Welcome to my User page. I was an active user on Pikipedia back in 2016 before getting fully involved in other communities. I intend to become somewhat active again with Pikmin 4 being released in just a few months. This page lists things that I took note of during gameplay but did not add anywhere on the wiki back then, although since this page has not been edited for many years now, other contributors might have already added information to the relevant pages. If that is the case, I will delete duplicate information, or you can let me know directly. | |||

==Leader throw preferences== | |||
In a voyage log in Pikmin 3, Charlie says that [[Pikmin 3 voyage log#Misc. 16|he'd rather throw Alph instead of Brittany]]. | |||
Gameplay-wise, I've noticed a few interesting things while messing around with the leaders. Requirement: no Pikmin should be following the player, and all leaders should be following. | |||
*While playing as Charlie, if the player is holding Brittany, Alph can be switched to. If Charlie is holding Alph, though, Brittany can't be switched to. | |||
*While playing as Alph, if the player is holding Charlie, Brittany can be switched to. If Alph is holding Brittany, then Charlie can't be switched to. | |||
*While playing as Brittany, if the player is holding Charlie, Alph can be switched to. If Brittany is holding Alph, then Charlie can't be switched to. | |||
Interestingly enough, this somewhat matches the leaders' preferences towards one another which players can infer from in-game conversations: | |||
*Alph admires Charlie > He'd rather not throw him (no confirmation on this). | |||
*Brittany prefers to interact with Alph and not so much with Charlie / she may be disgusted by Charlie > She'd rather throw Alph. Somewhat confirmed in the Japanese and French notes on the [[Mock Bottom]]. In the French version of the description specifically, Brittany comments "yuk" when thinking about Charlie. I don't know about the Japanese version. | |||
*Charlie presumably has a crush on Brittany > He'd rather throw Alph (and he confirms it in-game, as stated above). | |||
Ironically, Charlie would rather be a throwee than a thrower, as confirmed [[Pikmin 3 voyage log#Misc. 39|here]], but he can never be switched to (presumably because no one wants to throw him, according to the above theory). | |||
Additional information from [[User:Soprano|Soprano]]: | |||
*When playing as Alph/Brittany, you can switch from holding Olimar to Louie, but not from Louie to Olimar. | |||

==Treasure and Enemy Description in the Switch Port== | |||
Some enemies and treasures may have different notes in the Switch port. They will be listed here for now. | |||
===[[Cupid's Grenade]]=== | |||
'''Olimar's notes:''' "''What a perplexing fruit... This appears to be from a tree that produces two types of berries that look identical. But some inspire romance, and others do the opposite. It's not easy to tell which is which. I'd better be careful with them. I should also warn Louie, or else he may try to bake this berry in a pie.''" | |||
===[[Insect Condo]]=== | |||
'''Olimar's notes:''' "''Internal scans reveal that this juicy nugget can support a symbiotic community! Imagine the benefits... The Ship can't stand to even look at bugs, let alone store them. But I had to put my foot down on this one.''" | |||
===[[Love Nugget]]=== | |||
'''Olimar's notes:''' "''This tasty red snack isn't quite a fruit, but doesn't seem like a vegetable either. I've analyzed it extensively, and it appears to be releasing stimulating pheromones. I can imagine my wife and I cooking this into some memorable meals.''" | |||
[[ | ===[[Anti-hiccup Fungus]]=== | ||
'''Olimar's notes:''' "''What a shocking taste! ...I suppose young people, like Louie, might find it tasty, but the flavor is too intense for me!''" | |||
===[[Science Project]]=== | |||
'''Olimar's notes:''' "''I think I'll take this plant back to my boy as a souvenir of my grand expedition! It'll make the perfect topic for his science-fair project!''" | |||
===[[Conifer Spire]]=== | |||
'''Olimar's notes:''' "''I've paid off all of the company's debts, but I find myself returning to this planet yet again! This time, I must find and rescue Louie! I've been scouring the wilderness we landed on. As I scour this region, I can't help but feel lonely for my faithful sidekick. Even if he does eat all of the ship's on-board snacks. Because of my loneliness, I've dubbed this rough region the Wistful Wild.''" | |||
===[[Boom Cone]]=== | |||
'''Olimar's notes:''' "''Today we explored the remains of wooden structures found deep underground. I can't imagine who on this uncivilized planet might have created such a place. We'll have to wait until later to make sense of this maze, but this place intrigues me. As for this object we found there, we hope to fathom its true purpose in time!''" | |||
===[[Yellow Wollywog]]=== | |||
The creature is called Yellow Wollyhop in the port (as it was in the EU versions of the NPC! releases) and its scientific name is now "Amphicaris frondiferorum". This change is also reflected in Olimar's notes for the [[Wolpole]]. | |||
===[[Doodlebug]]=== | |||
The Doodlebug is no longer in the [[Flint bug family]] but now in the [[Flint beetle family]]. The [[Glint Beetle]] remains in the [[Glint beetle family]]. | |||
