EDIT: That, and when Jenka talks about the one time ten years ago when Mimigas were loose on the earth. That, and if there were Mimigas on the surface, why would the Doctor bother using the ones on the island?
Well the main point for the Doctor wasn't as much as gathering the Mimigas, but finding the Red Flowers... Once he obtained that, he put them to work since they were readily available to plant the flowers, plus they were proven fighters from the war 10 years ago... However, with the Red Crystal I think he had planned to do much more than just frenzied Mimigas...
Now for whether Mimigas exist elsewhere in the world? I think so, but there's no evidence one way or the other. But, I bet they would live secluded lives; and at the very least we do know many Mimiga descended to the earth 10 years ago, now did they all perish? Or are there a few out there even today..!
As for that conversation, I have all the dialog written in this notebook of Cave Story... I guess I need to type it in so I can do quick searches, but I didn't see it in Sue's Letter or Jenka's conversations...
Here's from Jenka: "Had the red flowers not existed, the Mimigas might have vanished entirely from the island..."
I'll have to check again to be sure, since I forgot to see what she says if you talk to her multiple times besides her main conversations...
EDIT: I used to think the strange things were limited to the island, but after watching tons of anime, and games that I found similar to Cave Story I think it's unlikely that the island is just the singular odd thing in the world [like if it existed in our reality...]
Er! Gotta run
