(Documented an interesting gameplay oddity on my page. Not sure if it should be documented on the wiki as there's speculation, but I found it interesting enough to mention it somewhere at least.)

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).

==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 [[Iridescent Glint Beetle]] remains in the [[Glint beetle family]].
