The '''Formidable Oak''' is the final area of ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. It is home to the final boss, the [[Plasm Wraith]]. The area requires the use of all five Pikmin types discovered over the course of Story Mode. Most of the map is a massive cave system, in which the Plasm Wraith chases the player through. There are no fruits to collect in this area, making it the only area that is possible to complete within a single day.


 
The '''Formidable Oak''' is the fifth and last area in [[Pikmin 3]]. It contains several enemies that act the same as before but will burst into golden goo and disappear instead of leaving a carcass. The player must transport [[Olimar]] (using 5 to 10 Pikmin) through the maze of puzzles and enemies making sure the [[Plasm Wraith]] doesn't catch up to Olimar. After transporting Olimar outside, the final boss fight with the Plasm Wraith will automatically begin.
==Environment==
The Formidable Oak is a large termite hill found in a desert/steppe climate. From the top of the termite hill, one can access the cave system, which is the largest cave system in ''Pikmin 3''. It boasts much biodiversity, having enemies like the Arachnode and the Bearded Amprat all in the same cave. This area is also home to all known species of [[Candypop Bud]]s in ''Pikmin 3.'' This cave is also home to some enemies that are found nowhere else, such as the Watery Blowhog and the Shearwig. However, whenever enemies are defeated, they explode into plasm, possibly meaning that the only enemy in this area is the Plasm Wraith, and all other enemies are illusions. South of the landing site is a circular arena which is where the Plasm Wraith is fought. Interestingly, the pattern on the ground of the arena resembles the few islands near the [[Smoky Progg]]'s egg from the Distant Spring in ''[[Pikmin]].''

==Trivia==
*This location's continental shape is based on India.
*This is the only level in which [[Shearwig]]s and a [[Watery Blowhog]] appear in Story Mode. However, since they are just illusions created by the Plasm Wraith, it could be said they do not appear in Story Mode at all.
*The music which plays outside during rain is similar to the music which plays at [[The Final Trial]].
*Because every creature here is an illusion, it could also be said that the only creatures here are a Nectarous Dandelfly and the Plasm Wraith. 
*It is possible to get out of bounds here, making it so the player can go through the cave backwards. This makes it much easier to retrieve Captain Olimar and complete the game faster. However, actually having a captain climbing to the top of the Oak where the Plasm Wraith is first encountered will cause a severe gamebreaking sequence of displaced camera positioning and unused cutscenes.
*Although it is said to be a tree, this level is actually one of several termite hills on this desert continent. Other hills like this can be seen in the background.
*To completely finish the maze (Including Data Files), the only Pikmin required are Yellow Pikmin and Rock Pikmin. However, other Pikmin types are recommended for convenience. 
* The area where the [[Plasm Wraith]] is fought has a similar pattern on the ground as the area where the [[Smoky Progg]] egg is found in [[The Distant Spring]].
* By using the camera to look upward, the player can notice that the cave inside the Oak has no roof.

This page is part of the merge with Pikmin Wiki, and needs resolving. Please bear with us as we do so.

Before the import, this subject had a page both on Pikipedia and Pikmin Wiki. You are currently reading the Pikipedia version, and the Pikmin Wiki version can be found here. Both versions need to be manually merged together and placed on the current page.

The Formidable Oak is the fifth and last area in Pikmin 3. It contains several enemies that act the same as before but will burst into golden goo and disappear instead of leaving a carcass. The player must transport Olimar (using 5 to 10 Pikmin) through the maze of puzzles and enemies making sure the Plasm Wraith doesn't catch up to Olimar. After transporting Olimar outside, the final boss fight with the Plasm Wraith will automatically begin.
