Collect Treasure - Stage #14: Forgotten Cove
Pikmin available: Red / Yellow / Blue

A blast from the past. This stage features the same layout from the good old Forest Navel from the first Pikmin, complete with the original trio of colors to help you.

In this stage, you may feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of things you can do. There're gates to destroy, paths to build, enemies to kill and a big long legs, waiting for you in the same location as the original game.

If you want a third captain, you'll have to rescue Louie from one of the jellyfish.

Be especially careful of the lake area. The high density of enemies could be dangerous, so use a bomb rock or two if you feel you must. I picked up all the blues and went to clear it first, as it usually gives me trouble when I leave it for last.

Overall very fun stage. Enjoy it even if it feels like you will never be able to clear it.

Next up, hell made a stage.
