Flooded Fields (Pikmin 251)

The Flooded Fields is the second area in Pikmin 251. It is actually the in a waterlogged state, though its spring theme persists. It is only accessible once Whimsical Radar has been collected. Red Pikmin are discovered near the landing site and Purple Pikmin are much later found in the Grub-dog Domain. Much like the Wistful Wild, only half of this area can be explored before Blue Pikmin are available. In the meantime, the Flooded Fields presents abundant resources and the Compacted Encyclopedia, which unlocks the Mystical Beach.

Key sections
Southeast from the landing site is a short, hollow stump where the Compacted Encyclopedia is found. A Burgeoning Spiderwort and Iridescent Flint Beetle can be found nearby. The entrance to the Wooded Fortress is also here, down by the shore. South from the landing site is an open location surrounded by stone brick architecture. It is plentiful in resources, notably the unique 20-Pellet Posy which appears here on later days. Many enemies and smaller posies further improve the Pikmin-growing capabilities of this location. The Flaming Trench can be entered through a hole near the water's edge. Further south is a large lake. Below the surface lies the landing site known from the Awakening Wood. A Bubbling Blowhog flies over this area and will reward a treasure once defeated. Little else can be found in the water, but its position in the center of the area increases the efficiency of solo exploration and object-carrying with Blue Pikmin. Even further south is a dry ledge with a few flowerpots. The Grub-dog Domain and Steel Catacombs can be seen atop the ledge, but accessing them may take some time. This is considered the last stretch of the Flooded Fields; Blue Pikmin are needed to clear the way along the West and access these caves.
