The '''Distant Tundra''' is an area in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. Similar to the [[Valley of Repose]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', this area represents the season of Winter. In the beginning of the game, [[Charlie|Captain Charlie]] lands here when the [[S.S. Drake]] crashes and discovers [[Yellow Pikmin]]. After entering a cave and defeating the Phosbats inside, Charlie is captured by an unknown creature.


The '''Distant Tundra''' ({{j|迷いの雪原|Mayoi no Setsugen|Lost Snowfield}}) is an [[area]] in {{p3}}. It is set in a snowy region, with patches of exposed dirt, a river running through the middle, and several underground caves. [[Yellow Pikmin]] are discovered in this area, and it is where [[Captain Charlie]] first lands. The [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] serves as the [[boss]] of the area. The 16 [[fruit]]s in the area give a total of 22 cups of juice (11 on [[Difficulty|Ultra-Spicy difficulty]]).
Later, [[Alph]] and [[Brittany]] travel here after obtaining the [[Data Glutton]] from the [[Armored Mawdad]]. Upon the Alph and Brittany's first visit, Alph accidentally crashes the S.S. Drake and, as a result, Brittany falls out of the ship. Coincidentally, her landing site is the location of the Yellow Onion. After building bridges from both sides of the river to an island in the middle, Brittany is able to return to the S.S. Drake with the "new" Pikmin. Eventually, the two enter the same cave Charlie was kidnapped in and find his captor to be the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]]. After defeating the boss, Charlie emerges from its mouth covered in goo. A 100 bonus is given if the boss is defeated with only three yellow [[Pikmin]] , which is possible. After it, a cameo is shown of what looks like a few [[Winged Pikmin]] flying by, before the day ending.

After the [[S.S. Drake]] crashes in the prologue, the focus goes to [[Captain Charlie]], who landed in this area. The player takes control of him for a while as he discovers [[Yellow Pikmin]], but this section of the game stops when he walks through a cave, as an unknown creature – later revealed to be the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] – ambushes him.

Later on in the story, after [[Alph]] and [[Brittany]] reunite and collect the [[Data Glutton]], they head to the Distant Tundra for the first time. Unfortunately, the [[S.S. Drake]] flies too low to the ground and hits a rock, accidentally ejecting [[Brittany]] into the cave below. In this cave, she discovers the Yellow Pikmin and their [[Onion]]. Upon using the new Yellow Pikmin to open an entry to the outside, she discovers that she and [[Alph]] are separated by a river, which must be overcome by two bridges, which each leader must help each other build. Until the player reunites the two leaders, Brittany will not be able to return to the Drake at the end of the day and will go unfed until reunited.

*[[Skeeterskate]]
Eventually, the two explorers make it to the area in which Charlie had crash landed. Any [[obstacle]]s that Charlie destroyed on the first day will stay destroyed, letting the leaders know that someone has been there before. They make it into the cave in which he was captured, light it up, and the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] retreats. They begin to fight the boss, and upon defeating it, rescue Charlie, unlocking him as a playable leader.

[[File:P3 Distant Tundra Landing Screenshot.jpg|thumb|250px|An overview of part of the area.]]
*[[Joustmite]]
The Distant Tundra is a large wintery landscape, with most of the terrain covered in snow and ice. Its structure is quite complex, mostly due to the assortment of walls, ramps, twists and turns in the terrain. Regardless, most parts are quite open. In addition, there is a large amount of water throughout the stage. Because of the cold climate, many enemies that cannot be found in other areas are found here, such as the [[Bearded Amprat]] and the [[Arctic Cannon Larva]].
*[[Desiccated Skitter Leaf]]
 
*[[Arctic Cannon Larva]]
==Segments==
*[[Fiery Blowhog]]
The main segment of the area is quite big, and is split in two due to the river that crosses the middle. The following is a list of all [[segment]]s in the area:
*[[Wogpole]]
 
*[[Dwarf Bulbear]]
;Main segment:
*[[Spotty Bulbear]]
[[File:P3D Prerelease Ice Slide.jpg|thumb|200px|Alph and some Pikmin riding down the icy slide in the northwest.]]
*[[Phosbat]]
The southern half of the main segment is where the landing site is. The site is circular with an exit to the south, and a eastern ramp leading to the river's shoreline. From the south exit, there is a perpendicular path that splits in two when going east: one end dips down and leads to the shore, the other has a bridge that leads to higher ground, where the [[Dodge Whistle]] can be reached with a nearby [[Bouncy Mushroom]].
*[[Shaggy Long Legs]]
 
On the aforementioned path split, when taking the dipping path, it's possible to go under the bridge on the other path, and enter a room with [[Pyroclasmic Slooch]]es. This room is surrounded by high walls from other parts of the stage. To the east, there is a bit of terrain near the Dodge Whistle. [[Leader]]s and [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] can be thrown to the portion at the south of the room, which has a chain of Bouncy Mushrooms that in turn provide access to the western ledge. That ledge has a pathway that shrinks further down to the west until the [[Zest Bomb]] – the purpose is to make it harder to dodge the [[Arctic Cannon Larva]]'s snowballs.
 
The center of the southern half of the area is a bit open, and leads to the river's shore on the west. This shore has a protrusion that points to a similar, smaller protrusion on the other side; this allows the leaders to swap Pikmin. From the center, there are two ways to reach the eastern portion: through a one-way slide in the middle or a curving long path to the north. This semi-open zone has a vase in the middle and a ledge to a slide that takes one back to the southern half of the area; a leader must be thrown by another to get here. A bit more to the east is a ledge with a [[Face Wrinkler]].
 
The northwestern corner of the main segment's southern half consists of three high steps. The first is crossed with a [[geyser]], and the second can be overcome with another geyser or by taking the eastern path. Up at the top, there is an inlet of land at the north, with a tunnel blocked by an [[iron ball]] facing the south; one leader must throw another in order to get here. To the northwest of the topmost high step is a slide that goes all the way to the bottom.
 
To note is that the river cannot be crossed from one half of the segment to the other right away, given that there are two underwater [[gate]]s in the river itself blocking access.
 
;Charlie's Crash Site:
This segment starts at a dead end, and is mostly linear, with slight zigzagging. Midway through, it splits into two, with the northern exit leading to the Spotty Bulbear cave, but blocked off by a [[crystal]], and the eastern path leading to the large wooden bridge.
 
;Large bridge:
This large, wooden bridge provides a path between Charlie's crash site and the cave segment that leads into the Vehemoth Phosbat's den. The [[camera]] in this segment faces to the side, and the only movement possible is two-dimensional.
 
;Vehemoth Phosbat arena access:
This cave segment is mostly linear, but has a gap that can only be overcome with [[Bloominous Stemple]]s. The exit on the other side leads to the boss' arena.
 
;Vehemoth Phosbat arena:
The arena is quite large and open. [[Electrode]]s are scattered about the southeastern wall. To the southwest is a slightly raised ledge that also has an electrode. To the northeast is a small cliff and an incline, and to the northwest is a large battery on a raised platform, accessible with a bridge. There is an exit that leads into a path on the main area near the Dodge Whistle.
 
;Yellow Pikmin cave:
This is where Brittany crash lands on the first day on this area. The main portion of the cave is roughly circular and is where the [[Yellow Pikmin]] are first found. To the west is a small room with two halves of a [[Disguised Delicacy]] inside a [[crystal]], and to the east is an incline that leads further down. On this level, there is an exit, blocked off by stone bricks. A slide on the top level also leads here, and the [[iron ball]] on top of it is needed to clear the blockade. Finally, at the start, there is also a path to the Shaggy Long Legs's arena, but a leader can only get here if tossed by another.
 
;Spotty Bulbear cave:
This cave is made up of two sections. The starting one has exits leading to the northwest of the main area and to the branch on Charlie's crash site. There are [[Pyroclasmic Slooch]]es, [[water]] puddles and [[fire geyser]]s, as well as a small gap that can be covered with open [[Bloominous Stemple]]s.
 
A [[bamboo gate]] blocks the second portion. This dark room has a roaming [[Spotty Bulbear]] and an [[Astringent Clump]].
 
;Shaggy Long Legs's arena:
The main entrance is through the Yellow Pikmin cave, but it is possible to access this segment through the east end of the river, underwater, although a [[bamboo gate]] needs to be lifted. This arena only has two parts: one bit of solid terrain, and one lake; the boss walks back and forth between the two.

==Changes in ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe''==
Like most areas, Distant Tundra has received some notable changes in {{p3d}}:
* The ground texture underneath the [[Onion]] is shifted.
* Around the landing site, snow is removed in the shape of a path that leads from the Onion to the throwing point on the lake.
* Snow is added to the area with the [[Bearded Amprat]] west of the landing site.
* Snow is added to the corridor behind the electric gate south of the landing site.
* Snow is added around the base of the small ice slide east of the landing site.
* Snow is added to the plateau next to the paper bag southeast of the landing site.
* Snow thickness is increased in the corridor with the [[Joustmite]]s southeast of the landing site.
* Snow thickness is increased in the plateau with the Bearded Amprats south of the landing site.
* An icy trail connects the exit of the cave where the Yellow Onion is found to the throwing point on the lake.
* Snow is removed from the area near the exit of the Yellow Onion cave.
* Snow is moved around in the area with the [[Swooping Snitchbug]] west of the cave exit.
* Snow is removed or reduced in the area around the [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] east of the cave exit.
* There are added screws in the ground in several places: 1 on each side of the throwing point on the lake, 1 in the Yellow Onion cave on a ledge, and 1 in the Vehemoth Phosbat room on a ledge.
* Some [[data files]] have been added, removed, or moved elsewhere.
 
==Guide==
{{guide}}
 
===Basic guide===
Upon first landing in the Distant Tundra, [[Brittany]] will fall out of the ship and into a cave. This cave is where [[Yellow Pikmin]] are discovered. 3 Pikmin are planted in the ground next to the dormant Onion; pluck them and throw them at the [[electrode]] to unlock the Onion. To leave the cave, at least 20 [[Yellow Pikmin]] must be grown to push down an [[iron ball]]. There are five 1-pellets and two 5-pellets in the cave, and no enemies present, so this can be done easily; it is recommended to grow all 25 Pikmin possible.
 
Upon leaving the cave, the proper part of the day will start. Alph and Brittany are on opposite sides of a large river, and a double bridge must be built to connect them. Brittany will not be able to board the ship until the bridge is built. Both leaders have access to 2 piles of [[fragments]], and all these fragments must be carried to the double bridge to build it. Due to the placement of obstacles, leaders cannot cross the river, but Pikmin can, at a dedicated throwing point northwest of the landing site. You'll need to visit this spot with both leaders to exchange Pikmin.
 
On Alph's side of the river, there are 2 piles of blue bridge fragments. To access the first, destroy the [[electric gate]] next to the landing site with the new Yellow Pikmin, then walk through it, defeat the [[Fiery Blowhog]], walk to the right, and collect the pile of 30 fragments. The second pile is at a lower level. To access it, either destroy the [[crystal]] next to the electric gate and drop down, or open up the [[tunnel]] southeast of the landing site. Destroy the crystal wall underneath a natural bridge, and you'll find an arena-like area. Defeat the [[Pyroclasmic Slooch]]es, and collect the pile of 20 fragments. To note is that if you haven't opened the tunnel, the Pikmin will walk past 2 [[Joustmite]]s and a [[Bearded Amprat]]; it is recommended to defeat those enemies first.
 
On Brittany's side of the river, there are 2 piles of orange bridge fragments. To access the first, go east from the site where you first exit the cave. Destroy the crystal with Rock Pikmin, and ride the [[Bouncy Mushroom]] to the site of the 20 bridge fragments. Before the Pikmin start carrying them, destroy another crystal next to where you land; if this crystal is not destroyed, the Pikmin will take a dangerous past past 2 Joustmites. The second pile is the most time-consuming pile to get. Destroy the electric gate to the west of the cave exit, and go through it. Destroy the crystals blocking the [[geyser]]s and ride them upwards with a large squad. You will arrive at a [[Whiptongue Bulborb]]. Defeat it, and behind it you'll find the other pile of 30 bridge fragments.
 
After completing the bridge, send both leaders to the site of Brittany's second pile. If you walk east from there (and defeat the [[Arctic Cannon Larva]]), you'll find a ledge with a buried [[Cupid's Grenade]]. Throw a leader and 20 Pikmin up the ledge. Switch to that leader and use the 20 Pikmin to push down an iron ball. This will open up a path to a cave. Go through this cave, avoiding the [[fire]] hazards. Walk out the other side, and destroy the crystal in front of you. You've just arrived at Charlie's crash site. Turn left and walk across the bridge, and you'll arrive in another cave. Throw 10 Yellow Pikmin at the electrode to cause [[Bloominous Stemple]]s to bloom, allowing you to walk to the other side of the room.
 
In the next room, you'll find the boss of the area, the Vehemoth Phosbat. See [[Vehemoth Phosbat#Strategy]] to see how to defeat it. After defeating the boss, you'll unlock [[Captain Charlie]], thereby completing the story segment of the Distant Tundra. To carry the boss and its fruit back to the base, go to the exit opposite the one you entered, and push down a [[paper bag]] to form a ramp to access the main part of the area.
 
===Speed completion===
This guide should help you complete the area's story section in 1 [[day]]. Start by growing all 25 [[Yellow Pikmin]], and then leave the cave. Then, get [[Brittany]] to defeat the [[Swooping Snitchbug]], put 10 Yellow Pikmin on the nearby [[electric gate]], and throw the rest to the other side. Get [[Alph]] to take lots of Rock Pikmin and Red Pikmin out of the Onion, and go to the throwing point via the [[tunnel]]. Throw at least 20 Pikmin to Brittany's side, then go back with the Yellow Pikmin, and start destroying the electric gate and the other tunnel near the landing site. Brittany should take the Red Pikmin and Rock Pikmin and go straight to the pile of fragments on the pot, carrying those after destroying the [[large crystal]] first. Meanwhile, Alph should destroy the [[crystal wall]] and collect the 20 fragments with [[Red Pikmin]] to avoid waiting for the fire to clear. When Brittany's Pikmin are back, send her back to the electric gate. Meanwhile, Alph should use the [[geyser]] to go up to the higher level, and use the remaining Pikmin with the Yellow Pikmin (who should have finished destroying the gate) to carry the other pile of fragments. Brittany should then use the geysers to reach the [[Whiptongue Bulborb]], defeat it, and then carry the last fragment pile. Alph should walk to the bridge as the last pile is being carried, so he can cross the bridge as soon as it is done.
 
Send Alph to where Brittany is, and throw 20 Pikmin up the ledge next to the [[iron ball]]. Throw a leader up the ledge and push down the iron ball, and then walk into the cave. Ignore everything in it and exit out the other side, then turn left after destroying the large crystal. Enter the next cave and activate the [[electrode]]. Walk over the [[Bloominous Stemple]]s to the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]] arena. Defeat the boss using a quick method, such as the one at [[Vehemoth Phosbat#Strategy]]. After that, you're done, as the Distant Tundra is the only area to not involve carrying an item from the boss to the landing site. You can end the day immediately, though if you want to return to the area later, exit the cave back to the main segment of the area and push down the [[paper bag]] first.

==Trivia==
[[File:Syacho.png|thumb|The original location of the Cupid's Grenade.]]
*Part of [[Music in Pikmin 3#Distant Tundra|this level's music]] is a remix of the music from the [[Valley of Repose]].
*This area's continental shape is based on eastern and southeastern Asia.
*This is the only area in ''Pikmin 3'' where rain never falls. However, it sometimes snows in this area, also making it the only area where snow can fall.
*The Cupid's Grenade near the sculpture of the President was originally going to be on top of it.
*By opening the [[radar]] map at the start of a day, it is possible to observe the Phosbats in the entrance room of the Vehemoth Phosbat's cave immediately dying to the lightbulb, if it is activated. In ''Pikmin 3'', the [[Off-TV Play|TV screen]]'s overhead view must be used. In ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'', the green enemy dots on the map can be seen turning gray and eventually vanishing.
