Mission Mode is the Challenge Mode of Pikmin 3. In Mission Mode, the player can complete one of three possible challenges, each which are 5-15 minutes long and are meant to help improve the player's Pikmin skills: Gather the Fruit, Battle Enemies, and Defeat Bosses.
There are 5 stages in Mission Mode. For details on them, click the name of the area to go to its page:
All modes in Mission Mode support 2-player split-screen co-op.[1]
Gather the Fruit
The goal in Gather the Fruit Mode is to use the provided Pikmin to collect as many fruit and enemy carcasses as possible on the map within a limited amount of time. When fruit is hauled back to the SPERO, their value will be converted to Pokos. The player's score will be based on how many total Pokos were earned and how long it took to complete the area. When enemies are defeated, additional Pokos will be added to the score and more fruit will drop onto the stage. Pikmin are found either buried, scattered across the map in little groups, or inside certain enemies, like the Medusal Slurker.
When a level is complete, the player can watch a top-down playback of the entire level session, showing icons to indicate the captains, fruits, enemies, and Pikmin.
Depending on how many Pokos you obtain, you will receive a ranking. From worst to best, they are Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. To obtain a Platinum ranking, you must collect all fruit and enemy corpses on the map before time runs out. This ranking system works similarly in the Battle Enemies and Defeat Bosses modes.
Battle Enemies
The objective of this mode is to defeat creatures to collect their spirits to score points. The enemies you defeat hold a certain amount of spirits. For example, the Swooping Snitchbug holds up to 30 spirit points. Once the timer is up, the spirits that you have collected are counted as your score.
