good news: the boss is easy, and the bad news: you are probably down to 60 Blue Pikmin, not including the Bulbmin. However, Bulbmin don't

exit with you, so you should have PLENTY of Bulbmin with you. Start out by

smashing the 3 gates in the starting area. Since you can't take them with you, use your Bulbmin to make 10 purples with the 2 [[Violet Candypop Bud]]s. Since the Waterwraith will appear like normal if you wait to long, use nectar from the eggs instead of waiting for your purples to mature to flowers. Now, smash the 3 eggs and stampede the nectar with your Pikmin, so you should have nothing but flower pikmin in no time! To end this, smash the final black gate, blocking the boss arena, and throw all of your Bulbmin back, for they are useless. Press X to disband your Pikmin, then call all your purple Pikmin, since blues and Bulbmin are useless. Now, prepare for the fnil encounter with the WaterWraith!

===BOSS BATTLE===

'''NAME''' [[Waterwraith]]

'''REQUIRED PIKMIN COLOR''' Purple

note that you NEED purples to harm it. The Purple Pikmin have some sort

of chemical on them that turns the WaterWraith solid and purple. Anyhow, this boss will start out by

falling and lifting its front steamroller. Get to the side of it as it lifts it and

once it drops it, throw a purple at it and it will turn solid and purple. When it's purple you can damage it; if it doesn't become purple then call your pikmin back and wait for your chance to throw more purples at it. Throw pikmin rapidly at its purple body, doing nothing else. Soon, it will roar a few times and turn clear again, sending pikmin flying. If this happens and pikmin don't hit again fast enough, then it will roar again, so gather your pikmin as it smashes its rocks and starts to roll around.

Be sure not to get squished with the rock rollers, or those rocks could flatten your pikmin. After repeating several times until its health circle falls to zero, you will see the rock steamrollers shatter, beginning stage 2. Now, it runs like a coward away from you, revealing its true nature! Chase it until it bends down and starts panting. There is no way you can get hurt by it, so don't hold back - unleash all your Pikmin on it! It will shake a lot still, but continue to hurt it. If you wait too long again, it will start running some more. After it dies, prepare for a very dramatic death! First, it looks like it was shot,

whistling at them! This is very useful - when you have 100 sprouts, when you get a lot of sprouts from a Mamuta, etc. Now that you've finished this evil cave, leave going up the geyser. '''CAVE COMPLETE'''!!
