The Lesser Mock Bottom (コシリソックリ?, lit.: "Just Like a Little Butt") is a fruit in Pikmin 3, and a treasure in Pikmin 4. It is a Japanese plum. In Pikmin 3, it is found in the Tropical Wilds, Garden of Hope, and Twilight River, gives one bottle of purple-pink juice (one half in Ultra-Spicy mode), and in Mission Mode, it is worth 50 Pokos. In Pikmin 4, it can be found in Sun-Speckled Terrace and Serene Shores.

Collecting the fruitEdit

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

Tropical WildsEdit

 
Location of the Lesser Mock Bottom in the Tropical Wilds.

The Lesser Mock Bottom in the Tropical Wilds is found near some Pyroclasmic Slooches. From the small bridge near the land site, turn right and go past the waterfall. There will then be a dirt mound, and beyond that, some Pyroclasmic Slooches. There will be a cluster of Spotcaps, and next to them is the fruit. Make sure to have taken care of the Hermit Crawmad near the base to ensure an easy collection.

Garden of HopeEdit

 
Location of the Lesser Mock Bottom in the Garden of Hope.

The Lesser Mock Bottom in the Garden of Hope is in the second half of the area, accessible only after Louie runs off. Near where the pot-shaped bridge is/would be is a high ledge with a Flukeweed. With at least 3 Winged Pikmin, charge the Flukeweed from under the water. If the teacup is built, it is possible to throw a leader over with some Winged Pikmin, but charging should be enough to retrieve the fruit.

Twilight RiverEdit

 
Location of the Lesser Mock Bottom in the Twilight River.

The Lesser Mock Bottom in the Twilight River is in the area where Winged Pikmin are discovered, hidden under a Flukeweed. It is under the Flukeweed closest to the river and requires three Winged Pikmin to uproot. Simply have the Winged Pikmin carry the fruit over the river to the S.S. Drake.

Collecting the treasureEdit

The strategies shown are just suggestions.

Sun-Speckled TerraceEdit

There is a Lesser Mock Bottom hidden inside a jar in the northwestern section of the overworld. To collect it, you must rush the jar with Oatchi to break it, then throw 3 Pikmin at it. The Pikmin will go up the slope, triggering three Female Sheargrubs to crawl up from the dirt, but they can be safely ignored.

Serene ShoresEdit

There is a Lesser Mock Bottom buried under a sand mound in the northwestern corner of the overworld, just beyond the wall east of the Dandori Challenge. It can be found with the Treasure Gauge or Oatchi. To collect this treasure, you must throw 3 Pikmin at it.

Notes

Brittany's notes

  US version
This fruit's flesh is soft and pale yellow. It's juicy and has a sweet-sour flavor. I must also note that it's shaped almost exactly like a baby's bottom. While the scientific merit of this observation is debatable, the adorability is not.
  European version
This fruit's flesh is soft and pale yellow. It's juicy and has a sweet-sour flavor. I must also note that it's shaped almost exactly like a baby's bottom. What the scientific merit of this observation is, I have no idea.

Schnauz's notesEdit

It's true—the rounded surface of this fruit is smooth as a baby's bottom. Meanwhile, the pale yellow flesh inside offers a refreshing flavor profile that is at once sweet and also sour. Really, as fruits go, it has much to offer.

Olimar's notesEdit

One whiff of this fruit will have your mouth watering, but the taste itself is sour and slightly disappointing. However, you can't let results like this keep you from trying new things. There's no greater quality than an adventurous spirit!

Louie's notesEdit

Cut the fruit into smaller pieces and crush, squeezing out the juice. Add gelatin to the juice, pour into molds, and refrigerate for half a day. Remove jellies from mold and devour!
