There are 36 stages in Mission Mode, of which sixteen are [[downloadable content]] in Wii U but base game in Deluxe. All of them also support 2-player split-screen co-op. [[Tropical Forest Remix]], [[Tropical Wilds Remix]], and [[Fortress of Festivity]] are free, and are only added to the game if it is [[update]]d. Unlike the Challenge Mode in previous games, this one is available from the start of the game, but certain requirements must be met in order to unlock some stages.

For ''Pikmin 3'' on the Wii U, bosses in Defeat Bosses! mode are only made available once they're defeated in [[Story Mode]] for the first time (regardless of collecting their spoils). For the other mission categories, players start out with only one stage available, and they must obtain at least a bronze medal in order to unlock the next stage on the line. For the missions that aren't downloadable content, the previous mission must be beat before the next one can be unlocked.

==Co-op==
==Co-op==
Before starting a stage, it is possible to choose between single-player or 2-player co-op mode. In co-op, player 1 is on the left of the screen, while player 2 is on the right of the screen. Player 1 starts the stage as [[Alph]], and player 2 starts as [[Brittany]] or [[Olimar]], depending on the stage. If the level has more than two leaders available, either player can switch to the leader that is not being used. Players share [[spray]]s, so any used will deduct from the counter of both players. Co-op high scores are listed separately from single-player high scores. The "[[Go Here!]]" function cannot be used in co-op.

The medals are visible on the screen with the mission's briefings. A second medal appears if the challenge was completed in co-op mode. The platinum medals also have the [[Koppaite text]] {{kt|P|I|K|M|I|N}} {{kt|P|L|A|T|I|N|U|M}} on them, which means "Pikmin platinum".
