Welcome! If I'm not wrong, you already created your account here... Wait... Yeah, you came here in 4 september, 2023, at the 12:08. Also, you was seeing this wiki so many years ago? That's amazing! Well, 2009 was like one year after this wiki was made I think. Anyways, if you don't know how to edit (...or you do...?), I recommend you to see the [[PikminFanon:Policies and guidelines|policies and guidelines]]. But if you have questions about this wiki, ask [[User:Cheepy-Cheepy|King Boo]], which is the bureocrat (I hope I wrote it right) of this wiki. Finally, sign your messages with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>, or you can make your own sig user subpage like "User:A Friendly Amprat/sig", cause apparently, here user pages apparently act as templates. Happy editing! {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}

But yeah, I really thought it would be me too based I edit pages a lot to clean them up into their format. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}


:Hi there! Yeah, I made my account last year, though today was the first day I actually started making pages. Indeed, I started my Pikmin Fanon adventure all the way back in 2009. It's incredible how time flies... And I'm so happy to see this wiki still thriving all these years later. It's kinda surreal after all this time to actually be contributing to the wiki instead of just reading every page I can get my paws on. I'm still figuring out how the formatting on this wiki works, and I'll make sure to ask if I have any questions. I'll probably make a signature soon, because that sounds important.

==I'm back (Part 22)==
 
Hey A Friendly Zapibara! I'm here back again! {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::That's fine, peoples take the source from other stuffs, which is usually if they are new. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
:Hi! I have something really big planned for tomorrow. For the 20 year anniversary of Pikmin 2!! It's been in the works for several weeks now. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
Seeing more of your fanon game idea evolutions from 2023 to 2008. I also had many ''Pikmin '' series ideas, [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] ideas, that I did on a drawing free APP lots years ago, all those were forgotten forever, but those I remember were a normal Pikmin which was tan (aka skin-tone cause I didn't knew the color's name) which had just no resistances or anything, though its color was made as the [[Bulbmin]] idle on their ''[[Pikmin 2... Again?]]'', then a smaller Pikmin which was orange (I forgot its actual color but anyways), or even a giant Pikmin which was maroon, those were my most notable ones. Of course, none those I decided to add into my game, cause well, they wouldn't be much interesting I think, and neither the normal Pikmin due to the [[Pikpik carrot|Walking Golden Pikpik Carrot]], due to what I call as the "unoriginality rule", which there can't be 2 Pikmin with a too similar purpose. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
 
:Those are some cool ideas! The giant Pikmin sounds like it could be really unique and interesting. Yeah, I had a ton of ideas for Pikmin fangames over the years. The one with the coolest new Pikmin is definitely ''Leaves of Soil''. Of all the ideas I've had for Pikmin games in the past, that one's probably the most likely for me to write about on this wiki, well other than [[Pikmin: Antarctic Survival]] which I'm currently working on. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
::Actually, I plan to reference those old ideas in my new [[Pikmin 2... Again?/Customization|customization]] setting, but I would add those to story mode at least, for you know, there's like 7 Pikmin in there, and 11 in total, so I would add them for other game modes, cause I got an idea of the giant Pikmin being able to carry Pikmin or even [[leader]]s like a platform to reach higher places, which sounds interesting, and the small Pikmin could pass through small tunnels... But there's already the [[Slime Pikmin]], however... So I'll make those are reskins for them. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
 
:::Customization... sounds cool. Wait, it says you're making it on April Fools' Day? ''Uh-oh...'' {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
::::Don't worry, it'll won't be a fake/joke addition, at least it'll be permanent and not a event feature. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}

Welcome! Wow, you really fleshed out a lot of stuff in a short time, haha. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:22, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
 
Oh yes, I'd also like to ask you about your game's subcategories of creatures, main protagonists, and tyrants, since they don't really match up with the rest of the [[:Category:Game content|game content]] categories, and I would prefer consistency in wiki content. Perhaps you could change main protagonists into characters and merge creatures and tyrants into enemies? If you really insist on letting the categories as they are now, I'll let it go. Also, I wanted to say that ''Antarctic Survival'' seems like a neat game, just skimming over its content. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 15:16, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
 
:Hi! So the main protagonists are characters, but they're more significant than most of them. Think like how in ''Pikmin 4'', you have a bunch of different characters, but the Rescue Corps characters are much more significant compared to the other castaways. I could get rid of the main protagonists category if it's a problem, and just have a characters category for all of them. As for tyrants, they're a special kind of enemy; they're bosses, but they're major area bosses, similar to the main bosses of ''Pikmin 3''. Meanwhile, other boss creatures in ''Antarctic Survival'' are lesser bosses and you'll typically have multiple different kinds in an area, like the Burrowing Snagret and Shaggy Long Legs in ''Pikmin 3''. Meanwhile, the reason I use the term "creatures" rather than enemies is that while most of them start as hostile enemies, they'll end up being converted to your side and join as characters, with "creatures" being a summary term for this. I totally agree that this game doesn't match up with the rest of the game content categories. That's because ''Antarctic Survival'' is a spinoff title, with very different gameplay mechanics compared to main series ''Pikmin'' games. If it's a problem to have more unique subcategories, I could merge them into the main types of categories. However, I feel like the traditional "enemies" category doesn't really fit well for the mechanics of a spinoff title like this. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
:The way the wiki goes about it, characters are still characters, no matter how minor. The same logic applies to bosses, that being bosses are still bosses, no matter if they're minor or major. I guess what could be done is moving "main protagonists" to just "characters", "tyrants" to "bosses" (and place it in the "creatures" category as a subcategory), and maybe just leave the "creatures" category as-is for the reasons you said. I think that sounds fair. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 15:01, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
 
::That makes sense, and I can definitely put the protagonists into characters category and tyrants into bosses category as the main form of categorization. However, I do notice that some bosses like the [[Plasm Wraith]] have additional categories such as one for "final bosses" and some for its elemental categories. Would I be able to make special categories like this for specific creatures in ''Antarctic Survival,'' as long as I place them into the main categories as well? This way, I could have a tyrants category but not have it as the main form of classification. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
:::I dunno. I wouldn't want a general "tyrants" category because then it would just be a duplicate "bosses" category. The "final bosses" category has its purpose, and so do the categories in [[:Category:Enemies by characteristics|enemies by characteristics]] and [[:Category:Enemies by hazard|enemies by hazard]]. I wouldn't want too many more categories in the "enemies by characteristics/hazard" categories than there are already. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:29, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
 
::::Okay, I won't make any new types of categories besides the "creatures" one, that sounds reasonable. I plan to make a new category for "Mist enemies" though because it's a new sort of hazard across many of my games, including ''Antarctic Survival.'' {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
:::::Sounds good. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:26, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 
:::::I took care of moving the categories around as we discussed, and it just occurred to me that most creatures in your game will be in both the "creatures" and "characters" categories for your game, with the obvious exception of the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]]. Hmm...{{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 15:16, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
 
::::::Yeah, I'm not even sure if I need a "characters" category, for that reason. I'll have to think about it more, I suppose. It's probably going to be a bit before I do any more creature / enemy / character pages anyway. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
:::::::Sounds good. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:02, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 
::::::::I'm thinking I might just remove the "''Pikmin: Antarctic Survival'' characters" category, as it seems redundant. I'll only use the "Pikmin: Antarctic Survival creatures" category for now, and think about if any other categories are desired going forward. Can I just go ahead and remove the characters category? {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
:::::::::Sure thing. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 13:50, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

I have a clarification question regarding capitalization of the term "Awakened" or "Awakening". I noticed on the [[Porquillion]] page that all instances of the word "Awakening" were converted to lowercase. In ''[[Pikmin: Antarctic Survival]]'', the term "awaken" can have a specific meaning referring to the process of a creature becoming injected with the game's awakening essence and subsequently becoming a usable character once the process is complete. The reason I use capitalization for this word is for clarity, because lowercase "awakening" can also just mean waking up from a slumber. I find it is more clear if "Awakening" is capitalized when referring to this gameplay mechanic. I also capitalize "Awakening Essence" for the same reason, as it is a proper title of sorts for the liquid substance that spreads Awakening. Is there a reason not to capitalize it? I capitalize it whenever I use it in an article, and I'd like to keep the ''Antarctic Survival'' articles consistent. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
:It's just that I don't believe awakening has to be capitalized, regardless of the context, and neither does awakening essence. If you insist, then again I'll let it go. Though, maybe you could use the term "enlightenment" instead? The reason I say that is because, in another writing project of mine, creatures classified as monsters sometimes undergo a process called enlightenment, where they gain self-awareness and slightly more intelligence and can form communities, much like awakening in your game. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 15:01, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
 
::I'll have to think about this more, I suppose. I certainly find it easier to read with "Awakening" capitalized, but if this is an unpopular opinion I can try to make all instances of the term lowercase. I just want to keep it consistent, and not have it capitalized in some places and lowercase in others. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
:::You can capitalize "awakening" if you want, I just personally wouldn't prefer it, but I can put up with it. And I completely understand wanting consistency, always striving for it myself. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:29, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

==Re:Order of fangame sections on pages==
As Darryl said on my talk page in response to your message, yes, the sections should be in alphabetical order. "A" and "The" are typically ignored, but that's nothing you have to worry about for your game. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 13:31, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
 
==Merge==
Okay seeing all the aristocrabs is cool and its easier to see them all but I dont think I read the Brute aristocrab desc very clear so it just sounded like it was only scaled up. Though I guess I can see the similarity. All of the tough aristocrabs all in the same place. Seems fair enough. We can have it with the brute. I'm fine with it. {{unsigned|Ek1047}}
 
Yes, it is a stronger, two-clawed aristocrab (better saying, all aristocrabs have two claws but one is smaller, for this one both are the same size). So it fits there. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
 
==Re:About using other users' creatures==
In the past, it was recommended to ask a user for permission to use something they made purely out of politeness. During "The Reform", such as it was, of the policies and guidelines, this was changed because all but a small few users from the past went permanently offline. Now, all concepts that can be shared between games are there for anyone to use freely. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 13:06, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
 
:I see. I noticed you changed the [[3000-NORB]] page and removed references to the Overlord from ''[[Pikmin: Decayed Leaf]]''. How does this differ from other forms of using content between games? Is it because the Overlord is a plot-important character rather than a creature? ''Antarctic Survival'' blurs the lines between characters and creatures, so I'm not sure at what point it is disallowed to use ideas between games like this. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
::I didn't think I changed the 3000-NORB all that much. And I removed the Overlord's notes because he is a character rather than just a regular old enemy, and I'm not sure how much Soundwave would like a character he made being... well, honestly, inaccurately portrayed in a game that he not only doesn't appear in but was made in kind of a "what if" scenario. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 15:31, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
 
:::Yeah, it's fair to remove that. I just wanted to make sure I knew what the distinction was there, and I guess him being a character and not just an enemy is probably what it is. I will make sure to ask users for permission regarding their characters that are shown with dialogue and personality and characterization, before I use any characters like this in ''Antarctic Survival'' DLC packs. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}


::::Yeah, unless you plan on adding fanmade characters, you should be fine. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 15:44, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
== Heyhey! ==


Regarding this... is there a chance of the Grimacing Cremblub being used in ''Antarctic Survival''? It'd definitely be a creature from the caves. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 13:36, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
I noticed your message thing said "AKA the guy with 50 fanon games" and I just went "wow yeah we're the same here" and I just that was cool. Another thing, I've opened up the join page in case you want to join the [[Pikmin: Planes of Life/Join|Planes of Life]] rp.


:It will not be used in the base game, but will likely be a tyrant if I create a ''Pikmin: Wide World'' DLC pack for ''Antarctic Survival''. I was actually thinking of asking you if I could create one for ''Wide World'', but I might not do it anytime soon because I have other content packs I plan on making first. I think a ''Wide World'' content pack could be cool because ''Wide World'' is one of my favorite fangames on Pikmin Fanon. So, if you're okay with it, I'll probably make a ''Wide World'' DLC eventually. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
Also how've you been? {{CJ-Does-Pikmin|<!--This user is a certified dandelion-->}}


::Oh, well, of course it would have to be DLC content. And I would love if you made a ''PWW'' DLC pack! And I'm glad you think so highly of my proudest ''Pikmin'' creation. Just wait until its sequel, which also features DLC content packs, comes out, heheh. On that note, I guess I should pump out some enemy article sections after I refine the content I already published. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:07, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
:I've been good. Working on a huge project that I'm releasing tomorrow for ''Pikmin 2''{{'s}} twenty year anniversary. And yeah, you can look at my user page if you want to see a list of my fanon games (though it isn't even close to all of them.) I'll probably look into the Planes of Life RP soon but I'm mainly focusing on my big project right now. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}

==Question==
==I'm back (Part 22)==
How does the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] work in your game? Are them like mini characters, or maybe helpers, that are resistant to certain [[hazard]]s (let me guess, here [[Bulbmin]] will be resistant to every hazard? At least apparently, cause everyone still makes Bulbmin like that even after [[Glow Pikmin]] that I'm not even surprised anymore)? {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
Hey A Friendly Amprat! I'm here back again!  {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
 
:Hi! Check this out! [[User talk:A Friendly Amprat/Pikmin III Adventure|''Pikmin III'' Adventure]] {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:Pikmin are in the process of being added into the game and aren't fully decided yet, but the plan is that Pikmin will be able to be Awakened and become settlement residents like other creatures. As characters, Pikmin are planned to be a generally hiveminded species, and individual Pikmin won't have names or their own personalities. However, there will be some individual Pikmin who don't fit this trend, having their own names and personalities. These Pikmin will be considered "defective" by other Pikmin due to their abnormal behavior. Of course -- you don't have to follow any of this when designing a Pikmin character, and you can make a Pikmin character however you want, like you would make any other creature into a character. This is what I plan on the lore for Pikmin being, though. I will be writing some more information about this in the near future when I begin to detail how Pikmin work in ''Antarctic Survival''. And yeah, Pikmin will be immune to the hazards they normally are, and have the same properties and abilities that are expected of their colors. Bulbmin are undecided, and I'll probably make them resist some hazards, but not every one. Which hazards specifically they resist have not been fully fleshed out yet. Glow Pikmin are planned to still resist every hazard (except gloom), but these Pikmin are alien in nature and actually cannot be recruited to the Diamond Settlement due to their bizarre nature. They do have a very important role they will play in the story, but this has not been revealed yet. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
==Re:Category question==
You're fine categorizing them that way. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 13:28, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 
== Amprats- Rats or dogs? ==
 
Hehe, I've heard a debate going on across the fandom about whether Amprats are rats or dogs, it's kind of a funny question. I originally thought they were dogs, until I saw that they were in the numbouse family, loll- Though this debate has mostly died down... What do you think of amprats? (Personally, I say they're really cute) [[User:CJ-Does-Pikmin|CJ-Does-Pikmin]] ([[User talk:CJ-Does-Pikmin|talk]]) 16:03, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
 
Those <s>dogs</s> rats are cute, at least until they get [[Electricity|electric]], but when I first saw them I thought this... Thing, was strange-looking, but also has the colors of a dog in my logic, so I thought they were dogs, but well, when there had no piklopedia, I had no idea what they were until {{p3d}}, where they readded the [[Piklopedia]]. At first I thought they were harmless until they shake their fur and suddenly reveal their mouth. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
 
I found the electricity to be cute. And cool! I mean, it makes sense. Static electricity is created when two things harshly rub together and part chemicals, causing a short burst of electricity. In fact, for them to make enough electricity to be seen in yellow is near impossible, but it's probably just the whole comical setting of Pikmin rather than actually realistic, though it makes sense in gameplay to see it, that way you don't lose too many Pikmin to it without knowing. I'm not sure if it's setting, gameplay, or both now- [[User:CJ-Does-Pikmin|CJ-Does-Pikmin]] ([[User talk:CJ-Does-Pikmin|talk]]) 16:55, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
 
Amprats have always been based on rodents. They're not based on dogs at all. It's amusing that I'm not the only one who made this mistake, but in retrospect they don't really look like dogs other than some front views I suppose. Their paws, tails, and especially faces under the fur are very rodent-ish. Even in Pikmin 3 before Deluxe, they were called "Amprats" not "Ampdogs". This didn't stop me from calling them "Dograts" for years but I don't do that anymore because it was silly. I love Amprats, and they're definitely rats, hence the name. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
Yeah I getchu [[User:CJ-Does-Pikmin|CJ-Does-Pikmin]] ([[User talk:CJ-Does-Pikmin|talk]]) 21:00, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
 
For some reason, I had suddenly the idea to do a [[Numbouse family|numbouse]] based on sewer rats seeing AFA saying that they were rats... {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
 
Yo, that's epic! I had an idea of a "Sewer Amprat" for Pikmin Quest back in 2015 but it never got that developed, so seeing one fleshed out is really cool to see. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
 
Oh, yeah. I usually never did a numbouse original to my game, due to me not wanting to make elemental variants of enemies meant to do something like the other but the opposite or another elemental reskin. But until I got a idea to make a very aggresive amprat. (I'm busy making stuffs now its april fools, before everyone else gets active) {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
 
==April fools==
Good to see peoples joined too! I planned to be the first to do a april fools for the wiki, and for a game, so I had many stuffs planned, so we have... [[Pikmin 2... Again?/The Amazing New Update!!|The Amazing New Update!!]]. But actually I saw many persons also did. Like, I got doing pages for all the time ago as long as I saw I'm in 1st april, so I would surprise peoples when they came back. I had plans already, but I told nobody so not to spoil it. Also, about your [[User:A Friendly Amprat/Red Boloroborp|Red Boloroborp]] and the edit on [[Red Bulborb]], I'll undo the Red Bulborb one, and convert your joke page into a user subpage when 1st april passes, based they are kinda spam and vandalism, but based they were for april fools, I'll keep them. Also, did you do its artwork? You do pixel art now? {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
:So, actually, the pixel art was made by my sister. She's the one who came up with "Boloroborp". I do draw some pixel art stuff, but this one wasn't me. And yeah, I want to remove this stuff once April Fools' is over, because it doesn't really fit the A Friendly Amprat brand, and it's a bit all over the place. I actually wanted to do something higher effort, but didn't have the time this year... Maybe next year. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}

:::::Happy April Fool's Day! This year, our prank is saying that it's still 2023 in the news. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::::Also, I like The Amazing New Update a lot more than my Boloroborp. It clearly had a ton of thought put into it and it shows. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::Yes, I didn't made it only to be silly, I made it to have a story and be larger than others. Also, I have a better idea, maybe put on the news a prank of a fake thing, I have no other idea after this part. Or maybe the main page could be changed, but I presume you cannot do a entire mediawiki css in one day for april fools.{{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
:::::::Yeah, I'm much more focused on moderating the wiki than fooling around, anyway. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:24, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
::::::::I'm making a whole bunch of fanon games that it's kind of overwhelming but I'm absolutely going to keep doing it, even though it's kind of unhealthy, it's fun and I'm going to keep doing it and and and and and and- ~ [[User:CJ-Does-Pikmin|CJ-Does-Pikmin]] ([[User talk:CJ-Does-Pikmin|talk]]) 00:34, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::Haha, I have a bajillion Pikmin fanon games. Though I'm avoiding making articles on any of them on this wiki, I want to focus on my main project and not split my attention. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::::::::CJ simply appeared out of nowhere {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
Okay, based you  may be going to remove it, I'll immortilizate and reference this masterpiece as a skin for [[Pikmin 2... Again?/Customization|customization]] setting also added in April Fools' Day but not a joke but instead a very cool and big feature. And the Piglin (but as how I see), and a mentions of a "Oloromor", which it a nod to Red Boloroborp's name, which is... That way I guess. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
:Yeah, I'd like to delete Boloroborp, it was a silly April Fools' prank but it's a bit spammy for my liking to keep it anywhere after April 1. Plus, there's some inappropriate jokes in it (at least the original version) which aren't really right for this wiki. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::I think it should stay. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:16, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
:::Eeh, I'd really rather it doesn't, for the reasons I mentioned earlier.  It isn't really something which fits with my normal "Amprat brand", which was sort of the joke but since April Fools' is over now... At the very least I'd rather it be removed from the news, because I don't really want it being one of the first things people see of mine on this wiki, since it's nothing like the kind of content I want to make due to the inappropriate and low quality nature. The Amazing New Update deserves to be in the news because it's a genuinely awesome idea and makes a great April Fools update for a hypothetical Pikmin fan game. Red Boloroborp on the other hand is something I threw together in like an hour as a brief April Fools joke, parodying a lot of stuff relating to this wiki. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::If I felt the same way about things I made, I would have deleted ''[[Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs]]'' long ago. I honestly think it's worth keeping. It's a good joke, one that had much effort put into it, and it'll get a good laugh out of the people who have read the Red Bulborb's page in its entirety. One silly page won't ruin what people think of your serious content. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:41, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
:::::I actually really liked ''Attack of the Breadbugs''. Despite its silly premise, it never really struck me as a joke game. And it's a lot higher quality than a single article that I threw together in about an hour using text replacement. The Boloroborp page doesn't really work without the crude humor, which obviously isn't allowed on this wiki, so the new version of the page doesn't follow my original vision anyway. We can keep it if you want, I just don't think it's really that good, and I'd rather not it be the first thing everyone sees of my content because of the main page. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::To elaborate a bit further, something I consider is that I started reading ''Pikmin Fanon'' articles when I was eight years old. At that age, there are a lot of things that would have upset or offended me, mainly regarding more inappropriate or adult jokes, and especially swear words. I'm not like that anymore, but I want to be thoughtful of other people who might be in the situation I was then, and I don't want to scare them off from the wiki with my inappropriate page. I've cleaned it up now and removed the swear words and innuendo, but they're still there in the page's history. Honestly, the page isn't nearly as funny without them, which is another reason I didn't plan to keep the page around. Part of what made my joke page funny to me was how it didn't fit in ''Pikmin Fanon'' at all for a variety of reasons, as parts of it were a parody of low quality and inappropriate edits. Thus keeping it on ''Pikmin Fanon'' means either keeping this off-beat page, or changing it to be more in line with the rest of the wiki, which sort of defeats the purpose of the joke. I've updated it now to make it something that wouldn't have upset me at eight years old, but at this point the page doesn't follow my original vision. Also, I actually did archive to my own computer the original version of the page, which I saved as a html file and plan on keeping in case I want to look back at it and laugh at the dumb inappropriate humor later. I just don't think this page belongs in any context other than on April Fools' Day. Still, if you all really want to keep it and still find the new "sanitized" version funny, I guess that's fine, I just wasn't planning on that. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::::::I see. Well, I'd still like it to be kept, even if it is against your wishes. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 13:34, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
::::::::I mean, the Red Boloroborp holding me at gunpoint and forcing me to keep it on the wiki even after April Fools is pretty in-character for the Red Boloroborp. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
==I'm here==
Hey A Friendly Amprat! I'm here. Talk to me other things. {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:Yoooo Leo! What's up dude! I see you found my talk page! What do you want to talk about while we're here? Have you ever come up with a new Amprat enemy for Pikmin? {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:Yes! Create a new page, little dude! {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
::So, What's his name of this enemy? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::Oh, I don't have a new Amprat enemy, I was asking if ''you'' had ever come up with one. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::Hmmm.... Oh! I know! Wanna make a enemy from a new family type? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::Oh an enemy in a new family? Yeah we could do that... I have some ideas for creatures in reptile-inspired families because there's basically none of those in the ''Pikmin'' series right now. Like a lizard enemy or turtle enemy, something like that. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::So, what's his family's name? Think. {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::::How about, "Tumbling Shellsnapper"! It's like a turtle but with much longer legs, and it's known to throw itself down slopes and tumble down to crush whatever is on the slope with its shell! It will eat Pikmin that it can't crush, like Rock Pikmin. It also eats Pikmin if there's no slope to slide down in its shell. And because of the shell, only its head and legs can be attacked by Pikmin. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::::::::::What happens when you defeat it? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
::::::::::::When you defeat it, it roars and withdraws into its shell, which is the carcass that the Pikmin can carry. If you wait too long to carry the shell back to the Onion, it revives and comes back out of its shell, like how Gatling Groinks revive in Pikmin 2. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::::::::::::::What games appears this enemy? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::::::::::::::::Oh, I don't have a game for it yet! You could use it for one of your games if you want. I might also put it in my [[Pikmin: Antarctic Survival|current game]] as a DLC creature. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::::::::::::::::::Now let's start making this enemy! {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
::::::::::::::::::::You mean, like a page for it on the wiki? {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::::::::::::::::Yes! {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
::::::::::::::::::::Oh! I forgot something. What areas appears this enemy? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::::::::::::::::::I don't have areas for it yet. You could come up with some for it if you'd like. I've created a page for it: [[Tumbling Shellsnapper]]. You can edit it if you want to. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::::::::::::::::::::Please, add the image and the scientific name! {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
::::::::::::::::::::::I'm not really good at drawing, so I might ask my sister to make an image for it. I haven't thought of the scientific name yet, but I'll add it when I do. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::::::::::::::::::So, add the image on the page! {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::::::::::::::::::::I do not have an image yet. Hopefully I will soon. Oh, by the way! Check out some messages that the other users want you to see, if you haven't yet.

:Yo. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::What's up today? Is it your birthday? Or... we can make another enemy on the wiki? {{unsigned|Leoasiago}}
:::Why are you not talking? {{unsigned|Leoasiago}}
::::Oh, I didn't want to respond until I knew you were done editing my talk page. I don't really have much to say either, I'm currently a bit busy in real life. It's not my birthday (that was a few months ago) and yeah, I'd be down to make a new enemy, but you gotta start it. What family should it be in? {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::::Hmmm.... I don't know. Can you help me? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::Oh! I know! We can make a new family like the Grub-dogs that we can make the Grub-rats!
:::::The informations are these: Grub-rats are some species like Grub-dogs that they are like rats. They are so fast and very common to see in the games, and they are so weak. {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
::::::A Friendly Amprat, where are you? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::::Ooh, grub-rats. I like that. We already have [[grub-cat family|grub-cats]], [[grub-hog family|grub-hogs]], and the like, it would be cool to have another similar family. (Probably grub-cats are the natural predator of grub-rats) Also, sorry that I'm not on much, I don't really have the free time to be on the wiki all the time unfortunately. So if it takes me a long time to get back to you, thats why. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::::What enemies you think to add on this family? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::::::I would honestly stray from making more grub-dog family variations. Could just put it in the same family as the amprats. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 14:19, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
::::::::::Yeah, they'd be [[Numbouse family|Numbice]], but they're "grub-dog mimics" similar to how some [[Breadbug family|Breadbugs]] are. I imagine they'd have little whiskers and mouse ears, and long tails, but other than that they have a grub-dog body type. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::::::So, What's the first enemy on the Grub-rats family? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::::::::How about "Red Mini Bulbouse". A Numbouse mimic of the [[Red Bulborb]] that is similar to a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]] but a bit smaller and much faster. They're sensitive to loud noises because of their big ears, so if one of them is running toward you you can drive it away just scaring it off by whistling at it. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::::::::::Cool name! Can you make the image and their informations? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
::::::::::::I don't have time to do so right now, I gotta get back to work so I won't be on Pikmin Fanon for a while. But, I will make a page for the Red Mini Bulbouse later today, when I'm not busy. For now, Amprat out. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::::::::Bye bye A Friendly Amprat! Now i'm going home! {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}

::::Uhmmm... Who's here?? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
::::Uh-oh, Everywone is gone! Where are you! {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::Like I said, I'm busy right now, so I'm not able to be online much. Sorry! {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
:::::Umm, A Friendly Amprat, can i go now to bed when i see you to make the "Red Mini Bulbouse"? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::::You can go to bed if you want. I'll make the page for the Red Mini Bulbouse when I have free time. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::::::::Uhhh, Ok A Friendly Amprat, I don't wanna go to bed. I see you when you're finished. So, bye! I'm seeing you later when you're finished! {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
::::::::Are you finished? {{User:Leoasiago/sig}}
:::::::::Haha, no, sorry, I don't get off work for another five hours. I'm on a short break right now, and I'll try to get the Red Mini Bulbouse started, but I don't know if I'll get far. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}

==''Pikmin III''==
I'm curious to know what your ''Pikmin III'' would be about, and yeah, it was a good time you didn't edit your userpage, but it you want to use templates for user pages, you can always use them whenever you want. Well, it is similar to ''[[Pikmin 2... Again?]]'', where it was also a sequel to a game of like 18 years ago if I'm not wrong, but improved in that case. But yours is based on older games and on your old concept, mine just appeared there for fix all things peoples didn't like from the ''Pikmin'' series (at a critical point on {{p4}}, stuffs such as less difficult, [[Puffstool]] but worse, [[White Pikmin]] unnessecary nerfed while [[Purple Pikmin]] got buffed too much, and stuffs) or and to remove things considered OP or UP (Underpowered), or just unoriginal, and add new stuffs. So your ''Pikmin III'' sounds that it based on more stuffs, in first place, everything you made were larger than mine, and each ''[[Pikmin: Antarctic Survival]]'' Awakened creature had a name with a interesting origin (such as [[Groovy Long Legs]]), which I never did ones as much as yours usually. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
:''[[Pikmin III]]'' is going to be smaller-scale than ''Antarctic Survival'', but I still plan on making it a full-length Pikmin game idea. I don't plan to work on it nearly as much as ''Antarctic Survival'' since that's my main project, but I thought it would be fun to work on something new and more "traditional Pikmin gameplay" to spice things up, because I was getting tired of just writing creature descriptions. As for my userpage, yeah, I'll update it periodically over time but I don't plan on making it super fancy like some people have it on this wiki, just making it a repository of my ''Pikmin'' game concepts. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}
::Usually, I avoid to make two games. Like, if one is too much, imagine two. {{User:Blower Pot/sig}}
:::Heh. Hopefully it isn't too much for me. It helps that their gameplay is very different and they're very different types of games in general. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}

==Re:Cleanup regarding objectivity policy==
Yeah, those pages don't follow the modern guidelines because they haven't been updated. A lot of pages are like that yet. And you bring up some good points in your thoughts on the current policies, and honestly some of them I agree with. One such one is that modern Pikmin Fanon feels impersonal or robotic at times, which it does, but that's a result of what the more encyclopedic writing style calls for. I guess I just prefer that style of writing over something more casual, or with the innocent charm of a kid. I also appreciate that you realize why our policies are so strict; back before I reformed them, it was a free-for-all. And games can definitely have walkthrough/guide-style subpages, there's nothing against it. And I... guess I can accept the use of the word "you" in them, since they are guides. I like to think that Pikmin Fanon already has a "what-if" element to its writing, but with me as chief of editing, it's ultimately up to me to allow or deny something new that comes up. I'm admittedly pretty stubborn, so it takes some effort to make me bend, but if someone brings up a problem and we discuss it I usually accept it. And I don't mind the Amprants, just look at how I go on and on in my ''PWW''-related content, haha. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 13:04, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
:Yeah, I write in the encyclopedic manner as well, just look at my pages. As a kid I would write "you" in my stuff, but I generally don't really have that style in my writing anymore. I'd use it if I made a fake walkthrough for a game, but generally it's personal preference for me. Though I do sometimes feel like my writing comes off as stilted and awkward with the lengths I go to to avoid "you" and similar words. The encyclopedic writing style has benefits, I do like it in a lot of ways, but at the same time it doesn't feel as "Pikmin Fanon-y" as the more casual writing style of the early days, this is a creative fan content site and not an encyclopedia. And yeah I was there for the pre-reform era in the mid-late 2010s, it was a mess. Don't feel like you have to change anything, like I said I just wanted to express some thoughts I'd formed regarding this. I still love modern Pikmin Fanon, I've been around 15 years and I'm hoping for another 15 more. If there are ever discussions regarding policy updates, I'd give my thoughts there as well. For now, I'm gonna keep following things as they're set up now. {{User:A Friendly Amprat/sig}}

==Re:Sinister Incinerator Cave Headings==
I think they look messy as headings. Maybe they could be in the form of a quote instead? {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 13:05, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 
==THE CAVES==
What's the plans with the caves in Hinsburg's game? I hope you plan on expanding them. If not, they should probably be merged into the areas' main pages. {{User:Cheepy-Cheepy/sig}} 13:39, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Congrats!

hey dude, congrats! you are now officially a part of the staff in this wiki! ~ P5MV Red Pikmin leaf.pngI’m RedPikmin95, and I'm always out on the racetrack!!

Thanks! Indeed. I better up my editing game. – P4 Bearded Amprat icon.png A Friendly Amprat (Talk | Contribs | Projects)
WOW!!! Thank you... 😍😍😍 Also, i can be a part of the staff in this wiki. I will be at the 2nd place. ~ P2 Hairy Bulborb icon.png Leonardo Contributions | Fanon game

Nah, I don't think you want to be staff. It's a lot of responsibility. Also not sure what this leaderboard is for? – P4 Bearded Amprat icon.png A Friendly Amprat (Talk | Contribs | Projects)
Leaderboards are entirely based upon points. They cannot be scoped to different activities. The leaderboard cannot differentiate between why the points were awarded. If a user received 250 points for answering questions and another 250 for asking questions, and a second user received 500 for answering questions, the leaderboard would not be able to tell you which one was the better question answerer, it would just see them both as having 500 points. ~ P2 Hairy Bulborb icon.png Leonardo Contributions | Fanon game

Wait what– AFA got promoted? I wasn't expecting this, no doubt. It is very good to see. Also, I saw that I was included on the leaderboard. – Blower Pot icon.pngBlower Pot Talk | Contributions | Fanon game
Wait… WHAT? ~I’m PikminKart P18b11 Porquillion extinct.png SuperCircuit, and I know the Pikmin Comic schedule! 17:32, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
Yeah, I was shocked too! I figured if anyone would become staff, it would be Blower Pot because they've been active here for a lot longer than me. Even if I've technically been around for a lot longer, I just didn't make an account until very recently. – P4 Bearded Amprat icon.png A Friendly Amprat (Talk | Contribs | Projects)
I also cleaned pages up before King Boo come if they aren't on the right format. But not as much as before. But I hope I can possibly clean up more pages, and those from Pikmin: Echoes of Eternity. And make old pages into the correct format, too. But yeah, I really thought it would be me too based I edit pages a lot to clean them up into their format. – Blower Pot icon.pngBlower Pot Talk | Contributions | Fanon game

I would love to be a staff member to if could. but congrats at being a staff member! MarioGuy (talk) 22:22, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

I thought I could be good if I was on the staff. Based peoples edit on this wiki so much with pages that will be marked for deletion and stuffs that I can just wait. But I hope AFA learns how to use their powers now as a administrator. – Blower Pot icon.pngBlower Pot Talk | Contributions | Fanon game
I may consider also making you an admin at some point, Blower Pot. ~ Cheepy-Cheepy icon.pngCheepy-Cheepy  13:23, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Also, AFA, you know you can delete pages? If you don't know how, better see the help page for the staff members, it'll help you to know what you can do. Look, see the Administrator's Handbook, this is the first thing you see in the help page list. – Blower Pot icon.pngBlower Pot Talk | Contributions | Fanon game

I'm back (Part 22)

Hey A Friendly Zapibara! I'm here back again! ~ P2 Hairy Bulborb icon.png Leonardo Contributions | Fanon game

Hi! I have something really big planned for tomorrow. For the 20 year anniversary of Pikmin 2!! It's been in the works for several weeks now. – P4 Bearded Amprat icon.png A Friendly Amprat (Talk | Contribs | Projects)

Heyhey!

I noticed your message thing said "AKA the guy with 50 fanon games" and I just went "wow yeah we're the same here" and I just that was cool. Another thing, I've opened up the join page in case you want to join the Planes of Life rp.

Also how've you been?

I've been good. Working on a huge project that I'm releasing tomorrow for Pikmin 2's twenty year anniversary. And yeah, you can look at my user page if you want to see a list of my fanon games (though it isn't even close to all of them.) I'll probably look into the Planes of Life RP soon but I'm mainly focusing on my big project right now. – P4 Bearded Amprat icon.png A Friendly Amprat (Talk | Contribs | Projects)
OOOHHH I'M EXCITED!! I wanna know what the big project's gonna be! That sounds exciting... :D - CJ
Check it out! – P4 Bearded Amprat icon.png A Friendly Amprat (Talk | Contribs | Projects)

Hahahaha- I'm surprised!

I clicked on your "Test your luck" and it gave the Vampire Bulbear. Very spooky!! Also, I'm surprised that you could figure out how to make the sig on your text bubbles alternate randomly when in editing. I'm fascinated by it! Best of G'bye! -CJ

The Vampire Bulbear is very good. It was good to begin with, and PWW made it even better. ~ Cheepy-Cheepy icon.pngCheepy-Cheepy  12:54, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Archival

I think it's about time you archive most of the sections in your talk page, since it's getting so long. ~ Cheepy-Cheepy icon.pngCheepy-Cheepy  12:54, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

That is a great idea! – P4 Bearded Amprat icon.png A Friendly Amprat (Talk | Contribs | Projects)
You're welcome. I put a link to it at the top of the page. ~ Cheepy-Cheepy icon.pngCheepy-Cheepy  13:23, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

I'm actually really surprised there aren't more people on today. Today is the 20-year anniversary of Pikmin 2! This is one of the biggest days ever!!
I made this to commemorate such a momentous day: Pikmin III Adventure. I will update it frequently and this is how I will be revealing content for my new game, Pikmin III.
