Learn how to find the Shine Sprite in Super Mario Sunshine's Episode 10: Soak the Sun. This guide covers climbing the palm tree and revealing the hidden Shine.
Alright, let's dive into Episode 10: Soak the Sun in Pianta Village for Super Mario Sunshine! This one's a bit hidden, so pay attention. You'll need to re-enter Episode 8: Fluff Festival Coin Hunt to get started.
Walkthrough
- 1First things first, head over to the roof of the building that's right by the pond.
- 2From there, walk all the way to the very edge of the roof. You're going to need to jump and then use your hover ability to make your way over to a purple platform attached to the giant palm tree.
- 3Keep hopping up these purple platforms. They'll lead you higher and higher up the tree.
- 4You'll eventually reach the last purple platform. From here, grab the rocket nozzle – it's essential for the next part!
- 5Use the rocket nozzle to blast yourself up to the cloud platforms floating above.
- 6Continue ascending from the clouds onto the palm tree itself. You're looking for a wooden platform with a Shine symbol on it.
- 7Once you've landed on the wooden platform, look straight up at the sun. Your goal is to shoot water directly at it.
- 8Keep blasting water at the sun until a Shine Sprite sticker is completely revealed.
- 9As soon as the sticker is fully visible, a real Shine Sprite will appear! Grab it to complete the episode.
Tips
- Don't miss the rocket nozzle; it's the only way to reach the clouds and the top of the tree.
- Make sure you're aiming directly at the sun when you spray water.
