Dandori Battle

A Dandori Battle can be found near the 1st base, Blossoming Dunes. To the left, the cave's entrance is surrounded by water. As the player and Oatchi are immune to water, they can simply travel up the slope to access the entrance. However, to transport the castaway earned from completing the battle safely, it's recommended the bridge connecting the cave to the mainland is built or the water surrounding it is frozen.
