Editing Talk:Glitches in Pikmin 3

For the Early scornet maestro, early quaggled mireclops and formidable oak backwards, I can't access the youtube videos. It says video doesn't exist ~Ford4385
:Fixed now. The person who added the video URLs didn't set them up to work with the glitch template, so it was linking to the videos wrong. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 18:32, 18 February 2015 (EST)

I'm not sure if this would be a glitch or a display error, but I found a video with purple and brown pellet posies (or posys) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMR2prU_v_I (i probably did that wrong) ~Ford4385
:Its on the Easter Egg page, to my knowledge. [[File:AeroBlaze777sig.png|150px|link=User:AeroBlaze777]] <sup> [[User talk:AeroBlaze777|Talk]]  </sup> 20:33, 18 February 2015 (EST)
::Just looked, it is on there. I wasn't sure. ~Ford4385
:::I've been in the process of searching the game files. If I can find official evidence that these colors were intended then we'll know whether or not it's a glitch! :D [[User:GreenPikmin|GreenPikmin]] ([[User talk:GreenPikmin|talk]]) 22:06, 18 February 2015 (EST)

== 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)

I will try to test it on other maps at a later date. {{User:Peach Bulborb/sig}}

==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)
:Neat. It'd be nice to reproduce this. I can't imagine it being that hard to do. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 04:04, 12 October 2015 (EDT)
::I managed to get the glitch to be reproduced. Somehow, however, it got combined with the infamous "Pikmin not teleporting to base at day's end" glitch, so this Winged Pikmin was the only one to make it back in time to be in the picture: I had intended for all five types to rush after Charlie. https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKFKdSdy9A [[User:Phineas81707|Phineas81707]] ([[User talk:Phineas81707|talk]]) 05:30, 12 October 2015 (EDT)

==Unknown death==
I had a Fiery Blowhog throw two Red Pikmin into a wall, and they died. I have no idea how it happened, or even what happened... Just for investigation. [[User:Phineas81707|Phineas81707]] ([[User talk:Phineas81707|talk]]) 03:59, 7 November 2015 (EST)
:Hm, in what place in the game? &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 10:00, 7 November 2015 (EST)
::Garden of Hope. The two Blowhogs near the river with the blue bridge that leads to the [[Armoured Mawdad]]. I believe it was near the five pellet.[[User:Phineas81707|Phineas81707]] ([[User talk:Phineas81707|talk]]) 18:54, 7 November 2015 (EST)
::If you didn't see any death animation, I think it might've been a collision error and the pikmin phased through the wall and died, since any out-of bounds area is technically an abyss.
