The Plunder Palace is a cave in the Hero's Hideaway in Pikmin 4. This toybox-themed cave has a large amount of treasure, but most of it will be likely stolen by wandering Breadbugs. Because of that, Purple Pikmin have an advantage with their stomps and ability to lift more than the average pikmin. This especially comes in handy with the strong Giant Breadbugs who act as the cave's boss, despite not being very dangerous. An encounter with a Porquillion atop a heightened vantage point acts as a mid-way encounter. This cave has  × 1,613 worth of treasure.

How to reach

Starting from the Stargazer's Spot, you first need to jump down onto the floor and head towards the top-left part of the living room, where you'll find a propeller platform that takes you to the top of a shelf. You may need to knock out Moss before you hop on the platform, but it isn't needed. Once you get up the top, you'll see the Buddy Display treasure, guarded by a Miniature Snootwhacker. Defeat it and walk past the treasure to the opposite side of the shelf. There, you'll find the entrance.

Notes

Olimar's Voyage Log

“Everywhere I look in this cave reminds me of home. Playing together with the children. Sitting around the table, sharing a meal as a family...as the dog pilfers my side dish. Just that humdrum, routine, irreplaceable everyday life.”

Trivia

• Louie specifically mentions this cave (as "something-something Palace" and "'insert word here' Palace") in his fifth Fit for a Feast quest, when requesting a single Giant Breadbug.
  • Unlike most of his other requests, this is the only cavern where Giant Breadbugs appear, meaning it cannot be completed elsewhere.
