Ironic that Olimar's Motive for this challenge was not to endanger the wildlife, but ended up massacring the wildlife to ensure all 50 Pikmin survived.

So a fun fact for anyone interested in trying this for themselves: If you're playing the Japanese version of the game, 50 Pikmin will *not* be enough to finish. For some reason, in the Japanese version, the Secret Safe requires *85* Pikmin to carry instead of only 40.

Yeah, since you need 100 Purples to pick up that one treasure, the bare minimum for Pikmin 2 is 100 Pikmin, unless you just want to pay off the debt and don't care about having all of the treasures.

If you enter the cave and get the 100th Purple from said cave and go back to the surface, if you don’t have at least *1* of each Primary-Color Pikmin saved in the Onions, the Onion will make a Pikmin due to the extinction rule right after you return to the surface. So, you can only complete the game (100%) with a minimum of 103 Pikmin instead of the expected 100.

@@RedLuigi235 Nope, sorry. There are Violet Candypop Buds in Wistful Wilds, but that won’t do you much good. Trust me, I learned about it the hard way... Once you exit a cave, similar to how a day starts, it will check to see if there are any live primary colored Pikmin. If there isn’t for at least one of the colors, the empty Onion will spawn one. There’s no way to bypass that sequence otherwise. I knew that dumbbell was going to be a problem, so I dedicated an entire day prepping for it. That was when reality smacked me in the face...

Wait a minute. Wait a minute!! I think I remembered wrong! If you do the method that allows you to just repay the debt with only 37 Pikmin, then the total amount of Pikmin required for 100% is not 103, but 101! Lemme give you the gist!: - I have the Wii version of the game (there’s a major Pikmin behavior difference between the GC and Wii that dictates how many Pikmin you will get) You will need 35 Red Pikmin to pass the area in the Valley of Repose The two others are the single Yellow and Blue Pikmin I got after doing a few sequence breaks and glitches. Getting those two in that method will render their onions as LOCKED and will not spawn Pikmin by any means *especially* if they are extinct. If you have a yellow or blue carry a pellet or an enemy, it will always carry it to the Red Onion instead: the only Onion currently unlocked. All you can do for a Locked Onion is call Pikmin and that’s it. What I can recall in my last playthrough, only the Red Onion spawned a seed after extinction. I assumed the other onions do the same until I remembered that the Yellow and Blue Onions were glitched up due to how I got my one Yellow and Blue. So, my mistake! It’s not 103 Pikmin necessary for 100%, but 101 is needed after that extinction rule.

You should definitely do this with the other 2 games!

I suppose it’s because pikmin 2 has a more engrossing story, it has PMD style caves where you can’t memorise the layout, leading to extra challenge. There are some neat Easter eggs for people who are observant enough to see it. It also elaborates on the fate of pnf-404 and gives clues that it is earth in-game with the treasures, which isn’t really shown in the other games. Although these are my reasons why I prefer 2 over the other games, and it’s not even all of them. I may not be speaking for you but I am attempting to extend your thought.

Great video! I'm glad KZread reccomended me this. One tip, the Chronos Reactor can actually be collected without the Golden Candypop Bud. If you throw your blue Pikmin on the out of bounds wall, you can walk to the UV Lamp maze, stand on the ramp, and have a Bulbear push Olimar out of bounds using its bite. You can whistle the Pikmin and maneuver over to the ship part. You will be on high enough ground for the ship part to be collected easily.

This was a fantastic video! I love the pikmin series very much. Can't wait to see a vid on Pikmin 2!

Technically Dwarf Bulborbs are different species, not juvenile Bulborbs, so the big boy wouldn't be the little boy's mother. Just a random factoid, not a complaint, btw

Very cool! I love Pikmin... I finally came back to play it a few times in a row recently. I was really into it when it came out and went from collecting 29/30 pieces after 30 days to beating it in 11 days years later. I finally did it in 9 days with multiple attempts for a review, it’s just such a great game for replayability. It’s nice that it doesn’t take totally forever to get through.

This video is the equivalent of reading a walkthrough book of pikmin, with the amateur tips being the same as the tip/note sections. Very well-written

how do only you have 188 subs, this deserves more recognizion

Helpful note: In the Final Trial instead of using reds to go through the fire geysers, get ten blues, and go to the far left of the geysers and when you're near the box just throw them and you won't have to use reds at all.

I'm surprised the crushing glitch didn't get you more often! (Or if it did, it wasn't mentioned, haha.) Nicely done!

Y'know, I could really go for a Pikmin and Pikmin 2 remake, using 3's improvements. As they currently stand, only the original GameCube releases are even remotely playable ("New Play Control" does not mean "good play control", since Wii motion controls are completely dysfunctional), and they do need some UI updates - circle around Onions at sundown, number colour on objects matches Pikmin thrown, etc.

@@Boooo Whenever I booted up my Wii, in order to play a game, the motion controls ALWAYS fucked up. Never. Worked. Once. The pointer would rapidly blink in and out of existence, or move when I'm not moving, and was constantly tilted to either side. Needless to say, playing most games on that ridiculous gimmick-heavy system was almost impossible. Skyward Sword? Barely playable (and has many other fundamental issues). Super Mario Galaxy? Trying to select Galaxies and Stars was an unnecessary chore, and the ball-rolling, ray-surfing and bubble-blowing missions (six in all) can go die. Navigating the main OS menu? Next to impossible. The only times I enjoyed my time on the system were when I was playing Super Paper Mario, Twilight Princess, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl - since they either barely used the pointer or motion, allowed the player to disable the pointer, or didn't use them AT ALL. FUUUUCK THE WII. WORST CONSOLE. Nintendo even designed a much better controller for the system - the Classic Controller - but it was barely used for some inconceivable, inane, psychopathic reason.

If said Classic Controller was a mandatory secondary option, I wouldn't absolutely despise the console's very existence, but it wasn't so I do. The only good games I ever managed to play on it were Super Paper Mario (which rarely used motion), Twilight Princess (which allowed the pointer to be turned off in its Settings), and Super Smash Bros. Brawl (which never used motion at all, on top of having the best singleplayer offering in its series). I've heard that Xenoblade Chronicles was a damn-good game on the Wii, and it definitely doesn't use shitty motion controls...but just grab Definitive Edition these days. Or Xenoblade Chronicles 2, preferably, which doesn't have permanently-missable content.

Would've been fun to incorporate the optional bosses as well, but it's still interesting the way it is.

Wow, this was really professionally done! I have zero interest in Pikmin, and had no idea what some of the terminology was, but I was engaged throughout. I definitely would watch an entire playlist of this type of content.

I have no idea what's going on... But I like it!

I don't know why this was in my reccomended or why I watched it later... I only played pikmin 3 so watching this was very interesting lmfao

I love how you give a little story of why Olimar/Any-Other-Person would do this, This time it’s for the fear of overpopulation.

this has me curious as to how many pikmin could be grown in 30 days if the goal was to grow AS MANY pikmin as possible?

There's a speedrun category similar to this in lots of games, called Min%. Get through the game with as few items as possible. And item count trumps time, so for example, in LoZ TP, if you beat the game in 2 hours with 13 items, but someone else beats it in 3 hours with 12 items, they have the better run

For Pikmin 2 I would say the minimum would be for the heaviest treasure. That being said you have to add 3 to that number because you'll be needing 100 Purples for a single treasure. There might be a little bit of a work around with the Bulbmin.

beat Pikmin 2 or 100% it? for 100%, there's a treasure that requires 100 Purples to carry, so the answer is at least 103.

I tried this run once, but whenever I fought Bulborbs, my Pikmin would die to the "crushing glitch". It was frustrating because Pikmin would die and it's not even my fault. A while later I found a way to abuse Bomb Rocks. Usually, a Yellow Pikmin will take a few steps back and throw the Bomb Rock. If it sees another Yellow Pikmin trying to throw a Bomb Rock, it will come back to you. This means that you can only throw one bomb rock at an enemy before waking it up. However, if you call the Bomb Rock Pikmin immediately, it will drop its bomb rock and come to you. And if you abuse swarming to throw several Bomb Rock Pikmin in quick succession, you can basically kill the enemy with as many bomb rocks as you want, allowing you to kill even Bulbears instantly without the risk of crushing Pikmin.

Pikmin 2 and 3 when? 🤩

Small suggestion. Starting about 9 minutes in, you start having vocal flares of volume that make it slightly hard to listen to. I would suggest using some compression to help even out the volume. Otherwise, great video :)

how in the world did you take out the yellow wollywogs without the crush glitch happening i swarm them and it still claims a few unfortunate pikmin. pain

If your playing the Japanese version the requirement is more as 85 are needed to carry the safe.

For pikmin 2 I’d wager a minimum of 103 pikmin. Specifically because of the need for 100 purples for the doomsday device.
