The Crackling Cauldron is a cave in the Sun-Speckled Terrace in Pikmin 4. It has two sublevels where 20 Yellow Pikmin can be found. A majority of the enemies and obstacles here are fire related, so Red Pikmin are recommended. This cave has  × 470 worth of treasure.

How to reach

From the second base, Rugged Scaffold, make your way around the bend past the electrical fence and down to a dirt wall guarded by a Bulborb, though you do not have to kill it to get to the wall. After breaking down the wall, you'll find the cave's entrance on the right covered by a pile of dirt.

Notes

Olimar's Voyage Log

“I was feeling hotter than usual in my space suit, and when I looked down, the ground was on fire! I panicked, but a Red Pikmin just gave me a sidelong glance, totally unfazed even as the fire licked at them. They're clearly capable of more than just skillful attacks.”
