Editing The Final Trial

'''The Final Trial''' ({{j|最後の試練|Saigo no Shiren|Final Trial}}) is the fifth and last [[area]] in {{p1}}. As its name suggests, it serves as a final test of the player's knowledge on the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. It is unlocked by collecting 29 [[ship part]]s, one less than the total number of parts. The final ship part, the [[Secret Safe]], is found within the [[Emperor Bulblax]], the final boss of the game, in this area. It is set in a sandy forest, and has a complex layout that encourages the use of all 3 Pikmin types. This area was reused in {{p2}} as part of the [[Wistful Wild]].

In the south of the area lies the landing site, along with three different types of Candypop Bud. (Since Pikmin cannot be produced here unless the [[boss]] is killed, these are the only way to increase the population of a Pikmin type (at the expense of another type).) To the north, the area "splits" into three paths. The left path focuses on [[Red Pikmin]], due to the [[fire geysers]]. The center path contains water which only [[Blue Pikmin]] can traverse through. And the path on the right contains [[bomb-rock]]s, which only [[Yellow Pikmin]] can hold. The central part of the area contains a small pool of water. To the west of it, there is a narrow path with fire geysers. To the east are a group of small islands with 8 [[bomb-rock]]s, although sometimes 9 appear instead. In the middle of the pool are two bridges and a normal stone [[gate]]. To the north is a [[cardboard box]].

In Challenge Mode, a Yellow Wollywog is found in the pool, and a Beady Long Legs attacks Olimar after he enters the arena. A Burrowing Snagret is found in the cliffs around it. Smaller enemies are found around Olimar's base, such as a Dwarf Red Bulborb, Dwarf Bulbears, and Sheargrubs. Unlike in the other levels, 100 Pikmin are already present on the map, buried in various locations.

The Final Trial is unique among [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]] stages in that the player starts with 100 Pikmin, enough to reach the [[Pikmin limit]]. However, most of these Pikmin are scattered around the area in small groups of sprouts, meaning to expand their [[squad]] size, the player doesn't have to collect the objects near the landing site, they have to explore the area for the other sprouts, while collecting things at the same time to increase the total number of Pikmin. The boss arena contains a [[Beady Long Legs]], and there is also a [[Burrowing Snagret]] nearby. The maximum number of Pikmin obtainable is 299, and the time limit is 13 minutes and 30 seconds, the same as a normal [[day]].
