=== Hairless Bulborb === | === Hairless Bulborb === | ||
While Bulborbs are hairless, there is no appearance of an enemy called Hairless Bulborb in ''Pikmin 4'', which is further compounded by the fact that a form of the [[Shaggy Long Legs]] does appear hairless in ''Pikmin 4'', as the [[Baldy Long Legs]], but since there is no Shaggy Long Legs proper in the game, the adjective "Baldy" on that enemy's name is a red herring, which coupled with the fact that an [[arachnorb]]'s default state is to not have hair, indicates that the Shaggy Long Legs is the only creature in the family with a name that discriminates its hair, but seeing as the Baldy Long Legs exists and is purposely named such in both games it appears, it is possible the term "Baldy" is not a red herring in the first place and is a valid word for an enemy's name even when it wouldn't ordinarily make sense, therefore making it so that a Hairless Bulborb, despite the term "Hairless" also being a similar red herring, could exist within a Bulborb's name in that exact form, but does not either due to an [[Mistake|inconsistency]] or because of a lack of Hairless Bulborbs in the game, if the hair on all other Bulborbs is thought to not exist in the first place, which is something never addressed in any of the characters' notes, and thus, a detail that is also not present in ''Pikmin 4''. | While Bulborbs are hairless, there is no appearance of an enemy called Hairless Bulborb in ''Pikmin 4'', which is further compounded by the fact that a form of the [[Shaggy Long Legs]] does appear hairless in ''Pikmin 4'', as the [[Baldy Long Legs]], but since there is no Shaggy Long Legs proper in the game, the adjective "Baldy" on that enemy's name is a red herring, which coupled with the fact that an [[arachnorb]]'s default state is to not have hair, indicates that the Shaggy Long Legs is the only creature in the family with a name that discriminates its hair, but seeing as the Baldy Long Legs exists and is purposely named such in both games it appears, it is possible the term "Baldy" is not a red herring in the first place and is a valid word for an enemy's name even when it wouldn't ordinarily make sense, therefore making it so that a Hairless Bulborb, despite the term "Hairless" also being a similar red herring, could exist within a Bulborb's name in that exact form, but does not either due to an [[Mistake|inconsistency]] or because of a lack of Hairless Bulborbs in the game, if the hair on all other Bulborbs is thought to not exist in the first place, which is something never addressed in any of the characters' notes, and thus, a detail that is also not present in ''Pikmin 4''. | ||
===Spotty Bulborb=== | |||
A common misconseption. Both the Spotty Bulborb and Red Bulborb are not in ''Pikmin 4''. They are instead replaced with the [[Bulborb]]. When asked, Shigeru Miyamoto said "Due to complaints of players that their Pikmin kept getting eaten in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', we decided to remove the Spotty Bulborbs and Red Bulborbs appearing in ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'' respectively, for the upcoming ''Pikmin 3'' game on [[Wii U]], which will be a launch title.

A few games include in-game encyclopedias that allow the player to learn more about a given subject in the game, but ''Pikmin 4'' is not one of them. It does contain a [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 4)|Piklopedia]], but not a Pikipedia, meaning it has no [[Special:AllPages|pages]], [[:Category:Images|images]], [[zelda:Link|links]], [[Pikipedia:April Fool's Day|editor projects]], or objective text. | A few games include in-game encyclopedias that allow the player to learn more about a given subject in the game, but ''Pikmin 4'' is not one of them.

==Lost Media== | |||
===''[[Pikmin.com SpaceForce]]''=== | |||
[[Pikmin.com SpaceForce'', the second game in the ''Pikmin'' franchise, and the first spinoff, is not present in the [[Nintendo Switch]] 2023 release ''Pikmin 4''. This is true despite the original being lost media, showing that Nintendo hates the ''Pikmin'' franchise, and wants the best game in the series to be lost to time. | |||
===The ''Fruit of the Loom'' cornucopia=== | |||
The cornucopia that is in the ''Fruit of the Loom'' logo is not present in ''Pikmin 4'', not even in a cutscene with [[Louie]] eating out of it. This again shows that Nintendo wants all lost media to be lost forever, until only ''Metroid Prime: Federation Force'' remains as media. This is especially important to preserve in this case, as the ''Fruit of the Loom'' cornucopia doesn't even exist. | |||
