Vengeful Thicket (Pikmin X: Deep Freeze)

The Vengeful Thicket is the fifth area in Pikmin X: Deep Freeze. This area takes place in a mysterious autumnal region located at a mountainous altitude, characterized by its heavily vertical level structure, as well as the thick patches of brambles that grow throughout the area on practically any surface. Pikmin that touch these will get knocked away, stunned, and reduced to leaf stage unless they are Rock Pikmin, which are immune. Also common here are obstacles such as wet vines that necessitate the usage of Burr Pikmin, which are discovered here, and steep mountain faces which tend to have Armored Cannon Larvae at the top, periodically rolling down boulders. Other examples of vegetation located in this area include maple trees and woody shrubs.

No data chips are found here, but the Paralyzing Punch and Rugged Gloves are located in this area.
