The '''enemy reel''' is a video sequence that plays at the end of ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' after the player successfully completes the game with all 30 [[ship part]]s. It shows brief clips of each enemy in the game and then pauses to give its name and some details. In this way it is similar to the [[Piklopedia]] that appears in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. | |||
The '''enemy reel''' is a video sequence that plays at the end of ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' | |||
In | In ''[[New Play Control! Pikmin]]'', the video is exactly the same, but takes up less of the screen, and has a flowered animated background. One can tell the video has not been updated given that, amongst other things, the [[HUD#Cursor|cursor]] on the gameplay footage remains the same as the GameCube variant, and the names of the [[Wollywog]], [[Yellow Wollywog]] and [[Wolpole]] have not been updated to Wollyhop, Yellow Wollyhop and Wolpole in the European [[Region|version]]. Wollywogs are named Wollyhops in the [[Olimar's voyage log|voyage log]], but one can only assume that the rename was intended for the other two creatures as well, judging from the naming pattern and from the names given by ''[[New Play Control! Pikmin 2]]''. | ||

This list shows the enemies in the same order as they appear in the reel, i.e., with the Swooping Snitchbug out of place. | |||

Some object placements and level geometry is different between the reel and the final game. This, in addition to a minor ordering oversight, leads to the conclusion that the reel was created somewhat [[Prototype information|early during development]]. The following has been noted to be [[Mistakes in the Pikmin series|incorrect]] in the enemy reel: | |||
*All enemies appear in alphabetical order, with the exception of the [[Swooping Snitchbug]], which appears after the [[Fiery Blowhog]]. This points out the fact that the prototype name of the creature was likely "Flying Snitchbug". | |||
*The Goolix (as well as a [[Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud]]) can be seen on [[The Forest Navel]], despite never being encountered in this area in the final game. | |||
*On the Iridescent Flint Beetle clip, one can spot the [[Extraordinary Bolt]], albeit on [[The Distant Spring]], and with a green top. | |||
*A [[Red Bulborb]] can be seen in place of a [[Spotty Bulbear]] on The Distant Spring, in the [[Candypop Bud]], [[Dwarf Bulborb]] and [[Yellow Wollywog]] clips. | |||
*In the Water Dumple clip, the [[Positron Generator]] can be seen resting on a [[Pearly Clamclamp]], and on the Wogpole clip, it is seen on water, despite the area being The Distant Spring in both cases. | |||
*The path that leads to the southern island in The Distant Spring has raised edges on the parts where the bridge should start and end; the bridge is also absent. | |||
*The rocky ledge on The Impact Site only has one Pellet Posy, yet on the plant's clip, a Posy and a Red 1-Pellet can be seen on the same ledge. | |||
*As noted above, in the European [[Region|version]] of ''[[New Play Control! Pikmin 2]]'', the names of the [[Wollywog]], [[Yellow Wollywog]] and [[Wogpole]] have not been changed to "Wollyhop", "Yellow Wollyhop" and "Wolpole", respectively. | |||
The following partial discrepancies can also be noted: | The following partial discrepancies can also be noted: | ||
*The | *The Mamuta and an Iridescent Flint Beetle appear in [[The Distant Spring]]. This is only possible in the final game in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]], but it's unlikely that the footage for these clips was taken in Challenge Mode. That mode must have been added later into the game than the time in which the clips were recorded, and it would make more sense to show clips of enemies as they were encountered during the actual adventure, and not the non-[[canon]] Challenge Mode. | ||
*It seems that 3 Pikmin are carrying a 1-[[Pellet]] in the Breadbug clip, provided that some of the Pikmin aren't actually idling near the Onion's beam. In the release version of the game, only 2 Pikmin may carry a 1-Pellet at a time. It's possible that at an earlier point in the game's development, it was possible to have 3 Pikmin carry one, or alternately, a [[Glitches in Pikmin#3 Pikmin carrying a 1 pellet|glitch]] manifested itself during recording. This oddity can also be seen in the instruction manual. | |||
