Editing Talk:Maturity

In Pikmin, they revert to leaf when in the ground, in 3 they will usually revert to Flowers (?), idk for Pikmin 2. [[User:Pikifan4|Pikifan4]] ([[User talk:Pikifan4|talk]]) 08:44, 5 February 2016 (EST)
:In the first two games, they revert to a leaf. In Pikmin 3, they just stay as a flower forever. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:44, 5 February 2016 (EST)
In pikmin 1 and 2 it takes 2 minutes to mature one stage and then another two minutes to mature to its last stage of maturity taking 4 minutes to grow from leaf to flower in total

== Hey! Pikmin ==

In Hey! Pikmin, they sprout into buds after performing an action such as attacking those unnamed yellow bird enemies. --[[User:Raltseye|Raltseye]] ([[User talk:Raltseye|talk]]) 06:50, 25 June 2017 (EDT)
:I seriously can't tell what the criteria for maturation is. For instance, all the Pikmin with you go from leaf to bud when you get the Rock Pikmin in 3-A, no combat involved. Maybe it depends on the number of Pikmin you have with you? &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 08:53, 25 June 2017 (EDT)
::Yeah I noticed its seemingly randomness as well after writing that comment. :/ --[[User:Raltseye|Raltseye]] ([[User talk:Raltseye|talk]]) 09:46, 25 June 2017 (EDT)

== Sprout Chance ==

I've been looking through related pages, such as [[Randomness]] and [[Day]], but I can't for the life of me find anywhere what the specific chances of Flower/Blossom Pikmin leaving behind sprout(s) after a "battle where many Pikmin are lost" actually are. How does the game determine whether a battle was fierce enough to leave sprouts behind? What's the Pikmin limit required before it starts generating? Can the player ever get a 100% return of Pikmin lost to new Pikmin sprouts? --

:There was recently an investigation into this in the Pikmin speedrunning community, and the answer is simple: any flowered Pikmin who dies in a certain way has a 20% chance of leaving behind a sprout. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 21:02, March 4, 2023 (EST)

::What is that "certain way"? Is it specifically and/or exclusively boss enemies, or can hazards provoke it? Thank you for the percentage chance, though. --

:::I'm not sure if this was ever fully researched. I'll bring up the topic again for more investigation. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 17:02, March 5, 2023 (EST)
