The following article or section contains guides. The strategies presented may not be the only ones or the best ones.
The Coiled Launcher is one of 3 treasures in the Subterranean Complex's third sublevel, where fire geysers and a few Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae are the only hazards. If all the enemies are near each other, use a leader to lure them into destroying each other with their rocks; if not, throwPikmin on carefully, making sure the enemies are facing away from any edges. The Coiled Launcher is located at a random location in the sublevel.
Notes

“I tried flying this thing once, but it moved too rapidly and I contracted vertigo. Maybe it could be used as an amusement ride. The youngins would love it! However, I don't think I'll ever ride it again...”
Sales pitch
“Just an ordinary spring? Hardly! This is a high-speed thrill ride tested by one of our employees! Jump aboard for a ride so fast, it'll make you see other worlds!”
