Pikmin Onions

An onion is like a pikmin's mother ship. SO FAR... there are red, blue, and yellow onions, for red, blue, and yellow pikmin. But there are believed to be other onions in the future pikmin games. In both pikmin games you find the red onion, then the yellow onion, and finally a blue onion. Purples, whites, and bulbmin don't have onions so purples and whites go in the ship's exhaust pipe, while bulbmin can only stay in caves. You can make your pikmin multiply by having them defeat a creature or find a pellet. Pellets will have a number on them describing how many pikmin you need to carry it, but creatures all have different numbers of pikmin needed to carry them. When your pikmin carry the item back to the onion it "swallows" the item up and releases seeds which you can pluck to get more pikmin. If you have 100 pikmin out and you bring an item back to the onion it won't release seeds but it will just store the pikmin inside itself so you wont have to go through plucking all of the seeds. You also don't have to go through plucking all the seeds if you have the pluckaphone in the second game because then you can just whistle at them to pluck them. At the end of the day if any pikmin are with you or waiting by the camp will go into the onions but any poor stragglers will be eaten by nocturnal creatures.
