{game help|p|Mention some missing glitches, such as lying down to get Bulbears to push you through the wall, cutscene skipping, etc.}}

This is a collection of '''[[glitch]]es''' possible in the first ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' game, as well as its [[New Play Control! Pikmin|''New Play Control!'' remake]].

==Main==

===Counter glitch===

| effects = The Pikmin counter will display erroneous numbers, including a total of Pikmin on the field that doesn't correspond to the truth, and a number of Pikmin on the party superior to that of the field number.

| howto = So far, there is no known way to trigger the glitch on purpose. It seems to happen most often when Pikmin die with unconventional ways, especially by being killed by the [[Smoky Progg]]'s smoke trail. It also happens with some frequency with deaths caused by [[The Forest Navel]]'s [[Pit|abysses]], and when several Pikmin die at once. Furthermore, it can also be related to some bridge glitches. Lastly, the [[Glitches in Pikmin#Crushing glitch|crushing glitch]] can also sometimes trigger this.

| notes = [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Tilted objects|This glitch can also happen in ''Pikmin 2'']]. This is similar to the [[#Libra glitch|Libra glitch]], except that objects aren't normally irretrievable.

| explanation = Because of the game's physics and enforcement of gravity on objects, if Pikmin carrying the front of an object fall from an edge before the ones at the back do, the piece will be tilted. This is normal, but given that pieces falling from high places isn't common, the game doesn't handle it too well. Occasionally, it'll leave the piece tilted as the Pikmin are carrying it.

===Two-sectioned bridge===

| prerequisites = Have a built bridge.

| howto = There is no known way to cause this glitch purposely. Randomly, [[Female Sheargrub]]s will eat a bridge, but it'll be split, with the half opposite to the side being eaten float in mid-air.

==Minor==
