An overview of the area

The Perplexing Pool is the third and largest area discovered in Pikmin 2 of the four areas in the game, the last being Wistful Wild. It is the wettest area in Pikmin 2, with a lot of lakes spread across its length, with two of the holes being submerged which requires Blue Pikmin in these areas. The level contains four holes, seven treasures, and a variety of beasts. There are also Yellow Pikmin in Pikmin 2 found in this area. 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 the first game, for which reason it be confidently considered to be the same area of the Pikmin planet. Despite the similarities, there are some differences: for example, large parts are missing in the later version, and obstacles such as bridges and gates have been changed. Also, the size of the lake to the west has been changed.

Additional enemies appear after day 30. These creatures are rather difficult to defeat, making it advisable for inexperienced players to complete this area before that day. Also, the small piece of land in the south is now the entrance to the Shower Room, and the drain to the lake.

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.
