Hole of Heroes: Difference between revisions

A special sublevel with a layout seen only twice in the game, and music unique to the Hole of Heroes. It is aquatic and moving any non-Blues through it will be a pain- explore it using your Blues. First off, there is a section of land connecting to the stump that you're on in the water. If you get your Pikmin to it, they'll be safer than where they are now. Unfortunately, there may be some enemies on the beach that will cause big trouble in the small space. Consider resetting if the beach is too heavily guarded. When you set out to explore with Blues to get the treasure, be careful with the Water Dumples. Punching them is sometimes safer than taking them on with Pikmin. There are two Yellow Wollywogs, two Hermit Crawmads and a regular Wollywog here. Take them on one at a time if they get in the way of your path to the treasure, but if you don't have to fight them, don't risk it. Wogpoles are harmless. If you need to make more Blue Pikmin, use Lapis Lazuli Candypop Buds here (if your non-blues can reach them.) The hole is blocked by a stone formation that your Pikmin must destroy in order to delve deeper.

Plenty of space for a clash with the Ranging Bloyster and a quartet of Cannon Beetles. Have one pilot hide your Pikmin in the alcove behind your ship while you send the other to activate the falling rocks and have the Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae and Decorated Cannon Beetles shoot each other to death with their boulders. After that, the Ranging Bloyster is easy prey; keep switching control of your pilots to keep it confused so you can easily attack the bulb on its backside. It will give up the sublevel's treasure.

This sublevel has every [[Grub-dog]] in the game (excluding [[Emperor Bulblax|Emperor-]] and [[Empress Bulblax]], and Water Dumple), and trios of all the dwarves. A [[Bitter spray]] is recommended for the [[Spotty Bulbear]], because it regains its health after death, and will crumple with a spray, leaving no corpse that could be revived. The [[Fiery Bulblax]] can be killed with Purples; the Pikmin must be thrown onto the Bulblax's back, and whistled back before they burn to death. This needs to be repeated until the enemy has died.

Whites and Purples are your Pikmin of choice for this small sublevel. The Whites can disable the gas pipes while your Purples pound on the Mitite swarms and the Emperor Bulblax duo. They're easy to defeat as long as you pummel them with Purples as they rise up from the ground. One of them holds the treasure.
