what's going on everyone austin john plays here and today i'm going to be telling you how you can
easily beat the game the pumpkin pull the most difficult minigame in all of legend of zelda
sky-bird sword hd this is going to be a quick tips and tricks video to help you guys out i'm
doing a 100 walkthrough on my channel and this is just a one-off video to help people with this one
specific sidequest minigame that many people believe is the most difficult minigame in all
of legend of zelda skyward sword i was not able to beat this when i was younger at release 10
years ago when i was 23 years old and i only recently learned of a way that you can kind of
cheese this minigame if you're not familiar this minigame is unlocked by talking to fledge in night
time in his room you have to give him a stamina potion and then you have to do it a second time
at a later point in time and then you have to speak with him again at a later point in time
after which he's going to give you five gratitude crystals after that you're then going to be able
to do this minigame he's going to be right outside of the practice arena here in skyloft this is
considered the most frustrating mini game for a very good reason when it was out on the wii of
course there were only motion controls and if you try to do this with only motion controls you're
going to be holding your joy con right you hold a to zoom in and then you're able to shoot these
pumpkins now the beginning isn't hard it kind of leads you into this with some easy easy targets
every single pumpkin that you get in a row they're worth more and more points up until a total of 50
points you may also encounter a very rare pumpkin that is gold and sparkly that's worth double
points only for that instance the multiplier will keep stacking until you miss a pumpkin
the challenge comes that after you hit 400 points he starts doing some really out there throws
i missed that one that was my own fault oh that one's super high oh i actually got that one not
bad yeah like that one completely off screen kind of hard to follow it's a little bit easier on the
switch version just because you have much more of a range of motion and you can lead the pumpkin
with the motion controls oh there we go that's that's the one and then did you see how my joy con
just didn't want to do that at all after you hit 400 points it becomes extremely difficult to get
any more points than that the problem is you need to hit a total of 600 points the only saving grace
is that you can actually earn your rupees back it only costs 20 to play the game and if you score
between 100 and 390 points you're gonna be given 50 rupees back so you make 30 on that which yay
if you achieve between 400 and 590 you're gonna be getting a rare treasure which is sometimes a
monster horn sometimes a dusk relic sometimes an ancient flower so on and so forth after you hit
600 your first time you're going to be getting yourself a piece of heart and then subsequently
you can get yourself actually i don't know what happens if you get over 600 a second time
i don't think anyone's ever played the game again after getting the 600 which i'm actually going to
do because i've already gotten this prize so i guess we're going to find out together on that
one now there is a way to choose it and i'm going to show you exactly how to do it first we're going
to go to options we're going to go to button only controls and use motion controls for aiming we're
going to turn that off completely now if i were to pull out my bow i can't use my joy-con to aim
i can only aim it with the right stick which is good because now i can actually fix my bow to a
specific position right and that's going to help for what we're gonna do here now in order for you
to choose this game because you may find this mini game too difficult and for actually a lot
of people this was their last piece of heart that they needed to get you want to aim at this next
to left pole right here he's then going to start throwing them and when he has the pumpkin in the
middle of his body we're going to be releasing the a button i recommend a over zr just because
you can release the trigger more sensitively also highly reckon making sure that there's nothing in
the way of you your joy-con and the nintendo switch console because anything in the way
can actually lead to interference laptops
cell phones speakers microphones anything with a wireless signal or a magnet
and the trick here is even if he decides to throw it crazy like
very far off to the right or very high or very fast throw it it has to go by this exact space
and the real secret about this i'm getting a call why are you calling me in the middle of a tutorial
oh i'm so sorry my phone is never the ringer is never on i've had my phone on mute since i don't
know 2012. i'm so sorry about this oh that was one of the sparkly pumpkins and yes my iphone
ringtone is the marimba but it's sariah song i'm so sorry about that that definitely threw me off
but i just wanted to keep all that explanation of how i'm going to be doing this and now i can
actually focus on doing it with this strategy i do always end up missing the first one
just because i don't have enough time to get in position but again just focus on his
torso and soon as the pumpkin is in his torso now is when you want to release the a button
now
now and like i was saying before i got so cut off so rudely by my friend who called me is when you
when he wants to throw it super long or super high that really throws you off after the 400 point
marker it's always going to be passing by the same area now and now that it passes by the same area
you're always able to hit it
boom that's the 600 we need i still have 30 seconds to go
is this going to be a full streak come on let's go for a full streak here
800 that was my previous high score ever 850.
i don't think he could throw two i wanted to break a thousand that would have been magical
come on throw it throw it throw it throw it do it ah he didn't throw it i got 950 points
hang on i need to take a screenshot of that the pride of the night academy is truly riding
on your shoulders take this oh you just get a rare treasure a golden skull that seems kind of
you know lackluster that probably means that it's either going to be a evil crystal golden skull
blue bird feather or a goddess plume one of those four treasures and that's like the the rarest
treasures in the game which three out of the four sell for 100 rupees each but yeah there you
go that's how you can cheese the hardest minigame in all of legend of zelda skyward sword hd if you
