Dandori Challenges

Pikmin 4 has a variety of Sublevel Caves for you to explore and these include Dandori-style caves. There are two types of Dandori caves, Dandori Challenges and Dandori Battles. On this page of IGN's Pikmin 4 guide, we'll explain what Dandori Challenges are, and where to find them.

What are Dandori Challenges

There are 12 Dandori Challenge caves for you to complete across the game. In Dandori Challenges, you'll have a certain amount of time to collect every treasure and creature in the cave. These will get increasingly harder as you progress through the game, with more to collect in a shorter amount of time. This is where your Dandori is really put into practice, and you'll need to gather Pikmin and delegate them efficiently to get a Platinum Score in every challenge.

In the table below, we've listed each of the Dandori Challenges in the game. Click on the location of the Dandori Challenge to jump to a map pinpointing where you can find the Dandori Challenge cave. If you click on the name of the Dandori Challenge, you'll be taken to a dedicated page that shows you how to get a Platinum Score for it.
