Editing Dandori Challenge

'''Dandori Challenges''' ({{j|ダンドリチャレンジ|Dandori Charenji|Dandori Challenge}}) are special [[cave]]s in ''[[Pikmin 4]]''. While accessed from the [[area]]s in [[Story Mode]], they function more like an alternative game mode, similar to the [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]] from {{p2}} and [[Mission Mode]] from {{p3}}. These challenges are directed by [[leafling]]s, and completing a Dandori Challenge allows the player to rescue that very same leafling [[castaway]]. Pikmin from outside the challenge cannot be taken inside, and the player will instead receive some Pikmin from the leafling directing the challenge. Once completed, a challenge cave is closed so that the leafling does not enter again, but the challenge can be replayed from the [[Rescue Command Post]] once [[Jin]] is saved.

==Gameplay==

As described by the challenge-giver, the treasures are fake, and anything collected is not kept after the challenge. The same applies to piles of [[raw material]], which can only be used to build structures within the challenge. Likewise, the Pikmin given to the player inside the challenge belong to that person and cannot be taken out. Throughout the challenge, the leafling in charge will stand in one spot in the sublevel and watch the player as they work. While they are reachable, they cannot be interacted with. If the challenge is passed, the leafling will be overwhelmed by the player's dandori skill, get dizzy from all the work, and faint shortly after awarding the player 30 pieces of raw material, allowing it to be rescued. If the player fails the challenge, the leafling will give them 10 pieces of material as a reward for participating the first 5 times, and 1 piece of material thereafter.

While Dandori Challenge caves are found in specific locations in [[area]]s, each of the 12 challenges is not assigned to a specific location – instead, the stages are encountered in a specific order, so that the first challenge the player enters will always be Dandori Day Care, the second will be Hotshock Canyon, etc. The stage assigned to a specific challenge cave is set when the cave is entered, so the player can walk up to and open multiple challenge caves and they will all be the same stage as long as one is not entered. Once a challenge cave is entered, that challenge will be set, even if the player exits the cave without completing the challenge. The [[Trial of the Sage Leaf]] does not follow these rules and is always found in a specific location in the [[Rescue Command Post]].

 

Below is a list of every Dandori Challenge cave entrance available and how to access them, listed in the order of their slot on the details screen of the [[area selection menu]]. Each slot will fill in accordingly with the name of the Dandori Challenge played via the respective cave entrance.

** Past a [[sprinkler]] on the plateau near the 1st base, Line of Logs.

** Near the entrance to the [[Dream Home]]; can be accessed either by pulling down a [[clipboard]] to bridge the gap above or by turning off a sprinkler below and using a fire starter to reach the alcove.

** On a plateau in the center of the area, a long bridge must first be built near the 3rd base, The Maple Bridge.

** By the mud pool with the [[Beckoning Mannequin]]. White Pikmin must be tossed up a ledge to destroy 3 [[poison]] geysers and move a cardboard box that becomes a bridge from a nearby ledge to access the cave.

If the player fails to earn a bronze medal on a challenge, [[Dingo]] will offer to complete the challenge for them if he has already been talked to beforehand. If the player selects "Get Help" from the following menu, he will proceed to do so (shown with a blank screen, text boxes, and random sound effects), and the victory cutscene will play like normal as if the player had completed it themselves.
