  • Depending on how this poll is received, polls for the other games could be submitted as well. (With any changes, of course) Burrhead2 (talk) 14:11, April 30, 2022 (EDT)
  • Is this referring to the first game, or to the whole series? If the former, then there's a similar idea above. Maybe they could both be merged? — {EspyoT} 11:07, May 21, 2022 (EDT)
    • First game. That's the issue with having a series and game with the same name. I'm not too sure about the merge, though. The questions are somewhat similar, but I feel they're still somewhat different. Burrhead2 (talk) 19:33, June 18, 2022 (EDT)
      • I've reworded the poll to have "Pikmin 1" instead now that that name is acceptable. That said, the poll is very similar to the time limit one, so it should wait a while before being asked. — Soprano(talk) 00:14, February 1, 2024 (EST)

Polls that need work

What sort of online capability would you most like to see in a Pikmin game?

  • Multiplayer in Story Mode
  • Multiplayer in cooperative side modes
  • Multiplayer in competitive side modes
  • Custom stage sharing

  1. (Nominator:) people definitely want online things, but WHICH online things? I don't have any idea for options yet, but maybe this poll will be interesting. — {EspyoT} 04:15, 16 September 2015 (EDT)

  • Hm, I'm not too sure about these options. Three of them are pretty much the same option. I like the idea of choosing between something like multiplayer and content sharing, but the more I think about it, the more I don't think this will work well. Everyone will want to be able to play real-time multiplayer. Something like custom stage sharing implies custom stage creation, which is an entire can of worms in and of itself. — {EspyoT} 11:51, August 9, 2021 (EDT)
    • Hmm, I see your point. This poll sounds cool but is very difficult to come up with options with. Perhaps it'll have to wait until someone has better ideas for options. — Soprano(talk) 00:00, October 3, 2021 (EDT)

  • It's worth noting that Pikmin 3 has separate medals for 1 player and Co-op mode in Mission Mode, and I'm not sure if there's a graceful way for a poll to account for that. Midnight blue (talk) 18:27, August 28, 2021 (EDT)

What do you feel about glitches in the series?

  • I'll note that I only supported this poll idea after I got interested in glitches in the series, which shows that it's a bit of a weird question to ask to people who haven't really thought about glitches much. — Soprano(talk) 01:28, September 16, 2022 (EDT)

  1. (Nominator:) Since we did Pikmin types, why not do Bulborbs? We dont have any polls around enemies (that I know of), so this can be cool and unique. The Bulborb is also as recognizable as the Pikmin themselves, and are part of the biggest family in the series (grub-dog). This also includes Bulblaxes and Bulbears, but we can get rid of them if there are too many options. I also think Bulborb Larvae are too similar to Dwarf Bulborbs (same with Dwarf Bulbears) even though they're technically grub-dogs. — CrazyCow October 1, 2019

    • Yeah, I like the pet idea. — CrazyCow October 13, 2019
    • I also like it; a "Which Bulborb type would you rather have as a pet?" question is a fun and quirky question that would get people to think. — Soprano(talk) 22:55, December 13, 2021 (EST)
  • Not much opportunity for discussion on this one other than "it look cute :)". Maybe if it was something like "which bulborb is the hardest to combat", and the list was shortened to only the more difficult ones. — Bossclips(talk) 13:14, November 30, 2020 (EST)
  • Maybe we could ask the question of which one is hardest/most annoying to fight, since I think players would have something to say about that. Midnight blue (talk) 18:45, August 28, 2021 (EDT)
    • That might not be very interesting, since the bosses would obviously win. — {EspyoT} 12:04, September 5, 2021 (EDT)
  • We'd need to decide what types of Bulborbs are included for this poll. Just regular-size Bulborbs, or dwarf-size Bulborbs too? What about Bulblaxes? — Soprano(talk) 00:14, February 1, 2024 (EST)
    • I think anything that can be classified as a Bulborb to at least some people should be made an option, to encompass all opinions. This then brings the conundrum of lack of space, but perhaps we could combine similar options into singular entries. Maybe this would be a good list (just a prototype, as it could very likely use some edits):
      • Albino Dwarf/Dwarf/Red/Jumbo Bulborb
      • Hairy Bulborb
      • Dwarf Orange/Orange Bulborb
      • Whiptongue Bulborb
      • Bulborb Larva
      • Dwarf Bulbear/Spotty Bulbear
      • Dwarf Frosty/Frosty Bulborb
      • Empress Bulblax
      • Emperor/Sovereign Bulblax
      • Fiery Dwarf/Fiery Bulblax
      • Snow Bulborb (maybe this can be combined with the first entry due to its lack of almost any unique qualities)
      • Moldy Dwarf Bulborb
Like, this is pretty comprehensive, and is relatively concise (still pretty massive). I'm sure it's flawed, but it's probably a good starting point for what to include in the poll? Deeb1324354657 (talk) 16:48, October 5, 2024 (EDT)

What would the optimal number of areas in a Pikmin game be?

  • 1 big area
  • 2 to 3
  • 4 to 5
  • 6 to 8
  • More than 8

Support

  1. (Nominator:) Another fanon-style poll, asking about the number of areas in the ideal Pikmin game. It could also be phrased as "If you were designing a Pikmin game, how many areas would it have?" It may leave out a lot of nuance (such as area size), and it may have a lot of options (edit: I reduced the number of options), but it could still be a good poll. — Soprano(talk) 04:28, June 21, 2021 (EDT)
  2. It's better now with the condensed options. Sure, why not? — {EspyoT} 11:37, June 27, 2021 (EDT)

  • Now that Pikmin 4 has come out with 6 main areas, is this question still possible to ask? — Soprano(talk) 21:56, August 25, 2023 (EDT)
    • Why wouldn't it be possible to ask? Perhaps it can be rephrased to make it more subjective-sounding; that might work better. If it were to say "How many areas do you prefer in a Pikmin game?" that could offer a nice way for participants to state how dense they prefer areas to be. Deeb1324354657 (talk) 16:58, October 5, 2024 (EDT)

There are a few groups of enemies which are all variants of each other, such as Bulborbs, Spectralids, and Dweevils. What are your thoughts on there being multiple variants of enemies?

  • I think there should be more variants of enemies.
  • I think the existing games have a good amount of enemy variants.
  • I think there should be less variants of enemies.
  • I think enemy variants should be implemented differently.

  • Might be okay for a more "bottom of the barrel" poll. Maybe the first sentence of the question can be removed, though. Or maybe like "What do you think about enemy variants? (e.g. all the Dweevil recolors)" — {EspyoT} 13:06, August 26, 2021 (EDT)
    • I think the context is necessary, perhaps to help people who aren't as familiar with the games. — Soprano(talk) 00:14, February 1, 2024 (EST)
    • I mean, what does the first sentence really add? If anything, it just makes the topic a bit harder to understand, considering its wordiness. I think "What do you think about enemy variants?" with the example in parentheses that Espyo wrote is perfectly fine (perhaps it can say Bulborb variants instead, as Bulborbs appear with variants in more games than Dweevils do, so less-dedicated fans would know more about their variants; the only way someone would not know what this is asking is if they've only played Pikmin, which is unlikely because most newer fans play newer games). It perfectly explains what it's asking, and essentially just converts the first sentence into a more concise example. Deeb1324354657 (talk) 17:28, October 5, 2024 (EDT)
  • This isn't a bad poll, but I think it's a bit awkward or could be rephrased. I'm more supportive of this because I do think it can be an interesting topic; someone over on the Pikmin Fandom who I was good friends with when I was there (and still am friends with) had fairly strong opinions against enemy variants so I think it could be an interesting topic to have a poll on.

  • We currently have a poll nominee asking about control schemes specific to Deluxe, so would this question be redundant? —Midnight blue (talk) 19:16, August 28, 2021 (EDT)
    • I was thinking more in general, because, for Pikmin and Pikmin 2, some people prefer the standard button and stick controls, and some people refer the Wii remote's pointer. I figured this question to be across the whole series, so I guess it is kinda redundant in the area of P3DX, but maybe some people's opinions differ between games? Or maybe this question should be split off to ask whether they prefer the control types for each game. Burrhead2 (talk) 19:33, August 28, 2021 (EDT)
      • I think this question can still work, but it should be rewritten. Instead of saying "Do you prefer button or pointer controls?" (which is ambiguous), it should say "Do you prefer to control the cursor with motion controls or the analog stick?" There should also only be 2 options, because otherwise a lot of people would pick the neutral option. — Soprano(talk) 04:45, August 29, 2021 (EDT)
        • Works for me. Burrhead2 (talk) 15:36, August 29, 2021 (EDT)
        • Agreed with the non-ambiguous approach. — {EspyoT} 12:04, September 5, 2021 (EDT)

  1. (Nominator:) This is more of a fun and silly poll. There are a bunch of enemies in the Pikmin series that are often considered annoying by players, and it could be interesting to have a poll on which one people find the most annoying. The options I picked are enemies commonly noted as particularly annoying. Similar polls could work for other games, though I limited this one to Pikmin 3 to avoid cross-game comparisons. — Soprano(talk) 05:39, June 18, 2022 (EDT)

Which is the best-designed hazard?

  • Fire
  • Water
  • Electricity
  • Poison
  • Ice

Support

  1. (Nominator:) A simple poll to see which of the four basic hazards people like the most. The additional hazards of crushing, stabbing, and explosions could potentially be added to the list of options, though I think it would be better with just 4. — Soprano(talk) 16:46, November 24, 2022 (EST)
  2. As per the reply to my opposition, if this poll is about hazards from a game design perspective, I think this could be quite interesting. But it might need to be renamed to specify this. I also am absolutely not opposed to having more options. I guess I've been nudged over the fence and a bit into "support" territory. -Burrhead2 (talk) 11:24, November 30, 2022 (EST)

  1. Does one have a favorite hazard? If so it would be the least annoying one, cause the least favorite hazard would go right to the insta-kill one (Electricity). --PastelP (talk) 15:03, November 25, 2022 (EST)
  2. This one feels kind of... iffy. I'm not sure how one could really have a favorite hazard - I mean, they're all bad, right? People would just gravitate towards whatever does the least damage and/or is the easiest to avoid. Fire, water, and poison are also more-or-less the same thing. Unless this poll is about people's favorite ways to kill Pikmin. And that's simultaneously fantastic, and something that would probably never happen. I'm open to changing my mind, but for right now I'll stick (rather lightly) to this corner. -Burrhead2 (talk) 20:04, November 29, 2022 (EST)
    • I was originally going to word this as "Which is the best hazard", to make it clear that the question is about game design, but poll ideas in the past that have featured "the best" have often had that replaced with "your favorite" because it makes it clearer that the poll is subjective. But considering these reactions, I think that using "the best" would result in a more useful poll. Do you think it would be better if it was reworded in that way? — Soprano(talk) 21:59, November 29, 2022 (EST)
  3. Which game is this about? Becuse in my opinion, Pikmin 2's electricity is the worst hazard, but 3's electricity is almost too genius, so it's hard to vote. Mama09001 (talk) 02:43, May 27, 2024 (EDT)
    • You've got a great point, it would definitely be necessary to mention which game to put this in. I think 2, 3, or 4 could work, preferably 4 because electricity is at its most balanced. Deeb1324354657 (talk) 22:50, July 31, 2024 (EDT)
      • I agree that this poll would be better if it was about a specific game, but I'm not sure Pikmin 4 would be the best game to choose because it's the game where electricity is the most similar to the other hazards. I think Pikmin 2's main 4 hazards would be good for a poll. — Soprano(talk) 05:25, September 30, 2024 (EDT)

  1. (Nominator:) We've had boss polls in the past for Pikmin 3 and Hey! Pikmin, so we may as well have one for Pikmin 2, which also has clearly-defined bosses.

  • I like the idea, but I think there's too many choices for one poll. Would it be alright to split the poll up? --PastelP (talk) 15:03, November 25, 2022 (EST)
    • I think the number of choices is fine. But if it had to be split, it could be only bosses that were introduced in Pikmin 2, or only bosses that appear in Pikmin 1 and 2. ~ Contributions Cheepy (talk) 
      • Perhaps, but those are pretty arbitrary ways to split it... I don't think there's any way that a split could be done in a non-arbitrary way. — Soprano(talk) 15:31, November 25, 2022 (EST)
        • The poll could be split up into bosses per area (but the Empress Bulblax kinda messes that up a bit), and there could be some sort of mystical fifth poll with the winners of the other four, to find out which is the best... or maybe not. I don't know.
          But I'm calling it right now, if this poll makes it, the winner's gonna be the Waterwraith. -Burrhead2 (talk) 19:51, November 29, 2022 (EST)
          • A tournament-style poll series could be quite an interesting idea. To avoid having it take nearly a year, each poll could be 2 weeks long, with 3 or 4 initial rounds and one final round. But the grouping of bosses into initial rounds would be quite arbitrary and it would affect the outcome significantly. I'm not sure if there's a good way to do this. — Soprano(talk) 21:59, November 29, 2022 (EST)
          • Here's a proposal: there would be 4 polls, each 2 weeks long (or 1 month long if we wanted this to last for 2 poll periods). The first would be between the Empress Bulblax, Burrowing Snagret, Beady Long Legs, and Emperor Bulblax. The second would be between the Giant Breadbug, Pileated Snagret, Man-at-Legs, and Ranging Bloyster. The third would be between the Waterwraith, Segmented Crawbster, Raging Long Legs, and Titan Dweevil. The fourth would be between the winner of each of the previous 3 polls. Would this work? — Soprano(talk) 05:25, September 30, 2024 (EDT)

  1. (Nominator:) This exact question has been asked before, in late 2018. However, I think it's worth asking it again, as Pikmin 3 Deluxe and Pikmin Bloom have been more popular than previous games and so may change the poll results significantly. Ideally this question would be asked before the release of Pikmin 4, though we could also ask it a few months after that game's release. — Soprano(talk) 22:37, December 2, 2022 (EST)

  • The 1+2 ports and Pikmin 4 have now been added. This question shouldn't be asked for at least a year because of all the recent games. — Soprano(talk) 18:18, October 5, 2023 (EDT)

When do you consider Pikmin 2 beaten, rather than completed?

  • When I repay the debt/see the credits
  • When I beat the final boss
  • When I collect all the treasures

Support

  1. (Nominator:) I've wondered what other people's opinions on this question are, so a Pikipedia poll is a great place to ask. Considering that the game's credits play not far into it, probably means that by the strictest definition, the Wistful Wild is post-game content, and some people may see it that way.

  • Would this be too much of a spoiler for the Main Page? — Soprano(talk) 01:27, December 22, 2022 (EST)
    • The most this spoils is the location of the credits. If you know anything about Pikmin 2, you'll know that there's a debt, and if you play long enough, you'll find that you won't be able to do everything before repaying the debt. And most games have a final boss. Burrhead2 (talk) 09:13, December 22, 2022 (EST)
  • This poll might be able to be renamed to something like "when are you satisfied by completing Pikmin 2?" or something. — {EspyoT} 16:17, January 2, 2023 (EST)

What flower did you get in the Pikmin Bloom Flower Personality Quiz?

  • Cherry blossom
  • Rose
  • Plum blossom

  • Sunflower
  • Cosmos
  • Lily

  1. (Nominator:) This would be quite a meta poll, using a set of questions on an external website to inform a question on this website. An article about the Pikmin Bloom Flower Personality Quiz was recently created, and it would be interesting to see the results people get. However, it would considerably increase the effort required to participate in the poll, and I'm not sure how we'd link to the quiz website in Template:Poll. — Soprano(talk) 02:15, January 13, 2023 (EST)

  • Asking about the appearance of the Blowhogs is an interesting idea to make the poll more unique, but I'm not sure if this group of enemies is the best for this type of question. Is there any other feature of the Blowhogs that would work in a poll question? — Soprano(talk) 00:07, January 28, 2023 (EST)
    • which is the ugliest - Aostrele 04:52, January 29, 2023 (EST)
    • Could be about what kind of blowhog (terrestrial or airborne), which attack style (fluid or air), or even color scheme. ~ Contributions Cheepy (talk)

  • Should Hey! Pikmin's Creature Log be included as an option? — Soprano(talk) 23:28, January 17, 2024 (EST)
    • I'd say so since it functions the same, but the question might have to be reworded to account for it. -Gulliblepikmin 00:07, January 18, 2024 (EST)
      • When I was writing the question I worded the Hey! Pikmin option as "Hey! Pikmin (Creature Log)", but that's a bit awkward. — Soprano(talk) 00:14, February 1, 2024 (EST)

  1. (Nominator:) I think it'd be cool to compare these, since they get so little attention. They're also kind of a relatively tame choice, nothing's really obejctively better here. — Yaya 20:42, May 26, 2024 (EST)

  1. A poll about final bosses would be too much of a spoiler for the Main Page, and considering 1 of the final bosses is a space dog, it would very likely get the most votes. — Soprano(talk) 05:25, September 30, 2024 (EDT)
