The '''Engulfed Castle''' is a [[cave]] in the [[Serene Shores]] in {{p4}}. It has five sublevels. Only Blue Pikmin can access its entrance, as it is submerged in undrainable water. [[Hazards]] of all types appear throughout the cave; [[Glow Pikmin]] spawned from Glow Seeds or a suitably upgraded [[Oatchi]] can be utilized to clear them, although neither are strictly required, as all hazards can be destroyed or circumvented even with just Blue Pikmin.

The boss of this cave, the [[Waterwraith]], is unique in that it will drop from the ceiling after five minutes have passed in any sublevel. It is extremely dangerous, instantly killing both [[Pikmin]] and [[enemies]] indiscriminately. It cannot be hurt whatsoever until the cave's final sublevel, where [[Violet Candypop Bud]]s will allow for the creation of its only weakness, [[Purple Pikmin]]. Defeating the [[Waterwraith]] unlocks an exit leading to the top of an otherwise inaccessible hill, allowing passage to much of the Serene Shore's upper half. This cave has {{sparklium|p4|1,145}} worth of treasure.

Because of its placement, and requirement to complete to access the upper half of Serene Shores, it's likely to be where the player first discovers Purple Pikmin.
