The '''Shower Room''' is a dungeon found in the [[Perplexing Pool]] [[areas|area]] of ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', the [[sublevel]]s of which have mostly the same style as the 2P location [[Tile Lands]]. To access the [[cave]], a [[bridge]] must be built across the lake behind the landing area so that [[Yellow Pikmin]] can cross to destroy the electric [[gate]] there. [[Blue Pikmin|Blues]] are needed next in order to destroy the rock formation covering the cave entrance, allowing Pikmin of other colours to approach it more easily.
{{guide}}
The '''Shower Room''' ({{j|シャワールーム|Shawā Rūmu|Shower Room}}) is a [[cave]] found in the [[Perplexing Pool]] [[areas|area]] of ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', the sublevels of which are themed around tiled washrooms and piping systems. The boss of the cave is the [[Ranging Bloyster]]. Due to the Bloyster's leader swapping gimmick, it’s recommended for one to take extra care in keeping both leaders alive. In the US [[Region|version]] of this cave, there are {{pokos|1220}} worth of treasure. In the European version of this cave, there are {{pokos|1240}} worth of treasure.


It is possible to avoid building the bridge by [[Throw#Longer throw trick|throwing blues while running]] to land near the cave and unblock it. This allows yellows to approach the gate without the use of the bridge. It is also possible to enter the cave without destroying that gate via the [[scales glitch]]; other types of Pikmin can be brought in by having the other [[captain]] bring them to the cave area and whistling him with the one behind the gate.
==How to reach==

In the US [[Region|version]] of this cave, there are 1220 [[Poko]]s worth of treasure. In the European version of this cave, there are 1240 [[Poko]]s worth of treasure.
To the right of base is a large pond containing a [[Toady Bloyster]]. By going into this pond, you can find a [[bridge]]. Build this bridge, and use the ledge that was required in {{p1}} to collect the [[Repair-type Bolt]] to bring [[Yellow Pikmin]] across the river, and have them destroy the electric [[gate]]. Use [[Blue Pikmin]] to destroy the clog, revealing the cave. A side effect of destroying the clog is that all Pikmin types can cross the river.


There are few special considerations in terms of Pikmin squads. However, there are a few heavy treasures that might appear in water, making sufficient [[Blue Pikmin]] a must.
One can use the bridge's geometry to get a leader on top of the nearby ledge, and go [[out of bounds]] to the entrance of the cave without having to destroy the electric gate.{{cite youtube|8WIq8-8XWIE|explaining how to reach Shower Room without Yellow Pikmin|published={{date|13|July|2018}}|retrieved={{date|9|April|2020}}}}

Electrical wires should block the paths, sometimes with Watery Blowhogs nearby. In this instance, Yellow Pikmin should still be used to shut off the wires because they can still be easily saved from any water. Apart from the enemies, some boulders may fall from the ceiling. However, the level has a simple layout, so the treasure should be easy to find. The Ivory Candypop Bud here only appears if the player has less than 20 White Pikmin in total.

Humorously, [[Wolpole]]s will occasionally drop from the sky, and since they are not in water, they will flail about helplessly and pose no problem for the player.

==Sublevel 4==
A very large rest level. This is a unique level layout, only seen once in the main game mode. It appears to take the place in some pipes and under a street drainage vent. There are some [[Queen Candypop Bud]]s here. Also, if you need to leave, there is a geyser available. Although water flows through the pipes, it is shallow enough so that any Pikmin type can pass through without any trouble. This rest level is also similar to the [[Hidden Garden]], [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]]'s twenty-third level, with a few minor changes.

A very large rest level. This is a unique level layout, only seen once in the main game mode. It appears to take the place in some pipes and under a street drainage vent. There are some [[Queen Candypop Bud]]s here. Also, if you need to leave, there is a geyser available. Although water flows through the pipes, it is shallow enough so that any Pikmin type can pass through without any trouble, Also Note that this rest level is similar to the [[Hidden Garden]], Challenge mode's twenty-third level with a few minor changes.

In rare occasions, a Fiery and a Withering Blowhog are behind a gate that must be destroyed to collect treasure. Not only does this mean that one should only use [[Red Pikmin]], but that these will also be deflowered. Restarting this layout is '''highly''' recommended. Also, some fire geysers could pose a threat to non-Reds. Note that the Violet Candypop Bud here may fail to appear entirely, as detailed [[Pikmin 2 cave generation|here]] and [[Mistake#Missing sublevel objects|here]].

The first thing one should do is set off the Volatile Dweevil that is hiding in one of the pipes. The Orange Bulborb may be sitting in front of the Rubber Ugly; also, just like the Volatile Dweevil, all Dweevils are hiding in the pipes, so they could take treasures that are being carried by Pikmin. One good way to deal with Dweevils is to throw a Purple Pikmin at or near it to stun it, but '''do not''' throw Purples at Volatile Dweevils, since the Pikmin will very likely be killed in the following explosion.

==Trivia==
*The Shower Room is the only cave whose entrance is initially blocked off.
*The area around the entrance to the Shower Room is in the shape of a sink, with the entrance being fittingly placed right on top of the sink's drain hole.

Shower Room
An overview of sublevel 3 of the Shower Room.
Location Perplexing Pool
Sublevels 7
Treasures 14
Hazards Fire Water Electricity Poison Explosion

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

The Shower Room (シャワールーム?, lit.: "Shower Room") is a cave found in the Perplexing Pool area of Pikmin 2, the sublevels of which are themed around tiled washrooms and piping systems. The boss of the cave is the Ranging Bloyster. Due to the Bloyster's leader swapping gimmick, it’s recommended for one to take extra care in keeping both leaders alive. In the US version of this cave, there are Poko × 1220 worth of treasure. In the European version of this cave, there are Poko × 1240 worth of treasure.

How to reach

PP texture.png
cave
File:PP texture.png
Location of the cave.

To the right of base is a large pond containing a Toady Bloyster. By going into this pond, you can find a bridge. Build this bridge, and use the ledge that was required in Pikmin to collect the Repair-type Bolt to bring Yellow Pikmin across the river, and have them destroy the electric gate. Use Blue Pikmin to destroy the clog, revealing the cave. A side effect of destroying the clog is that all Pikmin types can cross the river.

There are few special considerations in terms of Pikmin squads. However, there are a few heavy treasures that might appear in water, making sufficient Blue Pikmin a must.

One can use the bridge's geometry to get a leader on top of the nearby ledge, and go out of bounds to the entrance of the cave without having to destroy the electric gate.[1]

Notes

Ship's dialogs

“A large rock sits in a reservoir of water. May I interject here?

I have been observing the two of you working together. You have been cooperating well.

Yet, to face the dangers ahead, you must be free of the shackles of a boss-worker relationship!

Learn to use X to separate and Y to change leaders.

If you can master teamwork, you can overcome any impediment!”

Sublevel 1

Electrical wires should block the paths, sometimes with Watery Blowhogs nearby. In this instance, Yellow Pikmin should still be used to shut off the wires because they can still be easily saved from any water. Apart from the enemies, some boulders may fall from the ceiling. However, the level has a simple layout, so the treasure should be easy to find. The Ivory Candypop Bud here only appears if the player has less than 20 White Pikmin in total.

Humorously, Wolpoles will occasionally drop from the sky, and since they are not in water, they will flail about helplessly and pose no problem for the player.

Sublevel 2

Apart from the boulders, Dwarf Orange Bulborbs fall from the ceiling as well. They could become a nuisance when attacking the Jellyfloat or the larger Orange Bulborb. The Violet Candypop Bud here will only appear if the player's total Purple Pikmin count is less than 20.

Sublevel 3

Sometimes this level has 6-7 enemies all gathered in one spot; should this happen, a bitter spray would be recommended, or regenerating the sublevel by resetting. Be prepared for any Water Dumples that drop from above.

Sublevel 4

Sublevel 4 of the Shower Room.
The rest level.

A very large rest level. This is a unique level layout, only seen once in the main game mode. It appears to take the place in some pipes and under a street drainage vent. There are some Queen Candypop Buds here. Also, if you need to leave, there is a geyser available. Although water flows through the pipes, it is shallow enough so that any Pikmin type can pass through without any trouble. This rest level is also similar to the Hidden Garden, Challenge Mode's twenty-third level, with a few minor changes.

Sublevel 5

In rare occasions, a Fiery and a Withering Blowhog are behind a gate that must be destroyed to collect treasure. Not only does this mean that one should only use Red Pikmin, but that these will also be deflowered. Restarting this layout is highly recommended. Also, some fire geysers could pose a threat to non-Reds. Note that the Violet Candypop Bud here may fail to appear entirely, as detailed here and here.

Sublevel 6

The first thing one should do is set off the Volatile Dweevil that is hiding in one of the pipes. The Orange Bulborb may be sitting in front of the Rubber Ugly; also, just like the Volatile Dweevil, all Dweevils are hiding in the pipes, so they could take treasures that are being carried by Pikmin. One good way to deal with Dweevils is to throw a Purple Pikmin at or near it to stun it, but do not throw Purples at Volatile Dweevils, since the Pikmin will very likely be killed in the following explosion.

See also: Ranging Bloyster strategy.

Some gates have to be torn down to get to the Bloyster. Be careful, as sometimes its tentacles can reach through the gate. See the link above for a very effective strategy.

Note that due to the way sublevel generation works, there is a 1 in 2,147,483,648 chance that the Ranging Bloyster will not appear, as explained here.

Trivia

  • The Shower Room is the only cave whose entrance is initially blocked off.
  • The area around the entrance to the Shower Room is in the shape of a sink, with the entrance being fittingly placed right on top of the sink's drain hole.
