Hole of Monsters

The Hole of Monsters is a cave in the Forest of Peace, and likely the second cave explored in Pikmin: Revenge of the Darkfreeze. This cave is a test of strength to prepare for upcoming areas and caves.

Sublevel 1

 * Dwarf Red Bulborb

This sublevel is very simple. The Brown Goodness is in the corner.

Sublevel 2

 * Mechawog

This sublevel introduces a new enemy, the Mechawog. These can not crush Pikmin but can slash them apart when too close. Ordinary Pikmin is ineffective, so use Purple Pikmin to destroy their armor. The Strange Cylinder is rewarded after they die.

Sublevel 3

 * Dwarf Red Bulborb
 * Red Bulborb

Sometimes, the Red Bulborb spawns near the landing point. Two or three Dwarf Bulborbs are near the Red Bulborb, and the rest are scattered about. The Red Bulborb carries the Serrated Disc, and the Giant Red Cap is on a pillar.

Sublevel 4

 * Queen Candypop Bud
 * Violet Candypop Bud

Because the only Pikmin available are Red Pikmin, the Queen Candypop Bud has only red spots. An escape geyser is available if it is needed.

Sublevel 5

 * Mechaborb

This enemy is very dangerous. Like the Mechawog, it doesn't eat Pikmin, but it slashes them to bits if they come close. Attacks from the rear are effective. Use Purple Pikmin to attack. Deactivating the mighty beast yields the Macro Radar. The exit is on the opposite end of the arena.
