Distant Spring: Wetland frogs

When you have to build the bridge from both sides to get the part for your spaceship, you may lose a lot of Pikmin from the frog that is there. Leave your Pikmin in their "Onions" when you begin and go over to kill the frog. It will be easier and safer for your Pikmin to build their bridge.

Distant Spring: Secret monster

• On day 15, before you get any parts in the Distant Spring, take some Blue Pikmin into the water near the Onions. Eventually, you will find a round island surrounded by smaller, stick-shaped islands. This is on the lower area of your radar. The island in the center will have a large egg on it. Break the egg, and a monster that resembles a phantom frog will appear. This only works if you have not yet gotten any parts in the Distant Spring and are on day 15. You can defeat the monster with bomb rocks.
  

• On day 15, go to the Distant Spring. Before then, do not get any parts in the Distant Spring Area. Take a group of blue Pikmin and use your radar to search around for something that looks like a compass. It should be in the water to the northeast of the Onions. At the center of the little design there will be an egg. Clear all the frogs around the "compass" and clear the Puffy Blowhog next to the Onions. Go back up to the egg. Your Pikmin will want to attack the egg, but do not let them. Throw about three Pikmin at the base of it. The egg will start to rumble, then it will explode, releasing a strange creature into the level. Follow it back to the Onions. Be careful not to get Olimar or any Pikmin underneath the creature, as the Pikmin will die and Olimar will be damaged one quarter health. The creature will stop there and start following, trying to kill you. While you are battling this creature, do not look at your total number of Pikmin in your group. Instead, look at the number of Pikmin in the field. Use Blue Pikmin to defeat the monster, so that nothing bad happens to the Pikmin that fall in the water. Once it is defeated, and after the spectacular show, there will be a small seed where the creature died. Use three to six Pikmin of the color of your choice and bring it back to the Onion. The Onion will then sprout 100 of your color of Pikmin.
  

Distant Sprint: Smiley faces

When you get the Radar, go to the Distant Spring. If you look closely, you will see a bunch of smiley faces all over the map.

Impact Site: Stump enemies

There is a sub-Boss at the stump at the Impact Site, either a Mamuta or a Goolix. A Mamuta is a gray creature with no head. His only attack is to knock the Pikmin down, then pound them into the ground. When he does this, the Pikmin instantly become Flower Pikmin. A Goolix is a water creature that only Blue Pikmin can attack. Goolix has two parts, a ball and a brain-like part. Attack the ball with a lot of Blue Pikmin to damage it. If a Pikmin comes in contact with the brain-like part, all attacking Pikmin will be blasted away from Goolix.
