Pikmin: Adventures on Another Earth

Sodo · Pikmin: Adventures on Another Earth

To play this, it's extremely simple. Each character starts with 10 Pikpiks, which work like currency. You are a Captain aboard a spaceship and land on an odd planet. On this new strange world, there are dangerous beasts about and allying yourself is necessary.

Alright, here's an example:

You see a small red figure (approximately 1/3 your size) walking about before you. Do you:

A) Attack it!
B) Observe it
C) Attempt to speak to it

There are many different possible outcomes to this. When someone wants to play, I'll begin. There can be multiple games going at once.

FishyFriend

okay. +

KillerSlime

i'll play!

in my oppinion, the product placement, while profitable, did strange things to the pikmin universe. now everyone seems to think it is earth... or another earth, or earth later, or whatever.

Sodo

OK, so you're both playing?

Alright, you both crashlanded on an odd looking planet. Your ship is down and communications are dead. After exploring a little, you find a small hole dug into the ground.

A) Enter the hole
B) Don't enter the hole
C) One or the other enter the hole

FishyFriend

Sodo

OK, Fishy jumps in the hole. Down there, Fishy, you can hardly see anything, and it smells quite bad. However, you do hear dripping in the distance.

A) Go towards it
B) Call for Slime
C) Do nothing

KillerSlime

FishyFriend

KillerSlime

Sodo

OK, so Slime is now in the hole too. You both approach the sound. Soon, the area dimly lights up, revealing a large pool of water... and a little figure. It looks something like this:

It squeaks at you

A) Attack it
B) Soothe it
C) Ignore it and continue

FishyFriend

A lol

KillerSlime

D) eat it? yum yum carrot-thingy. but it might be bad, as it is blue...
C, i shall try.

Sodo

While Fishy savagely throws the tiny creature around, Slime advances towards the pool. Unfortunately, you have angered the little blue ones, who jump out of the pool and angrily attack you both!

You are immediately swarmed!

Let's say that was a practice round... GAME RESTART

Fishy: You have crash-landed on this strange place in the middle of extremely tall grass blades. You hear some rustling coming from the left.

Sodo

Fishy: You see a large dog-like being. It's easily two times your size and has the biggest looking jaws you've ever seen. It looks like this:

What do you do?

A) Attack it, be brave!
B) Run!
C) Scream and run!

Slime: You make hand gestures towards the Pikmin, who begin to nod and embrace with you. You now control 10 Red Pikmin! As you smile with pleasure, you gasp in horror as you realize a creature (the one seen above) has been sleeping near you! It is snoring and your Pikmin look confused.

goombapatrol054

A) Jump in
B) Don't go in
C) Look in

Goomba: You have landed on a hill, intent on finding money to pay off your debt. You need approximately 500 Pikpik carrots... you have 10. You soon find yourself watching a group of red figures (pictured in the post I made at 9:15 AM) trying to beat down a wall.

KillerSlime

goombapatrol054

~Sylph~

I will c (which I am hoping will be all the easier with all the a going on)

KillerSlime

there are different situations for each poster. my A is different from Fishy's A.

Sodo

Fishy: You attack and wake an angry Bulbear, which swallows you whole. The others wake up and take part in the feast.

GAME OVER! Tell me when you want to start again.

Slime: You and your Pikmin swarm the creature. It manages to eat three of them, but it finally goes down. Surprisingly, the Pikmin pick it up and drag it somewhere. Following them, you find that they have a ship of their own! They drop the Bulbear, which jets up into the ship. You gain 20 Pikpik carrots and 13 Pikmin to make an even 20!

A) Go back to exploring
B) Get in their ship
C) Take the Pikmin to YOUR ship

Goomba: As you help the Pikmin beat down the wall, they are surprised that you helped and bring themselves into your service! You now have 10 red Pikmin. They squeak in excitement and point to the beyond, which reveals a small hole.

A) Jump in it
B) Don't go in
C) Lead the Pikmin back to your ship

Sodo

Foamy, I'll get yours up in a sec

Sylph, I can get one for you too if you want
Edit: Sylph: Yeah I would like one. I am guessing we cant all play along as a team?

goombapatrol054

Sodo

Goomba: I'll accept that. You throw the Pikmin down there and he squeaks in excitement.

A) Jump down alone
B) Jump down with all the Pikmin
C) Get the Pikmin out

or

D) Leave it there and go

goombapatrol054

i will B) jump down there with all the pikmin (mind you, i make sure that they all jump down first)

KillerSlime

Sodo

Goomba: You and your Pikmin jump down and not surprisingly, find ANOTHER group of Pikmin! These Pikmin are white, smaller, and have red eyes. The two groups embrace. You now have 20 red Pikmin and 15 white Pikmin. (The whites are pictured below)

Slime: You go back to exploring the new and strange planet. Soon, your Pikmin happen upon a wall. After a few minutes, you realize you can't break it down. However, you soon hear squeaks as another group of Pikmin appear! These ones are yellow and have big ears. They are carrying what appear to be big rocks. They set them down by the wall and run, as do you and your other Pikmin. Within seconds, the wall is gone from a mighty explosion! You now have 20 red Pikmin and 10 yellow Pikmin. In the distance you can see a hole.

A) Go into the new area, but not the hole
B) Go into the new area and enter the hole
C) Go back

Sodo

Sylph: Well, yeah, we could, but we would have to scrap the other stories.

FishyFriend

NOW

ll

Sodo

OK, Fishy, I love the fact that you like the game, but I think we should wait for the others to finish so Sylph could conduct some kind of order.

If you still wanna play, PM me

KillerSlime

A, for now. i think i will be able to enter later, if i examine it first, right?

foamy

when can i start? Very Sad

Sodo

Slime: Right. The hole doesn't seem to go very deep, but it's kind of dark. Suddenly, a giant Bulborb appears! He eats five of your red Pikmin!

A) Attack!
B) Run!
C) Jump in the hole!

KillerSlime

C. into the hole!

goombapatrol054

im ready when you are

~Sylph~

*waits, here forward quietly for a turn or adventure*

Sodo

Oi. If it's OK with Slime, we can scrap this and start a new one with EVERYBODY working as a team.

Is that OK with you Slime?

KillerSlime

yeahm there is a bulborb munching on my head, and this way people will work as a collective.

foamy

and then i can join? Unsure

FishyFriend

And can I play again?

KillerSlime

he did say everybody.

Sodo

OK. Who wants to play?

I'm guessing everyone, right?

Well, everyone starts with 10 Pikpik carrots. When you raise 1,000 you win!

=================================================
Hocotate Freight President has ordered that each of the top explorers (meaning you guys) explore and investigate the Pikmin planet. The first to bring 1,000 Pikpiks (or Pokos) will be awarded. First Place gains the title of 'Pikmin Pulitzer', while Second Place gains the title of 'Pikmin Pleaser'. Since everyone is working together, the competition will usually be tight.

You all land on this strange new planet, which is heavily forrested by giant grass blades. The clearing you all are in is mostly soil, with sun shining down on the area. However, red Pikmin await your arrival (Captain Olimar, the first explorer of the planet, made friends with the Pikmin). As you all off-board your ship, you see the Pikmin squealing at a wall to the north.

What will you do? (Since you all are working together, I will not give A B Cs anymore, but rather it be a TRUE choose your own adventure)

KillerSlime

i go out on a quest to find something. because the ship is boring.

goombapatrol054

ok, im going to discuss with the group

"hey, everyone, do you want to head northways?"

KillerSlime

North is a good direction. i've always liked it more than most others.

~Sylph~

I think we should go talk to the red pikimin, see what they are squealing at and where they think we might best find these Pikos we're looking for. I mean, they are the natives and presumably our friends, correct?

KillerSlime

or, they could attack you like the Mushroom Pikmin, that is not pleasant.

~Sylph~

But Captian Olimar managed to earn their friendship. It does seem like we'd have a better chance than the mushroom ones. And, I could go first, if they eat me, yall could run?

foamy

what ever happens im sticking right next to goomba!
"south seems better to me."
"south just fells better."

goombapatrol054

im going with sylph this time.

i mean, if we happen to encounter some enemies later, what good are we without troops?

i'll go first:

*i stoop down on my hands and knees and gently talk to the pikmin*

KillerSlime

i follow, and meanwhile turn my attention to the door. what is it made of?

Sodo

It turns out the Pikmin are squealing because BEHIND the wall is what is scaring them. You all see a large red Bulbear peeking in and biting at the wall. The group of 10 Pikmin aren't enough to break down the wall, but hey, why would they with a Bulbear on the other side?

You are now in control of 10 Pikmin.

Slime, as you examine the wall, you see a small decayed spot that the Bulbear is chewing at. Thanks to your observation of the wall, you can warn the others of the Bulbear nearly breaking through.

~Sylph~

At the very least I think we need to back away from the wall, like pronto. Good eyes Killer!

foamy

"can our space ship destroy they wall+monster?"
maybe there are more pikmen back there.
ooc-have you got my pm's sodo?! Unsure

!!!

>_<

Sodo

Yes, Foamy, I got your PMs. =)

And, no, your ship has no weapons.

FishyFriend

I suggest [we] and build a camp, barracks, market, town center, houses, ect.

KillerSlime

i suggest you need more people for that. right now, i think we should go avoid the wall very much. perhaps take the pikmin back to the ship?

~Sylph~

Couldnt we use the ship itsylph as a weapon to plow down both the wall and the BUlbear? Either way I say we head away from the wall and the ship seems like as good a dirrection away from the wall as any.

foamy

we could fly over the "wall" it's olny a wall right it has no roof. and we could land on the monster crushing it.

FishyFriend

if we crash into it, we'll break the ship./.. Surprised

KillerSlime

depends on the armor state... but yeah, we should hunt for a weapon like the Guard Satalite or Nova Blaster that you could never use in the game...

foamy

~Sylph~

Yeah, better idea, I'm down with the fly over the wall and crush the Bulbear with the ship plan! I cant imagine the thing's tougher than a space ship hull. (hope this doesnt end up in the famous last words thread)

foamy

lol. me to.
any one else gona get in as we crush it?

Sodo

If that's your decision, I'll write it in. So far, that seems like the majority vote...

FishyFriend

goombapatrol054

ok, its a go

foamy

weeeeeeeeeeee!
hey guys im not cleaning the ship after we crush the bugger.

KillerSlime

i'm going to take the pikmin and sit out of this bulborb-crushing. you can crush it, but i want to be far and away from their insides and someone should watch the carrrot people.

Sodo

As you enter the ship, you attempt to lift it off the ground with success! You fly over the wall and crush the Bulbear. It dies under the weight. Those of you in the ship get out and see a forest up ahead.

Unfortunately, Slime, you and the Pikmin can't get through the wall.

What will you all do?

KillerSlime

break through the weak spot in the wall, which was almost broken.

~Sylph~

Hmm, I'm trying to decide which side of the wall the ship is safer on.

Anyways, now that that Bulbear isnt going to be a problem I say we could break thru the wall. I think someone should gaurd the ship though and keep an eye on things, in case another Bulbear shows up while others are breaking thru the wall. Im willing to do either, but until someone decides who is doing which I am staying by the ship and making sure its ready to take off quickly. Oh yeah, and scanning the horizon/tree line.

foamy

well...who's more suited for swinging through the forest? who's suited to gaurding?
im going in the forest. who's cominmg with me?

KillerSlime

i'm already working on the wall. i ccannot come easily until the wall is finished, and the pikmin are on my side too.

foamy

we cold fly back over and pick you up.

~Sylph~

Yaeh, but that brings us back to the which side of the wall to leave the ship. If there is a hole in the wall the question becomes moot.

Sodo

Foamy, do you want to go into the forest?

Slime, you are stuck on the other side. The Pikmin cannot break the wall, even with your help.

What do you all want to do?

KillerSlime

become less of a beverage?
i think i want to fly over. i do not want to be stuck without a weapon.

foamy

yah im going into the forest. whos coming with me.
ill need at least some pikmen.

KillerSlime

i say me and the pikmin rejoin all you (instert pronoun here... definitely not sacrifices...) and we go into the forest.

~Sylph~

Ok, since the hole in the wall aint getting broken thru I wanna launch the ship and pick up Killerslime and the Pikmin and bring them to the other side of the wall.

(P.S. Sorry about the word filter gone awry. Stuck was being changed to slurpee)

foamy

ok me slime and the pikmen are going. anyone else?

KillerSlime

that's assuming i am ferried, right?

Sodo

Alright, here we go.

Sylph flies over, picks up Slime and 10 Pikmin, then brings them back.

Foamy and Slime enter the forest, which turns out to be a clearing with a large hole.

What will you all do?

~Sylph~

I wanna look around and see what else there is besides the forest. Large holes though potentially interesting seem far too risky for me to want to explore.

goombapatrol054

i'm going with sylph.

Sodo

You see NOTHING but trees. When you go past the trees, you see MORE trees.

FishyFriend

I chop down the trees. Mad

KillerSlime

i want to take the pikmin into the hole. and i want people to come with me. and can we bring our ship?

foamy

here ill go back and get the ship.
even if we cant get in the hole with the ship the ship has headlights right? it coulde be like a campfire.
(im smart arnt i! Foamy doesnt like the other smiling smilie!

Foamy doesnt like the other smiling smilie!

)

KillerSlime

so we are going to plug the ship in the hole, shining it's lights down?
