'''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]] 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.

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. They can however, hurt the [[Captain]]s.


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 [[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]].

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 or 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. Mamutas can also be found on some, but those help the Pikmin. They can however, hurt the Captains.

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. These areas can be identified by a calm music.

Trivia

  • There is a total of 11 rest sublevels in the game, distributed in 8 caves, making up 10.47% of all sublevels in the game.
  • The only cave with three rest sublevels is the Hole of Heroes and the only one with two is the Subterranean Complex. All other caves containing any have only one.
  • The only caves in the game with rest sublevels that contain treasure, is sublevel 3 of White Flower Garden, and sublevel 4 of Shower Room. When the Pikmin carry a treasure, the rest level's theme seems somewhat upgraded. You only hear this twice in the game.
