In [[Mission Mode]], this fruit is slightly more common, and is worth 1,000 points. In the [[Thirsty Desert Remix]], the pieces are clustered together. In the [[Forgotten Cove]], the watermelon is released from the [[Baldy Long Legs]] after it is defeated. | In [[Mission Mode]], this fruit is slightly more common, and is worth 1,000 points.

The Sandbelching Meerslug holds the only Crimson Banquet in the game. After defeat, it drops the massive fruit, which breaks into smaller pieces. These chunks include a small chunk, which takes a single [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to carry, two pieces that take 5 Pikmin to carry, two pieces that take 8 Pikmin to carry, and a particularly large piece that requires 15 Pikmin to carry. If the battle with the Meerslug takes up most of the day, the player might want to hold off on collecting every piece, as the pieces that he/she does not carry back will remain in the Meerslug's arena. Whether there is more time left during the day or not, it is still advised to send the [[Folded Data Glutton]] ahead, as it is of higher importance than the melon. | The Sandbelching Meerslug holds the only Crimson Banquet in the game.

With the many warp locations needed to take the melon back to the Drake, and the many pieces needed to carry back, it takes a long time to retrieve the Crimson Banquet. As such, try to make sure the route is clear of all obstructions and enemies, destroy the Reinforced Wall near base, and have as many Pikmin as possible carrying back the fruit. | With the many warp locations needed to take the melon back to the Drake, and the many pieces needed to carry back, it takes a long time to retrieve the Crimson Banquet.
