Rest sublevel

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. At Pikmin Wiki, this page was called "Rest Sublevel", which is likely different from the current title. It might make sense to rename this page.

Rest sublevel, also referred to as rest stop or rest level, is a general term used to describe sublevels in caves in Pikmin 2 that contain no or very few harmful enemies or other hazards, and large amounts of helpful items such as nectar, Ultra-Bitter- or Ultra-spicy spray, or Candypop Buds. A somewhat common exception to the "harmless enemy only" rule is Doodlebugs, two Caustic Dweevils in one case, and Bulbmin found in another. Mamutas can also be found on some, but those help the Pikmin. They can, however, hurt the Captains.

A fair proportion of rest levels contain geysers, and they are most commonly found in long and difficult caves, often before or after sublevels containing boss enemies. Such levels usually contain large amounts of flora, Unmarked Spectralid swarms, Mitites, pipes which act as tunnels, and water low enough for any Pikmin to safely walk through. These areas can be identified by a calm music.

Trivia

• There is a total of 11 rest sublevels in the game, distributed in 8 caves, making up 10.47% of all sublevels in the game.
• The only cave with three rest sublevels is the Hole of Heroes and the only one with two is the Subterranean Complex. All other caves containing any have only one.
• The only caves in the game with rest sublevels that contain treasure, is sublevel 5 of Frontier Cavern, sublevel 3 of White Flower Garden, sublevel 4 of Shower Room, and sublevel 12 of Hole of Heroes. When the Pikmin carry a treasure, the rest level's theme seems somewhat upgraded. You only hear this four times in the game.
