 Dalmo's Log |
If you were swept up and then tossed away by those long dangling arms, I think you'd better understand what it feels like to be a Pikmin. A little courage is all you need to give it a try. Consider it a learning experience! | ||
 Olimar's Log |
The Scarpanids originally lived on the ground, sporting poorly developed vestigial wings. This species developed enlarged antennae that can be used as makeshift wings. Scarpanids are attracted by the sight of large groups of Pikmin in cavalry formation and will swoop down to seize them. However, Scarpanids do not eat Pikmin, and they will drop any seized Pikmin after a short time. The reason for this behavior is unknown but I look forward to future research in the area. |

 Louie's Log |
Remove the wings, marinate a well-marbled steak for several hours in a chipotle marinade, then charbroil to perfection. | ||
