Pikmin 3 beta elements

I posted a question regarding a video I found in the Pikmin 3 unused Content talk page, with a pikmin eating candypop bud, do you think you can find out if it's real, P.S. I have the name of the video and the publisher on the talk page.Pikmin Theories (talk) 10:22, 22 September 2016 (EDT)

Yes, I saw. I didn't reply with anything because I never got around to investigating that. It will be added when more information is known. — {EspyoT} 09:13, 26 September 2016 (EDT)

Names in other languages

Hello, should the Names in other languages be in its own section down at the bottom of the page or should they be a subsection to Naming? I'm wondering because I've seen both. --Raltseye (talk) 10:19, 26 October 2016 (EDT)

Hi. It should be a sub-section inside the naming section. I'm currently in the middle of cleaning up all naming sections, and I haven't gotten to that part yet. Rest assured, I'll take care of it in the following days. Sorry for the confusion! Also, our policies and guidelines sometimes explain how we should try to organize pages, so you can check there if you're ever curious. — {EspyoT} 10:37, 26 October 2016 (EDT)
Okay thank you for starightening that out for me. --Raltseye (talk) 11:27, 31 October 2016 (EDT)

Piklopedia Deaths

Sorry for the confusion. I actually posted another message on Talk:Piklopedia earlier. For the Hermit Crawmad, the glitch I was referring to was the glitch that kills a small Hermit Crawmad when you walk into it while it is petrified. My thoughts when testing this were: "If the glitch works for leaders and Pikmin, then it should probably work for Pikpik Carrots too, since they do count as Pikmin. There isn't any reason for the glitch not to work in the Piklopedia." Mariotime315 Let's-a go!   16:42, 7 November 2016 (EST)

Duplicates?

Are there any differences detween these two that I don't see? Otherwise they're duplicates and one of them should be deleted.

The first one was created on purpose to show off the Koppaite text that appears if you have the Tropical Wilds. The second one just seems like a generic "full map" screenshot. I guess the second one can be deleted. — {EspyoT} 18:40, 12 November 2016 (EST)
Okay, good. ~ Raltseye (talk) 18:54, 12 November 2016 (EST) ~

Problem with the notes

Hi Espyo. I found a difference in the notes of the Orange Bulborb between the GC and Wii (Europe only) versions of the game. As such, I made this. I thought it'd work like the notes for the treasures, so I tried putting Notes|olimar=y|olimarwiieu=y|louie=y, but it didn't work. I guess I shouldn't have created this page, but I'm a bit lost as to how I can include those notes in the article. How can I include them while keeping the GC notes? Thanks!

I'll come up with a richer system for the notes later today. Hopefully that'll be enough. You can leave the page as it is, and it'll work when I set this up. — {EspyoT} 11:44, 29 December 2016 (EST)
Okay. Thanks. Marty (talk) 11:47, 29 December 2016 (EST)

a couple of things

First off I was wondering if any info on that "mimic bud" I talked about awhile ago was uncovered, according to the video description it's internal name is "NamaPongashi" if that helps any, and also out of curiousity, your name wouldn't happen to be based on a certain pink ninja chamelian would it?Pikmin Theories (talk) 21:04, 8 February 2017 (EST)

I haven't taken a look yet. BielR3 did do some research, of course, but his info isn't enough to reach any meaningful conclusions... I'll try to find the time to take a peek soon. Although if its name is "nama", that translates to "raw", or "unprocessed", so I think it makes more sense to assume that this plant is just a regular Candypop Bud before its parameters are set. So it's not an object in and of itself, it's just a "default" state for the Bud. And probably! I got my nickname when I was into Sonic, so that very likely influenced it, but I can't remember for sure. — {EspyoT} 03:59, 9 February 2017 (EST)

I see, anyway on a nonrelated related Pikmin topic. Have you ever read the fanfiction by Sarsars "My adventure with Olimar"? I just got done reading it, it's like the first Pikmin game, but several things have changed, mainly new monsters, and bosses appearance and attack pattern are different.Pikmin Theories (talk) 09:33, 9 February 2017 (EST)

I haven't. I don't usually read fanfics. — {EspyoT} 10:01, 9 February 2017 (EST)

I know it's been awhile, but I just had a thought, if this "Mimic bud" is just a default bud, then why would it kill the Pikmin? Unless I'm missing something, wouldn't it just revert them to seeds rather then killing them? Like say, throwing reds into a Crimson Candypop bud, for example..... Pikmin Theories (talk) 13:17, 25 May 2017 (EDT)

Maybe when the Pikmin goes in, the game first kills the original Pikmin that got inserted, and then checks the Candypop's data to see what new Pikmin to spit out. If it has this data, it spits out a brand new Pikmin of the right type. If it doesn't have the data, it just doesn't do anything. — {EspyoT} 13:56, 25 May 2017 (EDT)

Template:Foreignname

Hello! Just wanted to ask if I could add Polish to this template since Captain Olimar has been called Kapitan Olimar in a facebook post? Also I want to ask if its okay if I rearrange the order if the names in alphabetical order. --Raltseye (talk) 14:56, 5 June 2017 (EDT)

Hey! This is the official Nintendo of Poland page, is it? I think that's fair. Feel free to edit it, but I think changing it to alphabetical order might not be a good idea. Having it ordered from the most "canon", most English language, to the least canon or popular one might make more sense, for reader convenience, for instance. This'll have to be a decision that needs to be discussed later, I'd say. — {EspyoT} 19:14, 5 June 2017 (EDT)
Fair enough! Where in the list should Polish be then? --Raltseye (talk) 19:19, 5 June 2017 (EDT)
I think at the end would make sense. At least for now. — {EspyoT} 14:02, 6 June 2017 (EDT)
I put it after Russian but before Arabic. --Raltseye (talk) 14:13, 6 June 2017 (EDT)
Sounds good! — {EspyoT} 15:07, 6 June 2017 (EDT)

(reset indent)Hello! I was wondering if I can rearrange the languages in the following order:
Dutch
French
German
Italian
Spanish
Polish
Portuguese
Russian
This is an order that has been implemented on Inkipedia and ARMS Institute and follows the order; the first five is be the languages that the games are in and then the rest, all in alphabetical order. --Raltseye (talk) 08:41, 23 June 2017 (EDT)

I talked to the other admins, and we all agree that order will work well. Except, of course, Japanese should be the very first one. Feel free to change it, then! — {EspyoT} 09:04, 24 June 2017 (EDT)
But of course. It's done now. Thanks! --Raltseye (talk) 13:17, 24 June 2017 (EDT)
