(Some fixes and additions. The trivia bit about the optional boss is kinda dull, and when two out of five areas do it, it's hardly special.) |

'''The Distant Spring''' is the fourth area Olimar discovers on [[Pikmin (game)|his first visit]] to the [[Pikmin Planet]]. It is part of a huge wetland at the edge of the forest (and thusly named "Distant Spring"). The terrain is mostly aquatic with unique creatures spread throughout.

It is part of a huge wetland at the edge of the forest (and thusly named "The Distant Spring"). The terrain is mostly aquatic with unique creatures spread throughout. This land also is home to a plurality of [[Captain Olimar]]'s missing [[ship part]]s, of which there are ten. The [[Perplexing Pool]] bears resemblance to The Distant Spring. They feature similar maps and similar looking ledges, and the same tree trunks. | ||

The Distant Spring is the largest area in the first [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' game]]. Water covers a great portion of the area. In the center lies the landing site, along with several hollow tree stumps. To the north is a small pond where the [[Number 2 Ionium Jet|#2 Ionium Jet]] and the [[Chronos Reactor]] can be found. To the east, there is a wall maze with the [[UV Lamp]], blocked by a small path filled with [[Spotty Bulbear]]s, [[Puffy Blowhog]]s, and [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s. To the west are the areas with the [[Gluon Drive]], [[Zirconium Rotor]], and [[Pilot's Seat]], which are located in large tree stumps. Finally, to the south lies a small river with some islands where the [[Smoky Progg]] (before [[day]] 15) and the [[Interstellar Radio]] (inside a [[Puffy Blowhog]]) can be found. There are several [[Water Dumple]]s in this area. | |||
In this area, [[bomb-rock]]s are found in giant skulls; the creatures they once belonged to being as of yet unknown. One of them is inside a hollow tree stump guarded by a Spotty Bulbear near the landing site, and another one in the beach where the [[Massage Machine]] is found. There is another skull near the pool with [[Wogpole]]s to the West. | |||
