Editing Wayward Moon

The '''Wayward Moon''' is a [[fruit]] in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. It is a {{w|melon}} found once in story mode, in the [[Garden of Hope]]. 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]]. There is only one in the game's story mode, but it appears in [[Beastly Caverns]] as well, 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 leaders seem amazed by its texture, and as shown in a [[Secret Memo|secret video]], [[Louie]] is fond of the smell. Although similar to a real life {{w|cantaloupe}}, it is simply a Japanese melon due to the object's internal name (<code>melon</code>) and the color of its [[juice]].

==Collecting the fruit==

[[File:Wayward Moon.jpg|thumb|The Wayward Moon's location in the Garden of Hope.]]

The Wayward Moon is dropped by the Quaggled Mireclops. Since Louie is the object of most importance, send Louie 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 should have been taken out, but there might be a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb|Dwarf Bulborb]] on the way back.
