Meanwhile, Alph, following his descent from the impact of the Drake's crash, wakes up in the [[Tropical Wilds]], and discovers a [[Red Onion]] and its Pikmin, which he quickly uses to help him find his missing [[KopPad]] and the S.S. Drake, which laid nearby. It is in good shape, aside from missing a component that renders it incapable of activating its warp drive – the [[cosmic drive key]] – which is needed to return to Koppai. | Meanwhile, Alph, following his descent from the impact of the Drake's crash, wakes up in the [[Tropical Wilds]], and discovers a [[Red Onion]] and its Pikmin, which he quickly uses to help him find his missing [[KopPad]] and the S.S.

Brittany lands in the [[Garden of Hope]] and finds herself trapped until Alph rescues her by using the newly-discovered [[Rock Pikmin]]. As the two continue their mission of finding fruit, they defeat the [[Armored Mawdad]] and retrieve the [[Data Glutton]] from it, expanding the Drake’s radar capabilities to a new area. Later they arrive at the Distant Tundra where Brittany is ejected from the Drake again due to them hitting a tree in the storm. She lands in a cave and finds [[Yellow Pikmin]]. With the Pikmin, she escapes the cave and reunites with Alph. Shortly after this, the duo fight the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] and after defeating it, they free Captain Charlie. Charlie reveals that he found a [[data file]] stating that [[Captain Olimar]] has the cosmic drive key. | Brittany lands in the [[Garden of Hope]] and finds herself trapped, until Alph rescues her by using the newly-discovered [[Rock Pikmin]].

Later on, after visiting the [[Tropical Wilds]] and defeating the [[Sandbelching Meerslug]] to get the [[Folded Data Glutton]], the explorers begin to receive signals from an unknown source. This eventually leads them to finding that [[Louie]] has crashed onto the planet, whom they rescue from the [[Scornet Maestro]]. The day after rescuing him, he steals all their juice and tries to escape to the [[Hocotate ship]], only to be eaten by the [[Quaggled Mireclops]] and rescued again by the three explorers. After this second encounter, he is tied up to prevent him from causing the leaders trouble again, and he gives them the coordinates to the [[Formidable Oak]], where his colleague is being held captive. | Later on, after visiting the [[Tropical Wilds]] and defeating the [[Sandbelching Meerslug]] to get the [[Folded Data Glutton]], the explorers begin to receive signals from an unknown source.

Besides that, using the [[KopPad]], it is possible to take highly-detailed pictures from the perspective of a [[leader]], using the Wii U GamePad. Players could then share their pictures over Nintendo's Miiverse service, on the ''Pikmin 3'' community. As of {{date|7|November|2017}}, Miiverse support for ''Pikmin 3'' has been discontinued. | Besides that, using the [[KopPad]], it is possible to take highly-detailed pictures from the perspective of a [[leader]], using the Wii U GamePad.

If the player tries to view global rankings, but the global ranking data hasn't been updated in a while, the game will ask the player {{transcript|Use SpotPass to receive <span style{{=}}"color: orange;">global ranking data</span> from Nintendo for this software?}}, with the options "Cancel" and "OK". Accepting will fetch the latest ranking data from Nintendo's servers. The message {{transcript|This Wii U has been configured to allow the use of SpotPass for this software.}} confirms that the data was obtained successfully. It will be impossible to see the rankings until the question is accepted. This prompt can also come up at times when the player turns the game on. | If the player tries to view global rankings, but the global ranking data hasn't been updated in a while, the game will ask the player {{transcript|Use SpotPass to receive <span style{{=}}"color: orange;">global ranking data</span> from Nintendo for this software?}}, with the options "Cancel" and "OK".

Since at least July 2018, some cheated Mission Mode scores have been added to the list. For instance, the world record for Tropical Forest (Collect Treasure!) is 14710, meaning that the player completed the mission in 1 second, which is not normally possible. Because of this, knowing the legitimate world records is nearly impossible. So far, these fraudulent scores are still on the leaderboards, and | Since at least July 2018, some cheated Mission Mode scores have been added to the list.
