Be aware that certain Pikmin are more likely to appear in specific types of flooring.

Quoted from the Dojo about Olimar.

Is this true? Does anyone know the specific areas for this and which Pikmin are pulled from those areas?

I think this applies to the shallow water on Delfino. It seemed that I couldn't pull a red from that area, and I mostly got blue/purple.

Maybe we could do research and eventually make a chart of sorts. Unless one already exists...?

Try it on Pokemon Stadium during the transformations. I haven't gotten around to testing something like this yet.

Yeah this is true alright, its just that it is barely noticeable and it doesn't really matter. Even NC-Echo said that. I think TrueRedemption did a table on 'Pluck Percentages' on Final Destination
