The '''Frontier Cavern''' is the last cavern found in the [[Valley of Repose]] area. To get to it, you may have to clear the area of [[Bulborbs]], [[Blowhogs]], Cannon Beetles, and a [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]]. Before building the bridge to the upper section, where the entrance is, you should get rid of the [[Withering Blowhog]] in the area.

The [[Empress Bulblax]] is slightly different than the one in [[Hole of Beasts]] in that it gives birth to [[Bulborb Larva]] every few seconds. In this cave, there are 1395 [[Poko]]s worth of treasures.

Before starting this cave, you should probably have a good number of purple and blue pikmin. Make sure you have all the other types too. On the first sublevel there should be some doodle bugs which, getting enough pikmin thrown on, should give out some sprays. Be sure to stock up on them.

This sublevel has many Snow Bulborbs and a couple of Hairy Bulborbs. Before engaging the Hairy Bulborbs, take out any Snow Bulborbs near it then attack the hairy monstrosities. Explore the area and have your [[White Pikmin]] unearth any buried treasures. There is a Violet Candypop Bud if you have less than 20 total Purple Pikmin. When wandering about the area, you may encounter Doodlebugs. After they have emerged from their cover, they may skitter into a [[Figwort]]. If this happens you can wait until they move and release flatulence to locate them. This is a good time to stock up on [[Ultra-Bitter Spray]]s.

You are likely to fall where there is a large stump. Shelter all of your Pikmin behind it to protect them. Venture out into the sublevel without any Pikmin and use the [[Decorated Cannon Beetle]]s to clear out any enemies. Then use one of the rocky projectiles to kill the other Decorated Cannon Beetle. Then have the colorful, rock-hurling creature kill itself by having the boulder home in on itself. Afterwards, take your comrades collect the Christmas-themed treasures.

Gather all of you Pikmin and scout the level, deactivating any electric generators and [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s. If you can, locate the Bulbmin and kill it before the [[Spotty Bulbear]] as it will make things easier. If there are any, gather the juvenile [[Bulbmin]] and locate the Spotty Bulbear. Use whatever killing strategy you want, just make sure you bring its corpse back if it did not disintegrate and the [[Danger Chime]].

After all the Anode Beetles are massacred, take out the Swooping Snitchbugs and the Bumbling Snitchbug and proceed to collect the treasures. When you attempt to collect a treasure in an alcove, however, another Bumbling Snitchbug will drop from the ceiling. Kill it then continue collecting the treasure. There is a Violet Candypop Bud here to harvest more Purple Pikmin.

Time to have a rematch with the [[Empress Bulblax]], only this time, she produces Bulborb Larva, always ravenous Grub-dogs. Have one captain clear out all or most of the larvae and have the other toss all the Pikmin up on the ledge behind the landing point. Have the captain you sent out call all the Pikmin and fight the obese Grub-dog. There is not difference in the fight except for the fact that she produces larva. Don't worry about the larva after engaging the empress in combat as she will squish them when she does her rolling attack. After the battle, collect the Repugnant Appendage and kill any remaining Bulborb Larva. The Repugnant Appendage will grant the captains a massive speed boost and the resistance to a [[Puffy Blowhog]]'s exhaling attack. Exit the geyser and continue your treasure hunt.

|} The Frontier Cavern is the last cavern found in the Valley of Repose area. To get to it, you may have to clear the area of Bulborbs, Blowhogs, Cannon Beetles, and a Cloaking Burrow-nit. Before building the bridge to the upper section, where the entrance is, you should get rid of the Withering Blowhog in the area. The Empress Bulblax in the bottom of this cave as the boss, is slightly different than the one in Hole of Beasts in that it gives birth to Bulborb Larva every few seconds. In this cave, there are 1395 Pokos worth of treasures.

Before starting this cave, you should probably have a good number of purple and blue pikmin. Make sure you have all the other types too. On the first sublevel there should be some doodle bugs which, getting enough pikmin thrown on, should give out some sprays. Be sure to stock up on them.

Walkthrough

Sublevel 1

This sublevel has many Snow Bulborbs and a couple of Hairy Bulborbs. Before engaging the Hairy Bulborbs, take out any Snow Bulborbs near it then attack the hairy monstrosities. Explore the area and have your White Pikmin unearth any buried treasures. When wandering about the area, you may encounter Doodlebugs. After they have emerged from their cover, they may skitter into a Figwort. If this happens you can wait until they move and release flatulence to locate them. This is a good time to stock up on Ultra-Bitter Sprays.

Sublevel 2

You are likely to fall where there is a large stump. Shelter all of your Pikmin behind it to protect them. Venture out into the sublevel without any Pikmin and use the Decorated Cannon Beetles to clear out any enemies. Then use one of the rocky projectiles to kill the other Decorated Cannon Beetle. Then have the colorful, rock-hurling creature kill itself by having the boulder home in on itself. Afterwards, take your comrades collect the Christmas-themed treasures.

Gather all of you Pikmin and scout the level, deactivating any electric generators and Dwarf Bulbears. If you can, locate the Bulbmin and kill it before the Spotty Bulbear as it will make things easier. If there are any, gather the juvenile Bulbmin and locate the Spotty Bulbear. Use whatever killing strategy you want, just make sure you bring its corpse back if it did not disintegrate and the Danger Chime. Explore the area once all the hazards are cleared and collect and unearth any treasures.

This is a very large sublevel. Gather all your Yellow Pikmin and kill all the Anode Beetles, but watch out for the Swooping Snitchbugs and Bumbling Snitchbug.

When you attempt to collect a treasure in an alcove, however, another Bumbling Snitchbug will drop from the ceiling. Kill it then continue collecting the treasure. There is a Violet Candypop Bud here to harvest more Purple Pikmin.

Sublevel 5

A rest sublevel, but unique as it is one of the only 3 rest sublevels to possess a treasure. There are some Mamutas here, kill them all until one drops the Brute Knuckles. Kill the Caustic Dweevil before you collect the treasure as the four-legged nuisance will attempt to carry the Brute Knuckles on its back. The Brute Knuckles allows you to use the Rocket Punch when collected. There are some Lapis Lazuli Candypop Buds and a Violet Candypop Bud here if you are low on Blue Pikmin and Purple Pikmin. Killing the Unmarked Spectralids will cause them to drop nectar to power up your leaf Pikmin and occasionally sprays.

Sublevel 6

The reason why so many Lapis Lazuli Candypop Buds were on the previous sublevel is this sublevel. Before taking your Blue Pikmin to collect treasure, have the Decorated Cannon Beetles kill the enemies, flame geysers, and each other then collected the two chess pieces with your Blue Pikmin and Bulbmin.

Sublevel 8 (Final Floor)
