Glad someone agreed that the scene where Grolgungus had a realistically animated panic attack after killing a fiery blowhog should’ve won a game award.
The fact Grolgungus actually managed to kinda resist his absolute primal killing machine instincts this time shows that even horrible pikmin characters can go through the most incredible changes
I mean, I get _why_ Grolgungus was the protagonist, since he's the guy that finds Olimar's dead body in pikmin 1's bad ending, but that doesn't mean he isn't kind of a scumbag.
Grolgungus is my favorite character but I do think the extreme racism could’ve been kept in the drafts. It’s annoying how he went on a 2 hour long rant about koppaites taking our jobs after you rescue the koppaite scientist
5:16 That foghorn sound effect never fails to amuse me, and using it to accompany the Shearwig's comically bad attempts to attack the Yellow Pikmin (plus the final instance being louder) makes this joke my favourite part of the video.
Grolgungus is a great guy you take back what you said, when he said, "it's dandin' time" and dandoried all over the place I got up and started clapping, true cinema.
I KNOW this challenge was annoying since Grolgungus scolds you for losing pikmin to the weak enemies and sticks his tongue out while making fart sounds whenever you do
*Sees you post multiple videos roasting the ever living shit out of Pikmin 4's mechanics* "You know, I'm starting to get the feeling you don't like Pikmin 4"
You only need to defeat the fiery blowhog defending the second base in SST, all night missions for all unlocked bases become unlocked after beating the first two night missions in SST. The night mission with 2 luminol in SS should be accessible after the second mission, since it is the base buried in sand.
I, will not kill them, Befriend Olimar Be a good human Louie shakes my hand then Collin reveals his science lab den Collin reincarinated President She-eh-pherd, She-eh-eh-pherd Oatchi waits for me to come battle Won't give hurt, won't gi-ive hurt.
1:27 ah yes, the ymfah defense "oh no i didn't kill them, the allies i had summoned for the sole purpose of killing them killed them while i stood idly by and let them do it"
Note: you only needed to kill 1 enemy to unlock night missions; the game gives you access to other night missions after beating the second, which is locked behind the blowhog.
Everyone hates Grolgungus, but I think his total lack of situational awareness fits perfectly in Pikmin 4 in a strangely charming way. Sometimes the protagonist being a complete idiot is good for the game.
Grolgungus was fined for copyright infringement during his scamming days where he produced bootleg films with his friend Alkconstuss who later killed himself after the war. Grolgungus canonically had a pet rat.
14:25 is when i noticed you using the unused Earthbound track! I really like when content creators include tracks like that in their videos. I have been watching all your videos since about 2 months ago when they pop up in my recommended!
Can we talk about Grongulus' mind-blowing LGBTQ scene? Seeing one of the main heroes Let Guys Bury Toddlers in Quicksand was absolutely SHOCKING for an E-rated game and goes to show that Nintendo games can still explore very dark themes.
I’ve been doing a pretty hard challenge for pikmin 2 that I’m actually liking a lot. It’s a maximum percent run with now Flarlic, no oatchi riding or charge, no upgrades, no gear, no ice pikmin in combat, no growing new pikmin, deathless, and sprayless. It’s hard but a lot of fun
Grolgungus is honestly has terrible dialogue, like why did they make him go on a rant about invading poland and exterminating people he thought were inferior I honestly wouldn’t mind if they had him die in pikmin 5
It's strange that this was more difficult than your Pikmin 5 run, since Pikmin 5 is notorious for being the most difficult in the franchise, so much that they overcorrected and made Pikmin 7 even easier than Pikmin 4.
I truly don’t understand how the Pikmin AI got worse in this game, at least in Pikmin 1 they are predictably stupid so I can easily guess they’re gonna do the dumbest thing possible and plan for that, in 4 I swear they just do unpredictable things I’ve literally never seen in any of the other three games.
fun fact they changed the safe so it can't be brute forced in an update. even if you put in the right combo it doesn't unlock until you have all three cards anymore
I know you need to unlock the first two bases for night missions, but I’m pretty sure the rest unlock after those (if they’re unlocked during the day). I don’t think you needed to kill that Bulborb.
challenge idea: beat pikmin 4 but you can only have pikmin of a certain type if you already their onion, example: if you find stray rock pikmin you cant get them until you have the onion for rock pikmin
did you actually need both bases unlocked for the second required sun-speckled terrace night mission? only 2 of its 3 missions are required before it lets you do everything you have unlocked, though I've never not had all 4 bases in that area before getting to night missions. if not, that's 2 fewer kills
Flarlic is an interesting addition but I feel like it kind of removes or changes the whole concept of what pikmin 1 wanted to do. Imo flarlic should have been perhaps a hard mode exclusive same with 3 type limits. In a perfect world we got a pikmin 4 with pikmin 2 difficulty style dungeons. Caves with all types of hazards and it's up to you to optimize your team. The hard mode has flarlic lowering your squads numbers and power and adding a 3 type limit makes decisions harder. However as pikmin 4 has its dungeons only tailored to almost 3 types it makes strategy less involved. Imagine a dungeon with every hazard, only 3 types and your flarlic at the time only allowed 50 pikmin. Now the squad numbers and types matter alot more plus imo electricity should have never changed from instakill. So when I'm saying this stuff of an ideal pikmin 4 I'm taking that into account. Also imo I don't like oatchi, dude is cute asf but gameplay wise he reduces difficulty for like 75% of the game.
imonlyhereforpikmin i have good news...today is my birthday and i now finally have pikmin 3 deluxe. I've achieved all my goals in life and now IDK what to do besides play it and then hey pikmin and then 4
I will not stand for the Grolgungus hate anymore. This is slander. He is an extremely well developed character with multiple arcs that lasted the entire game. There is literally a secret cutscene that triggers if you go to Sun Speckled Terrace on day 72. Grolgungus will tell you his tragic backstory and it genuinely made me cry. His entire family was tragically murdered by the hands of a strange man that he describes as “Small, green, and Lithuanian .” This adds more depth to Grolgungus, as well as referencing Fiddlebert. Nintendo did an amazing job with Grolgungus, and if I catch you hating on him one more time I’m going to have a realistically animated panic attack.
So, there are 3 saves that are so obvious. The enemy in the olimar section doesn't count for your stats, so it doesn't count. And the 2 bulborbs just...don't need to be defeated.
Why the hell do you need unlock the extra landing spots for the night missions? The game flat out tells you that you don't need to move your base around during night missions so why even bother?
True or false: in pikmin 4 100 rock pikmin can kill a bug eyed crawmad by themselves (meaning without throwing them or whistling them back) and none will die if you charge them once
This video has three thumbnails. Which Pikmin enemy was on your thumbnail?
Unholy combination of moss and bulborb
Moss one
Freaky Moss saying "no kill"
(Idk why but i Saw the dubster enemy Spider once)
Olimar's oatchi, i consider him my friend
Bulborb
Glad someone agreed that the scene where Grolgungus had a realistically animated panic attack after killing a fiery blowhog should’ve won a game award.
They actually made a bold move and explicitly made it an unrealistic panic attack
as much as I love pikmin 4 it was really weird when Grolgungus started calling for Total Koppaite Extermination
The fact Grolgungus actually managed to kinda resist his absolute primal killing machine instincts this time shows that even horrible pikmin characters can go through the most incredible changes
so glad someone else also had the same issues with grolgungus, i couldnt find anything online it almost seemed like he was lost media
😱
AAAAAIIEEEE
Beating the game without killing an enemy is like trying to bake a cake without an oven
Using a blowtorch without burning any of it
I mean, I get _why_ Grolgungus was the protagonist, since he's the guy that finds Olimar's dead body in pikmin 1's bad ending, but that doesn't mean he isn't kind of a scumbag.
imonlyhereforpikmin has just dropped a new video, my child has never been left unattended faster, I guess you could say my love for him is LOST MEDIA
AAAAAAGHHH
Eat them
Grolgungus is my favorite character but I do think the extreme racism could’ve been kept in the drafts. It’s annoying how he went on a 2 hour long rant about koppaites taking our jobs after you rescue the koppaite scientist
The Pikmin 4 playthrough where Oatchi doesn’t bite, but can still hurt you in other ways
"We finally unlock Laurel" 😭😭
Dude Grolgungus was the highlight of Pikmin 4, you never knew if he was serious or not and that made his dialogue hilarious
5:16 That foghorn sound effect never fails to amuse me, and using it to accompany the Shearwig's comically bad attempts to attack the Yellow Pikmin (plus the final instance being louder) makes this joke my favourite part of the video.
Grolgungus is a great guy you take back what you said, when he said, "it's dandin' time" and dandoried all over the place I got up and started clapping, true cinema.
I KNEW I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO CALLED YONNY LAUREL
Grolgungus makes Louie look like a Volatile Dweevil
I KNOW this challenge was annoying since Grolgungus scolds you for losing pikmin to the weak enemies and sticks his tongue out while making fart sounds whenever you do
4:56 ... EMULATION?? DO YOU WANT MR SHIGERU TO BECOME LOST MEDIA
Fun Fact! Just like how Olimar and Louie are named after Mario and Luigi Grolgungus is named after Grum-Gear!
Weird, Grolgungus wasn't in my copy of the game. I think an update must have made him LOST MEDIA
he’s only playable if louie deems you worthy enough, this requires making at least half of his recipes in real life
*Sees you post multiple videos roasting the ever living shit out of Pikmin 4's mechanics*
"You know, I'm starting to get the feeling you don't like Pikmin 4"
This video has taught me that dingo actually does something in this game if youre completely stuck on a night mission somehow.
My world has been blown
Grolgungus is the new fiddlebert lol
i knew i subscribed for this poor man to replay through pikmin 4 instead of any other pikmin game.
it is genuinely impressive to make the ai worse in a sequel
I never expected a picture from Dan Vs. to be in a Pikmin video, but thanks for being a person of culture.
4:56 my man almost became one of nintendo's own pieces of lost media. thankfully the switch pro controller pulled through.
Calling Yonny Laurel gave me a stroke
You only need to defeat the fiery blowhog defending the second base in SST, all night missions for all unlocked bases become unlocked after beating the first two night missions in SST. The night mission with 2 luminol in SS should be accessible after the second mission, since it is the base buried in sand.
I'm a simple man. I see a Will Smith "It's rewind time" meme. I hit the like button and smash the bell.
"BULBORB LARVA SPOTTED, OATCHI GO!"
Pikmin 4 but we are agaist auto-locks purpose
RIP sacrificed Pikmin, your sacrifice will be remembered 🫡
Who?
I feel like the Pikmin AI in this game could've been better if they didn't only go on one set path
pikmin 4 makes me stop tikkling my pikkle and play pikmin 2 for tikkling material
Pikmin 4 but only 7 enemies become lost media
8:25 the neighbor kid asking to pet the Pitbull named 'Angel'
imonlyhereforpikmin on his way to torture himself:🏃🏃🏃🏃
Based fellow Grolgongus hater
I still don't understand why they decided to have HIM instead of Louie as Olimar's alternate skin in Smash Bros.
I, will not kill them,
Befriend Olimar
Be a good human
Louie shakes my hand then
Collin reveals his science lab den
Collin reincarinated President
She-eh-pherd, She-eh-eh-pherd
Oatchi waits for me to come battle
Won't give hurt, won't gi-ive hurt.
1:27
ah yes, the ymfah defense
"oh no i didn't kill them, the allies i had summoned for the sole purpose of killing them killed them while i stood idly by and let them do it"
New rule that would make your life easier:
You can only kill enemies if your forced too
DINGO ACTUALLY DOES SOMETHING?????
why does every pikmin 4 challenge stop at the fake ending? there are still two areas left before the game actually ends
because oatchi sucks
“The Grolgungus Saga”
Note: you only needed to kill 1 enemy to unlock night missions; the game gives you access to other night missions after beating the second, which is locked behind the blowhog.
Basically we learn that Pikmin 4 devs hate wildlife

What about doing the second part of the game too ? Just to see how far you can go...

Na, pikmin Ai in 1 is still worst.
no enemies became LOST MEDIA in this run
fun fact they changed the safe so it can't be brute forced in an update. even if you put in the right combo it doesn't unlock until you have all three cards anymore
I'm only here for pikmin using press start is something I never thought he would do
15:12 fiddlbert
Giant's hearth has become LOST MEDIA
Youve helped me really enjoy pikmin again. You always make me laugh every video
11:16 RHYTHM HEAVEN MENTIONED 🗣🗣🗣🗣
Just realised Akrillic from Plok is used in this video, ultra based
The hardest challenge run I've tried is to beat Pikmin 4 without comparing it to previous Pikmin games.
Since enemies never respawn in this game this challenge is preventing then from becoming lost media
has there been any mods for 4 to remove auto lock on like completely yet
Pikmin 4 but… some people become Lost Media
I know you need to unlock the first two bases for night missions, but I’m pretty sure the rest unlock after those (if they’re unlocked during the day). I don’t think you needed to kill that Bulborb.
My guy Aostrele really likes this video
@@MillsMiles. imonlyhereforpikmintism
Grolgungus my beloved
Grolgungus is NOT the new lost media
challenge idea: beat pikmin 4 but you can only have pikmin of a certain type if you already their onion, example: if you find stray rock pikmin you cant get them until you have the onion for rock pikmin
Pikmin 4 but Pikmin have friendly fire and can hurt you when they come back to you
did you actually need both bases unlocked for the second required sun-speckled terrace night mission? only 2 of its 3 missions are required before it lets you do everything you have unlocked, though I've never not had all 4 bases in that area before getting to night missions. if not, that's 2 fewer kills

Like and subscribe to see Oatchi and the Pik Mins munt more enemies
The dwarf bulborb and the bulborb in SST are not required to kill, just the blowhog lol
imonlyhereforpikmin i have good news...today is my birthday and i now finally have pikmin 3 deluxe. I've achieved all my goals in life and now IDK what to do besides play it and then hey pikmin and then 4
Honestly, doing this challenge without any Pikmin losses isn't that much harder since you can just use Oatchi to carry most items.
You can't even try to do this in Pikmin 1 or 3 cuz you're required to kill enemies to beat the game.
5:19 I feel bad for those poor shearwigs 😢
So Pikman 4 is coal? potentially even brimstone?
My lawyer has advised me not to speak on the topi cof "Lost Media" in this context

Grolgungus was a dogshit character in the story, but his twin brother Keith was a really cool character
So, there are 3 saves that are so obvious. The enemy in the olimar section doesn't count for your stats, so it doesn't count. And the 2 bulborbs just...don't need to be defeated.
Should i be pacifist?
or should i use my fists?
Could you continue this through to the second credits (rescueing louie)
Who will I choose to kill and who will I save?
Who will I choose to kill and who will I save?
(The Neutral Run)
You're only here for pikmin
Grolgungus must be...LOST MEDIA
AUUGGHHHHHH
What happened to the previous thumbnail? I liked it. And Grolgungus is vital to the series, moreso than Fiddlebert.
Do a Grolgungus lore video
Why the hell do you need unlock the extra landing spots for the night missions? The game flat out tells you that you don't need to move your base around during night missions so why even bother?
10:45 you earnd my sub just for this
True or false: in pikmin 4 100 rock pikmin can kill a bug eyed crawmad by themselves (meaning without throwing them or whistling them back) and none will die if you charge them once
Now kill every enemy
