Black Sprout Garden

Black Sprout Garden is the last cave dungeon in the Fearful Forest. This cave contains many plant enemies and bug enemies, hence the name. It also contains Black Pikmin that will help you a long way against a new hazard: slime. This hazard can create a sticky situation to your Pikmin if your not careful. This dungeon contains 7 Sublevels and 11 treasures. It also has electricity, water, slime and dirt hazards.

Sublevel 1
This level contains a lot of vines and many tree hollows that you can climb up to. Those hollows lead to tree houses that you can explore. Down below the trees lies 2 rooms full of vegetation and dirt clods that hide some of the plants that grow there. Up in the trees the tree houses connect to each other and spread across the whole floor. You could plan well up there and leave Pikmin to attract some of the wandering enemies below. They will get stuck trying to eat them. There are 3 treasure here with 1 being in one of the tree houses.

Sublevel 3
This is the first Sublevel that introduces slime as a hazard. There are a few slime puddles and slime webs in the area. But not to worry because there are Black Pikmin in the area as well. Call them to you and have them take out the webs, after that you can get the single treasure in the pool of slime. But watch out for the roaming Snotix in the area as well.

Sublevel 4
This Sublevel is a bit swampy, but not too swampy. There is a main room and 2 branching rooms with algae and other vegetation in them. Be warned of dirt hazards that conceal enemies and traps. Also be warned of the slime and fire hazards in the vegetation rooms. If your not careful, you can be in some deep trouble.

Sublevel 7
The final floor. Walk through the tunnel ahead into a big arena with many branching rooms ahead. What's recommended is that you break down the gates leading to each room before engaging the boss. Once you have broken the gates and cleared the way, head in the middle and the boss will appear out of the sandy floor. It is a Tunneling Snagret, a new boss found deep in the soil. It attacks fast so you should wait until it gets stuck in the ground like other Snagret species. Once it gets stuck you can plow it with Purple Pikmin and deal massive damage to it. After you repeat the strategy several times the boss should be defeated and you can get your reward. The treasure you get is called the spoil pouch. It allows you to carry items such as nectar or eggs or even 3 small dead bodies of enemies.
