The Impact Site: Difference between revisions

'''The Impact Site''' is where [[Captain Olimar]] first lands after his [[S.S. Dolphin|ship]] crashes on the [[Pikmin Planet]] in ''[[Pikmin 1]]'', and so the first day is spent there. The area is near the edge of the vast forest on the area select map, not far from [[The Forest of Hope]]. The Impact Site is the location of the discovery of the [[Red Onion]] with its associated [[Red Pikmin]]. This area and the [[Final Trial]] make up the [[Wistful Wild]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''.

The level consists of a small pool of water, not accessible on Day 1, a number of tree stumps, and a few relatively small grassy clearings. It contains only two ship parts, one of which is collected on the first day in the tutorial-like beginning of the game. After day 1, the amount of [[Pellet Posy|Pellet Posies]] increases, and some enemies appear: the large amounts of pellets from then on make this area arguably the best place for boosting Pikmin population. It is also the only location of the [[Goolix]], one of the game's hidden bosses, which can only be found on odd-numbered days after day 8, on the large tree stump near the water.

*Strangely, Bulborbs are seen during the end of day cutscene, while no Bulborbs are present in the actual area.

*In Pikmin 2, the Impact Site was combined with the Final Trial to make Wistful Wild.
