The '''Cradle of the Beast''' is a [[cave]] in the [[Giant's Hearth]] in [[Pikmin 4]]. It's named for its boss, the [[Empress Bulblax]], who now gives birth to [[Bulborb Larva]] as you fight it. [[Purple Pikmin]] are useful here for carrying the larger treasures and stomping on smaller enemies. This cave has {{sparklium|p4|1,305}} worth of treasure.


== How to reach ==
The Cradle of the Beast resides in the southern part of the map, guarded by a [[Bloomcap Bloyster]] and blocked by hay bales. There are two paths the player can take to reach this area, both of which require using [[Fire starter|fire starters]] to reach. One path is just south of the Abandoned Throne base and is the shortest of the two. The player will have to deal with a sprinkler system and a [[Masterhop]] before they burn away the hay bales leading directly to the cave. The second path is longer but easier. The only obstacles in this path are a pond with [[Wolpole|Wolpoles]] that must be drained to get a fire starter to the hay bale on the eastern edge and a pushable box near a [[Bug-Eyed Crawmad]] den. The cave can then be accessed by burning the last set of hay bales surrounding it.

Depending on Oatchi's upgrade status, a certain amount of Purple Pikmin are needed to collect the [[King of Meats]], which weighs 300 and has a max carrier capacity of 100:
If Oatchi's Buff ability hasn't been upgraded at all, at least 22 Purple Pikmin are needed (22 Purple + 78 non-Purple + Oatchi = 301).
If Oatchi's Super Buff ability has been fully upgraded, at least 12 Purple Pikmin are needed (12 Purple + 88 non-Purple + Oatchi = 308).
