Template:Please leave this line alone (sandbox heading) Pikmipedia sounds better than Pikipedia, I think.
I disagree. Pikmipedia is sorta hard to pronounce, its too long, people might think it is Pikminpedia, and pikipedia as a certain photonical ring that pikmipedia dosen't have. -IAMAHIPO_ocolor
I agree. Pikmipedia sounds more stressed then Pikipedia. Pikipedia just sort of flows off the tongue. -Nagikama
Now, I just noticed something. Have you noticed that the Spotty Bulbear and Dwarf Bulbear have different scientific names? Oculus terribilis for Dwarf Bulbear, and Oculus terribilis dotticum for Spotty Bubear. And yet they say that Dwarf and Spotty Bulbears are the same species. I know this idea is not thoroughly looked at or studied, but I propose that Dwarf Bulbears are in fact different species than Spotty Bulbears. They are, as their name implies, dwarf Bulbears. They're small versions of Spotty Bulbears. But, "Why do they follow the Spotty Bulbears" is an excellent question. Spotty Bulbears can smell you across the map in Pikmin 2, right? Well, while the Spotty Bulbear is an expert hunter, Dwarf Bulbears just sniff the ground. So when they see a Spotty Bulbear hunting, they foolow it, because it will lead them to food. You're probably thinking, "Well, why does he let them follow him, 'cuz they're just going to steal his food." You see, they form a symbiotic relationship. You've probably found it hard to kill a Spotty Bulbear with the Dwarf Bulbears following it. They help the Spotty Bulbear defend itself. That concludes my theory.
I think the suffixes of spotty bulbears are a part of a scientific name that denotes what stage the speices is in development. ocolor 00:59, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
Uh, translated the names mean "terrible eye", and dotticum, much like dotticus or just dottus, aren't really latin words. So, really, the scientific names in Pikmin shouldn't be overated.--Prezintenden(babble)
EEEEEEEEeeooops! Thanks peoples. I didn't know they could be classified by age.
Say, if that's the case, then why do the Armored Cannon Beetle Larva and the Armored Cannon Beetle have the same scientific names?
Err, Pikmin 2 has... holes... . Not everything can be explained (a red bulborb (big creatures!) weigh as much as 10 purple Pikmin.) It is best to nt overthink things. I guess it is the same name b/c they are in different games, and there is only 2 stages. The Spotty Bulbear has 3 or 4 stages. ocolor 00:51, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
Care to explain what those stages are?
Also, is there any one here that knows a LOT of friends that play Pikmin 2? If you reach 10000 pokos by just collecting bulborb carcasses in the first cave, without going to the other areas, what happens? I am up to 900 Pokos, but that took about 3 hours. I have done some calculations and it seems that it takes aprox. 24 hours to get 10000 pokos. Anyone up for it? I ask if anyone has friends so that they can divi up the work. Or if someone has a gameshark? ocolor 00:51, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
Apparently SOMEbody didn't like most of my Pikmin ideas! "Red Pikmin have waxy skin"?! "Yellow Pikmin emit electricity out there ears"?! Ring a bell?!
