A '''6 day run''' is a [[challenge run]] of {{p1}} in which the player collects every [[Ship part|part]] of the [[S.S. Dolphin]] in the minimum number of days possible, which is six. Few players are able to do this, as it is very difficult and requires extreme skill in managing the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. Many tricks are used in this run to help the players collect the parts faster, or in a different order. There are no limits on Pikmin deaths, though it is possible to perform this run in conjunction with a [[zero death run]]. | |||

This exploited a few mechanics in order to obtain the [[Radiation Canopy]], [[Geiger Counter]], and [[Sagittarius]]. Runners continued investigating the area, and eventually found ways to overcome them all without needing Blue Pikmin. The strategies were optimized further and further with time. | ||
