==Smokey Progg?== | |||
Hey, just wondering, does anyone think the Smokey Progg is a Mamuta? After reading the Goolix talk, it does seem more Mitite-ish. I also wondered how a Mamuta could lay an egg that size. Someone said it could be actully a cocoon, but, as insects rely heavily on instinct, I don't think the mitites would infect it unless they had been doing it for years, which seems quite unlikly as it seems to harm both species. That brings up something disturbing. If a Mamuta didn't lay it and it's not a cocoon who did? Or, have we maybe never actully seen an adult Mamuta, and those were simply normal larva? After all, insects have not changed for thousands of years, and if the chocolate you find has not decomposed, i doubt that insects thought patterns will have changed that much. Back to Mamuta... | Hey, just wondering, does anyone think the Smokey Progg is a Mamuta? After reading the Goolix talk, it does seem more Mitite-ish.

If those are larva, what does the adult look like? Also, the Smokey Progg could be another species altogether, or the Alpha Male (dominant) version. | If those are larva, what does the adult look like?

::::No, ugh. He's not saying the Progg layed the egg, the egg was already there, the Progg just got into the egg and ate whatever was inside. Like I said though, it doesn't solve the problem of how the Progg got into the egg in the first place without leaving a hole. Then again, supposing the "mother Progg" could have injected a developing Progg or tiny Progg egg inside the large egg, like many species of wasps do with long, needle-like ovipositors (although I don't believe any of them actually target hard-shelled eggs), any trace of a hole could potentially be very small, and would likely be plugged either by the mother or the host egg itself to prevent anything else from getting in. The idea that the egg does not originally belong to the Progg might explain why the egg itself seems to be so much bigger than it needs to be to house the animal. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} | ::::No, ugh.

: all Mamuta wants to do is be happy and plant flowers for Spectralids. 99% is good enough {{User:TheAlbinoPikmin}} | |||
== Buried Pikmin Limit == | |||
The trivia entry that says Mamutas cannot bury all 100 Pikmin has a box asking for a ''Pikmin 2'' player to test whether it applies similarly if there are less than 100 Pikmin on the field. After some testing, I've found that the limit does '''not''' apply - if there are less than 100 Pikmin on the field, the Mamuta will bury every Pikmin. If the player attempts to proceed to the next sublevel, the game will prevent them from doing so with a screen saying "All Pikmin are buried, so you cannot proceed." (I've taken a screenshot, but I just joined so I'm not clear on how to get it uploaded and/or where it should go).
