Pikmin sure does like it's blob enemies...
yep
Bl0b
When playing Pikmin 3 with my dad for the first time a few years ago, we literally called the plasm wraith “Blobo”
And not finishing
BLOB
It being a second umibozu seems more plausible since it's weaker and in a different planet, the original one shouldn't be able to escape it's planet otherwise the Kopaites and Olimar wouldn't have escaped when it clearly regained it's full strength at the end of Pikmin 3.
Though Olimar needs to have REALLY bad luck to stumble upon every umibozu in the universe…
I knew someone would say something about the Umibozu
Actualy, the logs mention louie and even the president
A_creator's stuf pikmin is so cool i cant wait for pikmin 4
i know, me to, they did sayd it was near completition
A_creator's stuf I knew Louie, but not president in Hey! Pikmin..
I knew that too
"They said its nearing completion" comment was made 2 years ago this really be a bruh moment
.maybe hey pikmin is a prequel to pikmin 3 and depicts how the plasm wraith grown attached to olimar
Maybe but it is confirmed non cannon
not to ruin your thoughts or anything but it isnt canon to the lore
As of Pikmin 3 Deluxe, this is no longer the case
I think hey Pikmin is meant to introduce new fans to the pikmin franchise so pikmin 4 will sell better
Samir Al Hindi I stinking knew it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree. Plus it's also a nice filler game for the gap between Pikmin 3 and 4.
Pikmin 4 will do that job. Hey Pikmin is way too late in the 3DS's life cycle to make any meaningful sales impact, thus far the only region where it is doing very well SEEMS to be Japan. Pikmin 4, if on the Switch and interesting enough, will sell itself. I feel like Pikmin 3 was fully capable of that job but was limited by the Wii U's install base. If Pikmin 4 is exciting or interesting enough, by being a mainline new game on a successful piece of hardware (for the first time), it will do well. Hey Pikmin seems to be selling mainly to series fans, which is perfectly fine but not going to change sales of Pikmin 4.
DazzReviews I love Hey! Pikmin because it's my first Pikmin game.
i read this as hey! pikachu
Maybe all the gelatinous blob monsters in pikmin are all members of a extraterrestrial species that only wants to destroy everything.
(Something like the shroobs from Mario)
Insert unfunny Joke here
Waiiiit...
Someone else remembers and cares about them?
That *is* an interesting idea
This *could* mean that their Universe could be a parallel universe of Mario’s and the Shroobs are much less organised and mushroomy, instead being gooey
Insert unfunny Joke here maybe they are part of the wrath family because in pikmin 2 the water wrath body was in another dimension and in pikmin 3 the plasm wrath couldn't die. So maybe there another wrath like a parasitic wrath or something.
or Dark Matter from Kirby.
I thought the Blobs Were a hive mind of all the humans
Ooooh, I got to see myself in the Video! Regardless, Louie is actually mentioned a few times in the logs so this at least is after 2.
Aside from that, this new world that Olimar is on could possibly be of the Umibozu's creation. The Umibozu was capable of making monsters in the 3rd game. If we assume this is after the 3rd game, then we can say that it has reached a much stronger form, capable of creating so many hazards for Olimar. The Umibozu could possibly even taking Olimar's fears and capitalizing on it by turning them into larger versions. Like the Blowhog, Emperor Bulblax, and possibly the Bulborb. The Umibozu would clearly want Olimar to know that there is something to fear, which is why there are thorned vines of the Berserk Leech Hydroe just around. As for the fight itself, it attempts to capitalize on something entirely new, throwing something completely new and different at Olimar. The Hydroe/Umibozu held onto the ship part, knowing it was important and would keep Olimar there. As soon as it lost it, it felt immediate defeat and had given up, especially after Olimar could take down its greatest creation.
That's just my theory.
Nice theory!
Nice
What if it was the umibozu who was trying to contact Olimar? Some say that it made the planet. What if it made all of this in Olimar's mind to try and lure him back to the planet, it being so nice there, with almost no danger anymore??? It would make sense that the umibozu would try to keep him in this day dream. Who knows, it could be that this is what Olimar was dreaming while the umibozu was watching him in game three! Now there is something to think about!
What if the whole meteor never landed on pnf404. Instead a small piece got sent flying through space crashing onto this planet allowing the umibozu to have a hold on both planets and further plot olimar's demise. That's y the plasm wraith wasn't truly invincible, it's still incomplete.
That could it be
My theory on why the planet looks so much like PNF-404 and shares similar species, is that it reflects our real world and probable future: Earth becomes either inhabitable or extremely un-preferred. I believe that PNF-404 is Earth and that this new planet is, as you said yourself, Earth 2/New Earth. This not only explains the scenery but also the wildlife and the Pikmin. Now as for the Leech Hydro, I think it's not the Oumibozu, just an evolved form of a parasite. Nothing too groundbreaking. For where this game takes place in time, I believe that this takes place AFTER Pikmin 4. This would fix the Louie problem, as well as give them time to explain the origins of the SS Dolphin II and the jetpack. And finally, I think the White and Purple Pikmin being in the Onion is just a teaser for Pikmin 4, as if they were going to introduce something like that it would kinda be a waste if they were to show that off in a spin-off game on a handheld approaching it's end.
Yeah! That could it be!
LOUIE IS MENTIONED ONCE! (read crammed wraith log)
Agreed
Hear is one theory I have though of. The Umibozu may have power but it would be pointless to blindly search the stars without some idea of where to go so it borrowed the concept of scouting out planets from the Koppans and is searching where to find Olimar.
In pikmin 3 Olimar got into that gold box thing.
part of the Wraith whas inside Olimar when he got saved by the Hocotates.
When he crashed into the new planet, the umibozu got out of Olimar to become stronger (maybe he can only evolve with Oxegen.)
It develops to the not that strong form at the end of Hey pikmin.
Oxygen*.
*the Koppaites
There were Purple Onions at the end of Pikmin 1, so them actually appearing in 4 is a possibility.
There were three games since Pikmin 1 and we still don't have all the colors shown in the ending.
Lets pray for miyamoto so we could get white (and purple...(since i dont like purple pikmin that much since the are OP)) onions
@@aRandomwacko they may be op but its better than having them as completely useless and just for picking up heavy items
Hey, a few years late. But the onion in Hey Pikmin has white and purple in it, despite them not appearing in the game. Therefore, meaning they have their own confirmed onions.
@@aRandomwacko I'd love that, but I'm calling it right now we're probably going to have two new Pikmin types, and not get to use rocks, winged, purple, and white Pikmin in the main story. Nintendo (and the Pikmin games especially) like to repeat themselves a lot...
...that and having more than all 7 pikmin types, plus another 2 new ones (in other words, 9) would not divide easily with 100. The only way they could make that work is if they had 3 new types and had 10...
it could be smaller due to burning up most of itself upon entry of a new planet?
That makes plenty of sense!
Maybe it used itself to fire a chunk into space
that doesn't explain the pikmin's sizes though
Did the game specifically link Louie to the falling object at the end of Pikmin 3? I was under the impression that he either escaped before the ship took off, or stayed behind on purpose, but maybe I missed something. To me, the game was more likely setting up for someone entirely new.
I assumed it was just teasing for a possible future game, or alternatively just leaving it open to let the players know that there's always gonna be more adventures (whether or not they ever made another game).
If it is the umibozu, it could be the space travel that severely weakened it and made it shrink. Space travel is hard.
Also maybe the leech Hydra is a small piece of the meteor olimar hit in pikmin 1 but instead of landing on pnf-404 like the other meteor chunks it landed on that planet, which would explain why it hasn't evolved like the other on pnf-404.
9:25 hey, who’s to say that it wasn’t the whole thing and was only a fragment of it
I just realized that the onions from pikmin somehow remind me of Tyrannid dropships from warhammer, and taking into acount that they are cannonically spacefaring and have shown up, alongside other creatures they have encountered before, on other planets, and come in many different species and also are created by absorbing biomass into a seperate structure, yeah, pikmin are just friendly Plant-Tyrannids
The Pikmin aren't Illusions because this version of the umibozu does not have enough strength to create illusions because it's only an infant
The lore is strong with this franchise
Hey Dazz, I'm sorry for what i did a couple weeks ago and that i'll awlays watch your videos no matter what. Hope we can earn our friendship back! [p.s. i never stoped watching you pikmin 2 episodes and i loved them!]
My mini theory is that the hydroe is a part of the umibosu, like a minion that's also a part of it. When you defeat plasm wraith it's remains slithers away. it is unknown how he got back to full size before olimar and co. Left the planet. Maybe the plasm wraith didn't regenerate fully and what was left became the hydroe...
I think that Hey Pikmin is a different time line for the rest of the franchise. For instance the time line where you barely manage to get the minimum number of parts. Olimar probably went and got a new ship instead of repaying hocotate freights debt.
Maybe while going through space it lost most of its parts from maybe leaving/entering the atmosphere and from meteors
Or
It created a meteor that olimar has potential to crash in to and in that meteor there's a small bit inside it
Or
it made multiple meteors then the rest of the meteors came down and made more illusions explaining why the objects look like they were created lately and why the bosses are bigger
Here is my idea for pikmin 3: The Umibozu has become a godlike entity and is threatening to flood PNF-404 and wipe out almost all living things, So Olimar, Alph and Brittany return to the planet and try to bring any living things they can manage to salvage back to their home planets. Instead of killing enemies, they will just weaken them and bring them back so that they don't go extinct. When they try to leave the planet, (because the flood is beginning), the Umibozu strikes and a huge battle against it begins. A more intense version of the chase with the plasm wraith occurs where you need to outrun a large wave and eliminate obstacles in your path. Once the wave crashes down, The Umibozu will begin attacking you from above and throwing down many elemental hazards that you must avoid. After It is done attacking, It will come down to the surface and fight you. You need to weaken it by launching pikmin into it's core whenever it exposes it, and once it is weakened enough it will temporarily subside, giving you a chance to escape back into the ship and go home.
There's an enemy called the Crammed Wraith.
And it only appears (twice) in one level; Echo Caverns (3-B).
Echo Cavern has a huge emphasis on Bomb Rocks.
The enemy itself resembles the Water Wraith, except purple, more solid and looks like a hermit crab, complete with stone shell.
It's Log Entry mentions Louie, as well.
Wait are you talking obout the world 3 boss?
maybe it was the LITERAL GIANT PIECE OF METAL CRASHING AT FULL SPEED FROM THE SKY that tore it apart and shooting away the pieces and then it got mad after getting so close to final form and then getting set back to step 1 of it’s plan
So I just realized something recently about the White and Purple Pikmin.
Basically... They were extinct. Completely gone. You can only get them from Candypop buds.
The traits of Purple and White Pikmin are 100% survival based.
Now I'm positive that they have Onions now simply because of what Olimar did. He literally brought an extinct Species back to life, and with the same training the original 3 got in the first game.
A golden chicken wing is a great way to describe the Plasm Wraith
wait. if pikmin takes place on earth far in the future. WHAT IF THE EVOLUTIONS OF HUMANS ARE NOT KOPPAITES AND HOCOTATIONS BUT HAVE BEEN THE PIKMIN ALL ALONG?!
I think i already saw a theory about pikmin being hyper evolved humans
I was about to say that it was the bite Louie took out of the water wraith, but it isn't the same planet...
Hey Dazz What About the pikmin (we aren't in PNF-404)
Frank Herrero thats what im wondering
Maby the umibozu has that other piece of itself on another planet
I think the game takes place between pikmin 2 and 3 because the president isn't in debt again ( at least not until olimars returns at the end of hey! pikimin) and also before the koppites arrive at pnf-404 olimars seem to have a log with the new onions on it. Maybe he encountered the new onions in hey pikmin and made a log on them before heading to pnf-404.
DAZZ! What if the umibozu got on the planet because one of the asteroid peices got pushed in the other planets direction and that is just part of the original umibozu! Hope u see this!
Ryan Lopez nice theory
Actually HEY PIKMIN does fit after pikmin 3 (for example in pikmin 3 where Olimar and Louie were or at least Olimar and Louie were together or saved or MISSION MODE) :D
id like to think the umibozu is an omni-present being, and manipulates events for olimar to keep coming back to whatever it currently deems its physical embodiment, and it manipulates events to become more and more powerful each time he escapes
I have this weird memory when I was playing pikmin 3 I found a purple onion but when I used yellow pikmin to get the onion down I could not manage, now I think this was a dream but it feels so real I maybe found a Easter egg but forgot it but it is most likely a dream
So this is only from smash i found it, but in Distant planet stage while i was played i found a green pellet. It wasnt a dream since it is still in my switch photos. It might be a small teaser for pikmin 4. Maybe a grass pikmin?
The green pellet might be a visual glitch
Here's another thing
*how did the onion even head to another planet?*
It NEVER heads out of the planets atmosphere
It's fun to think that Hey! Pikmin was just a dream.
Surely a fate worthy of such an abstract break from the norm.
1:42
*its staring into my soul...*
I think this is after Pikmin 4 because the S. S. Dolphin II was seems to be saved since Olimar does have it.
I think Hey! Pikmin is a reboot.
It starts the same as Pikmin 1.
Olimar's knowledge on the Fiery Blowhog makes no sense regardless of this title's placement in the series, looking at his logs:
Pikmin 1: Olimar knows the basics on how it shoots fire
Pikmin 2: Olimar has expanded his knowledge and has scientific details on how it works.
Hey! Pikmin: Olimar doesn't know how it shoots fire and explains that it took him and his ship awhile to figure out.
The Hey! Pikmin's Fiery Blowhog seems bigger and stronger than the common Fiery Blowhogs Olimar dealt with in Pikmin 1 and 2. Maybe it's biology worked differently than the Pikmin 1 and 2's version, which is why Olimar seemed act like he was dealing with something different when he was examining it.
I kind of hope it isn't a meant to be reboot. They spent a whole of three games building up the Pikmin world and characters, and had an insteresting cliffhanger with the end of Pikmin 3 showing something crashing to the planet's surface. I don't see why they'd want to go back to square one when what they have so far is pretty well done. However, I do hope they keep some of the new enemies introduced in Hey! Pikmin. It'd be awesome to see them all super detailed-looking in Pikmin 4.
What about pikmin 3?
@@emperorskulls agreed
@@That_One_Xatu i would like to fight mockiwies and fiery blowlets in pikmin 4
Honestly its a little ridiculous if you think about it... surely there's no way Hey Pikmin is canon to the main timeline, right? Its confirmed to be a different planet that has earth-like qualities and confirmed human life at some point, that ALSO has Pikmin and ALSO has a ton of the same species that appeared on PNF-404... its kinda crazy. That's way too many coincidences to make sense.
And if it IS canon, it opens up a whole can of worms. Like, all the human stuff still mostly intact implies humans died off recently... but the enemies and the Pikmin themselves would take hundreds or millions of years to evolve into what they are now, unless they existed at the same time as the humans did, and were brought to the second planet with the humans. And the odds of two separate planets having humans AND those creatures, but having no humans in site implies that SOMETHING happened to wipe out humans on both planets but still leaving the rest of the creatures alone (unless the humans are still alive in Hey Pikmin and we just never run into them... 🤔)
There's a lot to take in here...
It’s definitely an alternate timeline because olimar acts like he hasn’t met the pikmin
If they add a white onion and add emperor bulblax to the game as a major boss (not the sorry excuse for one like in pikmin 2), how many white pikmin would it take to kill him by poison damage only?
Maybe millions **grabs white pikmin to protect them** *AND DONT HURT MAH WITE BOIS!!!*
The good guy can split up in pikmin 3 in the boss fight or fights if you count the maze part as a separate part
While I'm personally going to consider Hey! Pikmin non-canon until proven otherwise, I definitely would be interested in seeing how it could fit within the same timeline as the other 3 games. As for the Umibozu, perhaps it knows that playing the role of the big, tough enemy doesn't work, so it's opted instead to try a different approach. Maybe the Hydroes are seen by Olimar as docile because the Umibozu is trying to fool him into a sense of safety while it gathers up the strength to reach its final form?
I think Nintendo took "A million dollars but you are constantly being chased by an immortal snail that is trying to kill you" a bit too seriously
I always thought it was a baby Umibozu who just was scared of Olimar.
2:55 - idk about that. It may be confirmed, but it still reminds me of the side story: olimar's comeback
Edit: 6:58 the only thing that could possibly be... that... is most likely the plasm wraith. Sure, it's friendly to olimar and does not want him to leave... however... you can see it's anger once you not only save olimar but also leave with him. Also, it's obvious that the strange little creature was affected by the converter negatively due to the fact that... well... it's obvious that it tries to fight (or maybe control) olimar himself. Of course, it changes completely when the converter is removed. And now, in pikmin 4, we see , what is presumably, the alternate timeline of olimar losing his life at the hands of either lack of oxygen or another creature. Turning into... that thing. He also finds moss in that same timeline. Some think this is an ordinary alternate timeline game (yes, they exist. Like TLOZ:BOTW and HW:AOC. As well as the alternate timelines of TLOZ including the defeated hero, the adult, and the young timelines.) however, as crazy as this sounds, some believe the plasm wraith is making multiple different timelines all so it can get it's "glittery and gooey head tendrils" on olimar once again. Crazy, yet interesting.
I imagine that if the little guy is the original umibozu, it’s just a small piece. It’s not impossible for it to be split up yet still alive, as we see with it slowly gaining it’s strength as the meteor bits fall to the planet. Maybe it just took a piece of itself off to try and get Olimar off world.
But I’m not sure it really is an umibozu, as every other depiction is bald or just a rounded off head, but this guy has a little antenna, maybe to hint that this isn’t actually the umibozu and is instead just a blob creature.
My theory: Hey! Pikmin is simply the pikmin mirror universe. The Hydroe is the mirror version of Goolix/Wraiths/Umibozu. Also, white and purple onions didn't exist in Pikmin 2 because they're extremely fcking overpowered. Purples freeze an enemy as long as you keep throwing them *and* they do more damage, while whites are an instant-kill for most enemies that eat them. Imagine having a squad of 100 of one of those and hundreds more to spare. Just take whites only into a boss and it's a guaranteed win.
Maybe the leech hydroe is the umibozu and maybe it tried to move on from Olimar but then got hit by the ship piece and got mad. Then, when Olimar came, it found out Olimar's ship lost that piece, so he got mad at Olimar. Then, when it came out of the body, notice it jumps straight at Olimar. Then, when the piece came out it was calmer and also scared of Olimar when it had no protection, like with the water wraith.
9:00
All other forms have a tendency to start running away
My theory is that whatever the goolix/water wraith/plasm wraith is, it must be able to propagate. The thing from hey pikmin is the water wraith’s child.
It's possible that the umibozu evolved into a parasitic entity, like the bulbmin, and took over the mind of the final boss, while it's aggression comes from the sparklium
I think it *is* the Umibōzu, it just didn’t have time to get ready for Olimar
Maybe the plasm wraith can spit a very weak vessel through space as it is not powerful enough to travel as full power
Umibozu can shapeship into anything like hydra
I Think the little guy is a Wraith as in pikmin 2 (water wraith) and in pikmin 3 (plasm wraith) / do you understand my THEORIE.
Maybe that little guy is just one of the Umibozu's minions?
3:39 Actually, Louie is mentioned in Crammed Wraith's log
Maybe in order to travel to space he has to get rid of a lot of material and that is the reason he is so small in another planet.
Maybe the umibozu had taken possession of a piece of animal dna (Assumingly a pikmin related one. Due to the shape and look.) Then it grew into its new form and taken possession of another creature to compromise the fact it has barely any power in its current form.
I think that this game is just in a separate universe not planet that is why pikmin can be in more then planet plus the monsters can be so big or... like you said at the end it's just a dream (I like that to)
Maybe the Umibozu launched a smaller copy of itself to the other planet because it did not want to leave pnf404 because olimar might come back
With pikmin 4 having the return of the waterwraith and the introduction of the foolix
I'm quite puzzled of what the hell happened to the plasm wraith (i'm going with the assumption that the game is indeed a sequel to 3 instead of a alternate pikmin 2)
Because the foolix is basically just goolix, but orange and with a different core
Did the plasm wraith devolve? Did it have offspring? Is the foolix an entirely new umibozu or is it a separate being altogether? It's name seems to sugest that it could be a mimic species or maybe a defeated form of the goolix family
I think that as it flew through space it lost its mass and became small again
What if the blob was from the outside gunk that was from olimar's ship or suit or previous ship? Whichever option, the gunk would have been from PNF 404 probably. It could be remains from the past blobs that combined itself to live again. In Pikmin 3 for example, the plasm wraith was stroking olimar's helmet (and basically consumed him) for quite some time. His suit most likely couldn't be 100% decontaminated, especially because the blobs are a foreign substance that hasn't been studied enough to have a disinfect method.
This is what happens when you don't wash your hands, kids.
PS:
P=planet
N=not
F=found
404
guys i got something, (long text) what if the plasam wraith's husband died and so it went to go look for another person, and at the end of
pikmin 3. when (they) escaped, when the plasam wraith waves its (ears?) at you, its like a "come back here!" or "why do you have to leave me??" wave. and i guess the plasam wraith called out its sons and daughters out then sended them all around the
galaxy. then you meet one of them here.
Well my theory starts at pikmin 1 sense the meteor splits into multiple pieces right? Well maybe earth 2 was nearby and a small piece of the meteor landed on earth 2 and sense there are multiple enmities similar to the umibózo maybe just maybe all of them are the same because water isn't solid it can separate so maybe the umibózo is trying to kill olimar in multiple ways while trying to gather back up into one
AT 2:19 I SAW PURPLE ON DA ONION!... I REALY wanted to help with dat
THE UMIBOZU GOES FROM GIANT GOLD MONSTER TO A LITTLE BLUE SQUSHY THING
I have another theory but about the pikmin, what if the reason why we see them on a different planet is because they flew there in there onion
I thought of that once
I think oilmar was going to find louie
I miss this man
This out off my birthday
That’s the hydroe something
I hope that in Hey Pikmin 2 the Umibozu will be a boss
My theory: of course that "Daydream" line so. the umibozu can be the little guy or.
this game is after the first game. because even know threes the onion dose not mean its connect because in pikmin 3 oilmar is not a playable character in pikmin 3 only in the bingo and mission mode stages so.
the little guy is the mind of the goolix with a little bit of that smile the little guy is born :edit: of coarse the ninth specter is or can be the unibozu
the thing that is on the video image is a leach hydro. the less powerful form of the berserk leach hydro.
I Believe Pikmin Were Actually The People Of The Planet. That One Connection Is The Bad Ending Of Pikmin 1.
1:46 Me and my friend going to ask my mom if he can sleep over.
pikmin 4 idea what if we're forced to stay on the planet during sunset and night
While it would be off it is possible and could lead to interesting mechanics
Perhaps shelter building and hiding could be a emphasis if we play as Louie then ... he wouldn't have a ship.so... yea just a idea though
But if this is a different planet then why do we solve pikmin? And all those other enemies but just bigger I don’t feel is equip the dance it’s like if we just had a giant octopus is on Mars or giant Rabbits on Jupiter
Maybe this game takes place before Pikmin 1in an alternate universe (which explains the dolphin). And the hydra is before the Goolix.
maybe the one you call golden chicken wing s lost some of its goo like slime which turned into the final boss of hey pikmin
I think it's level 2 canon... kinda. The creatures just exist on PNF-404 but all story elements are non-canon. Except, maybe the Hydro thing does exist with the same story purpose!?!?! Or, nothing in this exists in the main pikmin games. Or, it's a dream... why nintendo?
Goolix...Smokey prog...Water wraith...The titan dweevil...Mysterious life form...Plasm wraith and last but not least... The hydro!!! These are the putty/goo/plasma/blob/water/bacteria foes.
Maybe the two orbs in the Goolix are what transformed into both of the Umibozus? (Sorry, I don't know how to spell them)
If olimar is still being chased then he must get Louie because he knows how to invest himself into the titan dweevils brain!!!
It took me 1.5 years to get to sector 7
He was dreaming this game. meanwhile he was un awake in pikmin 3.(mind blow)
hey pikmin is after pikmin 2 and before pikmin3
What if plasm wraith was the final boss in hey pikmin and actually was still attached to olimar and had felt bad for attacking olimar so it ran away since it had become very small it might have been able to find a way to hunt things so it started taking nutrients out of the plants to remake it self
Another thing about the loui theory (sorry if I misspelled it) maybe this is in a alternate timeline where pikmen 3 + hey! Pikmen take place BEFORE pikmen 2 and loui (sorry if I misspelled it again) does exist but maybe loui hasn't,t joined olimar
You know how the plasim wraith can only be attained by hitting its blobs what if it is part of the plasm wraith
