I'm terrified at the fact that Louie can hold a grudge now. Watching the thing that kidnapped you struggle as you eat its limbs slowly and surely... terrifying
Olimar's entries feel more like they'd belong to one of the Pikmin 3 captains, particularly Alph. Not saying that as a slight, but part of me misses the scientific classifications and worldbuilding snippets of Pikmin 2's entries. On the other hand, this DOES present a Pikmin 1 angle to Olimar, which might've been what they were going for and is wholly charming in its own right!
I like the Violet Candypop Bud's entry as it's referencing a hack that Pikhacker showcased on his channel a few years ago of exactly that: a Purple and White Onion, alongside Purple and White Pellet Poseys
Haven't heard of it being used as a coffee substitute, but practically all of a dandelion, roots included, is not only edible but very healthy for you. You can even buy salad mixes in any given grocery store with dandelion greens mixed in
Dandelion plants in general were a very common source of nutrition in the US prior to the mid-20th century. They fell into disrepute and garnered hatred due to the (incredibly wasteful and odd) obsession with keeping a well-manicured lawn since dandelions are difficult to remove and spread easily. Prior to this, though, young dandelion greens were eaten in salads, the flowers were eaten as is or fried in batter, and the aforementioned root coffee was enjoyed as well. I will never not spread the dandelion love/lawn hate gospel
Your Pikmin 251 videos encouraged me to play Pikmin 251 for the first time. It was well worth it. Your Pikmin 2 Kaizo videos encouraged me to never play Pikmin 2 Kaizo, but I enjoyed watching them anyway =D
I like the way the Piklopedia entry for the Cyan Bulborb takes a new meaning after the addition of Moldy Dwarf Bulborbs in Pikmin 4. Unfortunately for Olimar we do have to fight zombie bulborbs now
I was glad to catch this stream, hope to catch another sometime soon. We gotta get revenge on that trainer guarding viridan forest. What he did to KrisPBacon is unacceptable.
commenting for good ol algy but also! seeing your videos made me wanna go back and replay all the pikmin games again. also rare to see pikmin content on youtube, keep it up my guy
glowstem indeed has a vanilla as do caustic dweevil and clover. but those had some of the best vanilla entries so i can't complain. edit: and shoot and beady long legs and man at legs and fun fact, the ranging bloyster is locked onto the captain id, hence why since the captains are slot switched, it switched colors.
I'm pretty sure the comment on the lock on being the wrong color was because for the event tags he switched olimar and Louies tags then switched the textures so when your Louie you are olimar in the games eyes will all the textures swapped
30:03 “What was once an exclusive subterranean species has since evolved to survive on land-“ But there’s land in the subterranean as well, you mean it can now survive on *the surface*. But don’t most subterranean species first evolve from surface dwellers? That means these frogs are awfully fickle with their lineage!
Pretty sure it's just alluding to the fact that the real reason for the colors being reversed is because Olimar and Louie had all their assets swapped, but the bloyster's colors are still the original code. So kind of poking at the 4th wall.
I noticed that some of the entries seem to be incorrectly formatted. For those that don’t know, if you type “ ” into a text string (yes, that is the name, string), it basically stops printing on that line and drops to the next, like this. I know from experience that in games that have text boxes like these, the text does naturally wrap around to the other side, ofte ntimes cutting words off, which just looks bad. If properly placed, the “ ” character (new line) can mitigate this issue. But it seems as though Pikhacker didn’t know where to place these so that the text would reach as close to the right edge as possible, so the box doesn’t look like it’s fully utilized. Don’t get me wrong, though. Pikhacker clearly has some writing prowess, as the writing itself is actually pretty good.
If Pikmin 4 contains both whiskerpillars and Cooking with Louie and the description doesn't involve "Squeeze them." is some way I'm going to be incredibly disappointed. Also pls no spoilers
Oof, I can't help but feel like Olimar's entries spend way too many words on telling us whether the species is new or returning and reacting to that, making them kinda bloated in length. Each entry could have started with "this familiar creature/variety of X" or "this new creature/variety of X" and gotten right to the meat of the entry.
Okay no. Why were you reading Olimar's Observations by replacing "I" with "you" and "I've/I'm" with "he's"? Why put in the extra effort to read them in a jarring way instead of just reading them normally? Are you trying to bother people so that they'll post a comment pointing it out which will boost the video?
louie eat s eveything !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
