A set of five treasures found in Pikmin 2 (#197-#201). Unlike most treasures, they are actively used in the game itself, though not by Olimar.
Shock Therapist[edit]
- The Shock Therapist is one of four treasures that falls off the Titan Dweevil found in the Dream Den after it is killed. The Titan Dweevil had previously used it to launch electrified anodes around its room, electrocuting anything caught between the arcs. It requires 30 Pikmin to carry, and is worth 1,000 Pokos.
- Olimar's Notes: This shocker was one of several weapons wielded by the nightmarish titan dweevil. It allowed the creature to smite Pikmin with zaps of lightning!
- The Ship's Ad: This nanotech device gathers negative ions in the atmosphere and converts them into energy. It then releases that energy. Zap! Use it to relieve muscle soreness and joint stress. One warning, however: it does render the user unconscious.
Flare Cannon[edit]
- The Flare Cannon is one of four treasures that falls off the Titan Dweevil found in the Dream Den after it is killed. The Titan Dweevil had previously used it to release jets of flame, rotating itself to create a near impenetrable circle of fire. It requires 30 Pikmin to carry, and is worth 1,000 Pokos.
- Olimar's Notes: This scorching mechanism was once used by a monstrous titan dweevil. The roasting apparatus spews hot jets of flame! I can't keep Louie away from it... He keeps trying to use it to cook sausages and caramelize creme brulee.
- The Ship's Ad: In the compressed-air cylinder of this flamethrower, liquid gas is lit, producing the fire that gives the weapon its name. It is very dangerous, and good kids know not to play with it. In case you wonder, it cannot be used as a substitute for a spaceship's rockets and should never be used to cook sausages. Never.
Comedy Bomb[edit]
- The Comedy Bomb is one of four treasures that falls off the Titan Dweevil found in the Dream Den after it is killed. The Titan Dweevil had previously used it to surround itself with clouds of poisonous gas. It requires 30 Pikmin to carry, and is worth 1,000 Pokos.
- Olimar's Notes: This fiendish component was used by the titan dweevil! Although it was once a primitive chemical weapon, it is now a weapon of mass hilarity.
- The Ship's Ad: You cannot see it. You cannot smell it. Yet this weapon would steal your life, given the chance. At least it USED to, until I shrewdly exchanged its poison gas for hilarious laughing gas. Crafted with an eye for safety, it is the funniest weapon ever devised!
Monster Pump[edit]
- The Monster Pump is one of four treasures that falls off the Titan Dweevil found in the Dream Den after it is killed. The Titan Dweevil had previously used it to launch massive drops of water around its cave. It requires 30 Pikmin to carry, and is worth 1,000 Pokos.
- Olimar's Notes: This savage water pump was just one of many weapons wielded by the titan dweevil. This pump is capable of spraying jets of hyper-pressurized water!
- The Ship's Ad: This item automatically detects subterranean waterways, even if the water is buried a mile deep! This monster pump draws liquid any distance, and its almost-uncontrollable power is fantastic!
King of Bugs[edit]
- The King of Bugs is, of course, Louie. After being left behind by Olimar, he found his way to the bottom of the Dream Den and took control of the Titan Dweevil's mind, potentially becoming the true final boss. After the Titan Dweevil is killed, he can be carried by one Pikmin and is worth 10 Pokos.
- Olimar's Notes: Louie is back! Somehow, he survived a horrific ordeal with a freakishly large, weapon-wielding titan dweevil! I entered a hole with an army of ferocious Pikmin, grimly determined to save Louie from the titan dweevil, but it seems that he was perfectly fine all along. I can't understand how he managed to avoid being eaten. Hmmm... He's always had an unusually close connection with insects, and I know he loves to cook them! May he wasn't kidnapped after all... Could he have been controlling that beast all along?! No...that's craziness! Although...he does insist now that we address him by his "proper title," the King of Bugs.
- The Ship's Ad: A new employee of Hocotate Freight, Louie is often silent. Nobody knows what thoughts lurk in his mind. He appears to operate on the same wavelength as insects, often with dangerous results. After he was kidnapped, he somehow managed to hijack a colossal insect's brain!
