*If 98 Pikmin are buried, and 2 Pikmin are carrying items (I tried the two Dessiccated Skitter Leaves) when a bomb rock kills the Arachnode, the Pikmin furthest from the master Onion will be returned exactly when a Winged seed is ejected. However, the item will not actually be physically dropped until the cutscene is over.

*(Suggested by En_Passant) If 98 Pikmin are buried, 1 Pikmin is in a dirt mound, and 1 Pikmin is carrying an item when the Arachnode is killed via bomb rock, the carrying Pikmin will be returned, not the dirt mound Pikmin. However, this might just may be an iteration of the "furthest from the master Onion" parameter.

==Pikmin 3 Extinctions==
So I went to explore the capacities of having 100 buried Pikmin in Pikmin 3 and extinctions (part of the allure is in the fact that this is my first extinction!). To start, I went to the [[Distant Tundra]] and buried 100 Pikmin of all three types, and then went to the [[Garden of Hope]] and drowned every non-buried Pikmin I had. First discovery: '''extinctions are automatically fixed'''. So I had to leave them behind at sunset. Returned to the [[Distant Tundra]]... and the Onion '''did not manufacture any new Pikmin'''. I was shocked... until I realised that I had buried Pikmin of all three types, and thus the Onion knew I had Pikmin of those types available. So I re-did the burying stage, ensuring that no Yellow Pikmin were buried, and drowned all of the Pikmin again. Sure enough, back in the Tundra, '''the only new Pikmin was Yellow''', and that Yellow '''was kept in the Onion'''.
