Thanks for posting this.

Done.
Sorry for my long absence. I'm back, and was wondering if anyone had anything else they'd want to see in this guide. Remember that it is pikmin-intensive, and I'm not going to stray to far from that topic, but I will certainly look into any requests.

It's actually catching me off guard just how much that means to me. It's great knowing that my guide has been doing its job ^_^

Yes, this guide is quite helpful to new Olimar mains.
Quite helpful, indeed.

For the U smash kills chart, will the other pikmin colours (white is unnecessary) be updated with the Usmash kill percentage?

Quite helpful indeed...
Now, when you say that when you B-stick and that you lose the ability to boost a hyphen smash, do you mean the hyphen smash in general or overall. I b-stick with Lucas and if you try to buffer a SHU-air you'll always get an U-smash, and when you hold Z-down, it' will charge. (although Lucas should never have to use this)

You don't lose the ability to DACUS or up smash during a dash if you b-stick, and you can do all the momentum bounces without the b-stick.
Noa.

Shouldn't this be unstickied how?
Hilt's new thread was supposed to replace this, right?

Hilt's thread lacks a few of the general things this thread covers.
If Hilt adds the missing information, I'm sure this won't be needed anymore.

I will admit that my thread has been here for a long time, and Hilt is a much more active member of the board than me. Honestly, I'm honored that my guide has been stickied this long... years... I really miss when I had the time to dedicate every evening to finding out things about Olimar, and when I was more passionate about this game. It sort of hurts to be thought of as "phased out," but at the same time, I'm not that active here anymore. Dang but I miss it... all of this college crap has pushed everything else out of my mind.
I don't mean to be clingy or nostalgic, or selfish and defend this thread just to keep my name stickied. I do think, however, that this thread is quite good for starting Olimainers--a good, pretty much peer reviewed set of basic info that isn't too complex or overwhelming. Hilt's guide looks wonderfully in depth, and I definitely think it deserves its sticky, but I could imagine a newcomer being a bit... taken aback by how incredibly in-depth Hilt's stuff is. I don't know, perhaps I'm just being selfish--perhaps there aren't many new Olimainers on the boards these days, either... I wouldn't know.
I really do miss this community though, and I will always be an Olimainer. I'd be interested in getting involved again, perhaps sleep a little less, smoke and drink a little less, and help out some more and stop soaking up recognition posthumously (lol I don't even know if I get any recognition these days).
I'll look into setting up a killchart with average DI resistance one of these days (if this hasn't already been done).
Other than that, I'd just like to say to all of the old Olimainers that I haven't forgotten you, and I hope that all of the oldies have avoided board lethargy better than I have!

i agree kyas! I'm serious you nailed it, this chart helped me the most when i was starting up a year or so ago. It's easy and basic, the most relevant powerful and stuff to know when studying the olimar basics. *highfive* lol

Haha, the main reason this thread has stayed stickied is because it's served as a basic reference thread for the Olimar Boards for those that are new. My thread was originally going to be a replacement for it but I instead turned it into a research thread. It's highly possible I may change that though and shift the direction my thread goes a bit soon, changing it from just being about mechanics of pikmin, to being everything about pikmin instead, mechanics and the basics. I haven't updated the thread yet since I've made it, so I may make that choice then.
Even if this thread does end up unstuck, you should still come back to the community Kyas. I wouldn't normally have my guide replace it alone, considering mine would definitely not be for newcomers, as you stated, but with Fino's guide for Olimar, I think that area is covered well enough. I don't know, I'll see what I do and where things go after awhile.
Good to see you again though Kyas :D
Show up more!
