Alternatively, you could go to the room in front of you and throw your [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] on the two [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s and pluck the [[Red Pikmin]] sprouts. Go to your left and hop on [[Oatchi]] and rush through the two [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s and to the room with [[Ice Pikmin]] sprouts and pluck them. Then rush through the Dwarf Bulbears again, defeating them, and try to hit the [[Spotty Bulbear]] in the rear. After you defeat it, go back to the room with the [[Bulborb]] and beat it up. Then, after defeating it, pick up the [[Bomb rock]] and charge your Ice Pikmin at the [[Ice gate]]. Walk though the iron bars and throw your Pikmin at the [[Fiery Bulblax]] and defeat it. Go to the left and defeat the [[Whiptongue Bulborb]], then pluck the Ice Pikmin. Once the Ice gate is broken, call Oatchi and go behind you to the room with the [[Sticky mold]] and charge everyone towards the mushrooms. After it is removed, jump on the [[Bouncy Mushroom]] and pluck the Pikmin and go right. Trick the [[Frosty Bulborb]] into the [[Fire geyser]], melting the ice on its back, and rush it. After defeating it, go forward, and take out your [[Bomb rock]] and throw it in the middle of the [[Orange  Bulborb]] and [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]] particularly from outside their territory so they don't move away from it.

Start by immediately sending your [[Winged Pikmin]] on the webbed [[Sphere of Heart]], and your [[White Pikmin]] to the [[Sphere of Desire]] on the floor right under the starting point. Go with your [[Rock Pikmin]] to uproot the seven White Pikmin next to the [[White Onion]], and use [[Rush]] at the [[Armoured Cannon Larva]] to kill it. Rush through the poison mushrooms with [[Oatchi]], kill the [[Miniature Snootwhacker|Miniature Snootwhackers]] with a Rush and send seven Winged Pikmin to the climbing stick leading to the [[Sphere of Vitality]]. Send seven Rock Pikmin to uproot and carry the burrowed [[Sphere of Beginnings]]. At this point, you should be able to use the [[Idler's Alert]] to get your first fourteen [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] from the first treasures back. Get the webbed [[Sphere of Good Fortune]] down using Winged Pikmin, and take the path towards the [[Mammoth Snootwhacker]]. On the way, kill the [[Moldy Dwarf Bulborb|Moldy Dwarf Bulborbs]] using Oatchi's [[Rush]], collect the [[Ultra-Spicy Spray]] from the left egg in the dead-end, and get the White Pikmin you got to carry the [[Sphere of Family]]. Kill the Mammoth Snootwhacker using the Rock Pikmin you have and the Ultra-Spicy Spray, get the replacement Ultra-Spicy Spray it drops, get the [[Sphere of Calm]] using Winged Pikmin, and send some remaining White Pikmin or Rock Pikmin to dig up the Onion while the last treasures are getting transported. Prepare 20 Winged Pikmin once you have all the treasures, give them the Ultra-Spicy Spray and rush them towards the Onion as soon as the gate opens. If the time is low, use White Pikmin or Oatchi with [[Swallow]] instead.

*In the 9th story, the boss music speeds up when less than a minute remains on the clock.

*It is possible to carry enemy corpses back to the [[S.S. Beagle]] in all stories except the 8th, which contains no enemies. There is never an incentive to do this however (unlike other Dandori Challenges), so the Sage Leaf will warn the player character if they do it.

*Many of the stories in the Trial of the Sage Leaf are remixed versions of previously existing Dandori Challenges and cave sublevels in ''[[Pikmin 4]]''.

**1st Story: Bulblaxes is a modified version of [[Cliff-Hanger's Hold]].

**2nd Story: Snow Problem is a modified version of [[Hefty Haulway]].

**3rd Story: Dig Deep is a modified version of [[Oasis of Order]].

**4th Story: Dandori Seas is a modified version of [[Planning Pools]].

**7th Story: One Fell Jump is a modified version of sublevel 4 of the [[Secluded Courtyard]].

**8th Story: Crowded Kitchen is a modified version of [[Rockaway Cellars]].

**9th Story: Turf Turmoil is a modified version of [[Toggle Training]].

**10th Story: The Purple Key is a modified version of sublevel 3 of the [[Engulfed Castle]]

**Unlike other stories that use modified versions of maps that are already in ''Pikmin 4'', 5th Story: The White Key uses a recreated version of the [[cave unit]] seen on sublevel 5 of [[Subterranean Complex]] and sublevel 4 of [[Dream Den]].
