ive noticed in the Pikmin games the enemies only go after pikmin, which makes sense from a gameplay standpoint but not from an ecological standpoint

like at many points its shown that the onions have very few pikmin when you first find them. And its not like they're out in the wild either, because you only see that a few times, and its never very many - the blue pikmin in pikmin 2, the yellow pikmin and red pikmin in pikmin 3, and the wild cave pikmin in 4. There's more enemies around than pikmin, and there's no way any of these creatures can sustain themselves with the few wild pikmin around.

and we know that most enemies aren't going to be omnivorous. We can see their mouths.

THIS GUY DOESN'T HAVE ANY MOLARS. he can't eat a leaf, he'd be incapable of chewing it. and i would say maybe he could squish a berry in his mouth, but they're either extremely spicy or gigantic- too big to squish.

Many enemies also don't have mouths or don't eat pikmin or anything visibly on screen. This may seem like a grave sin, but there is a likelihood that they are simply the breeding adult stage of a species who basically only has sex and dies after reaching maturity. I can deal with those guys.

The only exceptions i know of are sheargrubs, shearwigs, and maybe the breadbugs. Sheargrubs and wigs because they eat bridges. and breadbugs because, while we never see them eat, they do drag other enemy corpses into their burrows. They can eat down there. I also know that bulborb larvae are often cannablized, but there is no energy gain to the parents. its a net negative - they spent energy making that child, and they physically cannot get their return investment unless that larva ate more than it spent, which again is unlikely because there aren't enough pikmin to feed them!

So what are they eating? do they wait until the night to feed on each other? have the pikmin killed off all the weak herbivores, leaving only the predators?

I don't know, man. sorry to pikminpost on main

Eggtober 5th 2023

"Endless Eggs": Sheet Pan Fried Eggs

(Clip Studio Paint: Gouache Brush, Pencil brush for highlights, and Airbrush tool for the pepper. 6 colors, 45 minutes.) Coming in right under the wire for this one! I learned a new skill about how to tile a piece. It should tile perfectly, but if anyone finds seams, let me know. Sheet pan eggs are a great way to cook a lot of eggs and a great way to paint a piece when you're low on time. @lady-quen's Breadbug army may have a rough time getting this one back to the burrow, but they're welcome to snack on as much as they can! And as always, big thanks to @quezify for organizing and inspiring this event. Eggs are just fun as hell to draw.

I beat Pikmin 1 in 9 Days

Okay, so first off, that's not /that/ big a deal. It's not a tie for the world record or anything, however it is, as far as I know, the quickest the game can be beat without exploiting any major glitches.

I purposely went out of my way to do this run without researching the optimal path because figuring out everything myself was fun. Pikmin is one of my favorite games of all time and I usually replay it once a year

So, now I'm gonna go over that, what my process was, and do so in a way you'll understand even if you haven't played Pikmin.

So first, let's disect what those days actually mean. The time limit for the game is 30 Days, in which you have to collect 30 ship parts. Days themselves are 13 minutes and 30 seconds long in Pikmin 1.

There are 5 areas in the game, so naturally you'd think, "Well, can't you just do it in 5 days then? Finish each area a day?"

And that's a blatant 'No' (at least without glicthes)

Day 1 must always be spent in the Impact Site for the tutorial. Here you will get 1 Part and 25 Red Pikmin regardless of how good you actually do. There's another part here, but both yellows and blues are required to get it.

Meaning that 2 Days must already be used to get 1 part each. When you mix this with the final area, it means 3 days of this run have to be spent wasting an entire day on a single part. Meaning the other 6 is where we have to get the remaining 27 Ship Parts.

Day 2 is also very limited in what you can do. You have to break down a wall and build up reds while doing so which already takes more of the day than you'd like.

Now in a normal run, this wouldn't be a big deal. I'd build up reds, get Yellow Pikmin, build them up and get at least two parts.

However that's a colossal waste of time in this run.

The Forest of Hope (where you go in Day 2) has 8 ship parts. So you'd think. Okay, build up yellows and reds first day there and then the remaining 5 parts or whatever wouldn't be hard to round up in a second day. That sounds like you're making good time, right?

Well, you need to have 5 Ship parts to unlock the Third Area (The Forest Naval)

And you need the Blue Pikmin found in The Forest Naval to get all the ship parts in the Forest of Hope.

So, during this first day where you're already rushed due to building up 2 types of Pikmin for the first time. You need to collect at least 4 parts, or else this easy 2 Day Area will have to a 3 Day Area with alot of time wasted on two of those days.

I won't go into too much detail because routing what parts to grab, while very fun, probably won't be the most entertaining.

What's important is I was able to get the 4 parts in a single day there. Meaning 2 days in, I could already go to the Forest Naval.

Day 3 the hope is to get Blues as quick as possible. I usually like to lure the Breadbug near the Blue Onion because that's the easiest time to kill it for the ship part and then it won't get in the way.

Now the Naval has 9 Ships parts in it. Meaning you probably wanna do one day that's building blues and getting parts near the base, making sure you take care of walls and bridges to the best of your ability. Which is exactly the approach I took. And fortunately this area took the least practice for me to do.

I got a good first trip run pretty fast, which just left.

Day 4 has 5 Parts remaining, which is alot. Especially since two of these were busses while others were kinda long puzzles needed to do. But, I believe it just took me two real attempts before I was able to just do so. Meaning on Day 4, we've completely our first of the 5 areas.

Day 5 and Day 6 you can either go back and finish the Impact Site or finish up the Forest of Hope. The Impact Site is nice because it's just a single part, and as a result you can build up all your Pikmin types, meaning from this point onward you don't need to worry about enemy corpses and growing Pikmin. You'll have enough to finish the run.

And the Forest of Hope's 4 parts are easy to finish up as well now that we have Blue's.

Day 7 is where this gets TOUGH. The Distant Spring is by far the most difficult area in the game. It's really the only bit in this game where I tend to lose Pikmin to any meaningful degree during casual playthroughs. Wollyhops are annoying to deal with, Spotty Bulbears are BRUTAL and there's a ton of them over the map. Swooping Snitchbugs and Burrowing Shearwigs really make it hard to leave Pikmin unattened unless you're confident. And it has 10 Parts for you to get. Going into this I wasn't sure if I'd be able to do it in 2 days and I shot for 3.

At first, I was only able to get 3 parts in a day, and even that took alot of work, mostly working on the ones in the open water area near base. However after realizing how I was almost able to get the remaining 7 on the second trip, I decided to try again, just shooting for 4 parts and one of the puzzles done so all I had to do was carry it back the next day.

And, I got 5 Parts in a day! The 3 in the water behind base and then two of the closer ones. This and I had managed to destory every wall on the map which would make my next day way easier

Day 8 went smooth as a result of Day 7 going so well. There were some parts where Wollywogs have to be gotten through, but both of those are an ease. Then the far side of the map with the puzzle where you have to use Candy pop buds to make Blues Yellows and then Blue's again. Which is unfortunately time consuming above all else and ruined a few of my runs when I was trying to do 7 in a day.

But that's manageable, just leaving a boss fight you have to do with some reds. That for me isn't a problem.

However the only big Pikmin loss this playthrough did occur as the red Pikmin carrying the treasure back woke up a Spotty Bulbear and they all died.

But even with that hickup, the day was finished with time left to flower some reds to make the final day even easier.

Day 9 is anticlimactic. This is just an area (The Final Trial) with the final Boss in it and a single ship part. There's an easy puzzle I optimized my ability to do quick for no reason, then it's a matter of using Bomb Rocks to Stun the boss, followed by attacking with Reds. The day finishes with basically half the time left, it's not a challenge whatsoever, more of a victory lap.

And that's that!!!

Pikmin 1 is one of my favorite games of all time and I've played it so much since I was a kid (this was done on the Switch version, thus why only 3 playthroughs have been recorded. Launch Playthrough, mine earlier this year and then when I decied to do this)

And it felt really nice to optimize myself and go through, and not look at any speedruns or take advantage of any glicthes.

I can't speak too confidently, but I think 9 days is the lowest possible amount without taking advantage of any major glitches. Since Days 3/5 areas need to be completed in 5 days. Just leaving The Forest Naval and Distant Springs where you could theoretically do them in one day. But given the size of each area that sounds near impossible (I'm sure I've already been proven wrong by a TAS)

Point is, I feel good, and it felt nice to do this with one of my favorite games

So it's pretty much confirmed that PNF-404 from Pikmin is Earth in the distant future. Any thoughts on what the native creature enemies are descended from? I hc Bulborbs as some kind of derived gastropod that convergently evolved a pair of vertebrate-like legs (since the Bulborb Larva is legless), and the Pikmin themselves as a composite organism between a highly-specialized social insect and a Cordyceps-like plant that, rather than being parasitic is instead mutualistic.

Most of the creatures aren’t too different from their inspiration so it’s pretty easy to tell what they are. The grubs and beetles are grubs and beetles, the clamclamps are clams, the wollywogs are frogs, the mites are mites, etc.

Others are just completely out there and impossible to truly tell what they are. Like the wraiths, mamuta, honeywisps, and the Longlegs and Gatling groink. The last two honestly feel like leftover biotechnology.

Some we’re actually told what they’re descended from or related to, which is also usually believable. So like the Hermit Crawmads being hermit crabs or the skitterleaf being a water strider.

The “Scarpanid” family I’d hesitantly call beetles.

The Goolix is just a giant amoeba, which isn’t too out there considering there are plenty of giant unicellular organisms IRL (algae, seaweed, slime molds getting ready to reproduce, Xenophyophores, etc).

Snagrets are likely very strange birds. They could be descended from any number of burrowing birds or even passerines, which make up 60% of all birds and owe their success partly to a genetic code that is predisposed towards speciation.

Blowhogs I��ve always been unsure of but the tusked blowhog in 4 indicates that they’re possibly pigs. While the tusked blowhog isn’t a true blowhog it could be a primitive close relative that lies just outside of true blowhogs. I think Porquillion could also be related.

Vehemoth seems like a weird aerial salamander.

The meerslug is probably descended from a fish of some kind. One that burrows.

Dweevils I’m not entirely sure on.

There’s so many pikmin enemies that I’d be here all day covering them so I’m just skipping to the Bulborbs.

I’ve mentioned that I love @just9art’s slugborb theory even if it had to handwave that breadbugs are canonically not too closely related to grubdogs. I also just love the artwork and am so sad that their renditions of the grubdogs are not real animals I can hold. However, Bulborbs and breadbugs are so nondescript that people have purposed that they’re possibly terrestrial mud skippers or anglers (specifically ones like handfish) and they all work. Some people think they’re frogs, and @aphid-kirby covered it in a series of YouTube videos. https://m.youtube.com/@fictionalbiology1921/featured

As for pikmin, I do think a lot of the mobile plants form a family, which includes pikmin. But pikmin themselves are very weird (from here on is spoilers for PIKMIN 4).

Pikmin seem to be composite organisms, but apparently they can also force horizontal gene transfer onto other organisms as seen in the bad end for pikmin 1. This is also a main plot point for the fourth game as the main antagonist is actually Olimar being pikminized. All of this means that pikmin might not even be a species in a traditional sense.

Speaking of spoilers for 4, the final boss is a giant dog like Oatchi and is heavily implied to be a feral version of the ancestor of Oatchi’s kind. Meaning that they might actually be earth canines. However, the various spacemen of the games are also said to have had these canine companions for a long time, which could also mean that Olimar and co aren’t actually aliens, but descendants of humans who took dogs with them to space. While they evolved to be tiny (just barely big enough for their inner ears to still work), they selectively bred their dogs to be like jerboas. Humanity has been away from home for so long they don’t even remember it.

Bread....

Bug

[phoningflamigo]

For those who don’t know; in pikmin 2 it’s revealed that dwarf bulborbs are not the same species as normal bulborbs. Dwarf bulborbs are a kind of breadbug that mimics bulborbs!

Some bulborbs, like the whiptonge, have no mini mimic version because their anatomy is too hard to imitate. Dwarf tailed bulborbs are rare for… other reasons.

Those reasons being that the full sized ones keep accidentally knocking them off of cliffs with their big stupid tails.
