Glitches in Pikmin: Difference between revisions

→‎Pikmin-related: Added a new glitch with a video demonstration, first showing the "Seeds with maturity" glitch (for the sake of completion) and then the new glitch ("Instant Pikmin Evolution") I added. Whether the glitch is "Helpful" or "Harmless" is debatable since it would be quite time-consuming to flower lots of Pikmin this way.
(Added the glitch from the debugging tapes.)

| effects = Makes a [[Candypop Bud]] convert 11 Pikmin instead of 10.
| howto = Throw 9 Pikmin onto a Candypop Bud. Then, throw a 10th Pikmin as a Yellow Pikmin, and a fraction of a second after, a 11th Pikmin as either a Red Pikmin or a Blue Pikmin. With the right timing, the 11th Pikmin will land on the Candypop Bud at the same time as the 10th. The 11th Pikmin will cling to the side of the Candypop Bud, begin attacking it, and after a bit, it will also squeal and disappear. The plant will then spit out 11 converted Pikmin.

===Instant Pikmin Evolution===
{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Helpful | p1 = Yes | npcp1 = Yes | youtube = 8aEfwUnDZFI
| effects = Planted Pikmin will evolve or stay at the [[Maturity|flower stage]].
| howto = Having prior knowledge of the [[Glitches in Pikmin#Seeds with maturity|maturity glitch]] with seeds would be helpful. Have any number of planted Pikmin from an [[Onion]], [[Candypop Bud]] or [[Swooping Snitchbug]] evolve to the bud or flower stages and [[Pluck|pluck]] them. Then, have a Swooping Snitchbug capture Pikmin (preferably leaf Pikmin). When the Swooping Snitchbug plants the captured Pikmin, they will instantly regrow with buds or flowers. The number of Pikmin affected by this glitch corresponds to the number of Pikmin that grew with buds or flowers prior to the glitch, although subsequent Pikmin can easily be affected if more bud or flower Pikmin are plucked.
| normal = Any Pikmin planted by Swooping Snitchbugs should revert to their leaf stage.
| explanation = See [[Glitches in Pikmin#Seeds with maturity|maturity glitch]] for more information. It is unknown why only Pikmin specifically planted by Swooping Snitchbugs are permanently affected by the maturity glitch.
