The '''Frontier Cavern''' is the last cavern found in the [[Valley of Repose]] area. To get to it, the player may have to clear the area of [[Bulborb]]s, [[Blowhog]]s, Cannon Beetles, and a [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]]. Before building the bridge to the upper section, where the entrance is, they should get rid of the [[Withering Blowhog]] in the area.

The [[Empress Bulblax]] is slightly different than the one in [[Hole of Beasts]] in that it gives birth to [[Bulborb Larva]] every few seconds. In this cave, there are 1395 [[Poko]]s worth of treasures.

This sublevel has boulders falling from the ceiling, so when going from place to place, be cautious. Have a single captain cause the boulders to fall, preferably on the Dwarf Orange Bulborbs and Orange Bulborbs to kill or severely damage them. After they all have fallen, take your Pikmin and kill any stragglers and collect the treasures. Then have your White Pikmin dig up the Flame Tiller and collect it. There is also an Iridescent Glint Beetle on this sublevel that can be used to harness [[Ultra-Spicy Spray]]s for the boss.
