'''Abduction Den''' is the twenty-fourth level in {{p2}}{{'s}} [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]]. Most of the enemies are capable of grabbing [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or leaders, hence the name. Take caution to ensure they're not abducted into hazards, and be especially mindful of the [[Bumbling Snitchbug]]s; if your leader is grabbed at an inconvenient time, your army will be easy prey for the [[Careening Dirigibug]]s or the [[Greater Spotted Jellyfloat]].

[[The Key]] is inside the [[Greater Spotted Jellyfloat]]. Grabbing it should be your first priority, so lure it away from the other enemies with one of your leaders before using your other leader to weigh it down with Pikmin. If your only concern is a pink flower, just beeline for the exit after collecting it, but be careful if the [[Swooping Snitchbug]] grabs a Pikmin &ndash; if it successfully buries it before you leave, you'll need to backtrack to pluck the sprout, since leaving it behind will count as a death.

An alternative, more humorous method to dealing with the Greater Spotted Jellyfloat is to allow it to consume one of your leaders, then switch to the other and spray it with [[ultra-bitter spray]]. Switch back to the leader inside the petrified Jellyfloat and mash buttons to escape &ndash; if successful, they will shatter it from the inside for a one-hit kill.

If you care for a high score, you'll need to defeat the other enemies. All of them drop treasure, and you'll probably need to defeat all of them anyway to safely transit the treasures. Save your sprays for quickly dealing with the [[Careening Dirigibug]]s &ndash; the sublevel's main threat.
