During this mission, the Sandbelching Meerslug's enclosure contains Bomb Rocks that aren't provided in Story mode.
If the Sandbelching Meerslug creates a pit, lock onto the creature and keep your Pikmin just out of range. Send your Pikmin charging in just as the Sandbelching Meerslug's jaws snap shut. If the Sandbelching Meerslug emerges from the sand, run in and have your Pikmin attack the creature.
No matter which attack the Sandbelching Meerslug uses, a successful counterattack will temporarily incapacitate the creature. Use this time to switch crew members and begin gathering the Bomb Rocks located along the ledge surrounding the enclosure.
Time Limit: 13:00
Available Pikmin: Red Pikmin, Rock Pikmin, Yellow Pikmin
