Like the [[Frontier Cavern]], it is impossible to reach this cave before getting [[Blue Pikmin]]. Use Blue Pikmin to remove the [[clog]] in the first pond and build a [[bridge]] over the second. Once this is done, Pikmin of all types can be brought across. Beside the [[Watery Blowhog]] that is beyond the clump of enemies is a gate covered by [[gas pipe]]s, requiring [[White Pikmin]] to destroy. The cave is located beyond this gate, up a slope that is challenging for Pikmin to climb. Defeating the [[Decorated Cannon Beetle]]s, the various [[Blowhogs]] and the [[Cloaking Burrow-Nit]] is recommended, but not strictly necessary.

No water is found in this cave, so your Pikmin squad should not include [[Blue Pikmin]]. The hazards of this dungeon are limited, with more focus being placed on [[bomb rock]] explosions, so minimal care needs to be placed on the proportions of the other Pikmin types. There is little reason to include less than 100 Pikmin in your party to take advantage of the [[Queen Candypop Buds]] until after all treasures have been collected, unless you elected to bring a small squad of [[Purple Pikmin]]. This is because the [[Queen Candypop Buds]] are located on sublevel 8, and the only danger following is the [[Man-at-Legs]].

The cave starts off with the first sublevel having a snowy cave appearance, much like the other caves in the Valley of Repose. However, this is the only sublevel in this cave to have a snowy theme.

Start by destroying the poison gas pipes and defeating some [[Bumbling Snitchbug]]s if they happen to be an annoyance. The [[Snow Bulborb]]s and [[Hairy Bulborb]]s can then be dealt with, preferably using [[Purple Pikmin]]. There are two treasures in this level: the [[Nouveau Table]], which should be buried, and the [[Exhausted Superstick]].

The Subterranean Complex is an excellent cave to increase the populations of [[Purple Pikmin]] and [[White Pikmin]]. On the third sublevel there will be a lone [[Ivory Candypop Bud]]. (Should it not be there, resetting the game and reloading the level should make it appear eventually.) The next sublevel contains three Ivory Candypops. On the eighth sublevel there will be three [[Violet Candypop Bud]]s and two [[Queen Candypop Bud]]s.

To get large numbers of both types, at least 22 of any Pikmin type other than White or Purple should be brought along into the cave, and used for every Candypop Bud available. If just Purple Pikmin are desired, only 1 Pikmin needs to be brought into the cave, and the player can run to the hole in the first 7 sublevels to reach the eighth, where the Queen Candypop Buds can be used to generate Pikmin for the Violet Candypop Buds. The eggs scattered about this sublevel will provide nectar for the [[Maturity|leaf and bud]] Pikmin. The cave can then be exited via the geyser. This process can be repeated infinitely, as the Candypop Buds are not [[Candypop family#Maximum Pikmin requirement|limited]] to a certain number of White or Purple Pikmin total.
