Distant Tundra (landing site)

The Distant Tundra has 2 of this kind of fruit. One is located on top of a snowman near the landing site, slightly buried in the ground. While it seems like it requires Yellow Pikmin to obtain due to its height, any Pikmin can reach the fruit. It is closer to the landing site than any other fruit in the game.

The other Cupid's Grenade in the Distant Tundra is next to an iron ball embedded within a snowdrift at the top of a hill, in the northwest of the main segment of the area. This fruit is directly on the main route through the story in the area, so it is very easy to collect.

Notes

Olimar's journal

GameCube icon.png GameCube
What a perplexing plant... It appears to be carrying two different types of berries! They must be a rare species of fruit. Both have odd traits. One seems to be a suppressant, while the other is a stimulant. It's not easy to tell which is which. I'd better be careful with them. I should also warn Louie, or else he may try to bake these berries in a pie.

What a perplexing fruit... It appears to possess two curiously conflicting traits. At times, consuming it can bring forth wonderful feelings of love and affection. At other times, it can completely suppress all romantic inclinations. Its unpredictable nature means that I must be careful with it. I'll also warn Louie, or else he's liable to try baking it in a pie.

Sales pitch

Fate's tapestry has unraveled. Tomorrow weeps. Romance has fallen, love is madness. ...To mend the rift between two cross lovers, this is the ultimate weapon in Cupid's arsenal.

Brittany's notes

Yes! The people of Koppai will be thrilled that we found this sweet, entirely delicious food source. They'll adore us forever when we introduce them to the weapon of mass nutrition.

Golden Grenades are fruits only found in Mission Mode, Bingo Battle, and Side Stories in Pikmin 3. They are golden versions of the Cupid's Grenade, and are worth a lot more Pokos. In Bingo Battle, they play a role similar to Cupid's Grenades in the fact that they give the player items via roulette; however they award five power-ups at once. As a result, they are much rarer than Cupid's Grenades. According to loading screen tips in Mission Mode, they are packed with Piktamin U.
