The area | The '''Perplexing Pool''' is the third area discovered in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' of the four in the game, the last being the [[Wistful Wild]]. It is the wettest area in ''Pikmin 2'', with multiple lakes spread across its length, two of the caves being submerged. The level contains four [[cave]]s, seven [[Treasure Hoard|treasures]], and a variety of beasts, many of them spending a lot of time in water. The Perplexing Pool is considered a representation of Summer. | ||
The area is noted to bear a number of striking resemblances to [[The Distant Spring]] in [[Pikmin (game)|the first game]], for which reason it be confidently considered to be the same area of the [[Planet of the Pikmin|Pikmin planet]]. At one point Olimar points out how much the area has changed since his last visit. | |||
Additional enemies appear after day 30. | Additional enemies appear after day 30. These creatures are rather difficult to defeat, making it advisable for inexperienced players to complete the area before that day. | ||
This is a sample of what is heard in the area in terms of music. The more powerful part of music is played when enemies are nearby. | |||

==General layout== | |||
The Perplexing Pool has a close resemblance to the [[Distant Spring]] of the first game, though it does have some changes. There is a big area where there was only small islands and water, there is no water in the middle of the area, the [[Shower Room]] is were the [[Massage Machine]] was in ''Pikmin'', the [[Submerged Castle]] is were the [[Chronos Reactor]] was, most of the gates are gone and there are 3 berry plants in the area - 2 in the middle of the area and one in the water. There are some Yellow Wollywogs and one Toady Bloyster in the water to the left of the landing site. | |||
