'''Any% Minimum Captures''' is a speedrun category on the Category Extensions leaderboard for Super Mario Odyssey. As the name implies, the primary goal of this category is to complete the game while capturing as few objects or enemies as possible.
'''Minimum Captures Any%''' is a subcategory of [[Minimum Captures]] that involves completing the [[Any%]] category with as few [[Capture|captures]] as possible. In other words, the primary goal of this category is to simply complete the game while capturing the lowest possible number of objects or enemies.


Under normal circumstances, the game can be completed in a minimum of 14 captures. This can be reduced by one if the game is played on version 1.1.0 or earlier, using the [[nut jumping]] exploit, and/or reduced by three if two-player mode is permitted, using [[Madame Broode Skip]]. Therefore, the absolute minimum number of captures required to beat the game (to the extent of the community's knowledge) is 9.
== Captures and skips ==
Under normal circumstances, the game can be completed in a minimum of 13 captures, with the hardest trick in the run being [[Pokio Skip]]. This can be reduced by one if the game is played on [[version 1.1.0]] or earlier, by using the [[nut jumping]] exploit to skip the final spark pylon in Bowser's Kingdom. Additionally, the count can be reduced by nine if [[two-player mode]] is permitted, by using various 2P-exclusive tricks.


On the speedrunning leaderboard, there are four subcategories of Any% Minimum Captures, depending on whether the use of nut jumping or two-player mode (and thus Madame Broode Skip) are permitted. These categories are labeled 10 Captures, 11 Captures, 13 Captures and 14 Captures. The most active and beginner-friendly of these subcategories is 14 Captures, since Madame Broode Skip and nut jumping are both considered to be extremely difficult tricks.
The easiest of these subcategories is 13 Captures, since it omits nut jumping and the difficult 2P tricks. However, all four of these categories are quite challenging regardless, due to the presence of Pokio Skip.


This category is widely known due to streamer Smallant1, who is one of the most prominent runners for the category and holds many of the top times across the various subcategories.
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.

Minimum Captures Any% is a subcategory of Minimum Captures that involves completing the Any% category with as few captures as possible. In other words, the primary goal of this category is to simply complete the game while capturing the lowest possible number of objects or enemies.

Captures and skips

Under normal circumstances, the game can be completed in a minimum of 13 captures, with the hardest trick in the run being Pokio Skip. This can be reduced by one if the game is played on version 1.1.0 or earlier, by using the nut jumping exploit to skip the final spark pylon in Bowser's Kingdom. Additionally, the count can be reduced by nine if two-player mode is permitted, by using various 2P-exclusive tricks.

The easiest of these subcategories is 13 Captures, since it omits nut jumping and the difficult 2P tricks. However, all four of these categories are quite challenging regardless, due to the presence of Pokio Skip.

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.
