Language order[edit]
I've moved the languages in the following order; Dut, Fre, Ger, Ita, Spa: languages the games have been translated into; Chi, Kor, Por, Rus: the languages the games have not been translated into but have an official translation of the Smash Bros. series; every other language.

Portuguese language flag[edit]
Hey, so I noticed this issue where, due to Pikmin 4's Portuguese translation being into Brazilian Portuguese, there were only two options for adding the name to the foreign names section, neither of which was ideal:
- Por: In my opinion, this makes the most sense in cases where there is only one name, as specifying the region would be unnecessary. However, this uses the Portuguese flag, which can confuse users.
- PorB: This uses the Brazilian flag, but is often unnecessarily specific.
As such I have changed the former to use the Brazilian flag. 2 B (talk) 09:41, August 20, 2023 (EDT)
About the Scientific/Japanese/whatever name in other languages[edit]
