'''Challenge Mode''' | The '''Challenge Mode''' in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']] challenges the player to grow as many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] as they can in a single day. It is unlocked when all three types of Pikmin are discovered in the game's main [[story mode]] for the first time, and once unlocked, the Challenge Mode will be available forever on the [[main menu]], under Options. Levels are unlocked as they are encountered in the main game, again, for any ship log. The areas are slightly different from the ones in story mode, having different enemies and obstacles in different places, and lacking in ship parts. In addition, the [[S.S. Dolphin]] is not present during play, meaning [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]] cannot repair his spacesuit, so the player must take great care as to not let Olimar fall. In Challenge Mode, the areas are slightly darker than their in-game counterparts, and the tempo of each area's [[Music in Pikmin#Areas|music]] is increased slightly<ref>Each song receives a 20% tempo increase in Challenge Mode, as concluded by [[Talk:{{PAGENAME}}#Tempo change|this brief study]]</ref>. | ||
When the time is up, the number of Pikmin that have been raised is displayed, and the top 5 numbers for each level are [[Saved game|persistently recorded]]. | |||

Using advanced strategies, it is possible to reach a cap on the number of Pikmin for all levels, except the Distant Spring, as it's too big to be fully covered within the time limit. That means that tied world records are not uncommon. | |||

Interestingly, when in Challenge Mode, the levels have a different duration. In the main game mode, all levels last for the same amount of time, which is roughly 13:30 minutes. The following multiplier values were taken directly from the game's files. | |||
