The Searing Acidshock (セイコウノモト) is a fruit found in Pikmin 3. It somewhat resembles the ume fruit which is a Japanese plum or a green, unripened necterine. It takes 3 Pikmin to carry, and is found in the Twilight River, the Tropical Wilds, and the Garden of Hope.

It also bears a resemblance to the Lesser Mock Bottom.

Notes

Brittany's American Notes

"Ack! Sour! So Sour! I feel like my taste buds have been sucker punched! We can't afford to waste edible fruit, but this one will need to be pickled or something before anyone would willingly eat it. On the plus side, I'll never forget that face Alph made..."

Brittany's European Notes

"Ooh! Sour! so sour! I feel like my taste buds have been turned inside-out! We can't afford to waste edible fruit, but this one will need to be pickled or something before anyone would willingly eat it. On the plus side, I'll never forget the face that Alph made..."


Trivia

  • Umes are often pickled, turning into the dish umeboshi, or Japanese salt plums.  They have a strong sour and salty taste. This is why Brittany suggested pickling the Searing Acidshock to make it more palatable.
