Editing 103 Pikmin run

{{Deletion}}


An '''103-Pikmin run''' is a playthrough of [[Pikmin 2]] with only 103 [http://pikmin.wikia.com/wiki/Pikmin_(species) Pikmin], the minimum possible number. Like the [[8-day run]] or the [http://pikmin.wikia.com/wiki/Zero-death_run zero-death run], it is recommended that you have completed the game at least once before attempting due to its challenging nature.

=='''Reasoning behind the number'''==
The [[Doomsday Apparatus]] requires 100 purple Pikmin to carry. This means that the player also must keep one red, yellow, and blue to prevent Pikmin exctinction, adding up to a minimum of 103 Pikmin to collect all 201 treasures. It is also more challenging to try this without sprays, because it is possible to do so and because then it seems more like a minimum Pikmin challenge (having 100 Pikmin on the field is not really a minimum Pikmin run staple, but this still is challenging enough as a minimum Pikmin challenge due to the lack of sprays and the overwhelming amount of purples that must be collected before the Wistful Wild) The minimum amount of time this has ever been completed is in 8 days
