== Captures and skips == The format of a Minimum Captures Darker Side run is to complete [[Minimum Captures Any%]] and collect as many moons as possible without capturing any additional objects. Depending on the rule set, it may be possible to obtain over 500 moons and thus reach [[Darker Side (kingdom)|Darker Side]] without any additional captures; however, in some [[Two-player mode|two-player]] runs, this is not possible. This is because two-player Minimum Captures Any% runs utilize [[Morning Metro]] to reach the [[Metro Kingdom]] early in a state where there are not nearly as many moons available. Two-player runs on versions [[Version 1.0.1|1.0.1]] or higher cannot visit [[Bruncheon]] without any captures, meaning captureless [[Meat Skip]] cannot be performed for extra moons. This makes completing a two-player Darker Side run impossible on these versions without an extra capture until more moons are proven possible. Note that it is not actually necessary in any case to capture an additional object to reach Darker Side, since after beating the game, the player can purchase [[Duplicate moon|extra Power Moons]] from each [[Crazy Cap]] shop and acquire as many as needed. However, since this is against the rules of the [[Darker Side (category)|Darker Side]] category, a valid Minimum Captures Darker Side run must collect 500 unique Power Moons prior to traveling to Darker Side. Otherwise, the run would be considered a [[Darker Side Dupes]] run rather than a Darker Side run. The following table shows the required captures for each subcategory, as well as any skips used to bypass captures not required in a particular subcategory. βοΈ = required capture π’ = choice between two captures β = not used in route {| class="wikitable" ! rowspan="2" |Kingdom ! rowspan="2" |Capture ! colspan="2" |[[Two-player mode|Two-player]] ! colspan="2" |One-player |- ![[Version 1.0.0|1.0.0]] β [[Version 1.1.0|1.1.0]] ![[Version 1.2.0|1.2.0]] β [[Version 1.3.0|1.3.0]] ![[Version 1.0.0|1.0.0]] β [[Version 1.1.0|1.1.0]] ![[Version 1.2.0|1.2.0]] β [[Version 1.3.0|1.3.0]] |- |[[Cap Kingdom]] |[[Spark pylon]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Cascade Kingdom]] |[[Broode's Chain Chomp]] (first phase) | style="text-align:center;" colspan="2" |[[Broode Skip]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Cascade Kingdom]] |[[Broode's Chain Chomp]] (second phase) | style="text-align:center;" colspan="2" |[[Broode Skip]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Cascade Kingdom]] |[[Broode's Chain Chomp]] (third phase) | style="text-align:center;" colspan="2" |[[Broode Skip]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Metro Kingdom]] |[[Sherm]] ([[Mechawiggler]]) | style="text-align:center;" colspan="2" |[[Morning Metro]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Ruined Kingdom]] |[[Spark pylon]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Bowser's Kingdom]] |[[Spark pylon]] ([[Odyssey]] to Third Courtyard Front) | style="text-align:center;" colspan="2" |[[1 to 3]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Bowser's Kingdom]] |[[Spark pylon]] (Third Courtyard Front to Rear) | style="text-align:center;" colspan="2" |[[1 to 3]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Bowser's Kingdom]] |[[Spark pylon]] (Third Courtyard Rear to Second) | style="text-align:center;" colspan="2" |[[3 to 4]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Bowser's Kingdom]] |[[Spark pylon]] (Second Courtyard to [[Crazy Cap]]) | style="text-align:center;" colspan="2" |[[4 to 6]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Bowser's Kingdom]] |[[Spark pylon]] ([[Crazy Cap]] to Main Courtyard) | style="text-align:center;" colspan="2" |[[4 to 6]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Bowser's Kingdom]] |[[Spark pylon]] (Main Courtyard to arena) | style="text-align:center;" |[[Nut jumping]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |[[Nut jumping]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Moon Kingdom]] |[[Bowser (capture)|Bowser]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Darker Side (kingdom)|Darker Side]] |[[Frog]] (starting area) | style="text-align:center;" |π’ | style="text-align:center;" |[[Cappy return cancel|CRC]]<ref name=":0">https://twitter.com/kehzou/status/1239778664314589184</ref> | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Darker Side (kingdom)|Darker Side]] |[[Lava Bubble]] | style="text-align:center;" |[[Frog Airswim]] or [[Cappy return cancel|CRC]]<ref name=":0" /> | style="text-align:center;" |[[Cappy return cancel|CRC]]<ref name=":0" /> | style="text-align:center;" |[[Frog Airswim]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Darker Side (kingdom)|Darker Side]] |[[Glydon]] | style="text-align:center;" |[[Frog Airswim]] or [[Cappy return cancel|CRC]]<ref name=":0" /> | style="text-align:center;" |[[Cappy return cancel|CRC]]<ref name=":0" /> | style="text-align:center;" |[[Frog Airswim]] | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ |- |[[Darker Side (kingdom)|Darker Side]] |[[Frog]] (final area) | style="text-align:center;" |π’ | style="text-align:center;" |βοΈ | style="text-align:center;" |β | style="text-align:center;" |β |- ! colspan="2" |Total Captures | style="text-align:center;" |4 | style="text-align:center;" |5 | style="text-align:center;" |13 | style="text-align:center;" |16 |}
