The Crunchy Deluge (シャクシャクノミ?, lit.: "Shak-shak Fruit") is a fruit in Pikmin 3. It is an Asian pear. There is only one in Story Mode, and it is located in the Twilight River, where it is underwater and guarded by a Toady Bloyster. This means it can only be retrieved by Blue Pikmin. This fruit produces a total of two containers of juice (one in Ultra-Spicy mode). The Crunchy Deluge makes three appearances in Mission Mode, all in the Thirsty Desert Remix, and is worth 100 Pokos. Although identical to the Astringent Clump in weight and juice provided, they are different fruits.

Collecting the fruit

The strategies shown are just suggestions.

The Crunchy Deluge is found in the Twilight River. It is found underwater at the very end of the river in the southernmost part of the region, guarded by a Toady Bloyster. Kill or distract the Bloyster and retrieve the fruit with Blue Pikmin.

Collecting the treasure

There is a Crunchy Deluge trapped in a sticky mold near the top of the Primordial Thicket. To collect this treasure, you must first clear out the mushrooms to remove the mold. Then, throw 12 Pikmin at it.

There is a Crunchy Deluge inside of a Mamuta at the top right of Subarea 1 of The Mud Pit in the Primordial Thicket. To collect this treasure, you must first defeat the Mamuta, then throw 12 Pikmin at it.

Notes

Brittany's notes

US version icon.png US version
Lots of juice in here, like having your mouth flooded in sweetness. Not much Piktamin U, but nutrition isn't everything. Sometimes you just want a natural disaster of flavor, you know?

Lots of juice in here, and it's like having your taste buds washed away on a tide of sweetness. Not much in the way of Piktamin U, but nutrition isn't everything. Sometimes you just want a flood of flavour...
