According to the game, a purple Pikmin weighs 10 grams, and a red bulbord weighs 10 grams. Is there any logical explainaton you guys can come up for this? Mine is that They don't really wheigh 10 grams, but the downward force they exert is 10 grams woorth, only when they are on a scale. Is this possibly plausible? Maybe some sort of chemical reaction?

== Resistance? == | |||
I think that putting in wind as a resistance is a valid answer, considering that it RESISTS wind. - [[User:Cocoandrew|Cocoandrew]] ([[User talk:Cocoandrew|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Cocoandrew|contribs]]) | |||
:(Please sign your edits to talk pages with '<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>'.) We need to decide, then, whether non-lethal hazards should be considered for the 'resistance' part of the infobox - because, yes, the current wording does imply they would fit. A problem I see with this is it could easily lead to including things like 'purples are resistant to Mitites so we should add Mitites as a resistance' - and I don't know about you, but including that in the infobox seems silly. | |||

::Yes, that was my main concern as well. If we don't consider only hazards, it's going to be one gigantic list. I can understand the logic behind it, but mentioning they're resistant to wind would be better suited in the article's body. It's a resistance to something non-lethal, so it's less important, hence, less worthy to be on the infobox. — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 07:39, 12 July 2012 (EDT) | |||

==Throw height== | |||
After comparing some screenshots, I realized that Purple Pikmin are thrown 0.8 times as high as normal types, in Pikmin 2.

:I saw the notes you took on your page. Seems convincing, but I have to ask: how did you test this? In a normal playthrough, Pikmin trip like once every hour. Did you just play for 50 hours straight or what? You should elaborate on these details, so that others can decide if the experiment is biased or not, and so that they can recreate it if they want to. I'm not saying I don't trust your result or skills. I'm actually pretty excited we can get closure on this.

== Weird sentence == | |||
The article says "These Pikmin possess the strange ability to anchor extra-dimensional entities such as the [[Waterwraith]] to the current dimension for a brief period due to the gravitational waves that are emitted when they are thrown." Is there any source for any of this? The Pikmin Garden Piklopedia just says the Waterwraith becomes purple and opaque after a strong impact, so to describe it as some strange trait of the Purple Pikmin doesn't seem right. [[User:2 B|2 B]] ([[User talk:2 B|talk]]) 08:24, December 12, 2023 (EST) | |||
:This looks like a synthesis of two different statements. Olimar's Piklopedia notes for Purple Pikmin say that their impact creates gravitational waves that warp spacetime. His voyage log for the Waterwraith says that it might show itself if you hit it with a gravitational wave. Combining these notes, the above seems like a correct conclusion. I'm in favor of keeping it. [[User:CortexCPU242|CortexCPU242]] ([[User talk:CortexCPU242|talk]]) 09:41, December 12, 2023 (EST) | |||
