Area 1

Image	Stage	Best Doctors	Overview
	Stage 121	Dr. Yoshi Dr. Toad	This stage introduces dust viruses, which are viruses that are hidden in dust until a capsule lands next to it or an adjacent object is destroyed. If a valid match is made even though viruses in dust are not revealed, it will still be eliminated. The objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses. This stage is shaped like a ghost, with exploders shaping its eyes. Some Brick Blocks are present in this stage.
	Stage 122	Dr. Lakitu Dr. Luigi	The objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses. In this stage, there is a path of viruses interspersed with dust viruses. A red lock block is located between two Empty Blocks, which will unlock red cages containing viruses and a green lock block. The green cages contain viruses and Brick Blocks.
	Stage 123	Dr. Ludwig Dr. Waluigi	The objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses. In this stage, viruses are lined up along the sides, top and a row near the bottom, with most of them being half-frozen. In the middle, dust viruses are found above Empty Blocks.
	Stage 124	Dr. Fire Rosalina Dr. Toad	The objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses. In this stage, cages are lined up diagonally, one line containing viruses and another containing floatie viruses. The corresponding lock blocks are found on the outside of the diagonal line with Brick Blocks.
	Stage 125	Dr. Luma Dr. Fire Mario	The objective of this stage is to collect all virus coins. In this stage, there are two groups with two columns each has viruses each with four virus coins each, and in each group, the ones in the middle rows are half-frozen. In the middle column, there are fully-frozen viruses with exploders, and each virus cover a virus coin. Two columns with Brick Blocks and Empty Blocks are located between the middle column. The capsule amount is increased from 32 to 37 since version 1.3.5. Besides that, this stage is otherwise the same.

In this stage, there are two symmetrical groups of viruses that are in cages with the middle ones being free. There are viruses inside bubbles surrounded by Brick Blocks on the leftmost and rightmost columns, and a shell in the middle column in the top row. The Brick Blocks in the second and eighth columns contain lock blocks in the second row and hidden viruses in the other rows. The capsule amount is increased from 40 to 45 since version 1.3.5. Besides that, this stage is otherwise the same.

Between them are three rows of five viruses (two of them half-frozen) between Empty Blocks, arranged in a cascade fashion.
	Stage 139	Dr. Waluigi Dr. Baby Mario	The objective of this stage is to eliminate all viruses. In this stage, there is an outer ring of Brick Blocks where dust viruses are found in the corners and hidden viruses are found in the center of each of the sides. There is another ring containing Brick Blocks and Empty Blocks, in which viruses are also found in the center of each side, two of them hidden in Brick Blocks. Between the two rings are floatie viruses in the corners and dust viruses on the center of each side, and on the inside of the inner ring, there are more dust viruses.

In the beginning of this stage, four dust viruses each containing floatie viruses are found, along with a group of five viruses above a row of Brick Blocks. Five more viruses are surrounded by Brick Blocks, and the Brick Blocks initially found in the third row contain hidden viruses. After the stage scrolled up far enough, there are viruses in cages with hidden viruses in Brick Blocks found to the left and below of the group. The lock block is hidden in the Brick Block in the third row at the seventh column after the stage scrolled up all the way. This stage will scroll for one line each time enough objects are cleared, and will stop after 5 lines are introduced. When cleared, the rest of the first area in the world map gets cleared of viruses. Players also obtain 500 coins upon completing this stage. Prior to version 1.3.5, the stage layout was different. The following changes were made: Two viruses are added in the second row from top after the stage scrolled up all the way, in the rightmost two columns.
