This page is part of the merge with Pikmin Wiki, and needs resolving. Please bear with us as we do so.

Before the import, this subject had a page both on Pikipedia and Pikmin Wiki. You are currently reading the Pikipedia version, and the Pikmin Wiki version can be found here. Both versions need to be manually merged together and placed on the current page.

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

This article or section needs to be cleaned up, either its format or general style.
Notes: Guides should refer to the player as "you".

The White Flower Garden is likely the second cavern you will enter in the Awakening Wood. It is slightly harder than Hole of Beasts, but still has five sublevels. This cave also has the next new type of Pikmin you'll discover, White Pikmin, which the cave was named for.

To get to the entrance of the White Flower Garden, you'll need to go the same way you went to get to the Hole of Beasts, but instead, you'll turn right and flatten the bag in your path, which requires the weight equivalent of 200 Pikmin to crush, calling the need for a few Purple Pikmin. A Cloaking Burrow-nit will be in your path, but you can ignore it if you wish. The cave entrance should be near a poison protected gate. In this cave for the US version, there are 580 pokos worth of treasures. In the European version, there are 670 pokos worth of treasures.

“Astounding! My metal detectors are reacting violently. What could be down below?

If you find trouble below, press START/PAUSE to contact me and press R on the radar screen.

The exploration pod will drop its loot to make room to carry you, Louie, and the Pikmin to safety.”

The first sublevel is simplistic, and only holds one treasure. The Cave type is Metallic, with a sandy floor for the most part. The player will encounter some Sheargrubs when he/she approaches the opening at the far end of the first plateau. The player will encounter more on the second plateau. The player will find the Alien Billboard in one of the three branching corridors, and the exit hole in another corridor.

Long corridor	Donut-shaped room

The second sublevel features a donut-shaped plateau that has two triangular corridors branching inward and three corridors branching outwards. The Petrified Heart and Drought Ender will either be in one of the central corridors, or in one of the outer corridors. The exit hole is located in one of the outer corridors. The player should scout the area with an army of Red Pikmin, as there are two Fiery Blowhogs patrolling the area.

This is a sample of music played on the sublevel. The other sublevels have music in a similar style.

White Pikmin room

This sublevel has no enemies, but has something even better to know about it, this sublevel is famous for where the player first finds the White Pikmin. The player should move down a long ways, where the player will come across three Ivory Candypop Buds. As a side note, if the player has 20 or more White Pikmin already, these will never appear here again, unless the player loses them in a battle, etc.

Should the player throw 5 Pikmin into the Ivory Candypop Buds, each will be transformed into White Pikmin, which are the fastest Pikmin, and they also are immune to poison, with the added ability to excavate treasures buried completely underground. After obtaining the White Pikmin, the player should go to one of two corners on a wall with a branching narrow corridor. Each has a Honeywisp, which will drop nectar after being defeated, which the player should direct their White Pikmin to.

In some rare cases, one of the Honeywisps may drop a dose of Ultra-Spicy Spray. After the White Pikmin have drank the nectar, the player should direct the White Pikmin towards the narrow corridor. The White Pikmin will almost instantly start digging up the buried Superstick Textile. After the player has obtained this, the player should enter the narrow corridor. It will lead to the exit hole.

Dead end with item	Three-way crossing	Four-way crossing	Turning corridor	Corridor	Long corridor

Room with trunk in center	Room with large trunk	Room with 5 exits

The fourth sublevel doesn't have any enemies, but it does have two Treasures and a lot of Poisonous Gas Pipes. There are two strategies the player can use here.

The player can use the White Pikmin obtained on Sublevel 3 to shut off all the Gas Pipes, then have the other Pikmin collect the Treasures.
The player can use the White Pikmin to obtain both of the treasures, while not shutting off the Gas Pipes.

If one of the treasures is up on a swirled plateau, then the player should throw the Pikmin up onto the lower section of the plateau. Then have the controlled Captain head into the alcove under the plateau and whistle to the Pikmin, guiding them to the treasure via C / Paddown.

The Toxic Toadstool will be partially buried.

Burrowing Snagret arena

See also: Burrowing Snagret strategy.

Upon entering the cave, the player should have one pilot go ahead and break the eggs on the side of the arena, while the player has the other pilot collect a squad of Purple Pikmin. On a side note, if the player has less than 20 Purple Pikmin, the player should then use Red Pikmin.

The player should use Ultra-Spicy Spray in this battle, and if the Player has any, Ultra-Bitter Spray is also advised. If you have Ultra-Spicy Spray, Spray your Pikmin when the Burrowing Snagret starts emerging from the ground. If the player has Ultra-Bitter Spray, then the player should also spray the Snagret when it firsts emerges. After this, the player should throw a steady stream of Pikmin onto the Snagret's head.

Once the Burrowing Snagret has been defeated, it will leave behind the Five-man Napsack. After obtaining this, the player can hold X / to have the controlled captain take a nap. The player, after obtaining the Five-man Napsack, should go across the arena to the exit geyser.
