Mokaygee | The the rarest glitch I've ever had (bomb cloning in pikmin 1) @Mokaygee | Uploaded June 2019 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
This is perhaps the first time invisible bomb has ever happened, because it requires a ridiculously rare and unlikely setup with snitchbugs!
The setup:
A snitchbug grabs a bomb and flies into the explosion radius of another bomb. These explosions seemingly trigger the pikmin's bomb, held by the snitchbug, to also explode but as it turns out, the pikmin continues to hold onto an invisible bomb!
Furthermore, both pikmin are completely unscathed in the explosion.
I absolutely wish I hadn't thrown this run away. It was good enough pace at noon and I literally walked into the puffy blowhog's wind like a big dummy. That doesn't matter, I'm glad I discovered a cool new glitch!

Screw losing runs to this fight anymore due to the rng past half health that causes him to sometimes jump even when you do it all right.")

If youre going to watch the whole run, watch this smoother version ^
This run is unprecedented and absolutely incredible. I am so proud to bring to you not only a 54, but a mid-54, something I considered impossibly unlikely. If youd told me this a couple of months ago even, Id laugh in your face.
Gamecube, NTSC-U world record Pikmin 1 speedrun in 54:31.
The Wii world record is 51:24 by Jhawk4.
I dont think this will be easy to beat at all, and Im not going to be the one who does it. This is my last all parts PB unless something massive comes along. Im happy my final time will be what I consider representative of my skill level.
I can barely fault the run. There are a few gameplay errors here and there that add up, and Im still a little upset about the cutscenes in DS that could have helped out.
Its been an incredible journey up to this point. Ive improved my sum of bests to 52:55, failed countless times, and recently just BARELY missed the 54 twice, with a 55:01 then a 55:05, both with massive unfortunate errors. I suppose a time like this was a long time coming.
Two major shoutouts to runners who have changed my life:
iid01
The majority of this run was taken from iid01. He developed this run further than people thought possible and changed the landscape of this run. He still has incredible gameplay to this day and honestly Im a little paranoid he might come back on NTSC-U and bop me. Im so proud to continue carrying the torch, for now.
Jhawk4
The Wii master, a man with a vast contribution to all Pikmin games, the highest Pikmin IQ, he came along only a year ago, achieved his goal and got out. If it werent for him humbling me (yes, I was even less humble) and working with me about abstract ideas and small timesaves, getting me thinking again after my hiatus, I would never have gotten close to this time.
So shoutouts to iid and Jhawk, the greatest motivators I ever had.
