TICKLISH TEMPLES [0306]

Run through the bush to find some Lums, then take down the trio of Lividstones.

Fly over to the blue bouncy flower and ground pound it to reach a horizontal vine near the top of the screen.

Hoist yourself into the alcove and open the door.

~~ HIDDEN ROOM ~~ A hole in the wall deploys missiles periodically, which slowly fly to the left. They can be used to kill enemies and also serve as makeshift platforms. They remind you of Bullet Bills in that regard. Swim through the pool and destroy the two red bulbs to send two Lividstones into the line of fire. Defeat the third one, then hitch a ride on the missiles to the last two enemies and the [HIDDEN CAGE] in the corner.

Drop down and wall jump to the next ledge.

Grab the Heart from inside the bushy plant and slide under the Spiked Eye.

Punch the green bulb to send the Lividstones into the pond, then wallrun up the slope to the right for a [SKULL COIN].

Hop in the water yourself, collect all the Lums, and head to the next area.

Dive into the water in order to avoid the Hunter's red homing missiles.

Shake down the bush to find a bubble containing a blue fish. With these guys tagging along, attack underwater or on land to throw a fish forward. These fish can instantly kill any opponent, and you have a good five or six of them to throw.

You have a good opportunity at the "Back At You!" achievement in this room. Swim underwater and wall jump behind the Hunter. As he fires his homing missiles at you, they eventually double back around you. As they spin in a circle and fly right towards you, jump over the Hunter and he'll get hit with his own missile, giving you the achievement.

Crush through the wooden floorboard and bubblize the three Lividstones.

In order to reach the [SKULL COIN] near the ceiling, wait for the bubblized enemies to float in the air a bit before using them as stepping stones.

Jump into the next pool of water and grab all the Lums (activate the hidden Lum King first!), including the Bulb-o-Lums.

Hop across the moving missile staircase to the exit.

Use the green islands to get across the chasm, but keep the green bulb in tact so you can make your way up to the [SKULL COIN] in the corner.

Watch out for the Hunters and their pesky missiles as you go across the platforms to the other side.

If you ground pound the wooden panel on the floor, you'll be able to access the second hidden room.

~~ HIDDEN ROOM ~~ Run and glide over the [HIDDEN CAGE] and the Spiked Eyes. Drop down in the opening and chain-bubblize the Lividstones right into the blue bulb, solving all your troubles. Now you can open up the cage and reunite with the Electoons.

Run to the right and jump onto the bouncy blue flower; make sure to ground pound to gain enough height to reach the [SKULL COIN], then wall jump right back to where you were.

Jump along the spiked blue platforms (and pick up the Heart below if you feel inclined to do so) and over to the doorway.

You'll have to be quick in this next area if you want to collect the heaping helping of Lums. Most of the ground collapses as soon as you run across, so keep on moving and ignore all the enemies. If you are fast enough, you should get most of the Lums as well as the [SKULL COIN] before the Cage Challenge.

As for the Cage Challenge, take down the Lividstone and wallrun up the ramp to the Hunter. Knock him out and the [HIDDEN CAGE] is all yours.

Jump up the first set of green islands and punch the bulb on the ceiling to continue across the chasm.

After getting across, smash the wooden gate and ground pound the bouncy blue flower to reach an island with a Heart flask.

Walk across the moving platforms and grab the [SKULL COIN] as you fall down onto the main path.

Comb the area for Lums hiding in bushes and on the island.

Break down the wooden gate into the cavern and perform a super bounce to reach an alcove containing another [SKULL COIN].

Enter the door.

Punch the green bulb and use the bouncy flowers ahead.

Hop on the bouncy flower above the doorway to launch towards a wall, then wall jump over the Spiked Eyes and secure the [SKULL COIN].

Proceed.

There is another opening in the ceiling and a bouncy flower, so perform a ground pound bounce and scale the wall to uncover a hidden door.

~~ HIDDEN ROOM ~~ There are four Lividstones each standing in a makeshift wooden structure.
