The Insect Cavern is the most involved dungeon yet. Just like the Wind and Earth temples in The Wind Waker, its complexity comes from the events that take place within it.
The three mini-bosses are among these events, but the reappearance of Teddy Todo is the big one.
The bodyguard from the first dungeon, Todo's working for the pirates and scouting the dungeon for treasure. His appearances are mostly informative until the dungeon's end, when he asks for the "Chrysalis." This item alone is what makes the Insect Cavern a challenge.
You don't find the "Chrysalis" after any miniboss battle, nor are there any clues to its whereabouts. You just have to explore every inch of dungeon. Thankfully, it's in a chest and not just loose, but without a traditional Legend of Zelda compass, chests don't show up on your map. Needless to say, there's a fair bit of backtracking.
Though, working your way through the dungeon for a second time is a great chance to change bodyguards and get a rupee good you'd otherwise miss. It might be a pain, but at least the game's efficiently designed.
