Stubborn rocks

Revision as of 21:46, July 9, 2024 by CrazyCow (talk | contribs) (Because of their prevelence in Side Stories, it's fair to give them their own article. A comparison in terms of prevelence are wooden stakes in Hey! Pikmin, which also have their own article. This isn't a section of the iron ball article because brick walls are not always tied to them as of Side Stories, nor are iron balls always tied to brick walls (as with the one in Formidable Oak). Note: Internal name in Pikmin 3 is "wall359" while iron balls are "rock359.")

Brick walls (conjectural name) are walls in Pikmin 3 that can only be destroyed by pushing iron balls down a slope. They consist of a stack of gray stone bricks. 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. They're found in every Side Story 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 at the exit of the cave where Brittany lands upon first arriving in the Distant Tundra. This wall must be destroyed to exit the cave and start the day properly, without the use of glitches. There is another in the northern section of the main area with the geysers and Arctic Cannon Larvae. Destroying the wall 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 in layout B, which can be destroyed by pushing an iron ball at the top of the toy castle.
  • Rusted Labyrinth: Two 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 brick walls in Side Storie, also the 3 brick walls around the strawberry in Olimar's Assignment as they looks odd.
You can help Pikipedia by uploading some images.

Trivia

  • When a brick wall is destroyed by an iron ball, it makes the sound of a bowling ball knocking over bowling pins.
