Sublevel 1
When you begin, you will be told that there are enemies lurking in this cave. Begin by moving into the bigger room of this sublevel. You will see 2 dwarf red bulborbs. Kill them the same way you would kill them in other pikmin games, then proceed to the next room. There will be a hole, and you will be told that there may be more below. All of a sudden, another dwarf red bulborb appears, but it is easy to kill. Proceed to the next sublevel.

Sublevel 2
When you come to this sublevel, there will be 3 dwarf bulborbs walking around and further on, a dwarf hairy bulborb. Kill them and proceed.

Sublevel 3
5 dwarf bulborbs wait for you when you arrive at this sublevel. Kill them and move to the next room. A red bulborb will start to charge at you, but a puffshroom will hit it's head and knock away half of it's health. Kill it and retrieve the puffshroom, then you will see a geyser. You will be told that it leads to the surface. Leave the dungeon.
