Tropical Wilds Remix is a Mission Mode stage in Pikmin 3. It is set in parts of the Tropical Wilds, with different enemy and object placement to Story Mode, and is playable in the Battle Enemies! mode only. In the original Pikmin 3, it was released in the 1.3.0 update for free, while the other four stages in the second row of the Mission Mode menu were made purchasable via the eShop. In Pikmin 3 Deluxe, it is unlocked by completing the first 5 Battle Enemies! stages.

Layout[edit]

The player starts off with Alph near to the master Onion and the SPERO nearby. Also nearby are a few Dwarf Orange Bulborbs and some Pellet Posies. To the south is the meandering path with a Pyroclasmic Slooch, but it is blocked off by a reinforced wall. Past the wall is a Burgeoning Spiderwort, which can be used to create ultra-spicy spray. Past the Pyroclasmic Slooch is also where the Swarming Sheargrubs start, though it is likely that their location will change frequently. Towards the end of the meandering path is a group of nectar eggs and a dirt mound with 3 Bomb Rocks.

Further south is the long path that goes under the waterfall. In the lake that the waterfall empties into, there is a lone Yellow Wollywog. By following the path, the player will eventually find a plethora of blue Pellet Posies and a Dwarf Orange Bulborb, eventually leading up to the Blue Onion, the starting point of Brittany and Charlie. Across the water from the Blue Onion is a lone Swarming Sheargrub on an island. Nearby is an incomplete bridge. On the other side are 2 more Dwarf Orange Bulborbs, and 2 piles of fragments to finish the bridge. Also nearby is a blue Pellet Posy and a Bouncy Mushroom that will lead back up to the Blue Onion.

The path leading to the other part of the area is blocked off with a cinderblock, so the player must venture through the water to go around it. In the water is yet another Yellow Wollywog and another nectar egg. On land, the player is greeted by a Burrowing Snagret. In the arena is a lone part to a seesaw block. To the right of the Burrowing Snagret is a room closed off by a dirt wall. The room is the landing site in Story Mode, and now houses a Peckish Aristocrab. To the north is a low cinderblock, with a Bouncy Mushroom beyond it, which allows Pikmin to be thrown to the second half of the area.

When thrown across, another Pellet Posy and a Swooping Snitchbug are immediately seen. A dirt mound is also present, and holds 3 more Bomb Rocks to use. A Burgeoning Spiderwort and an Orange Bulborb mark a fork in the road. To the right is the Baldy Long Legs' arena. A pile of hay is also present, which is necessary to go to the other arena, which houses yet another Baldy Long Legs. On the left path, a small ledge with 3 more Bomb Rocks is present. Further north is a Pyroclasmic Slooch and another Orange Bulborb. To the east is the other seesaw block. This seesaw block provides access to the upper plateau, which, at the top, holds 15 more buried Blue Pikmin.

At the beach area, there are 2 Yellow Wollywogs, a Pyroclasmic Slooch (which will often go into the water and lose its fiery trait), and an Orange Bulborb. On the small island to the north is an Armored Cannon Larva. The Cannon Larva can be used to easily take out the creatures without the need of any Bomb Rocks. By going south, the player will be back at the SPERO.

Guide[edit]

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

First, have Alph defeat the Dwarf Orange Bulborbs with Red Pikmin and Winged Pikmin. Focus on growing more Winged Pikmin than Red Pikmin. Switch to either Charlie or Brittany and start growing Blue Pikmin with the use of Pellet Posies and the Dwarf Orange Bulborb. Send Brittany to the section near the reinforced wall by using a Go Here! command, while sending Charlie to pluck the Blue Pikmin. Next, have Charlie go to the central area across the pond.

By now, Alph's Pikmin should have dug up 3 Bomb Rocks. Throw two on the Bouncy Mushroom and one at the Orange Bulborb while Charlie takes out the enemies in the central section and the river. Alph can next engage the Baldy Long Legs with his Winged Pikmin. These Pikmin cannot be crushed by this enemy under normal circumstances. Brittany's Blue Pikmin should start digging up the dirt mound if this hasn't been done already. The reinforced wall nearby isn't necessary to destroy, though the Bomb Rocks inside are useful to defeat the Pyroclasmic Slooches nearby.

Have Brittany walk to the pond area in the north using another Go Here! command. Once she's taken out some enemies, throw a few Pikmin on the ledge past the seesaw block and walk onto that seesaw block. Have Charlie throw some Blue Pikmin up the ledge that has some Bomb Rocks on top. Whistle the Pikmin, but then right afterwards, charge the Pikmin so that some pick up the rocks. Whistle and dismiss them so the Blue Pikmin are on top of the other seesaw block. This will cause Brittany to rise to the level of the plateau, so that she can climb to the top to pluck some Blue Pikmin sprouts and get some ultra-spicy spray at the top of the tree trunk.

Switch to Charlie so you can use one of the Bomb Rocks on the dirt wall and another on the Peckish Aristocrab. The ultra-spicy spray should be used on the Winged Pikmin fighting the Baldy Long Legs. After defeating the Baldy Long legs, quickly finish the hay pile so that the other Baldy Long Legs can be engaged. Meanwhile, Brittany should pick up the Bomb Rocks near the tree trunk and use them against nearby undefeated enemies. Since there are many Bomb Rocks, your Pikmin numbers can easily drop if you're not careful. If that happens, you can grow numbers using each type's Onion.
