== Calling the flowers ingame "Chaenostoma cordatum" == | |||
The page consistently treats the flowers that appear in-game as literally being Chaenostoma cordatum. This, I feel, is not something verifiably true, and shouldn't be included. Not only was the Chaenostoma cordatum bred to promote {{p1}} during its launch ''(how can Pikmin be based on a flower that was specifically bred to resemble them?)'', but the [https://www.nintendo.com/whatsnew/ask-the-developer-vol-10-pikmin-4-part-1/ recent interview] shows concept art of Pikmin with different flowers, the one closest resembling the final being thr '''feverfew''', not the cordatum. I think the page needs to be heavily rewritten to focus on the actual real-world flower that is called Chaenostoma cordatum, and not the stylized generic flowers they vaugely resemble.--[[User:PopitTart|PopitTart]] ([[User talk:PopitTart|talk]]) 00:33, October 1, 2023 (EDT) | |||
