  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5GhStB5G10&amp;t=850">14:10</a> There are two messages that the president sends you that discuss this, but they only appear on days 10 and 11 if you haven&apos;t got 3000 pokos yet, which could explain why you couldn&apos;t find them. Anyways the messages are: <br><br>&quot;I wonder where we&apos;d be now if I hadn&apos;t been so stingy and purchased space insurance... But the route Louie took was always a safe shipping lane...&quot;<br>and<br>&quot;You know, Olimar, I&apos;ve been in this business for over 50 years, and I&apos;ve never heard of space bunnies in that shipping lane. I have some doubts about Louie&apos;s accident...&quot;<br><br>(All of the above is based on the Pikmin wiki btw)

  I LOVE THE WAY YOU SPOKE ABOUT LOUIE!! and the data you&apos;ve collected is so awesome! As an AuDHD person who has Pikmin as my special interest, it&apos;s always just so sad for me to see people call Louie a &quot;demon&quot;, a &quot;monster&quot; and stuff like that. I really connect with Louie, and understand his actions on a rather deep level, because he is the perfect representation of ME! I know that if I was a fictional character, I would act in the same manner that Louie does, and people would despise me for it.

  I&apos;m surprised you never mentioned how the purples actually DO have elemental immunities, albeit only to the non-lethal wind and panic (or fear) effects<br><br><br>Additionally, greater spotted jellyfloats have one significant difference from the lessers, they can inhale captains, though it instantly grounds them

  Great video. Here&apos;s a few gameplay tips:<br><br>1. If you only make 19 purple Pikmin in the Emergence Cave near the beginning instead of 20, the purple candypop buds will spawn one more time, so you can go to the Awakening Wood with 29 purple Pikmin instead of 20.<br><br>2. While the 100 purple Pikmin are collecting the Doomsday Apparatus, you can leave one Captain at the base and use the other one to take out the Decorated Cannon Beetle using its own boulders. You can also use the time to get the Gatling Groink to take out the other enemies and even the poison geysers at the gate.<br><br>2. The easiest way to take out the Segmented Crawbster is to take your non purple Pikmin to where it will land, spicy spray them before it does, take them behind it after it lands, dismiss them, and run in front of it to get it to go forward. If done properly, it will kill it deathless (or close to it) in one cycle, no throws required. <br><br>3. On Dream Den sublevel 4, it&apos;s not necessary to kill any enemies. If you take 15 flowered white Pikmin to the treasure and let them carry it back off camera, they&apos;ll always succeed in &quot;dodging&quot; the boulders and electricity. <br><br>4. The easiest way to beat the Dream Den is to do it in two trips. For the first, take a variety of Pikmin to deal with the hazards and collect all of the treasures before the final floor. At the final floor, immediately exit using the geyser and come back with 95 yellow Pikmin and 5 white Pikmin. Then the only thing to do is go down to the final sublevel. The white Pikmin can deal with any poison and with unclogging the sublevel exit. At the final sublevel, take the 5 white Pikmin to the geyser with one Captain and use the other with the army of yellow Pikmin to take out the final boss.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5GhStB5G10&amp;t=10363">2:52:43</a> my favorite boss, its funny that you say not to stand under it cause thats what i do. its insanely easy to just walk with it as it stomps around, and i spam purples under it while it rages constantly and just murk it while it tries to do anything and fails

  Dude the arboreal frippery is obviously supposed to be a reference to drugs, even in the original japanese release olimar describes it as a potent sleep inducer
