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]]''. 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]]. 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).

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==

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==
There is a Wayward Moon lying beneath a water sprinkler on the left side of the [[Blossoming Arcadia]]. 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 throw 50 Pikmin at it.
