'''Challenge Mode''' is an alternative game mode in {{p1}} that challenges the player to grow as many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] as they can in a single [[day]]. The mode has 5 stages, with a stage set in each [[area]], but the areas are modified from how they are in [[Story Mode]], with [[pellet]]s, [[Enemy|enemies]], and [[obstacle]]s in different locations, and [[ship part]]s not appearing. In addition, the [[S.S. Dolphin]] is not present during play, meaning [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]] cannot replenish his spacesuit's [[health]]. In Challenge Mode, the areas are slightly darker than their Story Mode 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> | '''Challenge Mode''' is an alternative game mode in {{p1}} that challenges the player to grow as many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] as they can in a single [[day]].
