Tropical Forest: Difference between revisions

'''Tropical Forest''' ({{j|原生の社|Gensei no Sha}}) is the first stage in {{p3}}{{'s}} [[Mission Mode]]. It is a small, enclosed space with terrain similar to that of [[The Impact Site]] from [[Pikmin (game)|the first ''Pikmin'' game]]. It is a forest based map, with a few water puddles here and there. A [[Tropical Forest Remix|remixed version]] of Tropical Forest for Collect Treasure! mode was released in the {{date|1|October|2013}} [[downloadable content]] pack.

This level was also featured in the E3 2012 demo, as one of the playable levels. After defeating the [[Medusal Slurker]], players would've been greeted with a [[cutscene]] where they meet Rock Pikmin, similar to the one in the final game's story mode. The Collect Treasure! version is also playable in the [[Pikmin 3#Demo version|''Pikmin 3'' demo]].

As they go down the small slope in front of them, they will encounter two [[Dwarf Red Bulborb|Dwarf Bulborb]]s and an [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]]. Several [[Spotcap]]s and a [[Kingcap]] can be removed to obtain more [[Red Pikmin]] (making for the full 25), a [[Sunseed Berry]], and a [[Golden Sunseed]]. Then they will reach a small, dirt pathway that leads up to a [[dirt wall]]. A [[Face Wrinkler]] can be found to the right on this path. After the dirt wall has been removed, players will be able to fight the [[Medusal Slurker]] to obtain [[Rock Pikmin]]. More [[Rock Pikmin]] can be found in this area under some leaves located beyond the [[Medusal Slurker]].

Using the newly-acquired Rock Pikmin, the player can now break down a nearby [[crystal]], containing another [[Sunseed Berry]]. Behind the [[Red Bulborb]] are more Sunseed Berries, and the [[Red Bulborb]] itself has swallowed several [[Cupid's Grenade]]s. A little bit more up the path is a pile of fragments which can be crafted into a [[bridge]] along with a [[nugget]] pile. However, one must be cautious of the nearby [[Skutterchuck]], which will try to kill the [[Red Pikmin]] by launching the three crystal nodules nearby. Behind the Skutterchuck is a [[crystal wall]] that can be broken only by Rock Pikmin.

First, whistle all the [[Red Pikmin]] to your side and have them take the [[Cupid's Grenade]]s and [[Sunseed Berry]]. Defeat the 2 [[Dwarf Red Bulborb|Dwarf Bulborbs]] and take them, too. Have some Pikmin work on the [[Kingcap]] while others tear down the wall. Get the [[Face Wrinkler]] and the fruit behind the [[Kingcap]].

Once the Pikmin are done with the wall, defeat the [[Medusal Slurker]] to get [[Rock Pikmin]]. More Rock Pikmin are under some clovers. Go back to the alcove and collect the Sunseed Berry, [[Golden Sunseed]], and [[Golden Grenade]] encased in crystals. Go along the path and order some Pikmin to build the bridge while you destroy the crystal blocking a [[Red Bulborb]] and defeat it. It will cough up multiple Cupid's Grenades.

The player starts with [[Alph]] in a small alcove with the Red Onion. Outside this alcove is a group of nine planted Red Pikmin, and some pellets to help boost the Red Pikmin's population. Unlike in the Collect Treasure! mode, the player starts with these nine Pikmin '''only''' and has to build up an army from there. Following this grassy area is a split path. On the right path is a family of two [[Dwarf Red Bulborb|Dwarf Bulborbs]] and one [[Bulborb]]. Just beyond them is a [[crystal wall]]. Since there are no [[Rock Pikmin]] in this level, the player must use the [[bomb rocks]] in the level to clear the wall.

It's impossible to get more records from the global ranking features since they have been compromised. However, players have reached higher scores for Collect Treasure!, like 9850.{{cite youtube|DSP7yhb9G8I|a Collect Treasure! playthrough with a final score of 9850|published={{date|8|November|2018}}|retrieved={{date|9|November|2018}}}}
