'''Springpetal Cave''' ({{j|ねじまく はなの どうくつ|Neji maku Hana no dō kutsu}}) is the third main area of the [[Sparkling Labyrinth]] in ''[[Hey! Pikmin]]''. It makes great use of the eponymous [[Springpetal]]s. There are two main rooms in this area: both are large rooms with a Springpetal on the bottom floor, and with several floors higher up, made of branches, and with pathways to other sections of the area. The mechanic in these rooms involves the player getting as many Pikmin as they can in the bottom floor, then using the extra weight to jump to a higher floor, and using the Pikmin found there to jump even higher, or to continue forward.

== Description ==
In this area, the player is introduced to [[Springpetal]]s, that are used to jump more or less high in the air, depending of how many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] [[Olimar]] has with him. This area also contains a lot of [[doorway]]s. After making some progress in the level, the player can retrieve the first treasure, the [[Manifested Time Container]]. In order to do that, Olimar has to break a [[crystal]] with his [[Rock Pikmin]], then spring to the treasure. Near the end of the level, there are some doorways making some kind of labyrinth. In the rooms on the other side, the player can find some Pikmin. The player needs at least 18 Pikmin, in order to spring really high into the air, thanks to a Springpetal, and to get access of the [[Dutiful Watchdog]]. After that, the player can go to the end of the level.

! Springpetal introduction
| [[File:Springpetal Cave flower cutscene.jpg|200px]]
| After going down the two [[vine]]s, the player continues a bit forward.
| Olimar notices a [[Springpetal]] up ahead, and a lone Red Pikmin above it, on a branch. This Pikmin is trying to reach a higher branch with some [[Sparklium Seed]]s on it. The Pikmin then jumps on top of the flower, presses down, and is barely shot high at all. Three other Pikmin show up on the same starting branch in the meantime, and they all decide to jump down to cause more pressure onto the flower. This proves to be a success, since they manage to actually reach the seeds this time. They celebrate for a bit with the seeds in their hands, and then make their way to Olimar.

! Glass cup
| [[File:Springpetal Cave cup cutscene.jpg|200px]]
| In the main room of the area, the player enters a doorway, goes down the [[vine]], and advances to the right.
| Four Rock Pikmin are carrying a small glass cup. One of the Pikmin that are going backwards trips, and the whole group tips the cup, dropping it. This causes it to break. As the cup vanishes, the Pikmin look down and shake their heads in disappointment. They eventually snap out of it and run to Olimar's side.
|-
! Firework cone
| [[File:Springpetal Cave firework cutscene.jpg|200px]]
| From the vine that leads to the second main room, the player climbs all the way up the vine, drops to the pathway on the right, and advances forward.
| Four Red Pikmin are idling next to a partially buried {{w|firework cone}}. Three of them jump inside the popper, while the fourth one stays close to the cord. Curious, it starts to tug at the cord, until the popper eventually explodes. All that remains is the three Red Pikmin, standing upright, all charred up. After a second of standing still, all four jump up, run in a circle panicking, and rush in Olimar's direction.
