Other Modes
Pikmin 2.5 cotains a unique way of playing through the story mode that can be played from the start; "No Purple Pikmin Mode". It serves as a sort of "hard mode" for this game, as Purple Pikmin are so helpful with dealing with enemies. In this mode, the weights of all treasures that require Purples to lift are lowered, and bosses such as the Waterwraith have their patterns changed.
