    Sublevel 1: Crystallized Clairvoyance

    Sublevel 5: clear
    Sublevel 6: Only collect Stupendous Lens or Triple Sugar Threat if possible. Neither of these treasures are required, but they will
                add 120 and 60 Pokos to your total, respectively, acting as a buffer to skip potentially slow treasures later on.
    Sublevel 7: clear

> ENTER BULBLAX KINGDOM
    All runners have slightly different preferences on how exactly to do this split and their variation is negligible except at a top level. Your general route should be:
    - build the bridge in front of the globe
    - start digging Pilgrim Bulb
    - get Sunseed Berry (throw one purple on it)
    - get globe moving
    - get Healing Cask moving
    - BK napsacks
    - pluck, exchange reds with blues, nectar
                                    all while growing blue Pikmin. I suggest watching a top-level run perform this segment.

> BULBLAX KINGDOM
    Sublevel 1: clear
    Sublevel 2: clear
    Sublevel 3: skip
    Sublevel 4: clear
    Sublevel 5: skip UNLESS the treasure is so unbelievably close that it would be stupid not to get

> SUBTERRANEAN COMPLEX
    Sublevel 1: If the tape is in a very slow position, but the Nouveau Table is easily attainable, skip the tape.
                If both treasures are in awful positions, you can skip this sublevel completely if you got Stupendous Lens.
                That also means that you are unable to use your Snagret Hole 6 buffer for the rest of the run.
    Sublevel 2: clear
    Sublevel 3: All treasures unless you got SL/TST on SH6 and haven't skipped any sublevels (except BK5/a tape), instead skip 1.

    Sublevel 6: clear
