The segment starts off with an open room containing [[Yellow Spectralids]]. The corridor on the other end splits into two, with one side heading to a new room and the other being blocked off by a [[paper bag]] on a higher ledge.

The second room has [[Red Bulborb]]s and a [[dirt wall]] blocking the way forward. It also has a pathway coming off the side that drops down to the Spectralids room for a one-way shortcut back.

After that room is a T-junction. To the left, there is a small room with [[Candypop Bud]]s, closed off by a [[crystal wall]]. To the right, the path goes up and accesses the next room. There is an [[iron ball]] at the entrance, that can be used to burst open the aforementioned crystal wall.

To start, ascend the obvious path up the Formidable Oak, and fight the golden blob you find. Once it has been defeated, you will find [[Captain Olimar]]. Assign five Pikmin of types you feel are expendable, and [[Brittany]] will begin to guide them. As you follow her through the only available path, the [[Mysterious Life-Form]] will begin the chase.

When you first enter the first room and get started in earnest, the first thing to note is to move forward. There is exactly one path you can take, and that path will lead to a [[Red Bulborb]] and six [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]]s. Defeat at least the ones on the left side (facing the way you entered said room), and put all of your Pikmin to work on the dirt wall opposite. Brittany now has a full loop she can take to make the Mysterious Life-Form completely ignore you, making solving the puzzles here a lot easier, provided you remind Brittany to Go Here! in a triangular fashion whenever prompted.

Once the dirt wall is destroyed, go up the pathway to find an [[iron ball]]. Roll it down the hill to destroy a crystal wall, and get access to an alcove containing [[Shearwig]]s, two [[Candypop Bud]]s ([[Golden Candypop Bud|Gold]] and [[Gray Candypop Bud|Gray]]), a dirt mound with three bomb rocks, and a [[data file]]. Collect these bomb rocks: they are really valuable later.
