Finally, the [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]]s can be killed by just swarming them the old-fashioned way. The final treasure, the Confection Hoop can be found on a ledge guarded by some Dwarf Orange Bulborbs. To get there, walk to the opposite ledge and throw Pikmin over the gap and to the treasure. Throw more Pikmin over, since it is surrounded by the Bulborbs. | Finally, the [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]]s can be killed by just swarming them the old-fashioned way.

Getting the treasure back to the Research Pod takes some effort because the Waterwraith is always coming down a small isle that you have to walk through; do your best to try to avoid it and eventually it will go away. Get the treasure back to your ship and continue on down. | ||

*The cavern contains 13 treasures, a famously unlucky number; this appears to be intended to reflect the cave's nature, and especially that of its boss. | *The cavern contains 13 treasures, a famously unlucky number; this appears to be intended to reflect the cave's nature, and especially that of its boss. | ||
*The music is very similar to the music that plays in the "[[wikibound:Cave of the Past|Cave of the Past]]", the final dungeon in another of [[Nintendo]]'s popular games, ''[[wikibound:EarthBound|EarthBound]]''. Both of the bosses in these caves were supernatural beings with somewhat unintelligible forms and seeming invulnerability. | |||

*The Waterwraith is actually programmed to drop the [[Professional Noisemaker]] in all sublevels, not just the final one. By using external tools to somehow damage and defeat the Waterwraith in one of these sublevels, it will not appear in any following sublevel. | *The Waterwraith is actually programmed to drop the [[Professional Noisemaker]] in all sublevels, not just the final one.

*Curiously, the games files specify that the [[Music in Pikmin 2#Flooded Stump|musical theme]] for sublevel 6 of the [[Hole of Heroes]] should play on all five sublevels. Despite that, in practice, the Submerged Castle's normal theme is hard-coded to play instead. The same occurs on sublevel 9 of the [[Dream Den]]. | *Curiously, the games files specify that the [[Music in Pikmin 2#Flooded Stump|musical theme]] for sublevel 6 of the [[Hole of Heroes]] should play on all five sublevels.
