    I don't know how it happened, I just toss 5 rock pikmin to the violet candypop bud and proceed to pluck them and then the glitch started, I tried to recreate the glitch but I couldn't.

      Looks to me like it has something to do with both the player character and oatchi bumping into each other, both trying to occupy the same space. It's possible that it's screwing with the way the game handles plucking and so they keep plucking the same spot?

      ​@@princeofhyrule2205 You don't need to do sage trials to consistently get Purple Pikmins.
      Go to the Serene Shores map. Finish the Engulfed Castle cave.There are 2 purple blooms right near the exit.
      From there on, re-enter the cave with max blue Pikmins. Select sublevel 5. Convert 10 pikmins, use the jelly nearby to give them flowers if you want and leave the cave.
      Rinse and repeat.

    Can we all give oatchi a round of applause and appreciate his efforts. Purple pikmin canonically weigh 10 pikmin worth per purple. So with 100 purple pikmin on his back, I'd say he's fairly strong... Still being able to run and jump.
    Oh also, I'm surprised this isn't forming a singularity with how dense the matter must be in this area. After all, it's also canon that a single purple pikmin is enough to collapse dimensions.

    The explanation for why the game didn't count them in the results screen is just because the game doesn't account for pikmin lost/gained via candypop buds. It's a bit annoying tbh because it's easy to lose track of numbers in caves where candypops regularly appear.

    • @kenziemac130
      @kenziemac130 Рік тому +4

      Overdraw is also a main issue on switch. Large portions of the screen being filled by tris that draw over others dozens of times is the likely culprit here if I would have to guess. (you often see this kind of slowdown on switch games with lots of particles or where a transparent or dithered surface blocks most of the screen). Even with a depth prepass the fragment shader would have to be executed on the pikmin leaves (and probably the whole model) to use a fragment discard operation. Not to mention the transparent glow effect when pikmin are inactive. This is a nightmare scenario for switch.

    Looks like you’ve still got a few sprouts to pluck.

    the fact that you can have 300~ pikmin with no lag tells me that Nintendo should have increased the pikmin maximum limit! At least increase it to 200, the game gives you WAY more flarlic than you need.

    This is a good problem to have.
    I noticed Pikmin 4 doesn't count candy pop conversions in the stats, so that explains why it said you didn't get any

    It didn't count them as new Pikmin since they came from a Candypop Bud. The game doesn't see Pikmin sprouted from Candypop Buds as new for some reason.

    I’m so surprised you managed to get away with that much and leave the cave with all of those purples without the game crashing
