I'll use this table to figure out, once and for all, what happens in every extinction-related scenario, in every game.

Action	In other areas
Outside, lose your last Red.	No Reds.
	Buried Reds.
Outside, lose your last Pikmin.	No Pikmin.
	Buried Pikmin.
Outside, turn your last Red into a Yellow.	No Reds.
	Buried Reds.
Sunset, lose your last Red.	No Reds.
	Buried Reds.
Sunset, lose your last Pikmin.	No Pikmin.
	Buried Pikmin.
In cave, lose only the Pikmin you brought.		N/A		N/A
In cave, lose your last Red.	No Reds.	N/A		N/A
	Buried Reds.	N/A		N/A
In cave, lose your last Pikmin.	No Pikmin.	N/A		N/A

Outside, 99 Yellows + 1 Red in the area, swap your last Red for a Yellow.	No Reds.

Loose notes

What a mess this is...

Well, nothing happened then. The Onion will only eject a seed 1) the day after the extinction 2) if there are no Pikmin of that type planted somewhere on the area

2016-07-28 20:58:45	@Espyo	that's good info to add
2016-07-28 20:59:30	Marty2000	For Pikmin 2, entering a cave and leaving it is considered as "a new day" (it's the same behaviour as P1, except that you can enter and leave the cave to have an Onion eject a seed, instead of ending the day)
2016-07-28 21:02:07	@Espyo	right
2016-07-28 21:20:41	Scruffy	So in /Pikmin/, there's an extinction cutscene only if you begin a day an area with no Pikmin of one type and there are no Pikmin buried there?
2016-07-28 21:24:38	Marty2000	Yes
2016-07-28 21:26:21	Scruffy	Cool, so that means it may not necessarily be an extinction if Pikmin are buried in a different area, but the game treats it as an extinction
