Suggestions:

  • Describe how long a spring takes to re-enable.
  • Write down a list of levels, their requirement for unlocking, a general overview of how they look like, and how many rocks of each type they have.

Sparklium Springs are special areas in Hey! Pikmin in which Captain Olimar can gather a lot of Sparklium that falls from the sky, under a time limit.

These areas take place in a single room, in which the camera does not move, and once the challenge starts, Pikmin pop out from a bubble on the top screen, and fall down to Olimar on the bottom screen. Shortly thereafter, Sparklium rocks start falling from the sky. These rocks are collected by having either Olimar or a Pikmin touch them, but disappear if they touch the floor. Considering thrown Pikmin do not bounce back after touching them, and that they usually fall in groups, having Olimar collect rocks from one group while throwing Pikmin to handle a group farther away is key to getting the most out the spring.

Throughout this, a timer ticks down. Occasionally, clocks fall from the sky, and can be collected just like a rock. Once they're collected, they add 10 seconds to the timer. There are three types of rocks:

  • The yellow rocks in the Sparklium Springs. Small yellow rocks: The most common type. They are worth each.
  • The red rocks in the Sparklium Springs. Larger red rocks: These are rarer, and appear in harder patterns. They are worth each.
  • The rainbow rocks in the Sparklium Springs. Big rainbow rocks: These usually appear at final seconds of the challenge, so it is important to collect as many clocks as possible. They are worth each.

Once a spring is entered, it cannot be reentered until some real-time hours have passed.
