Title: Enemy Defector Spotted in Pikmin 2
Post by: Jonnyboy117 on June 01, 2004, 05:58:05 PM

Well, well, look at this little guy.

Famitu's website has published the above screenshot from Pikmin 2, clearly showing one of the game's enemies with a Pikmin-like leaf growing from its head.  Though we are waiting for a detailed translation, the surrounding text makes it clear that this creature is friendly and can be used to carry items and attack enemies, just like a Pikmin.  We'll update this article once we know more about how to acquire this most unusual companion.

Personaly I think this is very cool, I just hope you don't have to go around trying to convert all the monster and log them in some book. ( ala PokéMon)

I've seen groups of them in some of the videos I d/l-ed and I was waiting to hear what was going on with that. THX for at least acknowledging this. I wondered why no one mentioned it before.

If you don't want to know about games before they come out, you probably shouldn't be reading a site like PGC.  That's what we do.

The picture is too small for me to translate effectively, but here's the translation of the caption of that picture on the Famitsu site:

"A small `chappi' approaches.  Mingling with the Pikmins, it offers to work with them."

Or something along those lines.

Tomorrow I'll try to blow up the picture and translate the in-game text.
