This cave is found near the back of the area accessed from across the buildable bridge near the Sunwashed Plateau. Next to the potted plant, it can be found behind a stone wall, requiring 3 [[bomb rock]]s to destroy it. You can buy these from [[Russ]], though bomb rocks can also be found in multiple dirt mounds around the area.

===Plot===
===Plot===
Captain Olimar lands in the Blossoming Arcadia to continue his search for any missing parts for his ship, the [[S.S. Dolphin]]. He manages to find eight of his missing pieces along with the discovery of Blue Pikmin and a space dog called [[Moss]]. He finds Moss lying on the ground and feeds her a [[scrummy bone]], which revitalizes her. She then chooses to help Olimar in his search to recover his lost ship parts.

=== Layout ===
=== Layout ===
The layout of the Blossoming Arcadia in Olimar's Shipwreck Tale is almost identical to that of the one in the main game. The major differences are the objects and enemies present, along with the caves entrances not being present. The body of water that is usually in the centre of the map is now a body a mud. Unlike water, the mud does not prohibit none Blue Pikmin to cross it, but slows down anything that wades through it.

The Blossoming Arcadia (花ふぶきの楽園?, lit.: "Paradise of Falling Flower Petals") is the second main area in Pikmin 4. It takes place in a kindergarten playground, with a visible elephant slide in the background. This area has Sparklium × 4,878 worth of treasure, of which Sparklium × 1,580 is above ground.

Plot[edit]

In the story, the Rescue Corps spread out to this area in search of Captain Olimar, and the Red Leafling.

Layout[edit]

The following article or section is in need of assistance from someone who plays Pikmin 4.
Particularly: Describe the layout of the area and its key sections.

The following notable features can be found in this area.

  • As part of the playable terrain:
    • Various sandy and dirt terrain.
    • Blue fences, some of them with drawings of colored fish and algae.
    • Azure tubes or a hose along the floor.
    • An upturned yellow bucket.
    • A small wooden model house.
    • A landing spot identified as "Fragrant Ravine".
  • As part of the background:
    • A very large house, with a pink roof and a front porch awning.
    • Large car tires, in red, yellow, and blue colors.
    • A cyan playground slide styled like an elephant.
    • Playground castles.
    • Cherry blossom trees.

Bases[edit]

  • Fragrant Ravine: the default landing site.
  • Sunwashed Plateau: guarded by a Creeping Chrysanthemum.
  • Misshapen Pond: unguarded.

Dandori Challenge 1[edit]

The entrance is found at the top of the buildable climbing wall past the Misshapen Pond base (on the way to the Kingdom of Beasts), with the only other obstacle being the nearby Waddlequaff.

Dandori Challenge 2[edit]

This cave is found near the back of the area accessed from across the buildable bridge near the Sunwashed Plateau. Next to the potted plant, it can be found behind a stone wall, requiring 3 Bomb Rocks to destroy it. You can buy these from Russ, though Bomb Rocks can also be found in multiple dirt mounds around the area.

Dandori Battle[edit]

A Dandori Battle cave can be found near the first base, Fragrant Ravine. It is found toward the center river, on top of a large box. There are no obstacles obstructing its entrance. The player can find the same leafy individual that was in Sun-Speckled Terrace holding another castaway.

Music Olimar's Shipwreck Tale: Blossoming Arcadia

The Blossoming Arcadia is the second area Captain Olimar explores in his Shipwreck Tale.

Plot[edit]

Captain Olimar lands in the Blossoming Arcadia to continue his search for any missing parts for his ship, the S.S. Dolphin. He manages to find eight of his missing pieces along with the discovery of Blue Pikmin and a space dog called Moss. He finds Moss lying on the ground and feeds her a Scrummy Bone, which revitalizes her. She then chooses to help Olimar in his search to recover his lost ship parts.

Layout[edit]

The layout of the Blossoming Arcadia in Olimar's Shipwreck Tale is almost identical to that of the one in the main game. The major differences are the objects and enemies present, along with the caves entrances not being present. The body of water that is usually in the centre of the map is now a body of mud. Unlike water, the mud does not prohibit non-Blue Pikmin to cross it, but slows down anything that wades through it.

Bases[edit]

  • Fragrant Ravine: unguarded.
  • Sunwashed Plateau: the default landing site
  • Misshapen Pond: unguarded.
