      For normal runs, sure, pikmin is way easier, but the thing about darksouls is you can (in theory) beat it with nothing without making too many changes to your strategy, as the game is designed to take different builds into account, while pikmin expects you to do certain things like use all pikmin and actually collect resources. In a way, while I can't speak for difficulty, I think pikmulin is more likely to make you stuck, and that knowledge alone can make attempts feel pointless.

So if there is a version of the boss that is difficult, it has to be the Wii U Version.

    Tbh, Rock Pikmin are probably my favorite Pikmin type in the series, followed closely by White Pikmin.
    Sure, they can't latch on like other Pikmin, so don't have as good sustained damage (especially compared to Reds), but the ability to push out a ton of burst damage in a short amount of time (oftentimes before an enemy can even react) is absolutely invaluable, and I played heavily into this in my playthrough.
    Plus, the ability to throw a couple at some Wollywogs and not worry about them while you do other stuff is a very nice bonus!

    Short answer: no, mainly because pikmin 3 is a far more scripted and linear game than 1 or 2, you have to take at minimum 7 days to complete the game (day 1 being alph’s tutorial segment, day 2 being garden of hope, day 3 being distant tundra, day 4 being tropical wilds, day 5 being twilight river, day 6 being garden of hope again for the quaggled mireclops, and day 7 for formidable oak)

    I actually never knew the Plasma Wraith would use its elemental attacks before the fight if it didn't think it could get away, that was so cool to learn. I guess when I played all those years ago either it never went for it thanks to me usually always having a mix of every Pikmin type with me, or maybe I just got lucky to never have to deal with it. ...Or maybe I just forgot, that may also be possible. Still so cool to be learning new things about the first Pikmin game I ever played all these years later!

    This video made me want to try this but on Ultra spicy difficulty on the Deluxe version of Pikmin 3. The major difference being you only get half of the juice from fruit you would normally get, and you can only have 60 Pikmin of the field.
    I've gotten to the part where I've saved Louie, but something has happened that I've never seen before. The problem is I don't have any juice left, not because I'm going to die, but because there is no juice for Louie to steal.
    The game won't progress until Louie has juice to steal. But you hardly get any juice on Ultra Spicy and I can't seem to get enough. Though with better routing, I might be able to do it.
    I've got a plan though. Go back to day 3, get 2 grapes, grab the half fruit in the crystal in the cave, and save Charlie. Day 4, fight the boss and get most of the fruit it drops, get the grapes, and the half the star fruit that's hanging. I'm skipping the Bradey Long Legs because there's literally not enough time or Pikmin on the field to do either fight.
    I'll edit this comment if I ever get past this part.
    Update 1: I haven't saved Louie yet, but I'll have enough juice. I have two juices right now. Twilight River takes 2 days without glitches, and I can get one juice. Meaning by the end I'll have one juice left over which Louie should steal.
    Update 2: It is possible.
    Update 2.5: Okay, so heres what I did. On day 7 I clipped the Alph into the wall to get him on the other side the river, skipping needing to build the pot. I beat the Mirclops, grabbed the grapes and half a star fruit from the Clawmad.
    I then did the Formiddable Oak in two days.
    If you can do the Formiddable Oak in a single day, then it is absolutely possible without glitches.
    But Day 4 was major pain and this already took me long enough to do.
    Tldr: Yes this is possible on Ultra Spicy Difficulty.

    Now do it in ultra-spicy dificulty on the switch where the fruit give half juice.

    I feel like we just witnessed Lemon's villain arc begin. The channel will spiral into the deepest depths of Pikmin lore and strats possible. *goes to grab popcorn and settles in* This'll be good.

    I figured out the trick of this run from the title and knowing a bit about the game, and honestly, it's kind of an amazing idea for really giving Pikmin 3 a big boost of difficulty, which deals with a common criticism of the game overall. Awesome video and a lot of fun to watch.

    Hey Lemon, got an idea for you.
    So with every game, there comes a time where people make randomisers and from what ive seen, there are very few people that have done pikmin randomisers such as Prodigious SP, I think it would be pretty fun to see how you approach a randomiser
    I hope you read this Lemon!

  • @GamingEelektross
    @GamingEelektross 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    One thing for the final area I remember doing is using Winged Pikmin on Olimar and just looping Brittany around the start making the Plasm Wraith go in a full circle until the day ended or I cleared most of the puzzles for her to have a safe path to the exit.

    I have beaten this game so many times, but I had no idea that the Plasm Wraith could do it's elemental attacks before the actual fight. I always just have it and Brittany run circles around the first Bulborb room while I progress through the area. You just switch when she says it's getting close and move her a half circle around.

    One way I've found to get around having to deal with the baby phosbat things during the phosbat fight is to simply not light up any of the smaller bulbs. The eggs don't start shooting them out until the first bulb gets turned on, so no bulbs = no tiny bats
