Editing Forum:If pikmin were real

I think it's an interesting question. I think Pikmin for the most part would be seen as pests, but they're pretty interesting in their own right, and would probably draw some interest from botanists and gardeners as well as antfamists...or whatever. I can definitely imagine people growing small clusters of Pikmin in pots, or utilizing them in the garden to remove bugs which are particularly damaging to crops, so long as they can be kept out of the house, kind of like wasps, only prettier and stingless. As for Bulborbs, it's kind of hard to say. They seem more like eating machines than an animal which can be domesticated, but then again, they really only eat tiny things, which doesn't make them very different from animals like frogs and anteaters. They're also nocturnal though, but I suppose they could be bread/trained to be more active during the day, and there are also a few species which are naturally diurnal. As pets I don't think they'd be as mainstream as cats and dogs, probably about as common as snakes and lizards. Then again, there's a good chance that Bulborbs would be the sort of animal that would just bite you if you tried to pet it, so I'm not really that sure how suitable they would be as pets. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

and think if a 2in dwarf bulborb is 4 seeds how many seeds would there be if pikmin were taking cattel--[[User:snowy bulborb|<b><span style="color:green">Snowy bulborb</span></b>]] 15:15, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

That is a pretty cool idea!Aren't [[Empress Bulblax]]es supposed to be like a Termite queen?So imagine having one of those hiding in your wall just like a real termite queen, constantly giving birth to [[Bulborb Larva]]e.And little kids would want pikmin to live with them, where they could steel stuff.A [[Titan Dweevil]] could ignite your house.Imagine Walking to the bathroom or kitchen at night and a [[Raging Long Legs]] drops down right in front of u and scares the heck out of u?Or what if you encounter a [[Man-at-Legs]] ?

Well, according to the quantom therom, there are an infinite number of universes, so it is not only possible, but certain, that there are world where Pikmin live.

::It's not that everything everyone imagines gets its own world, it's that that anything which anyone can potentially imagine has, does, and will exist in an infinite number of alternate universes. That's multiverse theory, which ties into string theory and such. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

::::I assume you know this because you're an expert on quantum mechanics. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

::::::I hope you're not trying to use logic to disprove something which has actual scientific backing. That works great against faith-based ideas, but not here. You ''do'' know the basic idea behind multiverse, right? Also, global warming? {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

::::::::Whatever what you said meant, the idea behind multiple universes is that there exists an infinite number, so every possibility that could possibly exist does - every single possible state of existence that there could be.

:::::::::Note to Crystal: global warming is not a myth. Its impact on our lives is debatable, but it has happened many times in the past, and, as the average annual temperature around the globe rises each year, it is happening now. Also, faith-based meaning religious arguments which cite scripture rather than, you know, other stuff. Anyway Green, I wouldn't go as far as to say that our CO2 emissions alone are going to boil the planet in a matter of years, but I believe that what many people are arguing is that we've set into motion a sort of snowball effect which gets exponentially greater as certain changes, like melting ice caps, make way for even more heat absorption/retention. There's no question that it can and probably would eventually have happened without our help, but looking at temperature increases within the last hundred years, it seems likely that we contributed to it. You've probably heard that before though, and since I know so very little on the subject, it's not something I particularly want to try and debate. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

:::::::::I didn't say you were religious, I said that using logic alone only works where evidence is absent. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

Well technically, I would have to go with the pikmin being somewhere in this universe...or, any of the other universes. but I still think that pikmin, if they ran out of resources, wouldn't they go after us? its always been my dream to see a world of peace, serenity, and well Pikmin. but there was always one thing that blocked the dream....Olimar.

i have to agre with cl for once

::Nobody said it was likely for any given universe to harbor creatures such as Pikmin, but what you have to understand is that that the behavior of tiny subatomic particles isn't governed the simple rhyme and reason we see in larger scales. You can never say for sure that particle A will move to point B, you can only assign a probability the possibility that it will, which basically means that anything conceivable, even stuff which you wouldn't think possible, ''is'' possible, and ''does'' happen in some far-off parallel reality. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

::::Indeed.... {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

:::::::::It's not really an "opposite" universe, just one in which you behave differently. Of course it's not really you.... {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

uhh...well what about the rumors that follow that the Pikmin world is actually our world inn the past? [[User:PikminTy|PikminTy]] 08:40, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

:"Alternate Universe" doesn't mean everything is opposite, not even does it have to be changed; as far as I'm concerned at least. Not ''everything'' has to different, just certain aspects.--{{User:Prezintenden/sig}}

::There don't necessarily even need to be any differences, and even those differences can be as small as a tiny twitch of an atom. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}

they do exist in another univese. the digital one that all gemes exist in.{{user:rocky0718/sig2}}

Technically, not all the things are present day....(e.g.) The ROB Parts, Game & Watch...But so far, you are right. But use your imagination Lucario, you'll be amazed with what you find. [[User:PikminTy|PikminTy]] 09:47, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
