*whistles* this is really awesome! The people who create Pikmin should definitely read this story! I wish that they could implement these pikmin into their next game!

How about rainbow or gold pikmin?

These ideas are actually really good, much better than others I've seen. Just saying. You have a talent in this area xD

Would you mind if I used one or more of your pikmin colours in my fanfic? Of course, full credit will be given.

I look forward to both a response and the next chapter of this)

Nice idea, the pinks don't seem overpowered and yet add a new element to the game with the ability to create bridges and perhaps other neat contraptions. Also allows the idea of some spider like enemies, which would be cool to see.

Great work!

This is pretty damn good! Only question: when will you have Olimar discover a parasitic Pikmin?

Oh, my! an extremely useful and creative Pikmin idea! I really enjoy this one! If Nintendo makes a Pikmin 4 (Pikmin 3 in already in development) and a Black Species hasn't been created yet, I'd simply be delighted that this idea be used! Very, very well thought out!

What happens if, say, a Blue or Yellow Pikmin goes after the berries? ...Incidentally, neat idea with the Black Pikmin, having Heliophobes. In terms of gameplay, though, I can see it being a bit annoying having to build up their numbers in each area due to the immobility of their onions. Still, it's a decent balancing thing, and in fanfiction it could be neat if, say, a nighttime scenario was introduced.

These guys are good, but I have to say... they need something. Their powers now are too specific, too "one shot and never use them again". I can't offer much here, but I figured I would just say that. Maybe make them able to climb? Long/thin, plus intelligent monkey.)

Finally, an idea I have NO complaints with. :P I really like this, it's a nice break from the usual.

My more recent green pikmin ideas have also featured an enlarged leaf size, as a note of interest. I was torn between that and the flying squirrel look, but I figured that wouldn't look right on a creature with such stubby limbs. So bigger leaf it was.

I like this idea a lot actually. This would seem to indicate that Pikmin and Berrywort plants are related. O.o Nice concept.
For this though, does it matter what Onion it goes to? If blues carry it to the blue onion, does it come out differently? Or is it just a berry plant for each of these, and the onion doesn't matter?

Yo. I'm gonna spam your inbox with reviews probably.
Eh. Black pikmin. How I hate them so.

First off: making them fear sunlight blah blah, everyone does that. The issue here is the fact that, in Pikmin 2, you get an upgrade that is directly stated to be an artificial sun. So their use in caves would be... bleh. Radiation is not a bad idea necessarily, but I don't think it should insta-kill and definitely should not be indestructible. Making blacks immune to radiation and mostly immune to explosions is stacking too many powers on one pikmin type, especially given how Blacks have no attachment to the fire element. In all honesty, Reds should have the 50/50 resistance, since they are fire based and immune to explosions in Super Smash Bros. Radiation could work for Blacks, though it could use some tweaking. Perhaps radiation would work more like a mutagen that results in death. Although it would then be debatable as to wether or not Black pikmin should be able to heal them in some perhaps Blacks give off radiation? But that would be too similar to whites. Unless it merely weakened enemies and reversed the harmful effects of radiation to pikmin?

Smart pikmin would be lovely. I hate it when they all run after a long-legs feet when they should know that they'll just get squashed.
Brown pikmin should be next :P

This is pretty good! You should write a fanfic with these types!)

Finally, a green Pikmin that isn't immune to acid. So many people use acid as a hazard, but it's just like you said, it's simply a rehash of water. I like the idea of the Pikmin being acidic instead.

Cool...
Of course, I don't need to borrow this idea, because I've already got green pikmin in my story! I still like the idea though.
