Okay, think, this was the entire reason Pikmin 1 was started. If The Dolphin hadn't have any pieces blown apart, Olimar would just have blasted off again. Their would be no Olimar meeting Pikmin and the series wouldn't even exist. [[User:Pik kid|Pik kid]] 16:48, 27 June 2008 (UTC) | |||

I nominate the page [[Puffy Blowhog]] to be featured. It is a very neat and tidy article, has lots of information, an image, and info on any glitches there might be involving blowhogs. It is also very detailed, and everything about it just seems ''right''. I have also just fixed it up, giving it much better sentence structure, and it now sound even more fluid to read than it did before. On top of that, the [[Burrowing Snagret]] article has been featured for almost a year, and we will need to find a replacement featured article instead. | |||
