In Pikmin 3, the goal is to collect fruit. But it's also the way you collect juice, which you need to survive for longer than 3 days.
...so what happens if you don't (technically) collect any fruit?

Time to find out what happens if you attempt to beat Pikmin 3 fruitless.
Yes, that's a pun, and I'm not sorry about it.

    Okay, surely NOW the rivalry between PressA! and myself can end. It's not like there's several Pikmin games left to play, right? ...guys?

    "Pikmin might be too hard for you. Go back to Dark Souls." 😂
  • @dragondan6243
    The fact that each grape isn't its own fruit fills me with... what's the word? Anger? Fury? Something along those lines.
  • YOU! I’ve been trapped in a rabbit hole of niche Pikmin challenge run content for weeks because of you! I haven’t been able to- ooh, is that a Pikmin 4 minimum pikmin run?
  • @TeslaX106
    27:22 I feel so bad for you Lemon. The Maestro is the most cheeseable boss in Pikmin 3. It only targets your active captain, so you can park one behind the lone mushroom in the arena to bait attacks with minimal risk.

    We were sent on a mission to collect fruit for our home planet but after a crash landing we decided it would be more fruitful to just go home and let someone else handle it.
  • That "Victory is Mine!!!" After the Fruit counter didnt move up is complete perfection, and you're technically correct, the best kind of correct
  • @raaznak
    I don't think Lemon can beat any game without fruit. Sometimes you have to take a look in the mirror.
  • @LiftMasterDC-6
    You actually lost pikmin to the Armored Mawdad, I've never seen that before. That should be an achievement like the "Welcome to Dark Souls" Achievement when you die.
  • @Warior4355
    Biggest advice for early game terraria with your rules…. Beenades. Grenades…. Full of BEEEEEESSSSS
  • @ritakaiori4370
    Ah, another great day of watching Lemon endanger his last remaining sanity filled braincell
  • @Rub1ck99
    Actually, pikmin IS harder in some ways. Imagine having to take care of like a 50 NPC that are a size of your boot, die in 1 hit, and deal a damage of a broken sword with each hit, in any Dark souls game. What a nightmare.
  • Technical victories taste just as sweet! Unlike the home planet, which isn't tasting anything but starvation.

    "Oh this f'kn guy" That's our Lemon. Let's show him!
  • @Quandry1
    Lemon. You dang near killed me. I was drinking when Press A comes on and goes "PIkmin may be too hard for you. Why don't you go back to souls games?"
  • @FlameHeart3063
    Fun Fact: When fighting the Phosbat, if you just go for the bridge pieces and not the lightbulbs, and then turn on the main light as the only light in the cave, it prevents the little babies from spawning and overwhelming you during a run. Plus it lets you go straight for the main foe.

    Australia being the garden of hope is both ironic & perfect 😂 love it.
