To be fair, with a ship, you need to know exactly how much fuel (in this case sparklium) you need to get to your destination, and how much your ship can hold. It's quite literally rocket science.

It's honestly just a waiting game, not nearly as challenging as some of his normal runs, but also exceedingly flavorless. Avoiding getting board is the real challenge, rather then getting past a frustrating obstacle.
Not only do the Rescue Corps match their outfits and ship to match the color you choose, but if you change it later, they all change as well. I enjoy treating this as you forcing them to repaint the ship simply because you're bored.

Always amused by how much strategy and planning goes into these "minimal effort" challenges. I'm fascinated by your pathing and thought process! Thank you for another great video.
Technically 1137 is closer! Also it would be possible to beat the game while entering last-frost cavern fewer times. By going through the other caves and collecting all the enemy corpses there once, you can gain more sparklium and reduce how much needs to come from the cavern. Specifically, in the main video, 1,267 sparklium is collected from enemies in caves. (This does count the 11 from last-frost cavern once.) Combined with the 490 sparklium from the 5 collected treasures, this is 1,757 sparklium, bringing the total we need to collect by repeating last-frost cavern down from 12,510 all the way down to 11,243. This means that instead of needing to repeat last-frost cavern 1137 times, we only need to repeat it 1023 times! (Annoyingly 11,243 is one more than a round multiple of 11, so if there's a single sheargrub anywhere that was missed in the original video, we could bring that down to 1022 repeats exactly, or 1023 total times entering last-frost cavern.) This saves 115 trips through last-frost cavern!
I did a crude test to estimate how long this would take. I hopped into my complete save file and did 10 runs of last-frost cavern. It took me just under 2 real-life minutes per run (19 minutes total - though most of that was the loading, lol) and the main level timer was almost at the first dot. This means you could likely do around 60 runs per in-game day, taking just under 2 hours. This means it would take just over 17 in-game days or 34 real-life hours just running last-frost cavern to gather enough sparklium. If you decided to do this run as a full-time job, for 8 hours a day, it would be 4.25 full days of just last-frost cavern grinding. (I haven't accounted for the amount of time saved by having Oatchi fully upgraded, but I think it only makes a difference to how much damage rushing the blowhog does, so once you have enough pikmin it should be about the same. Plus considering where the timer was, I think another 2 runs would be possible before hitting the first dot on the main area timer, which would mean 72 runs would be possible per in-game day, making the grind around 14.5 in-game days; though this might be cut short at the end of the day by the 10-second countdown.)
@@mariatomlinson2663 1137 being closer doesn't technically matter. because you can't ~really~ do .27 of a run, you'd have to do it 1138 times. I'd be willing to wager entering any other levels outside of the first would also be a waste of time, as you'd have to do those runs and then end a day. Though I guess the challenge is about minimal treasure, not minimal days so it shouldn't matter. It'd come down to how many in game minutes are required to unlock each cave, versus how many times you could run Lastfrost Cavern in the same time... I imagine its still probably quicker to run the caves in a day than it is to spam Last Frost Cavern, but couldn't say for sure.
Funny thing about the safe combo: You only need to see two of the cards, and you can just chuck pikmin at the third dial repeatedly. Which is good because one card is kinda out of the way.
Actually, you only need one, that's what the speedrun does. You probably don't need any, but it goes from guessing from 8 with 2 cards, to 72 with 1 card, to 720 with no cards.
Fun fact, the first time I played Pikmin 4, I was fascinated by the safe mechanic. And thought you had to guess it. So I guessed it. It was 614. I do not know what Dandori entity possessed me to grant me such knowledge, but it has not returned since
@@weckar With "Skill" you need no cards, why 2? Seriously its just luck with 0, 1 or 2 cards, technically. 2 is just where the luck is much more bearable.
I'm sorry to be so negative, but I'm not a huge fan of this new editing style :( The video was a bit too zoomed in, and the subtitles were too large. This meant a lot of screen space was cut off or filled in. As someone who's played a lot of this game, it was a little disorienting for me. And the subtitles could have used another once-over. Breaking single numbers into multiple lines is jarring, and there were certain instances of misplaced capital letters. That said, I do like that you're experimenting with your style. You're one of the better challenge runners - especially with Pikmin. I just think this experimentation warrants further iteration before it's _just_ right.
Technically, you also need to collect the Gift of Friendship, though it is not collected manually. Even though it is never carried by Pikmin under your command, you are forced to collect it. But that would increase your total by 1 extra treasure, since you literally have to collect it to finish the game.
If u run a 5treasure% speedrun, you can still get sparklium from enemies in other caves once and pick up some castaways on the way to buy the dog a speed boost. Idk the math on how much sparklium u would save from collecting all the enemies from the other caves, but I bet that would shave some hours off. Oh and u can probably get white pikmin from caves, hopefully enough to quickly carry all the enemies in the 2 treasure cave.
I feel like I would want to see this without the enemy sparklium, but this is still really cool. Some really good pathing and planning to minmax your gains.
I imagine not collecting enemies probably only increases the treasure count by 5, 10 max because you may need a couple more early treasures with a lower value
Technically, you would need 67 (or 6 if you're a masochist) treasures to beat Pikmin 4, because in the last cave, after you defeat the final boss, the dog color is collected automatically and appears in the treasure log.
Can I just say that I was kind of annoyed at how they structured the series? Like if the whole point of completing a series is it gives you extra sparklium why did they leave so many of them to the last area when you don't need it??? They could have made it more rewarding by letting series be completed throughout the game in roughly equal measure... Makes me anggy.
Before watching this, this seems like it is going to be an incredibly obnoxious run given that you will need to farm a ton of corpses. Since enemies respawn in caves once the cave reaches 100%, this run could devolve into bug farming. I don’t envy you at all. Edit Post-Watch: glad your sanity remains in tact. Thanks for at least mentioning the respawning corpses though. Also, found this interesting in the video: Press-A: And who would want to do that?!?! Definitely not me! CC: Probably not me. Oh no. . . Good bye future sanity!
I recently 99.99% the game. As i had my purple pikmin collect the golden vaulting table, i realized that i had inadvertently made my character look like them (pink hair, purple suit 😂). It's also my introduction to the series, and I love it ❤
i wonder how they got the numbers of sparklium wrong when the game itself literally has the number inside of it... like it literally flashes it before then showing the name of the stage!
theoretically the minimum is 5 treasures. since last-frost cavern has 2 treasures (i think? it might be 3, in which case minimum is 6) which is the lowest in sun-speckled and you can grind it for 13k (which would take no time at all)
I thought your restriction would be just no enemy corpses, to avoid the respawning problem. How much was collected from just corpses? Maybe would have added 2-3 more treasures to your count?
I would like to point out the true minimum would be 6 treasures collected, not 5, since you also need the sirehounds collar at the end of the game, even after grinding Last Frost Cavern
Technically you would have to go to lastfrost cavern a bit less cus you could get the enemy corpses from the other caves still, but you know, not by much
i want to see something for this by doing the least of everything. (finding creatures, collecting treasures and and castaways, and geting least amount of gear)
How many times did you say SPARKLIUM in the video? Also, I appreciate the subtitles! I would suggest as feedback from them: 1) Make sure to proofread, but I think people have covered that. 2) They can be uploaded using the CC option so people can turn them on or off as required. I'm assuming if you have a written script this would be easier?
Okay, I'm not against subtitles, but I think the way you present the subtitles here is a little much? Like, give me a sentence at a time, not a few words. That's fine for shorter videos, but a longer one like this having the subs like that gets outright distracting.
why did you feel the need to add giant captions on the bottom the whole video, if i wanted captions i'd use the captions feature i can hear you just fine
I'm sure somebody will do the enemy grind challenge once it's been 5+ years since the last game. You scrape the bottom of the barrel at some point. And some people enjoy things like that.
you can't forget there are people who crazy tedious challenges i know that there has been people who did max level starting zone challenges like kh destiny islands max level, persona 5 fist dungeon max level,. kh2 twilight max level and those are just the ones i know. so i can totally see someone doing the 5 treasure challenge at some point
Well couldn't you still collect sparklium from the enemies in the other caves? You would still need to do Lastfrom a bunch, but it wouldn't exactly be 1138 times.
Why did you crop the video? Like you showed collecting everything you said so why crop? ... Did you use footage of a normal run and just said the strategies to do low%
Could you collect all the treasures in a cave at the start of the game and just grind enemys? It would be the most boring grind but wouldnt it be possible?
Fair point. It was my first time doing subtitles and I wasn’t sure if they could even be changed since it’s connected to the audio. But definitely something to improve on for the next one
you definately should have pointed that restriction at the beginning of the video. Everyone that knows how this game works would be quick to point out and question why you aren't doing it without explicitly stating the rules.
I was trying something new but didn’t realize how obnoxious they were until after the video was posted. Rest assured they won’t be included in future videos
lol I talk about this at the end of the video, and yes you can, if you’re willing to do it an insane amount of times. So because of that I placed a restriction on myself where I couldn’t recollect corpses
@@Gamerman-lu9bs yeah, that’s what I thought this video would be about but I guess that’d be pretty boring video, that is the actual least amount though
@@pressaTD my b, classic youtube commenter mistake of not watching till the end, no disrespect to yall, stuff's cool and that restriction makes for a better vid anyway
You could reduce that 1137.27 times significantly by getting the monster corpses once from the other caves. You collect 1256 sparklium from all of the other caves, which is 114.18 when divided by 11. So you would "only" have to do the first cave 1023 times if you went and got the remaining sparklium from the other monsters.
I don't know if this is doable, but you could only collect the first 3 treasures and then farm the rest of sparklium out of every soulless corpse of enemy until you reach 13,000 sparklium. Which is a very tedious and long way to do it but hypothetically that would be least amount. P.D. I've only watched only the first 5 minutes. Maybe you addressed this situation further in the video, if it so, sorry 😅
you know what would be a good video... if you entered last frost cavern 1137.27 times. and beat pikmin 4 collecting only 5 treasures. Now that's something I would watch.
I think its funny. If Ty is a lazy rescue corpse member. Then they must be doing a ton of math to find out how much they do and dont need.
I hired Clefairy to do all the math for me
To be fair, with a ship, you need to know exactly how much fuel (in this case sparklium) you need to get to your destination, and how much your ship can hold. It's quite literally rocket science.

"What's your new excuse, Lazy Lucy? What's the little scheme you're dreaming, up today? Tell me what's the use, Lazy Lucy? Working very hard to find an, easy way?"

Was going to ask why one wouldn't just re-run the caves.

6 would be the least amount. The collar at the end is mandatory
I thought your restriction would be just no enemy corpses, to avoid the respawning problem. How much was collected from just corpses? Maybe would have added 2-3 more treasures to your count?
If the creatures do give Sparklium, then the correct answer is only the tutorial tresearues (creatures respawn in caves when rivisting them)
More than the tutorial treasures are needed as a cave needs to be fully completed for enemies to respawn

Monsters will respawn in the caves if you collect all the treasure, but that might be against the rules
Edit: Oh yeah, you said that at the end
I talk about this at the end of the video but yes I put a restriction on myself where I couldn’t recollect enemies
let’s goooooo Ty video
I retract my comment since you mentioned it at the end of the video, hek
Real question: why do you put subtitles in the video when youtube has a perfectly good CC feature?
lol it’s a great question. I was experimenting with subtitles but I now know not to include them for longer videos
Wait if there's Thy, there's an other one ? Are there two of you at press A ?
Yes. There's Ty and Dan
There sure is! Sorry we’re trying to make this more known lol
Hi Ty ✌️
can you not just 100% the first cave (which makes enemies respawn) and collect their corpses over and over again instead of any more treasures?
yeah i thought this too LMAO
lol I talk about this at the end of the video, and yes you can, if you’re willing to do it an insane amount of times. So because of that I placed a restriction on myself where I couldn’t recollect corpses
Then the minimum would TECHNICALLY be 5 treasures, 3 at the hub area, and 2 in last frost cavern
@@Gamerman-lu9bs yeah, that’s what I thought this video would be about but I guess that’d be pretty boring video, that is the actual least amount though
@@pressaTD my b, classic youtube commenter mistake of not watching till the end, no disrespect to yall, stuff's cool and that restriction makes for a better vid anyway
🅱️ikmin
I don't believe u having an ex wife
And you would be correct lol
the word sparklium comes up so so much
lol I’m so so sorry
whats with the weird subtitles in this video...
lol it was my first time doing subtitles. Something to improve on for the next video
You could reduce that 1137.27 times significantly by getting the monster corpses once from the other caves. You collect 1256 sparklium from all of the other caves, which is 114.18 when divided by 11. So you would "only" have to do the first cave 1023 times if you went and got the remaining sparklium from the other monsters.
Fair point!
2:43 nice
I don't know if this is doable, but you could only collect the first 3 treasures and then farm the rest of sparklium out of every soulless corpse of enemy until you reach 13,000 sparklium. Which is a very tedious and long way to do it but hypothetically that would be least amount.
P.D. I've only watched only the first 5 minutes. Maybe you addressed this situation further in the video, if it so, sorry 😅
lol yeah I discuss this at the end of the video, but it would be more than 3 treasures
cant you just farm enemies in the caves?
why not just clear out one cave and farm the infinite enemies?
oh ok i saw the end of the video
Because it would be boring and wouldn’t make for a good video
If you wanna see a challenge that does that then just watch Jinjovitis genocide run for Pikmin 2.
also if you were willing to grind out the first area you would need only 3 treasures.
You would still need to collect the treasure in the cave tho
@@pressaTD yes but it’d still be less treasures than if you collected all treasures you could
you know what would be a good video... if you entered last frost cavern 1137.27 times. and beat pikmin 4 collecting only 5 treasures. Now that's something I would watch.
Would you watch if it was a live stream?
I'd rather you not add large hardcoded subs to the video as I find them distracting.
Appreciate the feedback! Was experimenting with subtitles but now know not to include them for long videos
