This sub-page is purely speculative. It builds upon established information from the Piklopedia, but is altered to be slightly more accurate in terms of biology, evolution and taxonomy. It still may not be entirely accurate, as Pikmin entries are very strange and vague to work with, but I am aiming for ''at least'' potential plausibilty.
If there were to be an article on Ambuloradicis (its too small of a subject to warrant its own article really), then it would a whole lot less speculative and more formal.


'''Ambuloradicis'''
A class of plants that developed animalistic traits, such as nervous systems and muscle tissues. How or why a group of plants evolved such amazing traits is unknown, though its suspected to be a result of experimentation from the long lost civilisation that once lived here. Its common ancestor is, unfortunately, a mystery.
The singular noun of Ambuloradicis is ambuloradix.

[[File:Pikmin 4 Main Pikmin.png|300px|thumb|left|Nine known species of Pikmin, including the enigmatic Glow Pikmin]]
The most well-known Ambuloradicis are the Pikmin, a diverse family that have developed a humanoid physique. Its success comes from its advanced nervous system and a larger, more concetrated neurological organs that allow it to perform more complex tasks. They have develoed higher cognitive functions, and work as a colony to help propogate their species. Thanks to the Pikmins curiosity, drive to explore, symbiotic relationships and adaptive speciation, the Pikmin family has reached near cosmopolitan status.

Candytraps are a primitive species of candypop, and are one of the last remaining species that have retained their insectivorous diet. As such, any Pikmin tossed into its interior will be consequently devoured.
It lures its prey with its bright colours and unusually sweet scent. Its coated in an extremely adhesive substance, making any caught unable to escape. Once entrapped, it devours its prey with an acidic substance that quickly dissolves most biological tissues.

Surprisingly, the bulbous head upon the encountered mireclops is actually an entirely separate organism. {{cite quote|Some theorize that the fruit-like growth atop its main body is in itself a parasitic species living off the nutrients it drains from the mireclops's enormous body.|Captain Olimar|his entry on the [[Quaggled Mireclops]]}}
{{clear}}
==Ambulofungi==
The Ambulofungi are another separate clade that have evolved animalistic traits, such muscle fibres and nervous systems. The most well-known group of these fungal-animals are the Sporovids.{{cite quote|A type of Ambulofungus, the current working theory is that the Puffstool evolved from a more common species of fungus that gained animal-like characteristics over time, including the ability to walk.|Captain Olimar|his notes on the [[Puffstool]]}}
Akin to the Ambuloradicis, the Ambulofungi group has an elusive ancestory and origins.

[[File:P4 Camouflaged Startle Spore.jpg|thumb|100px|A Startle Spore camouflaged underground.]]
Whilst similar in appearance to the Chrysanthoids, this is actually due to convergent evolution rather than a related ancestry. As they require similar hosts, they often come into direct competition if their territories overlap.
