m (CrazyCow moved page Brick wall to Stubborn rocks: As 2B stated in the talk page, the most official name should be the unused internal name, stubborn rocks. I would still not consider this name official/canon, however, due to being unused content. It's still more legit than stone bricks tho. Grammar; when described as a wall, it means )

Because this subject has no official name, the name "stubborn rocks" is conjectural.

Stubborn rocks[1] are walls of stones in Pikmin 3 that can only be destroyed by pushing iron balls down a slope. They cannot be locked-on to, as there is no way to destroy them without a ball. They also don't appear on the radar in any mode but Side Stories, where they're represented with black ovals. In this mode, they're found in every day except The Ship Restored, but are never paired with iron balls, instead acting as undestroyable barriers or cosmetic additions, alongside cinderblocks and wooden signs.

Locations

The following article or section is in need of assistance from someone who plays Pikmin 3 Deluxe.
Particularly: List all Olimar's Comeback locations.

Story Mode
  • Distant Tundra: One wall at the exit of the cave where Brittany lands upon first arriving in the Distant Tundra. It must be destroyed to exit the cave and start the day properly, without the use of glitches. Another is found in the northern section of the main area with the geysers and Arctic Cannon Larvae. Destroying it gives access to the large cave system where the Vehemoth Phosbat is found. Two leaders must be used to access the ledge where the iron ball can be pushed down from, restricting access to the cave until Alph and Brittany are reunited. This one is surrounded by 2 snow pillars resembling those of dirt walls.
Bingo Battle
  • Jigsaw Fortress: One wall in layout B, which can be destroyed by pushing an iron ball at the top of the toy castle.
  • Rusted Labyrinth: Two walls neighboring eachother in the center of layout C, which can both be destroyed with a single iron ball.
Side Stories

Gallery

This article or section is in need of more images. Particularly:
A good photo of a "string" of connected stubborn rocks in Side Stories, also the 3 sets of stubborn rocks around the strawberry in Olimar's Assignment as they look odd.
You can help Pikipedia by uploading some images.

Trivia

  • When stubborn rocks are destroyed by an iron ball, they make the sound of a bowling ball knocking over bowling pins.
