...there's already a more complete draft page on this same topic, and the contents of this page should be merged into it.
(The Beady Long Legs' presumed glitch, and the rumor about the Ujdani going away/your save file being deleted after day 300 is already documented. And other things, such as Rainbow Pikmin, aren't documented at all, so this isn't repetition. Things similar to this are documented on other wikis, such as the Super Mario Wiki. And we need to inform the new fans. Using 'you' is also acceptable, as I list guides on how you supposedly perform the action. Someone please add citations. Don't ban pls.)

Supposedly, you can get [[Purple Pikmin]] in [[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]. These are not the Purple Pikmin in [[''Pikmin 2'']], but rather [[Blue Pikmin]] turned purple. To get them, you have to land in [[The Impact Site]], get one Blue Pikmin, and throw it into the water near the [[Pearly Clamclamps]], then end the day. You would then return to The Impact Site. When you go back to the water, you will supposedly see a Purple Pikmin. Of course, if you actually try it, the only thing you will get is one Blue Pikmin lost to sunset. The Purple Pikmin in the video were most likely obtained with cheat codes that changed the color of Blue Pikmin. The oldest known video of this can be found [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iRZupKhC68 here].
