The Crimson Banquet (ヒトタマデラマンプク, One Ball Fulfill) is a watermelon found in Pikmin 3 after being regurgitated by the Sandbelching Meerslug, and as a treasure in Pikmin 4. In Pikmin 3, it is originally intact, however, it smashes into many chunks upon hitting the ground. In Pikmin 4, it is found whole.
It realistically smashes into pieces of varying size, including a small chunk, which takes a single Pikmin to carry. There are two pieces that take 5 Pikmin to carry, two pieces that take 8 Pikmin to carry and a particularly large piece that requires 15 Pikmin to carry.
If all pieces of this fruit are carried back to Drake, the total amount of juice will equal three full canisters, the maximum total any fruit can give.
Notes[]
Brittany's American Comments[]
"It's huge, super juicy, and filled with tons of seeds to take home and cultivate! How is this thing even real?"
Brittany's European Comments[]
"It's huge, super juicy, and filled with tons of seeds to take home and cultivate! What an incredible find!"
Schnauz's Notes[]
"This thing is enormous... It's the size of an asteroid, with hard, striped skin. It's not very inviting. So what a surprise it was to find that its insides are bursting with crimson juice. And seeds too! Plant these in the garden, and maybe more tasty asteroids will grow."
Olimar's Notes[]
"I look at this fruit and am instantly overcome by the urge to split it into a million pieces. I closed my eyes to avoid the thought, but the impulse just got stronger. I must be holding on to a deep desire to take on and defeat a giant spherical obstacle..."
Louie's Notes[]
"Sprinkle with a hint of salt to enhance its sweetness."
Glitch[]
There is a rare but rather harmful glitch that can occur in Pikmin 3. If the pieces are left overnight in the area, there is a possibility that one of them will not appear on any of the following days, making it impossible to collect all of the fruit.
Trivia[]
- It is the only fruit that must be collected in parts to have the parts vary in size and weight.
- Although the part that takes 15 Pikmin to carry appears to be more than half the watermelon, the weight is clearly less than half the overall weight.
- The Crimson Banquet is one of two fruits in Pikmin 3 that can produce three cups of juice, the other being the Wayward Moon, another fruit dropped by a boss.
- In a 7-day run of the game, this is the only fruit that needs to be collected.
