I like the idea for this article, but I'm not sure whether it would work as a Pikipedia article. The main issue is that it can sometimes be hard to define what counts as an unintended way to collect an item. In many cases it's clear, but there are some cases where it's not as clear. For example, in the Garden of Hope, to collect the [[Searing Acidshock]] in the crystal, you're supposed to build the orange bridge to access the plateau it's on, and some of the orange fragments are underwater and require Blue Pikmin to carry, but it's possible to half-build the bridge with the fragments that are not in the water, throw a leader across, and collect the fruit with Rock Pikmin and Winged Pikmin. Does this count as an unintended way to collect it? The other issue with this page is that a lot of this information is already documented on Pikmin type articles, which have lists of cases where an object is intended to be collected with a certain Pikmin type but can be collected by other types. Documenting this information here as well would be duplicating the information, which is not ideal since it means that any change in one location also has to be made in the other location. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 06:25, May 15, 2024 (EDT)

:Yes, I like the idea too, but information could just be put on the pages about those things. Also, Soprano, I would consider that to be an unintended way of getting that fruit. Reminds me of how I like to build the bridge to the Shower Room's entrance with Blues instead of Yellows. {{User:Cheepy/sig}} 18:54, May 15, 2024 (EDT)

What counts as an unintended way?

I like the idea for this article, but I'm not sure whether it would work as a Pikipedia article. The main issue is that it can sometimes be hard to define what counts as an unintended way to collect an item. In many cases it's clear, but there are some cases where it's not as clear. For example, in the Garden of Hope, to collect the Searing Acidshock in the crystal, you're supposed to build the orange bridge to access the plateau it's on, and some of the orange fragments are underwater and require Blue Pikmin to carry, but it's possible to half-build the bridge with the fragments that are not in the water, throw a leader across, and collect the fruit with Rock Pikmin and Winged Pikmin. Does this count as an unintended way to collect it? The other issue with this page is that a lot of this information is already documented on Pikmin type articles, which have lists of cases where an object is intended to be collected with a certain Pikmin type but can be collected by other types. Documenting this information here as well would be duplicating the information, which is not ideal since it means that any change in one location also has to be made in the other location. — Soprano(talk) 06:25, May 15, 2024 (EDT)
