Editing Hidden mural

{{game icons|p3=y}}
{{spoiler}}
Throughout {{p3}} there are '''hidden murals''' &ndash; these are fifteen small abstract drawings of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] doing various tasks. They are normally found in dark or not-so-obvious locations, and most of the time are too small to see clearly, so to view them with detail, the [[KopPad]]'s camera feature is necessary. The origin of these murals is currently unknown, and it is not clear if these are rock paintings or if they are engravings, known as {{w|petroglyph}}s. Each [[area]] in story mode has three drawings. Each area contains drawings of only one Pikmin type, usually the Pikmin type found in that area, and each of the markings there represents that Pikmin in a different [[maturity]].

In ''Pikmin 3'', these drawings are simply [[Easter egg]]s with no in-game reward for finding them, but in {{p3d}}, their existence is acknowledged by Olimar,{{cite quote|While exploring this planet, I often see what appear to be murals. Did the Pikmin draw these? Because they capture each Pikmin's essence perfectly-much more artistically that I would be capable of. I must remember to take photographic documentation.|Captain Olimar|Olimar's Log Vol. 2, file 3}} and taking photos of the murals with the KopPad's camera earns the player [[badge (Pikmin 3 Deluxe)|badges]].

==Badges==
In {{p3d}}, there are two [[badge (Pikmin 3 Deluxe)|badges]] the player can gain from taking photos of the hidden murals:
*'''Archaeology Hobbyist''': Taking photos of five hidden murals.
*'''Legendary Archaeologist''': Taking photos of all fifteen hidden murals.
<gallery>
Badge 24 archaeologyhobbyist.png|Archaeology Hobbyist. The badge shows the bud Red Pikmin mural from the Tropical Wilds, the first one accessible.
Badge 35 legendaryarchaeologist.png|Legendary Archaeologist. The badge shows the bud Blue Pikmin mural from the Formidable Oak, the last one accessible.

==Other drawings==
[[File:Twilight River lightbulb carving.jpg|thumb|right|The carving at the Twilight River.]]
In the [[Twilight River]], there is a carving of sorts of three [[Yellow Pikmin]] holding hands, not unlike the drawing at the [[Distant Tundra]]. It can be found at the base of the light-bulb in the [[Twilight River]]'s cave, facing the water. This does not count as a hidden mural, despite the similarities.

In addition, in {{p3d}} most [[gate]]s have some feature on them to help distinguish between them. [[Dirt wall]]s have simple line designs drawn on them, and [[reinforced wall]]s have drawings in a similar style to the hidden murals.
