== Strange Seed Glitch ==

This will probably need further confirmation to see if it is reproducible, but I encountered a strange seed glitch. In Twilight River, I was having Winged Pikmin carry pellets back to the main Onion and was running very low on time. The pink 5 pellet they were carrying was absorbed just as the countdown hit 0. A few of the seeds were spit out during the end of day cutscene, but not all of them. The next morning, during the landing cutscene, it spit out the rest of the seeds directly below the onion and embedded right under the light. I was able to pluck them as normal. {{User:Peach Bulborb/sig}}
:I wish somebody could verify this and add it to the article. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 06:01, 3 July 2015 (EDT)
::I'm going to try to do it a second time, but we still will need independent verification. {{User:Peach Bulborb/sig}}
:::If you can pull it off again, and understand the steps needed to recreate it, then there's no need for another person to verify. It only makes sense for another person to reproduce it if it's some outlandish glitch, specially from a user nobody ever heard of. As long as you can gather easy steps to reproduce, it's fine. People who think the glitch is fake can try it for themselves. If we had more glitches being submitted constantly, we should start worrying about a procedure to weed out the bad ones, but we don't, so... &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 11:07, 4 July 2015 (EDT)

I have once again attempted it on Twilight River, this time with Blue Pikmin and a Blue 10 Pellet. It worked! The sprouts were decidedly not in the usual ring, but a little scattered around under the Onion. Note that despite it being a 10 pellet, I only obtained 7 sprouts, any remaining ones must have been cut off as the day ended. It would appear the glitch is activated on Twilight River by having Pikmin carry an object to the Onion just as the day ends and the countdown hits zero. The Onion should start spitting seeds, which will grow during the end of day cutscene. When you return in the morning, the sprouts will not be in the ground but ejected out a second time and land in all sorts of weird places on the ground. As I have tried four times to get this to work, and only succeeded once, it would appear the timing has to be very precise. To make this easier, you should use something that will produce a large amount of seeds and raise the window of opportunity during which this can happen. {{User:Peach Bulborb/sig}}

:Neat! So does this only work on the Twilight River? I would strongly bet that that's not the case. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 05:10, 9 July 2015 (EDT)

==Confused Rock Pikmin==
At the end of the day, a single Rock Pikmin following Charlie decided not to return to the Master Onion, instead deciding to follow Charlie to the Drake. I don't believe he died, and I suspect the cause was Charlie entering a loading zone under the Go Here! command's effects at the exact moment of sunset. I suspect it would work regardless of leader or Pikmin. [[User:Phineas81707|Phineas81707]] ([[User talk:Phineas81707|talk]]) 00:45, 12 October 2015 (EDT)

:I just checked myself, and that's not a glitch. If a leaf Pikmin drinks nectar, it gets all excited and backflips, because of the huge change in maturity that just happened. If a bud Pikmin drinks nectar, the change isn't as big, so the only thing the Pikmin does is stretch its arms out and shake them, as if saying "ooh, that's good". Red Pikmin and Rock Pikmin do the same animations, and I'd bet all Pikmin types do too. If the Pikmin in the cutscene stood perfectly static and held that pose awkwardly during what would've been the "I'm pumped up!" animation, that would be a glitch. It would mean the game failed to obtain the correct animation and defaulted to using the T-pose. But this isn't the case. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 10:30, 18 December 2015 (EST)

Okay, I'm not sure if this is what happened, but I think maybe Olimar was laying ontop of the Pikmin, If that is what happened, then I guess when I called them to me, the others dropped it on that Pikmin, so it couldn't move, so it became idle, then returned to trying to carry Olimar, but like I said, either way I don't know if that's what exactly happened, If I recall correctly, I think the glitch ended when I got other Pikmin to carry Olimar again like normal.

I occasionally checked Miiverse and searched for posts containing the words "glitch", "bug", etc. in hopes of finding weird glitches.

I've posted a lot of the ones I'm more or less sure are standard Miiverse glitches to the main page. But I've got a few here that need to be looked into before being added: either because they can be reproduced, because I can't tell what's going on and need somebody's help, or because somebody needs to check in-game if it's normal or a glitch. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:54, 5 November 2017 (EST)

I'm not sure if this glitch has been documented anywhere on the wiki (not on this page at least), so just in case I'll post it here and check other pages before moving it to the main article. If someone could help me confirm this glitch is new I'd appreciate it! 

{{glitch | reproducibility = High | consequences = Harmful | versionmin = ? | versionmax = 2.0.0 | youtube = jfOKRV8DKxQ | vcaption = Demonstration of the glitch at 0:28.
|effects = [[Onion|Onions]] will produce fewer Pikmin seeds than intended when retrieving a [[Pellet]] carried by [[Purple Pikmin|Purple]] or [[White Pikmin]], even if said pellet matches the Onion's colour.
|prerequisites = Play in the [[Beastly Caverns]] in [[Mission Mode]] and collect Purple or White Pikmin.
|howto = Order some Purple or White Pikmin to carry a pellet to an Onion matching its colour, without other Pikmin types interfering. Once the pellet has been carried to the Onion, new Pikmin seeds will be created, albeit less than normal.
|explanation = Purple or White Pikmin have no Onion. As such, they carry enemies and pellets back to a random Onion, provided no other Pikmin types interfere. Unlike what happens in ''Pikmin 2'', the digits that normally appear above an object that Pikmin are carrying are purple or white here, which could trick the game into thinking that the pellet's colour does not match the Onion's. The video provided with this explanation shows what should normally happen (blue Onion creating 5 Pikmin seeds from a 5-Pellet), then how the glitch occurs.

12. Carefully investigate if Pikmin paralyzed by electricity are affected by explosions. I think it depends on the version of the game.

== Louie failure to take juice? ==

Seems like the Glitches to Analyze section is more of a personal checklist, and a friend's 3DS just almost got bricked so I am far too anxious to risk stepping on any toes by interjecting, so I'm taking an aside to discuss an alleged game-breaking bug if [[Louie]] is rescued and there is no juice left at the end of the day he is rescued from the [[Scornet Maestro]], in which Louie will fail to land the ship the following day, or any day thereafter. I believe I recall witnessing this in modified games, but I'm sure I remember someone mentioning it happens in vanilla as well. It's just so incredibly unlikely for anybody to happen upon by chance. I plan to test it on Deluxe, but can someone whose Wii U still runs check to see if getting Louie back to the Drake with 0 juice left in the original game softlocks the player's file? --

:I have actually done this in both the Wii U version and the ''Deluxe'' version, and the result is not a softlock at all, because the developers knew that this situation is possible to reach and made a clever system to resolve it. At the end of the day that you rescue Louie, the Koppaites will talk about needing to find more fruits because there's no juice left. On the next day, you can choose to land in any of the 4 areas, and there's a special [[objective]] to guide you into doing that, "Find Fruit!". Only once you have more than 1 juice remaining at the end of the day will Louie steal the juice and land in the Garden of Hope. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 00:33, March 27, 2023 (EDT)
:FWIW the "Glitches to analyze" isn't a personal checklist. Anybody can and should check them out to document them. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:26, April 5, 2023 (EDT)

== Play Story Mode After Completion ==

It's possible to play a Story Mode file in Pikmin 3 Deluxe after beating the game by selecting a day other than "END", opening the Voyage Log, scrolling all the way to the left, and clicking "Start". What category does this belong under?

:It would probably go under the "Main" category. (I'm actually the person who found that glitch and made the video about it, but I never got around to documenting it here. If you want to document it you can, but I still plan on doing it eventually.) &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 18:17, July 8, 2023 (EDT)

== Bomb Rock Duplication ==

Yes, there is in fact a glitch that allows you to duplicate Bomb Rocks, but I don't really see it in the page.

Here's how the glitch works btw: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6dV1TediwE]

(also, if you're wondering, yes, it's still possible, since I myself have performed the glitch recently) [[User:RedPikmin95|RedPikmin95]] ([[User talk:RedPikmin95|talk]]) 18:32, November 20, 2024 (EST)

:This glitch is documented, in the "Infinite dirt mound" section. However, the section doesn't mention bomb rocks; I'll edit the section to mention them. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 20:45, November 20, 2024 (EST)
