The Shallow End is the last main area in the Verdant Waterfront. It takes place in a lake, much like most of the Verdant Waterfront's areas, but has some crystals with sharp edges, resembling icicles. Some of these will fall after Captain Olimar gets to close, so the player has to either outrun them or bait them into falling, to avoid having them fall on Olimar or the Pikmin.

Cutscenes

Cutscene	Screenshot	Trigger	Description
Stone carrying		The player moves a bit beyond the first lake.	Four Blue Pikmin carrying a stone come from off-camera. They carry it to the center of the scene, drop it, and scurry to hide behind it. Two of the Pikmin peek out eventually, but end up going back down.
Earthquake		The player leaves the pool with Large Splurchins, climbs to the ledge on the left that needs the jetpack, and goes a bit further to the left.	The camera focuses on a stone. The ground begins to shake, and three Blue Pikmin pop out of the stone and start panicking. A fourth Blue Pikmin gets up slowly, but is too sleepy to care about the shaking. The rumbling eventually stops, and the scared Pikmin shake their heads and return to hiding behind the rock. The sleepy Pikmin does the same, but much slower, and still without much of a reaction.
