The '''Sniper Room''' is the twenty-ninth level in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge mode]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. There is only one sublevel, but, as there are many enemies, it can get difficult. These enemies include [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]]s, [[Snow Bulborb]]s, a [[Decorated Cannon Beetle]], an [[Armored Cannon Beetle Larva]], and a [[Gatling Groink]].

It should be noted that this level is the only one in the game series that is played at night on [[PNF-404]], [[Twilight Garden]] being the only one played during the gloomy sundown. It is also the only level in Challenge Mode to include [[Foxtail]]s or [[Seeding Dandelion]]s.
This challenge level was the first instance in the {{ps}} where one could play on [[PNF-404]]'s surface at night, predating [[night expeditions]] in {{p4}}. However, this doesn't affect gameplay, beyond the very dim lighting.

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

The Sniper Room is the twenty-ninth level in Pikmin 2's Challenge Mode. While it only consists of a single sublevel, it is filled with a variety of powerful enemies that tend to use projectiles, making completing the level rather difficult, especially if going for a pink flower. These enemies include Dwarf Orange Bulborbs, Snow Bulborbs, a Decorated Cannon Beetle, an Armored Cannon Beetle Larva, and a Gatling Groink.

This challenge level was the first instance in the Pikmin series where one could play on PNF-404's surface at night, predating night expeditions in Pikmin 4. However, this doesn't affect gameplay, beyond the very dim lighting.

Sublevel 1Edit

The enemies here mostly use projectiles, hence the cave's name, so they can be used to attack each other. It is advisable to use the spray against the Groink. Treasures are spread throughout the field, and the key is well hidden.

With two players, one player can distract the Groink, while the other sneaks up from behind and attacks from the shovel.

19   Armored Cannon Beetle Larva (buried) 1[Sublevel 1 note 1] None "Special" enemy spots
-   Tear Stone Carried inside entry with ID 19
Then it spawns these "decoration" objects:
ID Object Amount Fall method Spawn location
16   Foxtail 6 None Plant spots
17   Figwort (large brown) 8 None Plant spots
18   Seeding Dandelion 4 None Plant spots
Then it spawns these "treasure" objects:
ID Object Amount Fall method Spawn location
20   The Key 1 None Treasure spots
21   Eternal Emerald Eye 1 None Treasure spots
22   Crystal Clover 1 None Treasure spots
23   Gyroid Bust 1 None Treasure spots
24   Colossal Fossil 1 None Treasure spots
Then it spawns these "dead end" objects:
ID Object Amount Fall method Spawn location
25   Egg 1 None Dead ends
Then it spawns "dead end" objects in as many dead ends as it can. Chances:
ID Object Chance Fall method Spawn location
25   Egg 100% None Dead ends
  1. ^ a b c The sublevel's data makes it so 2 Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae (and 2 Tear Stones) should spawn in total, but no sublevel layout can ever accommodate them. All layouts end up generating exactly 1 (of each). Because the Beetle on "hard" enemy spots comes first in the sublevel data, that's the one that ends up being spawned.
For details on how objects are spawned, and how some may fail to spawn, see here.
