Sand Lands

PS undefined

The Sand Lands is the second cave in Altitude Springs. As the name implies, the cave is very sandy, and has remnants of a metal structure, with metallic walls and big metal pillars. Some sublevels are positioned over a bottomless void, which your Pikmin can fall into and die. The cave is inaccessable until you get Yellow Pikmin.

Sublevels
The Sand Lands has 5 sublevels.

Sublevel 1
This one is pretty easy, with the only enemies being Fiery Dweevils. There are three treasures, one is buried so you'll need White Pikmin to get it. The main gimmick of this sublevel is simple. Horizontal fire geysers, attached to the walls, will shoot...horizontally. Only Red Pikmin can deactivate them.

Enemies

 * Fiery Dweevil x4

Sublevel 2
This one's small, but a bit harder, introducing electricity as a hazard. It kills your Pikmin instantly! Well, except for Yellow Pikmin. There are two treasures, both are buried within the ground slightly. Watch out for the hopping Wollywogs, because they'll smash your Pikmin flat.

Enemies

 * Dwarf Yellow Bulborb x7
 * Yellow Wollywog x2

Sublevel 3
This sublevel floats over a deadly void, so be careful when throwing your Pikmin. Again, more fire and electricity, though this time you find a Dweevil that wields the yellow death as its elemental power. Watch out for the explosive throwing Dirigibugs and the Wollywogs, too. This sublevel has one treasure, located on a high ledge.

Enemies

 * Yellow Wollywog x4
 * Careening Dirigibug x2
 * Anode Dweevil x4

Sublevel 4
The penultimate sublevel also floats over a void, and has a fairly simple layout like the previous sublevel. Just get the two treasures and go to the next sublevel, while fighting the Dirigibugs and Dweevils. A Burrow-nit has swallowed one of the treasures, too, so kill it and reap the rewards.

Enemies

 * Dwarf Yellow Bulborb x5
 * Fiery Dweevil x2
 * Anode Dweevil x2
 * Careening Dirigibug x4
 * Cloaking Burrow-nit x1 CONTAINS TREASURE

Sublevel 5
A simple boss sublevel. Starting in a safe alcove, you will notice a large quicksand pit in the middle of the room. Approach it, and a giant burrowing insect will emerge from the center, emitting a deafening roar that causes rocks and explosives to fall from the ceiling.

Enemies

 * Boss - Burrowing Sand-nit

Wildlife

 * Dwarf Yellow Bulborb
 * Yellow Wollywog
 * Anode Dweevil
 * Fiery Dweevil
 * Careening Dirigibug
 * Cloaking Burrow-nit
 * Boss - Burrowing Sand-nit
