Hey, I made this topic to discuss editing the page. The main reason I did this is because I noted that Dwarf Red Bulborbs will release uneaten Pikmin from their jaws upon death, but I haven’t completely checked this over. The only reason I put the unproven information was as a placeholder; I will probably edit the page to note that this piece of info is not entirely proven. If someone could test whether or not Dwarf Red Bulborbs release Pikmin upon death, that would be appreciated. — [[User:SeaSideShell|SeaSideShell]] ([[User talk:SeaSideShell|talk]]) 20:12, July 16, 2021 (EDT)

:What's going on here is that almost all enemies have a delay between when they eat Pikmin and when the Pikmin dies. In the case of the Dwarf Bulborb, it bites forward, catching a Pikmin, and then chews for a couple of seconds, and only after the chewing animation is complete does the Pikmin die. If you defeat the enemy during this eating animation, then the Pikmin won't die and will be released. In ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', this happens at the end of the death animation, while in ''Pikmin 3'', it happens instantly (I think, I'm not totally sure on that being the case in all cases). It's not unique to the Dwarf Bulborb. &mdash; [[User:Botanist|'''Botanist''']]<sub>[[User talk:Botanist|''(talk)'']]</sub> 23:15, July 16, 2021 (EDT)

:Thanks for the confirmation, I will keep the info on the page. I just needed to make sure that I wasn’t putting false info on the wiki on accident. — [[User:SeaSideShell|SeaSideShell]] ([[User talk:SeaSideShell|talk]]) 13:25, July 17, 2021 (EDT)
