Each area of Delphino is different, iirc.

There's a thread with all of the plucking data somewhere in here.

Red on cloth; never on water and water-based floors.
Yellow on metal.
Blue on water and water-based floors.
White on snow, cloud, and ice floors.
Purple on certain stone and metal floors and home run stadium.

Apply accordingly.

the stages to get more purples are:
delfino (main platform that you start on)
halberd ( platform you start on )
brinstar (top platform)
PS1 (metal plates on rock phase)
Lylat (correct me if I'm wrong, may just be yellows)
PS2 (wind phase)

i wish home run stadium was legal.... ****

Terrain that has higher purple pluck percentages than "Basic":
05 Light metal | 80%| 1 | 2 | 1 |0.5|0.8|18.9%|37.7%|18.9%| 9.4%|15.1%
06 Heavy metal | 80%| 1 | 2 | 1 |0.5|0.8|18.9%|37.7%|18.9%| 9.4%|15.1%
24 Brick |100%| 1 | 1 |0.5|0.5|0.6|27.8%|27.8%|13.9%|13.9%|16.7%
27 Grate |100%| 1 | 1 | 1 |0.5| 1 |22.2%|22.2%|22.2%|11.1%|22.2%
28 Sand |100%|1.5|1.5|0.5|0.2|0.5|35.7%|35.7%|11.9%| 4.8%|11.9%

Therefore, the legal stages where you would have a chance to get more purples are:

Brinstar: Basic (bottom platforms and alien tubes), Light metal (top platform), Alien goop (left and right platforms)

Castle Siege: Basic (all of part 1, transformation segment), Cloth (part 2's awnings), Brick (all other part 2 surfaces), Rock (part 3)

Delphino Plaza: Grass/Leaves (3 islands), Cloth (awnings/umbrellas), Grate (bottom main platform), Wood (dock), Water (canals), Sand (islands)*, Basic (everything else)

Frigate Orpheon: Heavy metal

Halberd: Heavy metal (platforms, starting area), Wood (deck)

Lylat Cruise: Heavy metal

Pokémon Stadium:
- Rock
: Light metal (platforms), Dirt (everything else)

Pokémon Stadium 2:
- Electric: Heavy metal (main platform), Basic (conveyor belts, platforms)
- Flying: Grate

*Keep in mind that the increase on sand terrain is only 1.6%.

Purples aren't even the best Pikmin.

:phone:
^^^^THIS^^^^

Everybody be hyping purples, but don't you guys remember who got MK to 90% before you purple usmashed him to death???

The other guys, that's who.

Sidenote: I think purples should latch on and increase opponent's weight/falling speed by a certain amount, and if they are in water they should instantly start sinking.

I disagree, too.
Change "by" to "on" and you've got it right. :mistyface:

This ballad begins in character select.
It was not meta I chose to perfect,
Or Falco, or Diddy, or Solid Snake,
All these frauds I decide to forsake ,
For I play a charcter with grabs like Haggar,
Tremble mortals, for the one I speak of is Olimar.

Veteran spacefarer of Hocotate Freight,
The good captain fearlessly charges into the fight,
Trailing behind him an army of much diversity,
Each one specialized to deal with any adversity.
A variety of colors: blue, yellow, purple, white and red.
To wantonly approach Olimar will quickly get you dead.

The match is on Smashville, the countdown begins.
Olimar lands his ship, and plucks out three friends.
He looks to his right, the opponent is clear.
Metaknight lands fiercely, but Oli does not fear.
The first move is made, from Meta a quick stab,
But Olimar shields strongly and quickly, a grab.

The captain now has the winged fiend in his grip,
The blue pikmin holding him begins to flip.
Pummeling the bat, it refuses to relent,
And the knight wonders from which hell this monster was sent,
Until the azure beast hears Olimar's direction over the sound,
And viciously tosses the masked menace off solid ground.

The bat, as it is wont, begins to glide back,
In it's brain a sly plan, an unexpected glide attack.
Quickly he flies, but is Olimar doomed to this fate?
Nay! The brilliant tactician has merely been bait!

Filling his lungs with a mighty breath,
Olimar lets lose a piercing whistle to avoid death.
The warrior from Warpstar is left awestruck,
and to Olimar's soldiers is but a sitting duck.
With one gesture skyward the purple giant arose,
He the favorite perhaps, dear to all Oli-bros.
And sent to the heavens with one mighty slam
the overpowered bat, and all began to jam.

But the knight came back, he had two stocks more,
And planned to take advantage of our hero's recovery, 'twas poor.
With transcendent priority strong in his edge,
The foul Meta began to drive Oli back to the ledge.
Despite many an fsmash and grab so well placed,
Soon the stage was to run out of space.

Our champion cornered, with nary an inch to spare,
Did something amazing, he did it with flair.
As quick in his mind as he was on his feet,
The stratagem he enacted was truly elite.
With an empty hop bait to draw his foe near
Olimar grabbed quickly while screaming," No fear!"

The shocked bat tornadoed but the yellow's grip was true,
The tactic was risky, but there is no try, only do.
Olimar quickly threw back the vile tyke
Then promptly jumped and nailed a white spike.
The knight subdued, his jaw dropped in awe,
No one could believe what they just saw.

Coming back off angelic platform the bat landed,
Only to be met by pikmin tost underhanded.
The barrage like a wall he could not pierce,
Olimar's army was loyal and fierce.
As the bat's percent rose, so too did his anger.
To this fortress how could he pose any danger?

The one stock hung like a bleak empty moon,
And the timer was clearly ending quite soon.
Faced with frustration, numbers, and overwhelming skill,
Led to Meta's rising sodium and wavering will.
An overwhelming difference like a bottomless pit,
L, R, A, Start, the conclusive rage quit.

The battle is over, the victor stands clear.
The good captain, loved by all most dear.
The music plays, while we salute the star,
Veteran spacefarer of Hocotate Freight, Captain Olimar.
