GO BACK (Pikmin Animation)

You asked for it, here’s another Pikmin animation! This video won the poll by far last week, but Friday Night Funkin and Pokemon fans, worry not, because I’ll still be making those animations too! I’m glad everyone still enjoys my Pikmin stuff. I try to improve a bit with each video, so I hope they get even better over time.
For my next Pikmin video, I think I’ll go back and try to animate one of my Dominosaur comics. Do you have a favorite that you’d like to see?
Also, this week, I experimented with animating shadows for the first time (I didn’t before because I didn’t know how), and I think I’ll keep using them!
Thanks again to my girlfriend Fern for the Flintstones Car idea lol.

Thank you to my girlfriend Fern for coming up with the Flintstone’s Car idea - she gave me the fuel I needed to create this masterpiece. Question: if I were to animate one of my old Dominosaur comics, which would you want to see?

It's the only one smart enough to go straight for the commander. Honestly, there should be more enemies like that. It would make the game more challenging.

[@thenachothief]

@@psychopianist630 Nintendo better be taking notes for Pikmin 4

[@holdthephonexylophone]

@@psychopianist630 Pikmin 2 had enemies like that. The Bumbling Snitchbug was a common enemy that was the captain counterpart to the Swooping Snitchbug. Swooping would pick Pikmin up and replant them after flying a short distance away, while Bumbling would do the same to the captains. The Ranging Bloyster was a boss version of the Toady Bloyster: significantly larger but also with a significantly smaller weak point relative to its size. Unlike Toady who targeted whatever was closest, Ranging would home in on the active captain, signified by the lights coming from its eyes. It ONLY targeted the active captain, which made attacking the weak point at its rear far more difficult.

3.7917 minutes to escape at that speed would be enough time to get in a car and drive away, giving you more time to relax. however, if this act is preformed, you will eventually have to sleep, which would do nothing. the only thing to be worried about is that to escape you have to take a boat, as @noice1465 would drown in the ocean as you escape, so if you preformed to boat strategy, and waited a day at where the boat left you, the next day you would most likely be able to return to your continent and return to your regular life
