Hello. If you are watching this, then you're probably lost. The articles about the games are most likely located in your local browser "Back" button. XP

But seriously, there's almost nothing to talk about me, per se. So let's see...

About me

I own a Nintendo GameCube, as well as the first Pikmin game. After getting Super Smash Bros. Melee, Pikmin 2 is probably (or not) the next game to be bought. I constantly play the main story mode from the start, always improving my speed.

I am also known as SRB2Espyo. I'm 18 and from Portugal, so if you see some misspelling by me in an article, don't get too "mad".

Stuff

Let's see... on the first Pikmin game, In saw/noticed...

• Around 6 Pikmin started flying when I knocked down the Pellet Posies on The Forest of Hope (where you must travel to reach the Nova Blaster)
• Once, I heard, in the Nintendo logo screen, a Pikmin saying "Wooooo!" instead of the classic "Pikmin!" pikminish sound. (Submitted it on the GameFAQs forums)
  • Right now (Dec 7th) I heard a Pikmin sighing (like when they find out there's no more place to hold the spoil).

Other info

I also created The Impact Site's Challenge Mode's map.

Possible improvements to the Wikia

If I had enough resources, I could do this myself, without much hustle, but in the mean time, these are stuff that other people could do.

Comments about the main info chart's picture's in articles

• Armored Cannon Beetle: the image shouldn't be a beta one, nor have the GUI showing.
• Goolix: It shouldn't be an enemy reel screenshot.
• Pearly Clamclamp: Needs a better screenshot. Close-up, no GUI.
• Smoky Progg: It shouldn't be an enemy reel screenshot.

Olimar's Voyage Log entries

I think that there is a grand total of 64 (a possible reference to the Nintendo 64) entries on Olimar's Voyage Log. And apparently, the following are missing:

• Puffstool (After defeating it, it doesn't return...)
• Beady Long Legs (Same as Puffstool)
• Burrowing Snagret (I tried several times, but I never got any info. Perhaps, if I try attacking the one which is actually holding the piece... On the Emperor Bulblax, Olimar pointed out that he hid the piece.)
• Armored Cannon Beetle
• Wollywog
• Candypop Bud (I tried previously, but I'll try again)
• Goolix
• Breadbug (Same as Puffstool)

A big thanks to Portal-Kombat for pointing them out!

  Final Trial

How did I do this? Simple. Yet hard. Every time I enter an area using Dolphin (an emulator), an option is set to dump all textures. Normally, the textures would be the sides of the tree trunks, the top, the ground texture, etc., all individually. But for some very odd reason, amongst the textures that are dumped, 5 or 6 are created too, that contain an overview of the area (each image has a piece). I just decided to organize them and save them in a single image.

To fill in the missing parts, I used a pattern that repeats itself, which is also dumped.

The images aren't perfect, so I'll try to explain what happened with each one.

• Impact Site: I couldn't find any textures for the beach part. The bottom right trunk is also missing 3/4.
• Forest of Hope: Not made yet.
• Forest Navel: Not made yet.
• Distant Spring: Not made yet.
• Final Trial: Not made yet.
