Mushroom Mash is the first elementary difficulty Dandori Academy stage in Pikmin 4 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Dandori Academy. It takes place in a Pikmin Bloom-styled map, has no enemies, and consists of many Spotcaps that block the way and hide Pikmin and nectar inside.
It is identified as stage Elementary A of Exam 1, and its exam period starts November 12th, 2026. Taking the exam for this stage gives the player a reward.
Oatchi has a carrying strength of 10. Other gear and skills can be found here.
Overview[edit]
The stage takes place on a flat plain with a map styled like the Pikmin Bloom world map. The only objects are treasures, Spotcaps, and Kingcaps, and the player is tasked with destroying the mushrooms they find in order to open up the carrying paths that the Pikmin will take, in addition to freeing any Purple Pikmin or White Pikmin trapped inside.
Due to Purple Pikmin causing shockwaves when they land, they are best suited to take out entire groups of Spotcaps clustered together. All of the clusters of five Spotcaps release 5 White Pikmin when the last one in the cluster is destroyed, and likewise all of the clusters of three release one drop of nectar when the last is destroyed.
Layout[edit]
The S.S. Beagle is located roughly in the center of the stage. To the southwest is a dense network of pathways, with Spotcaps scattered around, mostly in the way of said paths. A few treasures can also be spotted in this direction.
To the south and southeast likes a long stretch with few pathways, and a large rectangular section of terrain surrounded by roads. This entire part of the area has no mushrooms blocking the way.
To the northeast is a large network of roads, but with only a few mushroom obstacles blocking them. Treasures can be found spread all across.
A river runs across a mostly straight line from the southwest to the southeast, but it is merely decorative.
