Whistle: Difference between revisions

[[File:Whistle.png|thumb|Captain Olimar whistling 3 idle red Pikmin.]]The whistle is used by [[captains]] to call idle or working [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to them. This whistle is also used to rescue Pikmin from [[hazards]] such as fire, poison, or water. A small cursor the same color as the captain's light shows where the whistle will blow from. Holding the B button down makes the captain shoot a sound wave at the cursor, which causes a spectrum of colors to rotate around the cursor at a gradually increasing radius, and makes a whistling sound, which varies upon the captain whistling. [[Captain Olimar|Captain Olimar's]] whistle is a pea whistle, [[Louie|Louie's]] is a train whistle, and the [[The President|President's]] is a car horn. The maximum calling diameter of the whistle is about the same as the circular area an [[Onion]] lands on. This maximum can be increased in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' by collecting the [[Amplified Amplifier]] from the [[Shower Room]], which increases the range tremendously with the [[Mega Tweeter]] upgrade. Another upgrade for the whistle called the [[Pluckaphone]], which allows captains to pluck Pikmin sprouts from the ground instantly by calling at them. This upgrade can be received by collecting the [[Professional Noisemaker]] from the [[Submerged Castle]].
