'''Leafy Showdown''' is the fourth [[Dandori Battle]] stage in {{p4}}. It is a large irregularly-shaped arena with high ledges and a puddle of water in the center. In [[Story Mode]], the opponent is the [[Leafling#Leafling Olimar|Olimar leafling]], and it is the only Dandori Battle where [[Dingo]] can't be used to get help. In Dandori Battle mode it is unlocked by completing a match of [[Dandori Castle]]. It has a time limit of 7 minutes.

==How to reach==
First, the player must unlock the [[Hero's Hideaway]] by completing the three previous [[Dandori Battle]] caves: [[Trial Run]], [[Battle in a Box]], and [[Dandori Castle]], and curing the three [[leafling]]s they save from each (the last of which is [[Bernard]]) by [[Night expedition|harvesting glow sap at night]].

Once in the Hero's Hideaway, the cave's entrance can be found within a safe. To unlock it, you must find the three treasures that provide the safe's code: the [[Courage Emblem]], the [[Power Emblem]], and the [[Wisdom Emblem]]. The safe's code will be randomly generated on each playthrough.

==Layout==
The two bases in this symmetrical stage are in open sandy areas in the north and south of the stage. Between them in the center is a small lake where 2 treasures appear, guarded by a [[Hermit Crawmad]] in the middle. Northwest and southeast of the lake are small sandy plateaus where treasures spawn in the middle of the battle, either 4 [[Sunseed Berry|Sunseed Berries]] or 1 [[Insect Condo]]. Between the lake and plateaus there are [[breakable pot]]s that can be destroyed by Oatchi or Moss to provide a shortcut between the bases.

On the west and east sides of the stage there are open areas with nuggets, treasures, and pellets to collect, but enemies and water spouts make the area hazardous. These sections of the stage have open access from one base and are blocked from the other base by a [[crystal wall]], which can be destroyed to allow quicker access to the objects there.

==Strategy==
{{guide}}
Send 2 Pikmin to the nearest Crystal Wall when the match starts, and send the rest to the Pellet Posies near base. Once all Pikmin are out of the Onion, send 2 more Pikmin onto the crystal wall, and head westward. From here, one should take out the water spout with Oatchi, and then either head toward the nearest Gold Nugget pile or the Zest Bomb (depending on what the current Bonus Find is, the Joustmite could also be a target if it is a Bonus Find.) Send about 3 Pikmin onto the Gold Nugget pile if available.

Break the [[Breakable pot|pots]] surrounding the lake sometime within the first minute, in order to open the routes leading to your opponent's base allowing you to steal items they may be attempting to collect.

Return Oatchi to base, and round up any Pikmin left there to take them toward the Crystal Wall. Destroy it fully, and then defeat the Orange Bulborb with a Rush, before sending more Pikmin onto the Gold Nugget Pile behind it, and collecting its corpse with Oatchi. From there, based on the opponent's actions, it would be beneficial to either defeat the Orange Bulborb closest to their base, or fight the Hermit Crawmad and collect one of the Sunseed Berries with Oatchi.

Do not collect the Golden Sniffer once it spawns. Instead, focus on the current Bonus Find, and make routes and plans in your mind to collect the most of them efficiently. Remember to consult your [[Radar Map]] to keep track of object locations. If a Sunseed Berry or Insect Condo is selected as a Bonus Find, check above the two square tower-like structures by the lake. Each will contain either an Insect Condo or cluster of four Sunseed Berries. If a Bonus Find is on its way to the opponent's Onion and you have a decent amount of Pikmin in your squad (about 10-ish), attempt to re-route it toward your Onion. This will knock the opponent's Pikmin down until they cancel other tasks they may be doing to save them, score you a Bonus Find, and prevent the opponent from collecting a Bonus Find.

The [[Sneak Bomb]] will appear by the lake in the center. Its exact location is unimportant, as you should likely move it with Oatchi regardless. Keep track of its position with the Radar Map and plan around it, making sure you have enough Pikmin to carry a noteworthy quantity of the [[Dandorium]] weights at the opponent's base. Switch to Oatchi immediately after it's deposited, else he may be knocked out by any stray Pikmin the opponent left at base.
Confirm that there is a safe route for your Pikmin to take and that the Hermit Crawmad is dead before you attempt to collect Dandorium weights.

==Trivia==
*In [[Music in Pikmin 4#Dandori Battle vs. Olimar?|the music track]] for Leafy Showdown in Story Mode, melodies from both the [[Plasm Wraith]] and [[The Final Trial]] themes play over the course of the song. The former can be heard in the background very subtly, while the latter's is very noticeable and plays as the main melody of the song. In Dandori Battle mode, this arena instead uses [[Music in Pikmin 4#Dandori Battle (Sand Box)|the same music]] as [[Dandori Castle]] and [[Hot Sandy Duel]], even if Olimar is chosen as the opponent.
*The entrance to Leafy Showdown is inside the same safe where Olimar finds the [[Pilot's Seat]] in his [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale|Shipwreck Tale]].
