The ship says there is a large machine here, but there are small ones, too. If you haven't seen them before, these guys are called [[Gatling Groink]]s. Usually, this should be the first time a player encounters them, so I will explain a strategy for them as well. Their appearance may slightly resemble that of a goldfish, however, they have been modified with machinery and can shoot mortars from retractable snouts. Their metal shield make it hard to attack them from the front. There are 2 here. One dawdling about, and the other on a pillar. The walking one should chase you, so try this: Separate the Captains and use the one without any Pikmin to lure the "fish" over to you. Switch Captains and the game should automatically move the idle Captain away. Now use the Captain you're active with to attack him from behind (with Pikmin); Carry him back quickly, as he can regenerate his life energy! For the other one on the pillar, use a similar tactic. But I'd prefer a spray. After these hard battles, grab the [[Indomitable CPU]], the [[Furious Adhesive]] and the grandiose [[Thirst Activator]], worth a whopping 300 pokos! Now let's leave this horrible level for a place you've been waiting for!

But I'd prefer a spray. A good, safer way to get rid of the scattered bomb rocks (if you try punching them, the wandering "fish" will go to your group of pikmin and your other captain) is to get ONE captain, leave all pikmin behind, and go up to the wandering "fish". Make it follow you, and run to the bomb rocks. Let it fire its bullets, hopfully hitting the bomb rocks. Once all of them are detonated, then you can attack the fish. After these hard battles, grab the [[Indomitable CPU]], the [[Furious Adhesive]] and the grandiose [[Thirst Activator]], worth a whopping 300 pokos! BUT. There are a couple of bomb rocks (if you can call it a couple) that drop from the sky! The [[Furious Adhesive]] is nearly always in a dead end. If it is, there will be explosions. Why? Like I said, falling bomb rocks. Now let's leave this horrible level for a place you've been waiting for!
