Thought the game was over, didn’t you? Pikmin 4 doesn’t end after you rescue Olimar. Now Oatchi is having some trouble, and you need to track down a Koppaite veterinarian. Radar scans indicate they can be found here, in the Giant’s Hearth. For the sake of your closest teammate, it’s time to get searching.

Fortunately, there aren’t as many treasures here compared to most other zones, so it shouldn’t take as long to find them all. They are a little harder to find compared to others, though. Here’s everything you’ll need to know when looking for treasure locations, from safe combos to hidden beetles.

Giant’s Hearth Surface Treasure Locations

There are 17 treasures to find here. The overall theme of this landscape is a combination of water and fire. You’ll find puddles and sprinklers as often as firepits and burnable hay. Bring plenty of Red and Blue Pikmin as you explore, and you should be able to deal with most, if not all, problems.

There’s also a Rock Pikmin onion on the south side of the map. Be careful of the Sovereign Bulblax guarding it, though.

Cradle Of The Beast Treasure Locations
