The Seaside Kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey is filled with sunny beaches, deep ocean waters, and hidden collectibles scattered across its rocky cliffs. Among these collectibles is Power Moon 38, titled "I Met a Dorrie!", which requires players to locate a specific aquatic creature swimming around Bubblaine. Finding this moon is a straightforward task once you know where to look, but it can be easy to overlook if you are focused strictly on the main objectives. Checking out daily gaming news can help players discover additional secrets and walkthroughs for Nintendo Switch classics.
Locating Dorrie in the Seaside Kingdom
To begin tracking down Power Moon 38, head toward the open water areas of the Seaside Kingdom. You will need to look for Dorrie, the friendly blue aquatic creature swimming calmly along the ocean surface. Dorrie travels along a set path, making it relatively simple to spot from high ground or while swimming.
Keep an eye on the water near the main island beaches and surrounding shoals. If you do not see Dorrie immediately, scan the horizon from a high point like the Lighthouse or the Odyssey itself to pinpoint its location.
How to Collect Power Moon 38
Once you locate Dorrie swimming in the water, swim directly up to the creature. You will notice a glowing Power Moon attached to Dorrie's belly underneath the water's surface. Dive down beneath Dorrie's body to touch the moon and claim it for your inventory.
Alternatively, if Dorrie is carrying a different moon on its head, make sure you check underneath its stomach specifically for Power Moon 38. Precise underwater movement using Mario's swim controls will help you grab the moon quickly without getting disoriented.
Tips for Navigating the Seaside Kingdom Waters
Utilizing local captures like Cheep Cheeps can make navigating the ocean much faster and easier. Capturing a Cheep Cheep allows Mario to swim indefinitely without worrying about an oxygen meter, allowing you to search underwater structures with complete freedom. Using a Gushen can also propel you across the water's surface rapidly to reach Dorrie's location in seconds.
Collecting all the moons in Bubblaine requires a blend of exploration on land and underwater maneuvering. Adding Power Moon 38 to your collection brings you one step closer to fully completing the Seaside Kingdom list.
