I'm not sure if it happens on the original hardware or if it should be mentioned anywhere in the article at all, but Water Dumples in ''Pikmin 2'' seem to scooch forward every few seconds if a leader or their Pikmin are close to it but not close enough to cause it to give chase. I've seen it happen multiple times, but I want to make sure if anyone else has seen this behavior. My Wii is currently hibernating, as I call it. Otherwise, I'd check to see if this happens on my copy of the game. It also might be worth checking if Water Dumples do this on the ''New Play Control!'' version of the game as well. {{User:Cheepy/sig}} | |||
:I just tried both on the GameCube and the Wii games, and I couldn't get them to move at all, even after a good 30 seconds.

If VoR ones are paler, it's likely due to the lighting. I will check, but I have a feeling all things appear paler there.GP 16:52, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
- Well, I don't notice any different between PP/VoR ones. I'd have to take screenshots to be sure, but they'd have to be at the same time of day and I can't be bothered as it's just not important and likely what I said above.GP 19:19, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
I was just minding my own buisness when these things started fallowing me. I mean come on I didn't no they could move. Nin10dude

1 pikmin kill[edit]
Can someone double check this for me? In Pikmin 1, I threw a single blue pikmin to the side of one and it jumped onto it's side. The dumpling was spinning in circles trying to get the pikmin, then jumped up and knocked it off. The pikmin had enough time to get back up and jump on it's side again to repeat the process. The pikmin never needed my help and eventually defeated it. The Exterminator 14:18, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
- Mmmmmm, you sure it isn't random? Not sure I can check it right now. I'm still busy with Metroid Prime Trilogy :P
Snakeboss14
- LOL, you mean the Alpha Kretin thing made up of those blue moelcules. For me, it was actually the easiest boss. I hated those damn Calorites though. The boss is simple if you know its structure, because the red will turn to green and green to red. The hardest boss I have to say is going to be Junker, that dude was a bastard.--FREAK ~Game

sorry to crash the tattoo-wearing-student-loving-teacher thing, but what about my question? should we put it up, or is it just too random? The Exterminator
i'm working on pikmin two right now, so i'll try it when i meet one. The Exterminator

You're right miles, but it can't happen to just ANY enemy. Blowhogs shake 'n' bake, bulborbs are just to big, shearwigs eat then die, wollywogs simply squash, and dweevils use their explosions. You can try other enemies, but I doubt it'll work. Plus I never said it was a glitch, just a random thing. The Exterminator
Those Are Whiskers Right?[edit]
In this concept art, the Water Dumple is portrayed with whisker-like objects growing above its lips. Those are whiskers right? I think they are because in the game's coding it's named catfish.

- Yeah, they do have whiskers, because as you said, it's coding is catfish. You can also slightly see them in Pikmin 2, but I'm not usre about Pikmin 1. BTW, nice find.--FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT!

The images[edit]
Are the whisker things actually (more) visible in Pikmin 1? I know the artwork was associated with NPC! Pikmin when released, but I've heard no indication there are actual differences between Water Dumples in the two games. I see them both as images for the series, not the individual games.GP
- That's how you're supposed to view them; the images of water dumples all belong on the water dumple article, and are otherwise unused. Using them twice works, but using it once for a different page doesn't make any sense. Blue Ninjakoopa 22:45, February 7, 2010 (UTC)
