'''Rest sublevel''', also referred to as '''rest stop''' or '''rest level''', is a general term used to describe [[sublevel]]s in [[cave]]s in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' that contain no or very few harmful [[:category:enemies|enemies]], other [[hazards]], and large amounts of helpful items such as [[nectar]], [[Ultra-bitter Spray|Ultra-bitter-]] or [[Ultra-spicy Spray]], or [[Candypop Bud]]s. A somewhat common exception to the "harmless enemy only" rule is [[Doodlebug]]s, two Caustic Dweevils in one case, and [[Bulbmin]] found in another.
'''Rest sublevel''', also referred to as '''rest stop''' or '''rest level''', is a general term used to describe [[sublevel]]s in [[cave]]s in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' that contain no or very few harmful [[Piklopedia|enemies]] or other [[hazards]], and large amounts of helpful items such as [[nectar]], [[Ultra-bitter spray|Ultra-bitter-]] or [[Ultra-spicy spray]], or [[Candypop Bud]]s. A somewhat common exception to the "harmless enemy only" rule is [[Doodlebug]]s, two Caustic Dweevils in one case, and [[Bulbmin]] found in another. [[Mamuta]]s can also be found on some, but those help the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. They can, however, hurt the [[Leader|Captain]]s.


A fair proportion of rest levels contain [[geyser]]s, and they are most commonly found in long and difficult caves, often before or after sublevels containing [[:category:bosses|boss enemies]]. Such levels usually contain large amounts of flora, [[Unmarked Spectralid]] swarms, [[Mitites]], pipes which act as tunnels, and water low enough for ''any'' Pikmin to safely walk through. These areas can be identified by a calm [[music]].
If you find a [[Candypop Bud]] and have the need to have a full group of flower Pikmin, it's not unusual for some to throw their soldiers into the flower and wait for them to bloom. This works easily with any flower in any sublevel, but doing so above ground tends to be a huge waste of time.

Revision as of 22:31, October 2, 2013

Rest sublevel, also referred to as rest stop or rest level, is a general term used to describe sublevels in caves in Pikmin 2 that contain no or very few harmful enemies, other hazards, and large amounts of helpful items such as nectar, Ultra-bitter- or Ultra-spicy Spray, or Candypop Buds. A somewhat common exception to the "harmless enemy only" rule is Doodlebugs, two Caustic Dweevils in one case, and Bulbmin found in another.

If you find a Candypop Bud and have the need to have a full group of flower Pikmin, it's not unusual for some to throw their soldiers into the flower and wait for them to bloom. This works easily with any flower in any sublevel, but doing so above ground tends to be a huge waste of time.

A fair proportion of rest levels contain geysers, and they are most commonly found in long and difficult caves, often before or after sublevels containing boss enemies. Such levels usually contain large amounts of flora, Unmarked Spectralid swarms, Mitites, pipes which act as tunnels, and water low enough for any Pikmin to safely walk through.
