Dandori Castle is the third Dandori Battle stage in Pikmin 4. It is an asymmetric stage set in a sandbox, with one player starting on top of a castle and the other starting at the base. In Story Mode, the opponent is the Olimar leafling. In Dandori Battle mode is it unlocked by completing a match of Battle in a Box. It has a time limit of 5 minutes.

How to reach

See: Dandori Battle#Locations

It will be either in the Sun-Speckled Terrace, Blossoming Arcadia, or Serene Shores, depending on which Dandori Battle is entered third.

Layout

This asymmetric stage is in a square-shaped sandbox. One base is in the southwest at ground level, with flat areas along the west and south sides. The castle occupies the northeast part of the arena, and has ramps up to it. Initially there is only one path up to the castle from ground level, but by destroying an electric gate and pulling down a clipboard, a second path can be used. When this stage is played in Story Mode, the player will always be at ground level and the Olimar leafling will be at the top, but in Dandori Battle mode, either the blue side or pink side can be in either base location, and it is randomly decided, though it will not change when the battle is restarted, and can only change by exiting and re-entering the battle.

This stage is populated by Aristocrab Offspring, Bearded Amprats, and Shearfleas, which block many carrying routes and have to be defeated to carry objects safely. Treasures can be found scattered around the arena. In the northwest corner there are two Sunseed Berries on high columns, and between them an Armored Cannon Larva is hiding buried in the sand. A Golden Sniffer will appear behind this enemy during the battle.
