The official Japanese Pikmin IL/Full-game speedrun website already has every sage trial, dandori challenge and dandori battle, though it doesn't include glitched speedruns. What I'm thinking is that the moderators could potentially add the dandori challenges, battles and sage trials as Individual Levels of the leaderboards. And yes, I know that is not what they would usually do, but I feel like with Pikmin 4 only, it just feels like it should. What I mean is, the official Japanese website doesn't like glitched speedruns which means there really isn't anywhere to submit IL glitched runs other then doing the complete categories such as: All sage trials and all Dandori challenges. I am not saying that it should happen, but it would satisfy me, and probably a lot of other runners as well.
(I'm sorry if I'm meant to ask this kind of stuff in the discord server) So I've been playing piggy ever since Book: 1 Chapter: 5 and I have beaten every chapter including removed ones and including every ending on Plant Factory and Lab, I wouldn't say I'm one of the best but at least I'm above average. Besides that, I am very familiar with how Speedrunning works considering I've been doing it with many other games, but I am very new with Piggy Speedrunning, for now what I'm trying to attempt is getting a decent gallery record and the best I've gotten is 8:50 remaining (I didn't time it with a timer so idk the time) which is pretty decent but I forgot to record, and I already know every possible spawn for every item but one thing is that I prefer glitch% and I only know about 3 glitches in gallery, so if you would like to help out I would kindly appreciate tips on glitch gallery. (Sorry if this is a bit long)
For the point based IL's you guys need to make it based on who has the most time to make it an actual point based category.
So i did my best to recreate the break the target stages from the original super smash bros and decided to let everyone speedrun them!

(carefully read the rules)
I think it would be cool if Super Smash Bros Ultimate got category extensions because so many people have done dumb runs that are not a category. I did one myself too!
