I thought Yellow were kind of overpowered in the first game, what with the bomb rocks.

Are you kidding? They wrecked that Snitchbug HARD in the video! All them flying enemies best beware! All Pikmin sans Rockmin have the same durability (a.k.a. nothingness lol), and even the smally Whites do damage equivalent to Blues n Yellows. However, Pinkmin have psuedo immunity to some enemies n hazards namely OHK electricity simply because they're flying out of range.

You underestimate the little guys; I've definitely seen Pikmin take hits before. They get knocked down, they get up again, and so on. Maybe Flying Pikmin can only take one hit. Maybe they deal less damage, or specialize in damaging flying enemies. We know almost nothing at all about them yet.

You only needed bomb rocks for the stone walls and the final boss. Yellows should make up at the least of your Pikmin squad for most of the game.
Being shaken off or blown back isn't a hit as it won't ever kill you. Being crushed or eaten will however, and those are OHKs, infact all ways Pikmin die are OHKs, though being eaten, poisoned, burned, and drowned takes time, and the last three can be cured via the whistle. I don't see how Pinkmin could be more affected other than maybe dying faster, but they can inherently avoid many hazards which would outweigh this even if it were true. Also, if we look at the video again, we see a Wollywog knock down some Pinkmin, but then they start to get up, well one did but I'm sure if the video had kept going the rest would have followed. And we know plenty about them. They can fly and uh, THEY CAN FLY! They also carry objects above ground and have their own onion. I doubt they'll have any more traits since they're already so good and there has only ever been one negative trait, being Purple's lower speed.
