Very little effort is required to reach the cave. By proceeding from the landing site and approaching the [[Yellow Wollywog]] ([[Shearwigs]] on later days), you will find it in plain sight.

This is likely your first cave with the luxury of choosing an appropriate Pikmin squad. However, it is highly likely that your numbers of [[Yellow Pikmin]], [[White Pikmin]] and [[Purple Pikmin]] are low, so it is probable that you will wind up using [[Red Pikmin]] to pad out the squad. The only source of [[electricity]] in the cave is in sublevel 3 and its [[Anode Beetle]]s, so your squad of Yellow Pikmin will more than likely be applied mainly for the [[Beady Long Legs]].

However, it is very likely that your numbers of [[Yellow Pikmin]], [[White Pikmin]] and [[Purple Pikmin]] are low, requiring you to pad out the squad using [[Red Pikmin]]. The only source of [[electricity]] in the cave is in sublevel 3 in the form of [[Anode Beetle]]s, so your squad of Yellow Pikmin will mainly be applied for the [[Beady Long Legs]].
Your Yellow squad should sit close to 15-20, while using all the White and Purple Pikmin you have (around 15 Whites and 20-25 Purples) is reasonable for the challenges presented. This would leave room for 30-50 Red Pikmin. There is a Queen Candypop Bud present, and room may be left for the eight Pikmin to be collected from it.

Take a squad of [[Purple Pikmin]], and one [[throw]] should take out any one of them easily when aimed correctly. After you are sure there are no enemies left that can pose a threat, take some Pikmin in and have them transport the [[Love Nugget]] to the pod. After you have recovered it, you may move on.

After the area is clear of all the enemies, you should have cleared a path to the treasures, even if the Dweevils had stolen them. There are three treasures that you need to get here, the [[Creative Inspiration]], held by one of the [[Yellow Wollywog]]s, the [[Lip Service]], and the [[Paradoxical Enigma]], which is in an alcove, partially buried. There are a few alcoves that may have [[eggs]] that fall, and a [[Violet Candypop Bud]] will appear if you have less than 20 [[Purple Pikmin]]. After clearing the area, it would be imminent for you to move on.

After all the items are gathered, if you haven't already, you can use the [[Queen Candypop Bud]] that drops from the ceiling in an alcove to gain some Pikmin, especially if you're short in your total amount of [[Yellow Pikmin]] since you recently discovered them. After your other needs, such as recuperation via the [[nectar]] and [[spray]]s of [[eggs]], you can progress to the next sublevel.

Once you have recovered all of the treasures, you can use a nearby [[Ivory Candypop Bud]] if you really need some [[White Pikmin]]. [[Eggs]] are also nearby for your use. After you are finished restoring the quality of your team if necessary, move on to the last area of this dungeon.

Note that due to the way sublevel generation works, it is possible for no Hermit Crawmad to appear, and as such, for you to miss out on the [[King of Sweets]], as detailed [[Cave#Generation|here]] and [[Mistake#Missing sublevel objects|here]].

If you're interested, take a small group of [[Purple Pikmin]] and walk in front of one of the [[Common Glowcap]]s in the area, throw a Purple Pikmin on them and see if an [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]] comes out (only one can be found here per visit), fight it for [[nectar]] and one [[ultra-spicy spray]]; once you recover from your battle, you can finally exit the cave by using the geyser nearby in a narrow passageway.
