There may be times where an Onion will want to eject a seed because of an extinction, but doing so would put more than [[100 Pikmin limit|100 Pikmin]] on the field. Each game has a specific way of handling this scenario. | There may be times where an Onion will want to eject a seed because of an extinction, but doing so would put more than [[100 Pikmin limit|100 Pikmin]] on the field.

==Extinctions on day 1== | |||
Normally, [[Day#Day 1|day 1]] serves as a tutorial for each game, so it is not possible to lose the Pikmin the player is given. Yet, in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3'', it is possible to cause an extinction using the right exploits. | |||
In ''Pikmin 2'' this is achieved by [[throw|holding]] a Pikmin, walking up to one of the walls near the ship, turning around such that the Pikmin is held inside the wall, and throwing the Pikmin. This will make it go inside the wall, and from there, it can be [[whistle]]d and ordered to go further into the terrain. Eventually, there will no longer be floor, and the Pikmin will fall to its death when it reaches the [[pit]]. Doing this with all the Pikmin that have joined the player up to that point will cause an extinction, and skip the rest of the events of day 1.{{cite youtube|IieBje4CqMo|of a ''Pikmin 2'' day 1 extinction}} | |||
In ''Pikmin 3'', there are two known ways to kill Pikmin on the first day. Given unknown circumstances, Pikmin can [[Glitches in Pikmin 3#Dirt wall glitch|fall through the dirt wall]] encountered on that day, go through the terrain, and fall into the [[pit]]. A more reliable way involves [[throw|holding]] a Pikmin, walking to a corner, hugging the ledge that stops the player from returning to the pool Alph landed on, making Alph face away from the corner, and [[whistling]] such that Alph releases the Pikmin. With the right execution, the Pikmin will be dropped inside the wall. From there, the Pikmin simply falls into the pit and dies.{{cite youtube|5Z7KuPo76I4|of a Pikmin being killed on day 1 in ''Pikmin 3''|published={{date|12|December|2016}}|retrieved={{date|19|January|2020}}}} | |||

It involves tricking the game into letting the leaders inside a cave with 0 Pikmin, which requires going in and [[dismiss]]ing the Pikmin at the exact same time. | *Through the use of a [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Fake Pikmin extinction|glitch in ''Pikmin 2'']], it's possible to have the game instantly declare a Pikmin extinction the second a cave is entered.
