Can You Beat Pikmin 1 Using Only Blue Pikmin?

[@pressaTD]

Guys please don't make me do Red only, I have a family :(

[@tibby4503]

3:05 damn took you long enough

[@NamelessPerson360]

Yo, I got a great Idea, what if you do reds only???

[@SchemingGoldberg]

Hey, has anybody told you that you should do Pikmin 1 with only Red Pikmin?

[@duck200o25]

do it

[@pikmin937]

You've done 2/3 of them, you're obligated to do it now

[@baconlabs]

I love how you effectively outsourced Pikmin labor to the Bulborbs at one point, brilliant

[@brokencookie1]

Don’t forget the wallywags, they got dragged in too

[@Mokaygee]

The fact you got guard satellite is very impressive! It's the reason I'd never try red only again. Remember, I'm still open to advice if you ever need it. BTW!!! Next time there are codes which I could have told you about which allow you to set which onion you start with!!! There's also one to set day 1 to not tutorial with all onions unlocked, so again you could have done blue only. Very cool stuff in the scene which you may not be aware of.

Oh damn I had no idea… that would have been useful lol and yeah pretty sure I have ptsd from the guard satellite lol, hands down the most stressful part to get.

[@Aquatavius]

@Mokaygee I remember watching you on stream pushing this part several years ago. In fact when I saw this thumbnail my first thought was "Is red-only next for Press A? He's gonna have a tough time with the rng at the very end." I even have a clip somewhere saved, if not on your channel Mokaygee, of the repair-type-bolt spazzing underground everywhere it was the funniest thing. Thanks for the memories

[@Mokaygee]

@@Aquatavius love you bro

[@Luigifan305]

I have a suggestion for a run you could try, "How many Pikmin can you grow in a single 30-Day playthrough?" Naturally, this idea is something that wouldn't really work in 2 or 4 due to them having infinite days, but could be pretty interesting in Pikmin 1 with its 30-Day limit. (It'd also be possible in 3, which has a limit of 99 days if you collect every fruit, but that'd be like three times as much work, and might end up being more tedious than anything.) The idea is to figure out which route would give the maximum possible output of Pikmin before your time limit is up, and depending on which ending you go for, you might end up with different numbers. (for example, if you want the best ending, you would need to go to the Final Trial, but save it until Day 30, whereas if you want the highest possible number regardless of ending, you'd likely be better off in a more populated area) There's also the fact that some enemies spawn and despawn on predetermined days, independently of the overall "respawn after death" system, which could have a significant impact on routing. While this particular run might be more focused on routing than execution, there's still a challenge in making sure that you kill AND collect as many enemies as early and often as possible so that they respawn more times, thus netting you more total kills and more sprouts, while finding time along the way to still make progress and unlock more areas with better yields. Plus, as you learned with that Yellow Wollywog, some enemies never respawn once killed, meaning that you can save those for when it's most convenient instead of needing to rush them asap like the rest. In short, it's almost like taking the premise of the game's Challenge Mode and applying it to the entire main story instead, and to be frank, I'm super curious about what the final total would end up being if, like the challenge maps, a perfect route could be found. Thoughts?

Genius

[@Greenish9204]

So we know that only Red Pikmin is possible, we know that only Yellow Pikmin is possible, and now we know that only Blue Pikmin is possible. Now we need to see if… wait… wdym mean there aren’t any colors left??? I guess we just have hope Olimar’s employer doesn’t go under, otherwise more single color challenges are abound…

[@gamersixtytwo5436]

You need a pikmin to get white/purple

[@Greenish9204]

@@gamersixtytwo5436 this guy literally used Yellow Pikmin the first part of this *Blue Pikmin Only Run* i’m pretty sure just using Pikmin to get Purple and White pikmin wouldn’t matter. Especially if you only use them for that purpose. Also, theres a mod for Purple and White onions.

[@jeremyabbott4537]

can you beat Pikmin 1 with mushroom pikmin?? /s

[@gboogie3257]

Well I always knew Blue Pikmin only was always possible, hell I did Pikmim 2 with blues only first

[@seanimo8579]

Olimar-only run

[@abfdy]

You know what, man? Pikmin 1 is one of my life-long games I have a soft spot for, and having bought 1+2 for Switch last month, I've been playing a lot and watching a bunch of Pikmin videos on KZbin, including some of yours. I usually totally filter out these "Like/Share/Subscribe" requests, but a minute and a half into this video, you make a good case. Liked, commenting, and subscribed. Best wishes for your channel.

[@LiarJudas666]

i think you’ve got a lot of potential with this channel, and think of it this way: folks often like binging videos so reminding to subscribe at the beginning isn’t much different from at the end

[@reeddacted]

This is a fun series!! idk if other viewers feel the same but it might be helpful to have a visual distinction for the clips that are from previous runs or are example footage. Maybe just like desaturating it or something. idk I get confused lol

[@Linus-j4f]

4:08 there was really no winning here. Either you get the 1.5x attack from the reds or the throw height of the yellows to help fight the Snagret.

[@theneighborhoodidiot7768]

yellow only swarming?

[@Cyber_Cheese]

surely could have clipped one of the final 4 parts in that area early instead? not that it would matter, the outcome would have been exactly the same anyway

[@BlouePickdMan]

[@TheCookieMC_]

I watched this after watching your yellows only video and I learned so much glitches in a day that my brain is hurting

[@cafe-mt5nx]

I was about to comment that you can clip out of bounds in the final trial using a pellet posy at the landing site, but I forgot that pellet posy is only in the challenge version of the stage, oops! Awesome video by the way, I love pushing games to their limits. I don’t think I’m patient enough to do something like this though haha

[@jackomecamorfo6060]

i was searching for someone beating pikmin 1 with only blues today and you posted this, coincidence? YES

[@Nonmoth]

I'm loving this sudden surge of more pikmin youtube content these past few months

[@cbored3778]

Asking people to sub gets results, and asking sooner in videos can catch people who intend to finish watching but never do, something I've been guilty of! I love your content, best of luck growing the channel

[@pressaTD]

Thank you

[@PESHajnal30]

Nice video! I kinda wanna see the video with only reds, although this should be a run similar to the yellow and blue run, but with the worst of both runs combined 😅

[@deeb13243]

"and then the breadbug comes to say hi, and we kill him swiftly" hes jus a cute little guy 😭😭😭

[@MizunoKetsuban]

When it came to clipping the parts through the wall, I can't help but wonder if it would have been efficient to park the Pikmin on the other end of the wall so that they could immediately latch onto the part once it started poking through. It worked either way, I'm just amused by the mental image.

[@hugosenet]

Such good timing, perfect to chill the evening before sleeping

[@darkaine7344]

Nice vidéo ! Now you just have to complete the trylogy with reds, then do white/purple only in 2 :D

[@FriendlyArin]

You keep blowing my mind with these videos! Wow!

[@O-01-04]

Challenges like this make me wonder if Pikmin 2 can be beaten with just 1 Pikmin type, too. (Saving Louie specifically, clearing debt would be possible just really really slow due to any pikmin being able to walk into a cave and kill all the enemies, sell them, leave, return, rinse and repeat.)

[@AchEdeJungeNeDu]

Cant wait for my Pikmin 1 + 2 game to arrive. very curious to see how the games gonna feel like with motion controls

[@spazzwazzle]

Thanks for reminding me to sub, lol! I'd been watching from my bed so much that I didn't even notice I wasn't subbed... and let me tell you, you deserve the sub and this channel WILL grow.

Asking to subscribe at the beginning won't help, I don't think. People don't subscribe until they know they like your work, and at the beginning they've got no clue. Has no bearing on me of course, I'm already subbed.

[@DementisXYZ]

I forget; can you punch bomb rocks in pikmin 1 to trigger them? If so, could you nudge them to walls?

Its pretty interesting how the main problem with only yellows is getting things in water. And the main problem with only blues is walls.

Quick Question. Wouldn't it be possible to switch the onions with the Pikmin 1 Randomizer? Or is your plan to keep the Game as close to the original as possible?

[@TheBalthassar]

I pretty sure you can open the bomb rock doors by just hitting them for an eternity.

[@Knooper]

i love your videos so much!!!!

[@illwill42]

I know its possible to break the white wall in impact site day one because i've done it before. You have to throw the pikmin at a specific angle against the right side wall, and the pikmin will land in range to where it grabs their aggro.

[@julymorris6367]

liked and subscribed because you asked so politely, and i also thought i was already

[@HenryXLII]

I'm still very curious what the best ending looks like if you skip a Pikmin type. I'm guessing they will show up in the ending anyways since it's a cutscene, but I'm still curious. Seems from this vid that it is only possible with a solo Yellow run.

[@eets4you]

beautiful video! have you thought working on those challenges on twitch? there might be a public for it (although pikmin is pretty niche)

[@batlrar]

I wonder - do the bombs explode on contact with walls? If you can nudge them over to the walls, that might be a much easier way of getting through them for this or future challenges! I'm just not sure whether it has to be a yellow Pikmin that's the "fuse" of the bomb.

[@KINGitaly]

Roses are red Violets are blue Now u need to do this With reds too

[@dreamcube8996]

Here's something interesting. It's basically impossible to Beat day one with yellow or blue. As you won't have enough pikmin to push the box or get the part. You need to get a pikmin Extinction or olimar down and come back day 2 to get the part.

[@Manny4Life948]

I’m not an expert, but do bomb rock locations switch if you replay the same day? Because therefore, you can just replay the day for (with a generous guess of 30 to 200 times, maybe 800) and you successfully get the bomb rock location, do you just straight up win? I could be wrong and Bomb rocks. Don’t do that but hope is the greatest tool of humanity.

[@waxy1885]

Does the finale part being in water not a problem ? Is this not happening, even for blue Pikmin, to take the normal path and being stuck (by the stone wall or a too high edge) ?
