Can You Beat Pikmin 2 With Only White Pikmin?

You probably could have saved yourself a tremendous amount of suffering by not implementing the "only poison damage" rule, but the climax kind of makes it worth it. For me watching this, I mean, not for you, you experienced torment beyond words.

...yeahhhhh, after the amount of suffering you underwent to make this work, I think I can let this one slide. This time.

I hate the fact that you chose to only defeat enemy with the poison- THESE LITTLE GUY DESERVE MORE LOVE

If Louie had been left down in that cave I feel like it would have made the lives of the protagonists in the next two games far easier.

I don’t know if you find this out later in the video, but the essential treasures reduce their weight if you don’t have enough Pikmin to carry them. So if you had no reds in the final floor, the knapsack would need the exact number of Pikmin you have left.

Personally I think you shouldn't have added the extra challenge, and just allowed yourself to throw the white Pikmin at enemies but still an awesome video!

I actually gasped out loud when I saw each trip to the cave only gave you 22 pokos

The discord notification sound at 6:10 made me jump lol

The day 270 day counter had me dyingggg, I love that you're starting to turn the Pikmin challenges into a story/narrative at the same time, super entertaining!

I feel like the "extra challenge" here was a bit unnecessary and if had to be included, probably should've been trying to make enemies die via poisoning when possible and if it wasn't, resort to good ol swarming and throwing. Have a feeling though it was probably included though to just differentiate the video from the blue and purple pikmin videos, which admittedly is: fair enough.

lemons gotten to him hes started putting lore in the challenge runs

Do the run again except now you are a white Pikmin rights activist and you CAN NOT let any of them die.

With how often buried treasure came up in the other runs, i was wondering when a white only run would come up

I am a white pikmin.

Yay! White are my favorite Pikmin! They're so small and cute and Spicy and they got those little red eyes and go nyooom when carrying stuff

Despite everyone saying the extra challenge of not attacking is too much, I love the idea, but I agree that it just stalls your progress because of the stupid limitation of 40 pikmin, it would be a manageable challenge otherwise (well still a pain but way less backtracking) Anyway cool video as always!

I love how Press A is intentionally making the run harder for himself just to make the run funnier. He could have farmed an unlimited number of white pikmin from the Snagret Hole at any time (which is probably what he does later in the run to prepare for the Dream Den), and he probably could have gotten more pokos from the Bulblax Kingdom OR the Snagret Hole than he could in the Emergence Cave. But he made people think that going to the White Flower Garden over and over again was the only option because it was funnier. And he went through the extra torturous process of bringing a maximum of 34 white pikmin at a time into the Emergence Cave over and over again, getting only 68 pokos every OTHER day and taking 270 days to complete the run... JUST because it was funnier to do it that way.

I would call this a “Poison-only” run rather than a “White-only” run. A White-only run is less strict than what you chose to do.

I think not having the whites attack things took away more than it added. Since you can just infinitely grow whites, the only thing it did was arbitrarily lock off treasures that would have been perfectly obtainable with just whites. They're already the weakest attackers (tied with blues, yellows, and bulbmin), so it's still a challenge to fight. Just on par with blues in that aspect.

I was sent by the Fire Bomb Academy to sub, for the pikmin and soulslike lovers must combine🎉
