Where to Find Moss in Olimar's Shipwreck Tale

North of Blossoming Arcadia's First Base

Moss is located north of the first base in Blossoming Arcadia, past the climbing wall near a bonfire altar.

You will need to use Red Pikmin to grab the fire starter from the bonfire altar and throw at a bunch of straws and the straw wall south of the area. This creates a shortcut near the base which will allow you to send in Pikmin to build the climbing wall faster.

Olimar's Shipwreck Tale Tips and Tricks

Olimar's Shipwreck Tale Tips and Tricks





Spend the First Day in Each Area Defeating Enemies and Clearing Obstacles

Pikmin 4 - Spend the First Day in Each Area Defeating Enemies and Clearing Obstacles

It is recommended to use the first day to clear the area of enemies and obstacles. This will make it easier for you to find and collect all the parts within the 15 day time limit.

Use Nectar to Make the Pikmin Move Faster

Always make sure to use any nectar that you can find to make your Pikmin move faster. This makes finding and transporting Ship Parts much faster. You can also use the Ultra-Spicy Spray to achieve the same effect.

Find Eggs to Get Nectar

Pikmin 4 - Find Eggs to Get Nectar

One way to find nectar is to find and break eggs. The eggs will drop nectar which you can use to increase your Pikmin's movement speed.

How to Get Nectar

Obtain the Flarlics First in Each Location

Pikmin 4 - Obtain the Flarlics First in Each Location
Flarlics increase the maximum number of Pikmins that you can deploy. Focus on finding these first as this allows you to assign more tasks of your Pikmin.

All Flarlic Locations

Get Moss Before Exploring Blossoming Arcadia

Pikmin 4 - Get Moss Before Exploring Blossoming Arcadia
