*'''Boss: [[Raging Long Legs]]''' That's A Lotta Enemies!

This is a small section in the middle of a field, walled off by pebbles. The Corpulent Nut is in one of the "dead ends". However, be careful on your way to the treasure. Sheargrubs will ambush you. The quickest way to defeat them is to smash them down with purples. You should only bother with the larger enemies like the burrow-nits and crysanthemums if they're in the way to the treasure. Lastly, be ready to fight any [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]]s that fall from above. They often drop down on you when you walk into a dead end. There are a couple eggs that might help you in some of the dead ends.

*Pleated Snagret

*Burrowing Snagret (A Duo Of Snagrets? Wow!)

 

A pit which drags Pikmin to its center is present in the middle of the arena-like cave. Note that only the Pileated Snagret holds a treasure, so concentrate on it and avoid the Burrowing Snagret. It is advisable to search for the Pileated on the rim of the pit, so that it can be attacked without having to worry about getting pulled away. It will leave behind the [[Lustrous Element]].

== Sublevel 5 (Rest Level)  ==

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 in the butt. 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.

Another rest-stop sublevel. On this floor, there is a large amount of Candypop buds. There is also a [[Bulbmin]] if you don't have a full party of 100. A few doodlebugs also appear on this sublevel, as well as a geyser. The doodlebugs are a valuable source of ultra-bitter sprays.

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.

In this sublevel you fight [[Empress Bulblax]]. This one produces [[Bulborb Larva]]. Where you start out you see its rear end so call your Pikmin and run to its face. Then start attacking it. Do not worry about the larva, Empress Bublax will run them over herself. You will also need to run when it hits the walls when it rolls because boulders will fall in your general area. When you defeat it you will get the [[Favorite Gyro Block]]. Consider breaking down the fence that blocks the hole to the next sublevel; it will give you more room to dodge the falling boulders.

Sublevel 12 is like a rest stop. The enemies (flint beetles) here are harmless, save for the doodlebug. There is also an [[Iridescent Glint Beetle]] that when you hit it (which is easy to do with Purples) it will give you the [[Lost Gyro Block]]. And that is the only treasure on that floor. There is a geyser here in case you need to leave, and there are also queen candypop buds.

In sublevels 13-15 you fight one of each enemy in the [[Arachnorb]] family. In sublevel 13 you will fight [[Man-at-Legs]]. It is surrounded by water, so have one pilot hide all non-blue Pikmin in the corner near the research pod while the other takes blues in to fight the Man-at-Legs. During the fight, use the bumps in the arena as cover. It will drop the [[Memorable Gyro Block]].

In this Sublevel, there are a lot of [[Dweevil family|Dweevil]]s, some pools of water, and a [[Beady Long Legs]]. The Beady Long Legs will fall from the sky if you stand where the treasure meter goes crazy for a little while. First, you should use the captains to kill all the Dweevils, and then use Purple, Blue, or Red Pikmin to fight the Beady Long Legs. The treasure it will give you the [[Fond Gyro Block]]. It may fall in the water, so take some Blues with you afterward.
