Look, you guys, it's a "FISH TANK"! Get it? =D --[http://pikmin.wikia.com/wiki/User:LE_the_Creator -So sayeth LE the Creator.] 16:23, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
 
The first time I thought this thing I was fighting two at a time in Subterranean Complex. I got destroyed but I won the fight and barely had enough Pikmin left to finish off the Man-at-Legs. [[User:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:blue">Portal-</span>]][[User_talk:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:orange">Kombat</span>]]
 
:I lol'd at "fish tank." {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}
 
::Lulz, fish tank... I actually get the meaning of the joke! {{User:Crystal_lucario/Sig}}
 
Nice joke, whats next? fish sniping towers? ;)
 
Dumb fish tank... kill all blues while in cave... no more blues left to get treasure out of water... -_- NIN10dude
 
== Sped up glitch ==
 
that should be called The "Spaz Attack" Glitch. What? it happened to a snagret at night. (P.S, i left pikmin under the bridge that day and i was at the forest area.) {{User:Redpikminflamethrower/Sig}}
 
P.S.S, i think the gatling groinks in Pikmin 3 Should be under water and there should be gatling groink empresses (And larvae){{User:Redpikminflamethrower/Sig}} '''Sorry!'''
 
Gatling Groink Empresses giving birth to Gatling Groink Larvae? NO THANKS :P (runs into bathroom to puke into toilet, opens lid and Ultimate Chimera jumps out of toilet AAAAAAAAAAAAAA game over)  [[User:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:blue">Portal-</span>]][[User_talk:Portal-Kombat|<span style="color:orange">Kombat</span>]]
 
I don't think having a underwater boss fight or a underwater arena would be such a good idea.
Because the way the controls are now I think swimming would bring up some problems. Also I don't think throughing
pikmin in water is even possible. maybe it would just be better too have an empress GG to be amphibious,
with a watery arena. it'sa--[[Special:Contributions/76.67.5.111|76.67.5.111]] 20:55, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 
 
== Death ==
When the Gatling Groink dies, he sort of explodes. Does that kill your Pikmin? {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}
 
:No the explosion doesn't kill or even harm your Pikmin.--[[User:Gamefreak75|Gamefreak75]] 22:14, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 
::Thanks, I never saw them killed, but the exlosion looked dangerous. {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}
 
The explosion is always cool...
I wonder how it comes back to life, maybe because it's biomechanichal it can repare any damage... Or maybe the explosion could be caused by a part of its body  that ruptures when taking too much damage,
this knocks it momentarely unconsious... hmmm... what do you guys think? it'sa-PK king
Thats right, I'm back
 
:Mmmmm, possibly the first one. Because after all it resembles a robot. {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}
 
true,but I think it looks like some sort of frankonfish creation. Or a windup toy with some spare parts. it'sa PK king
 
:Possibly. {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}
 
== New Play Control! differences? ==
 
I was playing [[Sniper Room]] some days ago when I observed an interesting fact: Pikmin which '''are in your squadron do not die'''. Is this also true for the GameCube version, or is it a modification/change? {{User:RandomYoshi/sig}} 10:56, October 31, 2011 (UTC)
 
== Marking ideas. ==
 
Maybe Nintendo could make a band called the Gatling Gronk Brothers?

== Japanese Name ==
 
Current interpretation of "タマコキン" is "Ball Child Goldfish", but I think the interpretation of "タマ(玉, ball)" is wrong.
There are many words which have same "タマ" pronunciation.
* 玉: Ball
* 弾: Bullet, or "エネルギー弾(energy projectile)"
* 珠: Orb
* 球: Sphere, but it usually pronounce as "キュウ", so this is definitely inappropriate.
According to this, I suggest "タマ(弾, bullet)", cause Gatling Groink is the enemy which spreads energy projectiles.

:Agreed. That sounds more likely. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:57, March 10, 2021 (EST)
 
::Could "タマコキン" also be a word play of "きんたま"? If you consider this then the word '''Groin'''k finally has some meaning. I didn't add this information because I wasn't sure of it but if you agree then this could be added to the main page to explain the English name. Perhaps the k in Groink comes from the コ that the translators didn't know where to add. --[[User:Nvortex|Nvortex]] ([[User talk:Nvortex|talk]]) 19:13, March 12, 2021 (EST)
 
:::That can be, but not as obvious as [[Jellyfloat family]] nor even [[Meat Satchel]]. If there's more native Japanese editors, I wanna discuss... -[[User:PortableSunset|PortableSunset]] ([[User talk:PortableSunset|talk]]) 21:42, March 12, 2021 (EST)
 
::::Very interesting, thank you so much for this input. I am absolutely no authority on Japanese but I've added it anyway as it's certainly less of a reach than the oink explanation I came up with. Even if it turns out not to work at least we increase the chance of someone catching it I guess?.--{{User:Prezintenden/sig}} 19:53, March 28, 2021 (EDT)
