Documented an interesting gameplay oddity on my page. Not sure if it should be documented on the wiki as there's speculation, but I found it interesting enough to mention it somewhere at least.

I used to upload glitches or other gameplay oddities to my Youtube channel before playing Salmon Run. I'm likely to upload Pikmin 4 videos once the game has been released and for the purpose of contributing to the wiki. | I used to upload glitches or other gameplay oddities to my Youtube channel before playing Salmon Run.

==Leader throw preferences== | |||
In a voyage log in Pikmin 3, Charlie says that [[Pikmin 3 voyage log#Misc. 16|he'd rather throw Alph instead of Brittany]]. | |||
Gameplay-wise, I've noticed a few interesting things while messing around with the leaders. Requirement: no Pikmin should be following the player, and all leaders should be following. | |||
*While playing as Charlie, if the player is holding Brittany, Alph can be switched to. If Charlie is holding Alph, though, Brittany can't be switched to. | |||
*While playing as Alph, if the player is holding Charlie, Brittany can be switched to. If Alph is holding Brittany, then Charlie can't be switched to. | |||
*While playing as Brittany, if the player is holding Charlie, Alph can be switched to. If Brittany is holding Alph, then Charlie can't be switched to. | |||
Interestingly enough, this somewhat matches the leaders' preferences towards one another which players can infer from in-game conversations: | |||
*Alph admires Charlie > He'd rather not throw him (no confirmation on this). | |||
*Brittany prefers to interact with Alph and not so much with Charlie / she may be disgusted by Charlie > She'd rather throw Alph. Somewhat confirmed in the Japanese and French notes on the [[Mock Bottom]]. In the French version of the description specifically, Brittany comments "yuk" when thinking about Charlie. I don't know about the Japanese version. | |||
*Charlie presumably has a crush on Brittany > He'd rather throw Alph (and he confirms it in-game, as stated above). | |||
Ironically, Charlie would rather be a throwee than a thrower, as confirmed [[Pikmin 3 voyage log#Misc. 39|here]], but he can never be switched to (presumably because no one wants to throw him, according to the above theory). | |||
