The '''Wayward Moon''' is a [[fruit]] in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. It is a green cantaloupe found once in Story Mode, in the [[Garden of Hope]]. It is worth 3 total bottles of juice, the most out of any fruit, tied with the [[Crimson Banquet]]. It is spat out by the [[Quaggled Mireclops]] after its defeat, along with [[Captain Louie|Louie]]. There is only one in the game. The captains seem amazed by its texture, and as shown in a secret video, [[Louie]] is fond of the smell. In [[Mission Mode]], the Wayward Moon is found in the [[Beastly Caverns]], located to the immediate southeast of the starting area. Its value is 1,000 Pokos, the most out of any whole fruit (again, tied with the Crimson Banquet).

The '''Wayward Moon''' ({{j|オミマイノミ|Omimai no Mi|Fruit of Meeting a Patient in the Hospital}}) is a [[fruit]] in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' and a [[treasure]] in {{p4}}. It is a type of {{w|Cucumis melo|muskmelon}}, called the crown melon, although it bears semblance to a real life {{w|cantaloupe}}. In ''Pikmin 3'', it is worth 3 total bottles of juice (one and a half in [[difficulty|Ultra-Spicy mode]]), the most out of any fruit, tied with the [[Crimson Banquet]]. It is spat out by the [[Quaggled Mireclops]] after its defeat, along with [[Louie]]. In [[Mission Mode]], it appears in [[Beastly Caverns]], located to the immediate southeast of the starting area. Its value is {{pokos|1000|y}}, the most out of any whole fruit (again, tied with the Crimson Banquet). In ''Pikmin 4'', it can be found in the [[Blossoming Arcadia]] and later in the [[Cavern for a King]].
 
The leaders seem amazed by its texture, and as shown in an unused [[Secret Memo|secret video]], [[Louie]] is fond of the smell.

The Wayward Moon is dropped by the [[Quaggled Mireclops]]. Since the Hocotatian is the object of most importance, send the Hocotatian ahead before trying to collect this fruit. It is the heaviest whole fruit in the game, so it is advised to put the maximum of 30 Pikmin on it, and to refrain from letting [[Winged Pikmin]] carry it, as Winged Pikmin [[carry]] objects slower. All enemies in the way of the carrying path should have been taken out, but there might be a [[Dwarf Bulborb]] on the way back.

== Collecting the treasure ==
{{guide}}
 
=== Blossoming Arcadia ===
There is a Wayward Moon lying beneath a water sprinkler on the westernmost side of the overworld. It is guarded by two [[Yellow Wollywog]]s, which should be defeated before attempting to collect this treasure, although it is not strictly necessary. To collect this treasure, you must either throw 50 [[Blue Pikmin]] at it, or construct the nearby [[clay]] valve to get rid of the water from the sprinkler, and then throw 50 Pikmin at it. Another strategy is to have [[Oatchi]] retrieve it, as long as he has learned Super Buff level 3 and Doggy-Paddle.
 
=== Cavern for a King ===
{{See also|Smoky Progg#Strategy|t1=Smoky Progg strategy}}
There is a Wayward Moon inside of the [[Smoky Progg]] at the center of sublevel 10 of the [[Cavern for a King]]. To collect this treasure, you must first defeat the Smoky Progg, then throw 50 Pikmin at it. There is [[Glitches in Pikmin 4#Wayward Moon duplication|a glitch]] where you can obtain this treasure in Cavern for a King even after you already collected it.

==Notes==
A Wayward Moon is one of the treasures that can be acquired in the browser game ''[[Pikmin Finder]]''.
===Brittany's American Comments===
''"Once you get past the tough, cratered exterior, this fruit is a refined, almost delicate flavor. Kind of reminds me of the Captain, except he's all exterior."''
===Brittany's European Comments===
''"Once you get past the coarse, cratered exterior you'll find that this fruit is delicate and sweet on the inside. That's probably how the Captain sees himself, actually. Personally I think the resemblance ends at the coarse, cratered part."''
