Rest sublevel
Rest Sublevels, also known as Rest Stops, are special sublevels that have Pikmin-supporting items, such as nectar, Ultra-Bitter Spray, Ultra-spicy spray, or Candypop Buds. They usually either lack enemies or only have harmless enemies. A somewhat common exception to the "harmless enemy" rule is Doodlebugs or, in one case, Bulbmin. Some Rest Sublevels have Geysers, and they appear in long and difficult caves, sometimes before or after Boss Sublevels or in the middle of the cave. They commonly have a 'garden' theme, in where there are large amounts of flora, pipes which act like tunnels and water low enough for all pikmin to walk in.
