== | '''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> When the time is up, the number of Pikmin that have been raised is displayed, and the top 5 scores for each stage are [[Saved game|persistently recorded]]. | ||
*[[The Impact Site]] | |||
*[[The Forest of Hope]] | Challenge Mode is unlocked when all three types of Pikmin are discovered in the game's main [[Story Mode]] for the first time, and once unlocked, Challenge Mode will be available forever on the [[main menu]], under Options. Stages are unlocked as they are encountered in Story Mode, again, for any [[saved game]]. | ||

==Maximum score== | |||
Because there are only so many enemies and pellets within a stage, there is a maximum number of Pikmin that can be grown in each of them. This number is very high and difficult to reach, but the maximum score has been achieved for all stages. | |||
*[[The Impact Site]]: 278 | |||
*[[The Forest of Hope]]: 569 | |||
*[[The Forest Navel]]: 482 | |||
*[[The Distant Spring]]: 752 | |||
*[[The Final Trial]]: 299 | |||
==Time limits== | |||
In Challenge Mode, [[day]]s have a different duration to what they do in [[Story Mode]]. Usually, all days last for the same amount of time, which is roughly 13:30 minutes, but in Challenge Mode, this day length is multiplied by a specific value. The following multiplier values were taken directly from the game's files. | |||
