@@pressaTD Since you get blues so much later in the run, perhaps try doing a low% run until you get to them, prioritizing parts that are clearly accessible for Blues, even if you don't have them. That way you can go back and see if all the parts are collectible by them. Otherwise its a "can I beat the last 50% of Pikmin using only blues", which isn't as challenging. Although that's probably already your plan, but just in case I wanted to mention that would be the most satisfying way of doing it. Just like how in this video I don't mind day 1 not using yellows because I know it could be done with them anyways.
5:41 Not once have I ever collected the Gravity Jumper by bringing blues around back. I always thought just throwing Pikmin up there was the intended way
This was insane! I watched Mr. Lemon's video and I thought it was a real shame that it seemed impossible, especially since even getting the 19 parts appeared to be EXTREMELY difficult. I'm so glad that you could help bring a conclusion to this tale.
I knew this was going to be a great video the moment he clipped out of bounds on day 2 instead of taking the intended route. Now that is how you properly break the game.
To reiterate what Meeo said, it's a shame you ran out of days because with yellow only, FT is near trivial. I was impressed that you actually got ADF since it is by far the hardest part for this run (2nd in red only). I'm glad you made this since I was disappointed by the Backlogs video, I guess they weren't aware of my/ the strats.
I know I was a little disappointed not getting to try the final trial but I was just happy to get all the mandatory parts. And yeah ADF was super intimidating, I was shocked I was actually able to get it, but it was all thanks to your strats lol
Press A in this video: "No offence Lemon, I'm a huge fan of your content I just wanted to try this run for myself ❤❤❤" Press A now: "I hate this man, I have dedicated my entire life to proving my superiority. I will not rest until he is in the ground."
I'm glad someone aware of the Red Pikmin Only Challenge tried this. The groundwork is all there, and it's even easier than Red Pikmin Only. It's super sad you ran out of days, even one day to spare would have been enough to collect every ship part!
I'm glad someone is aware of how L a take this is you said it yourself that reds only is possible which makes this is yellows possible a blatant ripoff with no real purpose to exist and therefore the creator of this video should therefore feel bad therefore.
lol I saw this in my recommendations and I thought "wait didn't I already see that video" 'cause I saw the backlogs one but this is still very cool, good job
I watched the backlogs video immediately after watching your least throws video and was silently screaming at the screen for lemon to watch your video and use your strats XD Haven't watched this vid yet but looking forward to it!
It’s so painful looking at this video after watching the no Pikmin run, this game has gone a long way, to the point where Olimar didn’t even need the damn carrots
Just a little detail i noticed. At 6:30 you used a blue pellet to do the job of the blue pikmin. In this run it was a yellow one. Continuing the "only yellow" theme of the run. Great Video. I enjoy every single one of them! Keep up the good work
You also don't have to nudge the Libra, if you just throw your Yellows to the middle platform before walking up. Cleaner movement would make FoH possible to clear in 2 days instead of 3, and about 4 years ago, Mokaygee found a glitch that allowed him to beat it in 1. That alone would allow for a 1 (or 2) day Final Trial. I imagine that better routing and better nudging would give you a handful more days in FN and DS. Definitely possible, but not easy. My question, is could you get the Anti-Dioxin Filter faster by pushing it to the Bombrocks?
I don't know if anyone else even noticed or if it's an accent thing or something but I kept getting distracted by the way he says k and g sounds. When he says take it sounds like tate, when he says breadbug it sounds like breadbu or breadbut, when he says wollywog it sounds like wollywod, when he says dioxin it sounds like diotsin, when he says fact it sounds like fat. I'm not trying to make fun and I'm still massively impressed by what he's done, I just kept losing focus when he said certain words
Great effort! Pikmin was my favorite game as a kid and I remember a lot of these glitches and shortcuts and nuances of the game, like how the ship parts will do the waypoint finding, but you introduced some new ones to me! My jaw dropped at your day 2 pellet pop trick 😂 My claim to fame is that I've beaten Pikmin 1-3 all with no-death runs multiple times out of habit I'm going to start working on my glitch moves, ill let you know when I manage 100% only yellows!
Well isn't this nust wonderful. Lemons Video made me dive back down the Pikmin rabbit hole finding your channel in the process. Now it comes full circle.😊
TheBacklogs is notoriously bad at actually executing pretty basic ideas. Not saying this is easy, but it seems that being ineffective is a recurring theme of his.
That thumbnail is hilarious and i have no idea why Just the caption "it's way harder than you think" Then you peer down just to see Olimar staring at you with an entourage of yellow pikmin in toll
This game is hard enough, doing it with only yellow pikmin seems brutal, I'm amazed people have managed to do this, even though i haven't played this game for a long time, i remember how brutally difficult the game became in the end game, especially when going for 100%.
I’ve been attempting this challenge and you made the Libra a little harder than it needed to be. If you throw the yellows up before clipping on top of the wall you can just throw them onto the part.
25:08 whoa interesting. I wonder if this is a safeguard to prevent one of those things from shaking a bunch of non-Blue Pikmin out into a body of water irretrievably.
Damn, now I learned the intended way to get the Gravity Junper at the Forest Navel, I always questioned myself as a kid what was the purpose of that 2nd bridge.
the tragic part about this vid is the final trial is extremely easy with only yellows but nigh-impossible with only blues or reds (requires insane bomb rock placement rng)
No offense to the other guy, but this video is way, way better. It gets straight to the point, actually doesn’t use reds after day 1, and actually respects my intelligence with the tone
Ok here’s an idea that would probably cause a lot of suffering: Beat Pikmin 1 with the Least throws possible while only using Yellow Pikmin, also you can’t use your whistle. It’s 3 challenges in 1 painful package.
Impressive! Curious to know if secret safe is possible. Pretty sure the reason red only for the final trial is impossible only because of the bomb rock wall.
i think constantly referencing another persons video, even happily and in good fun, severely detracts from your own playthrough and makes it seem that your not confidant you can make an entertaining half hour video. still watching, its a good time, but it gets grating
I have literally never used blue pikmin to get the gravity jumper. My brain never saw it as a possibility, I just always used yellows. And only used the back bridge to get bombs. How on earth did I never realize that you can get it with blues?
TH-cam offered me a choice. I was given three buttons to choose from. One red, one blue, one green. I was then given a selection of videos based on that choise. I chose green. It gave me a video about yellow. TH-cam at its finest.
Heya! Lemon mentioned in a recent community post that he wants to get in contact with you. I think he wants to talk about plans for a Pikmin themed collab or something.

So we know that only Red Pikmin is possible, and we know that only Yellow Pikmin are possible.
Now we need to see if only Blue Pikmin are possible.

pretty cool but personally i think itd wouldve been easier if you used reds and blues too
🤔
And when i played an Ike only run in path of radiance would be easier just using the other characters in the ike only run right?

Did you even read the title the goal is to not use blues and reds you Italian

Subbed!
Let there be more pikmin rivalry videos!!
7:09 Ive played pikmin several times and never seen a part land like that. It's trippy to see the pikmin carrying it like that lmao
The Libra loves to land crooked even when I'm playing normally.
Man, olimar's going to he needing that message machine for weeks with how much his back must hurt from laying down and getting up...

100% planned
Couldn't you bring the zirconium rotor to the river with pikmin and save some time? Idk if that would be enough time, but I think 30 parts is doable!
…omg I’m so dumb, you could totally do that. It didn’t even cross my mine lol

That. Relative ease. Clip from dk64 honestly got me
its nice seeing the different videos on peoples attempt to beat pikmin with only a certain color came from watching backlogs to mokaygee to now you
im pretty sure lemon's challenge run is what put pikmin challenge runs like yours in my recommendations, glad for it
You show an impressive amount of ingenuity. Well done.
Congrats man! Your perseverance rewarded you with a new sub! I love Pikmin ❤
somehow misread the title as "one yellow pikmin", and thought this was a joke video lmao
nice run tho
Welcome to the firebomb academy, Press A, make good use of your new scholarship
This was awesome
I’m excited to watch your other pikmin videos :)
5:03 I thought about the dk rap immediately and was laughing so hard when you followed up with my mind
3:35 i always assumed that you were SUPPOSED to move the box without blues
Yeah I always thought the water there was more so to force you to put pikmin on top of the box and then direct them to the back of it from the water.
I love watching people push a game's logic to the absolute limit
Loved how you got the obscure Yellimar for the thumbnail
Ha, I also saw the Backlogs video and was sure you could do better. Excited to see how you did.
That thumbnail is hilarious and i have no idea why
Just the caption "it's way harder than you think"
Then you peer down just to see Olimar staring at you with an entourage of yellow pikmin in toll
couldn’t you throw pikmin with bomb rocks onto the island for the positron generator and then throw it at the pearly clam clamp
That sounds, exactly as hard as I think, actually. Well done lol.
Great video man these pikmin challenges are great
This game is hard enough, doing it with only yellow pikmin seems brutal, I'm amazed people have managed to do this, even though i haven't played this game for a long time, i remember how brutally difficult the game became in the end game, especially when going for 100%.

Hi, love your videos!!!
the tragic part about this vid is the final trial is extremely easy with only yellows
but nigh-impossible with only blues or reds (requires insane bomb rock placement rng)
I just watched Backlogs video yesterday lol. Hopefully he isn't punching the air after looking at this
Considering how insane some of the nudges are and how arcane the knowledge for the waypoint reset is I don't think he should blame himself for jt
To truly say you beat Pikmin 1 with only Yellows, there might be a mod that makes you find Yellows first, like in Pikmin 251.
I never thought that Max% Yellow would be a speedrun category, but I guess it is now!
Another enjoyable video!
That skittering bug pushed that part like it was nothing!
No offense to the other guy, but this video is way, way better. It gets straight to the point, actually doesn’t use reds after day 1, and actually respects my intelligence with the tone

Beat Pikmin 1 with the Least throws possible while only using Yellow Pikmin, also you can’t use your whistle. It’s 3 challenges in 1 painful package.
I've never pushed that box the correct way i always assumed yellows was the intentional way
If you actually want us to go check out the other channels/sources please update your video description
Seeing how far you got, I'm 100% positive you could "easily" get all 30 parts before the days were up.
29:01 nah the blank stare like “L”
The Ionian jets aren’t “heavy” the hitbox of the top cone part doesn’t react to Olimar, so he gets stuck and doesn’t move it very easily
CLIPPING TO GET THE YELLOWS WAS WILD!
Impressive! Curious to know if secret safe is possible. Pretty sure the reason red only for the final trial is impossible only because of the bomb rock wall.
Pretty sure it is doable, I know on the wii version you can throw yellows over the rusted wall right on the box.
5:01 made my day, thank you so much
Ah, Lemon won't be upset. This is what the challenge community is about 😊
now we need a yellow pikmin only speed run category
How kind of press a to shout out such a small and niche youtuber such as backlogs
I'd love to see it TAS'd to see how optimised it can get. All parts seems more than possible
i think constantly referencing another persons video, even happily and in good fun, severely detracts from your own playthrough and makes it seem that your not confidant you can make an entertaining half hour video. still watching, its a good time, but it gets grating

Pre-video prediction: no, because Chronos Reactor
Wait you’re supposed to use BLUES to move that box on the forest of hope???
…whoops.
Well, whaddaya know? Olimar actually took this challenge lying down!
And thus was the last time A was ever kind to Lemon lol
you definitely could have gotten all 30 parts!

6:30 you can just dismiss the pikmin by the geyser in the water, some will attack it before they start to drown
