****************
* 4. The Story * (taken from the instruction manual, word for word)
****************

My name is Captain Olimar. On my homeworld of Hocotate, I am a well known 
navigator of the stars. I use my faithful ship, the Dolphin, to carry small
freight and minerals from planet to planet. It is a job of no small 
importance, and I take it seriously.

For a long time I had been working too hard, a tendency of mine, so I decided
to take some time off by myself to recuperate. The night before I left, my
wife prepared my favorite soup. This soup is a famous dish on my planet, made
with three large onions and hundreds of miniature red, yellow, and blue 
carrots. Once I had my fill of this delicious dinner, I climbed into my warm
bed and began to think of the leisurely vacation that would start the next
morning. I finally fell into a deep, peaceful sleep.

The journey began well. With no set destination in mind, I simply allowed the
sleek Dolphin of mine to make its own efficient way through the vast reaches
of space. A strange feeling came over me... I then felt a premonition that my
short trip would soon become an epic adventure. I dismissed the thought as 
foolishness from my overactive brain, then switched the Dolphin to autopilot
and stood up from the control seat to make a hot cup of tea. Just then, a
massive jolt shook the Dolphin! For a brief moment, my mind reeled with the
possibilities of what might have happened, but I had little time to react.
I was thrown against the control panel, and I blacked out.

When I came to, I found that the Dolphin had crashed on a strange planet, in
a place whose name and location I could not guess. I thanked the laws of 
chaos that I was at least, for the time, safe. After some inspection, I
noticed that the Dolphin was so shaken during reentry that several of her
pieces had been jarred loose, probably scattered around the planet. To make
matters worse, my sensors indicated that the planet's atmosphere contained
oxygen, an element incredibly deadly to my people. Fortunately, the
life-support system built into my suit seemed unharmed, but I knew that it
had only enough remaining battery power to function for another 30 days. If
only I could find the engine, then at least I could fly within this planet's
atmosphere to search for the other parts...

Will I be able to find the missing parts from my spaceship? Will I be able
to return safely to my home and family? I must steel myself against fear and
loneliness if I am ever to see them again.

I have decided to record my observations and experiences in my journal until 
I am able to leave this forbidding planet. My only hope lies in the promise 
of two strange encounters I had today. The first was the discovery of a large
object, similar to the onions on my planet. But it was enormous, and it
rested on three legs. The other was the appearance of a small life-form
eerily similar to my planet's miniature carrots. I have decided to name this
small life-form...Pikmin...

Walk straight from the starting point to the red Onion. Approach it. It 
comes out of the ground and lets out a single seed.

*************************************************
* Olimar's Journal                              *
*                                               *
* A strange thing has appeared before me. I had *
* barely begun my search when it reared up as   *
* if it were waiting for me. It then dropped a  *
* single seed. What is it? Is it alive? Is it a *
* machine? It resembles a vegetable on my home  *
* planet that we call an onion. I shall call    *
* this an Onion too.                            *
*                                               *
*************************************************

Wait around the Onion for about 10 seconds. The seed will sprout. 
Approach it.

*************************************************
* Olimar's Journal                              *
*                                               *
* The seed that the Onion dropped took root in  *
* soil and has now produced an adorable little  *
* sprout. This sprout emits a strange light,    *
* and it sways back and forth without the       *
* benefit of the wind. I cannot help but think  *
* it is calling to me. I am compelled- I must   *
* approach it and press A...                    *
*                                               *
*************************************************

Approach the sprout and press A as Olimar instructed. A Red Pikmin will come
out of the ground.

*************************************************
* Olimar's Journal                              *
*                                               *
* Extraordinary! When I plucked the sprout, it  *
* turned out to be a living creature, not a     *
* plant. Picking it has done no visible         *
* damage... It just stands there, staring at    *
* me. Its shape is similar to the Pikpik brand  *
* carrots I love so much... I believe I shall   *
* call it a Pikmin.                             *
*                                               *
* Here I am, stranded on a toxic planet,        *
* fighting to survive, and yet I'm intrigued... *
* I must research this fascinating creature!    *
*                                               *
*************************************************

Throw the Pikmin at one of the flowers by the Onion. It will knock the flower
down and come back to you. Throw it at the pellet from the flower. The Pikmin
will take it to the Onion. The Onion will suck in the pellet and spit out 
two more seeds.

*************************************************
* Olimar's Journal                              *
*                                               *
* Astonishing! The Onion has sown more seeds!   *
* The small red pellet the Pikmin harvested     *
* after cutting down a flower appears to be     *
* some kind of food that can propagate more     *
* Pikmin. The Onion seems to be some sort of    *
* incubator... Needless to say, I must study    *
* this strange life-form more.                  *
*                                               *
*************************************************

Repeat the process with the other flower. Next, pluck the four seeds. Approach
one and repeatedly press A. Olimar will harvest all four seeds this way.
Take your 5 Pikmin behind you to the pellet with a "5". Throw them on to it
and they will carry it back to the Onion which will produce 5 more Pikmin.
Grab the other red pellet for two more Pikmin. Next, go up to the ship and
turn left. Go up the hill and grab the pellet. Bring it back to the Onion.
You should have 14 Pikmin now.

Take your Pikmin to the box with a "10" on it and hold the C-stick towards
it. The Pikmin will push it out of the way.

*************************************************
* Olimar's Journal                              *
*                                               *
* The Pikmin are as curious as children! They   *
* form groups to perform tasks that would be    *
* impossible for an individual. A glimmer of    *
* hope has began to swell in my heart- if I can *
* make use of their skills, perhaps I can fix   * 
* my ship!                                      *
*                                               *
*************************************************

Approach the first ship part- the Engine.

*************************************************
* Olimar's Journal                              *
*                                               *
* Amazing! There's no mistaking it! My ship's   *
* engine rests before my very eyes! By a stroke *
* of pure luck, I have already stumbled upon    *
* the most important piece of my damaged craft! *
* Fate has smiled upon me! But... How will I    *
* get it back to the Dolphin?                   *
*                                               *

*************************

Right now you don't have 20 Pikmin, so head up the ramp your Pikmin made when
they pushed the box. Throw two Pikmin up on the ledge to get a pellet. Next,
throw two Pikmin on each of the other small pellets. Put the remaining 8 
Pikmin on the "5". Follow them back to the Onion and harvest the sprouts.

*************************************************
* Olimar's Journal                              *
*                                               *
* When many Pikmin seeds sprout at once, I find *
* it rather tedious to pluck them from the      *
* ground individually. My wife always told me I *
* was no good at routine tasks! I guess I'll    *
* try to get it done all at once by repeatedly  *
* tapping A until I pick all the Pikmin from    *
* the ground.                                   *
*                                               *
* I've noticed that when I add Pikmin to my     *
* group, they become flushed with excitement    *
* and bright color. At other times, they revert *
* to a paler hue and give off a dim glow.       *
* Paying close attention to these differences   *
* is bound to help me distinguish between       *
* Pikmin.                                       *
*                                               *
*************************************************

Take your Pikmin back to the Engine and direct them on to it with the C-stick.
They will carry it to the ship.

*************************************************
* Olimar's Journal                              *
*                                               *
* Oh, glorius! With the help of these Pikmin, I *
* have taken a huge step back towards home. My  *
* ship can once again lift off! The glimmer of  *
* hope is beginning to burn more brightly...    *
* But what has become of the remaining parts?   *
* That search... starts tomorrow.               *
*                                               *
*************************************************

After you collect the Engine, the day ends.

*************************************************
* 1 Day Since Impact                            *
*                                               *
* I have somehow managed to launch the Dolphin, *
* but I was surprised to see the Onion lift off *
* with me. Perhaps the Pikmin cannot survive    *
* overnight on the planet's surface. Or have    *
* they merely decided to join me for other      *
* reasons? Either way, it seems they will help  *
* me again tomorrow.                            *
*                                               *
* The Dolphin is missing 29 parts. If I can't   *
* recover them all, I may never return to my    *
* family on Planet Hocotate. Analysis shows     *
* life-support systems will function for only   *
* 29 more days. How can I repair the Dolphin in *
* such a short time? A dense forest is visible  *
* on the surface below. As it holds the keys to *
* my survival, I name it The Forest of Hope. I  *
* explore it tomorrow.                          *

*************************************************

Call out your 25 Pikmin. Put 24 on the wall and use the last one to harvest
the red pellets. Collect the red ones but leave the yellow flowers alone, as
they are for the yellow Pikmin. Put the last Pikmin on the wall. Harvest the
sprouts and put them on the wall as well. When the wall is down, go outside.
You will encounter the first enemy, the Dwarf Bulborb. 

************************

************************ 

When the Dwarf Bulborbs are dead, take their bodies back along with the five
red pellets. There is also a "5" on the ledge above the flowers. Harvest the
Pikmin, then go back out, turning right this time. Kill the two Bulborbs.
Ignore the "10" but take back the bulborbs, making sure you still have at
least 40 Pikmin with you. Approach the second Ship Part.

Put your Pikmin on the Eternal Fuel Dynamo and return to the Onion. Once the
seeds from the Bulborbs sprout, pluck them. The part should now be approaching
the ship.

*                                               *
*************************************************

Take your Pikmin back to the ledge where the "5" sat. Throw ALL of your
Pikmin on to the ledge. Go in the water to your left and climb up the large
root (make sure you have no Pikmin with you). Go around the tree and get
them. Direct them around to the monster's back with the C-stick, making
sure no Pikmin wake it by attacking.

be about noon...

* My clock has indicated the coming of noon.    *
* From now on, I must pay close attention to    *
* the Sun Meter on my monitor and choose my     *

*************************************************

There is a visible part down the ledge after you climb the root but DO NOT, I
repeat, DO NOT go down there because there's a wall preventing escape and you
won't be able to destroy it because you have no Pikmin with you. Instead, go
back to the Onion and wait for the Shock Absorber to come in.

Pluck the seeds and round up your Pikmin. Put enough Pikmin away so that you
have 50 with you. Exit to the right and take the "10" home. Attack the
Spotty Bulborb and take back it's body. Put the remaining Pikmin on the wall.
Go fetch the rest of your Pikmin from the Onion and put them on the wall.
When the wall is done, kill the Spotty and Dwarf Bulborbs and put all your
Pikmin away. Approach the yellow Onion. It pops up and lets out a seed. Pluck
the seed.

* The color is different, but it seems to be a  *
* Pikmin nonetheless. First glance suggests     *
* this one has what, in some circles, could be  *
* considered very large ears. It looks like it  *
* may weigh less than the others... In what     *
* other ways might it be different from the red *
* Pikmin? No matter. They are obviously quite   *

* sunset. Pikmin waiting beneath the Dolphin    *
* and Onions will problably enter the Onions on *
* their own, but if I don't call the stragglers *
* and add them to my group, they may not be     *
* able to get back. I am sure that the Pikmin   *

Get your group together and try to stick in some last minute work with the
yellow Pikmin.

Land in The Forest of Hope.

Take out all your yellow Pikmin and grab the pellet from the flower. If you
left any Pikmin in the ground, pluck them now. Next, take out enough red 
Pikmin so you have at least 50. Take your Pikmin to where the first part was.
Separate your Pikmin and call over the yellow ones. Take them inside the
large can sticking out of the ground. Use the C-stick once you're inside.
Your Pikmin should pick up the bomb-rocks.

*************************************************

*                                               *
* The yellow Pikmin have picked up some         *
* peculiar stones. Why did they decide to grab  *
* them? The action seems instinctive to the     *
* yellow Pikmin. But just what are these        *
* strange glowing stones? Brightly glowing      *
* cracks cover them. Perhaps these cracks       *
* indicate that there's tremendous power locked *
* away within. This merits further research.    *
*                                               *
*************************************************

Take the bombs to where the yellow Onion was. Grab the bombs there and
continue on. Grab the bombs in front of the wall, then make sure all the
Pikmin are clear. Throw three bomb-rock wielding Pikmin at the wall. The
Pikmin will drop the bombs on the wall and return to you. Stay clear of the
wall when the bombs explode, as they will kill any Pikmin within range.

* The glowing rocks the yellow Pikmin picked up *
* seem to be explosive stones! Perhaps they     *
* know these stones can be used as powerful     *
* weapons. The bomb-rocks are dangerous, so I   *
* must take care when using them, but they      *
* should be able to blast open the stone walls  *
* that block the pathways! I may even be able   *
* to use them against some of the wild          *
* creatures.                                    *
*                                               *
* I must be vigilant. Pikmin I dismiss by       *
* pressing X bring their bombs when I call them *
* back. Pikmin I throw by pressing A drop their *
* bombs when I call them back. (Keep clear of   *
* the explosion!) When I touch Pikmin directly, *
* they keep their bombs and fall in line.       *
*                                               *
*************************************************

Go back to the ship and bomb the wall that's next to it. Now get your red
Pikmin that were left in the field and take them to the wall that had bombs
in front of it. Engage in battle with the Bulborbs. You should encounter two
new creatures.

Pluck all of your Pikmin and take the red ones and put them on the wall.
Next, take your yellow Pikmin and blow up the dark grey wall. If you don't
have 9 bombs, you can't get the part yet. Put your yellow Pikmin on the wall
with the red ones and wait. When the wall is done, kill the Bulborbs and
approach the next part.

Land in the new area, The Forest Navel.

Take out 50 red Pikmin and set them to work on the wall next to their Onion.
Next, go around the wall and stay to the left until you reach the last puddle.
Go in and find the blue Onion. It drops a seed. Pluck the seed when it 
sprouts.

come.

************************

Leave out one pellet and wait. When the Breadbug comes, he will grab it. Put 
enough Pikmin on the pellet to overpower him. (if you're using a "1" which I
suggest, you need to use 2 Pikmin) When the Onion sucks in the pellet, the 
Breadbug will hit the bottom of the Onion and sustain severe damage. To  
finish it off, throw a Pikmin on top of him. Try to wait until he's on land
before you deliver the final blow. This way, the part he drops can be carried
away by the red Pikmin.

************************

You can just avoid the Blowhogs, as they can't harm red Pikmin. Go towards
the water.  Be careful though, as the fire will damage you. Go along the 
water between the blue flower and the cliff. This is to the right of where
you entered. Follow the path and destroy the wall. When the wall is down,
continue down the path, avoiding the fire. Start building the bridge on the
left of the path. When the countdown reaches 2, call your Pikmin off and
wait.

Land in The Impact Site.

Take out all of your yellow and blue Pikmin. Separate your Pikmin and take
the yellow ones to the opening on the other side of the box. You may 
encounter a new creature.

Throw the bomb-rocks into the clam. One bomb-rock will take away about 1/2
the clam's health. When the clam is dead, it will drop its pearl. Take the
pearl back for 50 Pikmin. Now fetch the blue Pikmin and kill the clam with
the part (the one by the blue "20") When the clam dies, it will drop the 
part.

Land in the Forest Navel.

Take out 25 yellow, 25 blue, and 50 red Pikmin. Take them to the bridge you
almost finished at the end of Day 4. Avoid the fire by squeezing along the
edge. Finish the bridge, then go back to the start of the bridge and dismiss
your Pikmin. Take the blue Pikmin and activate the sprout. Dismiss the blues
and bring over the yellows. Throw them up on the ledge and go up using the
spout. Call the yellow Pikmin and throw them up to the Libra.

Once the Libra reaches the ground, take the yellow Pikmin off and put on 25

Land in The Forest Navel.

Take out 50 blue and 50 red Pikmin. Go just past the place where the Gravity
Jumper was. Separate your Pikmin and take the red ones. Take them down a few
ledges to your left. In the center of the arena waits the Puffstool.

*******************************
* Mini Boss Battle: Puffstool *
*******************************

Throw a few Pikmin at it. They will give chase. The Puffstool will eventually
flip over. As quickly as possible, hurl Pikmin at it. It will flip back and
start to squeeze tightly. When it does this, you must immediately get your
Pikmin out from under it. It will launch a plume of poisonous gas from under
its top. Any Pikmin that get hit will turn into purple Pikmin with mushroom
heads that chase and attack Olimar. To turn them back, throw normal Pikmin at
them. Repeat the process until he falls. (Try to avoid the poison. Those 
purple Pikmin can be a real pain in the ass.) When the Puffstool dies, it 
drops the Omega Stabilizer.

Assuming you didn't lose more than 10 Pikmin, put them on and have them bring
it to shore. Once on shore, take them off and go back to the Onions. Put them
away and put the red Pikmin on the part. If you lost more than 10 Pikmin, go
get the amount of blue Pikmin you need and bring thr red Pikmin. On the way
to the Onion, the Omega Stabilizer should make it to the ship.

Use blue Pikmin to bring the part to shore and when it gets there, take the
blue Pikmin off and replace them with reds. Let the reds take the part to the
ship, while you take the blue Pikmin back to the Onion. After you put the
blue Pikmin away, you can wait for the red Pikmin with the Anti-Dioxin Filter.

Take your Pikmin to the wall near the last part. Put them on it. When they're
done, take them to the place where the Gravity Jumper was and build the

Take out 15 yellow Pikmin. Take them to the place where the Gravity Jumper
was. Grab all of the bombs. You should have 15. You cannot lose ANY of your
bombs along the way. First, bomb the wall blocking the last part. Next,
destroy the wall to the left. Take out 15 more yellow Pikmin and go back to

*******************************************

You should already know this strategy, but I'll repeat it.

Approach the Cannon Beetle. When he turns and starts to charge up his rock
blast, throw a Pikmin into the hole above his eye. This opens his wings. 
Throw Pikmin onto his back as quickly as possible. When he closes his wings,
the Pikmin will fall off. Repeat this process a few times until he dies. He
will drop a part.

Go out the other opening in the "arena" and build the bridge. When the bridge
is done, take down the wall. Put 30-40 Pikmin on the Bowsprit. Go down the
bridge and to the left before you pass the wall. Kill the Shearwigs and enter
the big stump. There is a part inside.

When the Shearwigs are dead, put your Pikmin back on the Pilot's Seat and go
home. Take out 15 yellow Pikmin and take themto where you killed the 2ND
Spotty Bulbear. Take them up the skinny ledge. Follow the maze to the next
part. The Pilot's Seat should be coming in.

Take your blue Pikmin to the unexplored lake at the far end of the area. Kill

Land in The Forest of Hope.

Take out 100 blue Pikmin. Take them to the place where the yellow Onion was.
Go through the opening into the unexplored area. Avoid the Spotty Bulborbs.
Go in the water on either side of the box and throw your Pikmin on its front.
When the box is moved, go across the land bridge. 

***************************************
* Mini Boss Battle: Burrowing Snagret *
***************************************

Avoid the first two Snagrets and only battle the last one. Make sure you get
as many Pikmin as possible on its head, for that is its weak spot. If it has
trouble coming up, swarm its head for quick kill if done correctly. When he
dies, he'll drop a part.

of going back through Snagret territory. You can expand your Pikmin

Land in The Distant Spring.

Take out 50 blue Pikmin and head near the place where the #2 Ionium Jet was.
Throw at least 25 Pikmin onto the ledge with the yellow Candypop Bud. Go up
using the jet. Throw at least 25 Pikmin into the Candypop Bud. (It will only
take 10 at a time.) Pluck the yellow seeds and throw them onto the beach, then
onto the part.

Land in The Final Trial.

Take out 50 blue Pikmin and put them on the bridge closest to the Onions.
Take out 3 yellows and go to the right. Throw your Pikmin from island to
island. Pick up the bombs and take them to the shore. Remember, if you throw
your Pikmin when they have bombs, the only way you can get them back without
losing the bombs is to rub against them. Bomb the wall across the bridge that
the blues built. When the wall is down, put the blues and yellows on the next
bridge. Now take out 15 reds. Take them to the left and throw them into the
pipe full of fire spouts. Go into the water next to the pipe and call them.
Direct them to the end of the pipe and make them push the box out of the way.
When the blues and yellows are done with the bridge, put them away and take
out 85 more reds. Take down the wall and enter the arena.

********************************
* Boss Battle: Emperor Bulblax *
********************************

Take about 20 red Pikmin in at a time and throw them onto the side of his
mouth. Avoid his swinging tongue. He will jump up and down to get them off.
Repeat the process until he is defeated. When he has about 1/3 health left,  
he will start jumping up and down trying to smash your Pikmin. Walk around 
to avoid him. When he lands, continue to throw Pikmin onto the side of his     
face. It might take a while, but he will eventually fall. When he dies, he
will drop the final part.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I received a tip from a reader on beating the Emperor Bulblax.

"In the end, when you fight Emperor Bulblax, if you take your Pikmin 
around the edge, you will find a wall directly opposite to the one you have to 
break down to get into the arena. If you break this down, then there will be 
bomb rocks. Right before Emperor Bulblax uses is tongue attack, it will suck 
in and if you throw a bomb rock in, he becomes stunned for a few seconds. (I 
don't think it does any damage to him, just stuns him). In the time he is 
stunned, you have an easy shot in attacking him with any colored pikmin."

* 7. Part List *  
****************

Here is a list of all the parts in the game. They are sorted by area, so they
are somewhat mixed up.


===================
  The Impact Site 
===================

 -------------
|  1. Engine  |
 -------------

Day 1

Weight- 20

Necessary- Yes

Description- Amazing! There's no mistaking it! My
ship's engine rests before my very eyes! By a
stroke of pure luck, I have already stumbled upon
the most important piece of my damaged craft!
Fate has smiled upon me! But... how will I get it
back to the Dolphin?

Oh, glorius! With the help of these Pikmin, I've
taken a huge step back toward home. My ship can
once again lift off!

 -------------------------
|  9. Positron Generator  |
 -------------------------

Day 5

Weight- 20

Necessary- Yes

Description- By combining batteries with solar
cells, this machine can generate incredible
amounts of electricity. What a timely find!
Those Instant Space Noodles will taste better
heated up.

This electric generator is so powerful that if you
approach it carelessly, you'll get an electric
shock!



======================
  The Forest of Hope
======================

 --------------------------
|  2. Eternal Fuel Dynamo  |
 --------------------------                   

Day 2

Weight- 40

Necessary- Yes

Description- It has an unlimited energy supply! I
won't have to worry about saving electricty 
anymore! This will make my fight for survival a
bit easier...

This should light things up. No more candles for
me!

 ---------------------
|  3. Shock Absorber  |
 ---------------------

Day 2

Weight- 30

Necessary- Yes

Description- This apparatus counteracts the
shaking and swaying that normally occurs during
flight. It's smooth sailing with this in place...
Usually.

This nifty little device counteracts the shaking
and swaying experienced in typical space flight.

 ----------------------
|  4. Whimsical Radar  |
 ----------------------

Day 3

Weight- 20

Necessary- Yes

Description- With this, I'll be able to see all
nearby ship parts in a single glance- I just
press Y to check it. This find fills me with
great hope. 

This important part can detect the location of
other missing parts. The radar will be added to
my monitor, which I can press Y to view. The
C-stick zooms in and out. This will surely help
me in my search for the remaining parts.

 -------------------
|  5. Nova Blaster  |
 -------------------

Day 3

Weight- 30

Necessary- No

Description- This emits a dazzling burst of light
capable of destroying almost anything! I'm not
exactly sure about this, but the promotional
brochure claims that its blasts can travel in the
currents of space-time, smashing through stars 
and into the rifts of space.

This is weapon of such incredible destructive
force that it can blast stars into tiny pieces...
It has a strange allure.

 --------------------------
|  13. Extraordinary Bolt  |
 --------------------------

Day 7

Weight- 30

Necessary- Yes

Description- I bought this incredible bolt because
the salesman told me it is of extraordinary
quality that is indiscernable to the average
person. Exactly what makes it so extraordinary is
a secret. But just look at it! Extraordinary!

This bolt holds the kind of value that only a true
connoiseur can understand.

 ------------------------
|  14. Radiation Canopy  |
 ------------------------

Day 7

Weight- 30

Necessary- Yes

Description- this turns the harsh radiation of deep
space into soft infrared rays that are easy on the
body. I'll sleep like a baby when I get this back 
to the ship.

I'll have to inspect it later to make sure it
hasn't cracked. I'll be in even more trouble if I
have any radiation leaks.

 -------------------
|  15. Sagittarius  | 
 -------------------

Day 7

Weight- 20

Necessary- Yes

Description- My son gave this to me as a present.
It brings to mind vision of my son back on Planet
Hocotate. Oh, to be back there right now.

This was a gift from my son. He must be very
worried about me...

 ----------------------
|  26. Geiger Counter  |
 ----------------------

Day 12

Weight- 15

Necessary- Yes

Description- Every spaceship needs one of these,
but I don't actually know what it's for. Every
once in a while, it goes wild and lets out a lot
of noise, but I never pay much attention to it, so
it doesn't do me much good. I really should read
that instruction manual one of these days!

This gauge is always letting off noise.



====================
  The Forest Navel
====================

 ------------------
|  6. Space Float  |
 ------------------

Day 4

Weight- 25

Necessary- No

Description- This is an absolute necessity for any
pilot who lacks skill at swimming in space.

An excellent swimmer like me has no need for
something like this, but my motto is "always be
prepared." Really. It's just for emergencies.

 ---------------------
|  7. Automatic Gear  |
 ---------------------

Day 4

Weight- 15

Necessary- Yes

Description-  This thing chugs along at its own pace.
It makes piloting much easier, giving me time to  
concentrate on the finer points of space travel.

It has thin cracks running through it. I tried to
fill them with dirt. I hope it will be alright.

 --------------------
|  8. #1 Ionium Jet  |
 --------------------

Day 4

Weight- 15

Necessary- Yes

Description- Unfortunetely, this part puts out a
slightly odoriferous exhaust, but it does propel
me to escape velocity in an instant. The stench is
a small price to pay for such performance!

If this is damaged, I'll be in dire straits. I'll
have to run a system check as soon as I can.

 -------------
|  10. Libra  |
 -------------

Day 6

Weight- 15

Necessary- Yes

Description- My daughter gave this to me. It's
named after her astrological sign. My sweet little
girl... I wonder what she's doing right at this
moment...

My daughter gave this to me. My late return must
have her very worried.

 -----------------------
|  11. Analog Computer  |
 -----------------------

Day 6

Weight- 20

Necessary- Yes

Description- This holds the kind of vague data that
falls outside the range of ones and zeros. Actually,
to be honest, it's a little bit too vague, so it
isn't very helpful.

This strengthens the outward emotions of the 
Dolphin's computer. While it does make the computer
smart, it also makes it quick to anger. It's just
like my boss.

 ----------------------
|  12. Gravity Jumper  |
 ----------------------

Day 6

Weight- 25

Necessary- Yes

Description- By manipulating the forces of gravity,
this key component gives me the final boost I need
to make the jump to super light speed. Good thing
I found it.

This anti-gravity device allows the Dolphin to swim
gracefully through the sea of stars like... a 
dolphin.

 ------------------------
|  16. Omega Stabilizer  | 
 ------------------------

Day 8

Weight- 30

Necessary- Yes

Description- I absolutely must have this piece if
my battered ship is ever to fly straight again. It
has steered me through countless deep space storms.
Thet, and it looks rather cool.

This is the Dolphin's fin. It is a little beaten
up, but it should still function. I've made great
strides in repairing the Dolphin! With this, I
should be able to fly again- even if I don't
recover all 30 parts.

 --------------------------
|  17. Anti-Dioxin Filter  |
 --------------------------

Day 8

Weight- 40

Necessary- Yes

Description- This fits over the rocket's exhaust
ports and filters out all disease-causing agents
from the ship's exhaust. That means I'll be able
to move around withoue polluting the planet's
atmosphere! I'll feel worlds better!

The laws of deep space require all ships to
eliminate all pollutants.

 -----------------------
|  18. Guard Satellite  |
 -----------------------

Day 9

Weight- 20

Necessary- Yes

Description- Deep space is filled with dangers.
This automated satellite does its part to help
guard me and my spaceship. I'll sleep better at
night once this little satellite is back on duty.

This has protected my from space pirates many, many
times.




 ======================
   The Distant Spring
 ======================

 ------------------------
|  19. Repair-Type Bolt  |
 ------------------------

Day 10

Weight- 20

Necessary- Yes

Description- This robotic marvel can fix just about
anything in the ship that's broken. That's good,
because I get terribly bored fixing little glitches.

This looks like an ordinary bolt but, it's actually
a repair robot.

 -----------------------
|  20. Massage Machine  | 
 -----------------------

Day 10

Weight- 20

Necessary- No

Description- Put this right down in the lower back
area and let it go to work. I can't wait until I
get this installed again, as my lower lumbar region
has been paining me ever since the crash. Ahh,
sweet relief...

I've been walking so much lately- I'm really looking
forward to using this...

 --------------------------
|  21. Interstellar Radio  |
 --------------------------

Day 10

Weight- 20

Necessary- Yes

Description- Not only does it emit a constant S.O.S.
signal, it also broadcasts voices from space that
will brighten up my moments of boredom. The Dolphin,
while comfortable, becomes quite a lonely place in
the depths of night...

This part will send out a daily S.O.S. signal. I
have so little time remaining, though, that I have
no option but to continue my search rather than
waiting for a rescue party. Having to collect every
part is a bit overwhelming... but I get the 
impression that not all parts are needed to fly the
ship.

 ----------------
|  22. Bowsprit  |
 ----------------

Day 11

Weight- 30

Necessary- Yes

Description- With this installed, my ship should
regain some of its sleek shape. 

The so-called face of the Dolphin. In point of fact,
I designed it.

 --------------------
|  23. Pilot's Seat  |
 --------------------

Day 11

Weight- 25

Necessary- Yes

Description- Once I get this installed, my cockpit
will finally be back in order. Soon, my ship will be
starting to look more and more like the Dolphin of
old. Ah, the memories...

Picturing this in the cockpit, images of me lifting
off into space begin to fill my taxed brain. It fills
me with inspiration once again!

 ---------------
|  24. UV Lamp  |
 ---------------

Day 11

Weight- 10

Necessary- No

Deacription- The only problem with this handheld
light is that it can be too bright at times. I have
to remember to wear my sun visor whenever I look
into it.

This handy light is great for tanning... but it
doesn't seem to have any relation to the Dolphin's
flight capabilities. I doubt that it will affect my
escape from this planet. Perhaps there are other
parts like this as well.

 ---------------------
|  25. #2 Ionium Jet  |
 ---------------------

Day 11

Weight- 15

Necessary- Yes

Description- It's easy on the eyes, and its fuel
efficiency is easy on the budget.

The ads for these jets boast that "with excellent
mileage that's easy on the family budget, this jet
will keep your wife smiling and propel you to a
happy home life!"

 -----------------------
|  27. Chronos Reactor  |
 -----------------------

Day 13

Weight- 20

Necessary- Yes

Description- Using new technology, this machine is
able to warp the space-time continuum and turn it
into energy. I am constantly amazed at how many
mysteries are locked inside the parts of my ship...

This reactor changes permutations in the space-time
continuum into pure energy... Basically, it's like
a big rubber band.

 -------------------
|  28. Gluon Drive  |
 -------------------

Day 14

Weight- 50

Necessary- Yes

Description- Using the quark-binding metaphysical
properties of gluons, this device... Well, it's...
very scientific, and I don't fully understand it
myself, but it was very expensive...

I have no idea how this works, but it means the
Dolphin will again lift off with it's characteristic
roar!

 -----------------------
|  29. Zirconium Rotor  |
 -----------------------

Day 14

Weight- 30

Necessary- Yes

Description- This is made from rust-proof zirconium,
which is particularly suited for making spaceship
parts. I had to pay a lot of extra money to have this
installed, and I suspect the mechanic overcharged me.

Made of rust-proof zirconium, it is as shiny as new,
despite being left in this planet's harsh elements.




 ===================
   The Final Trial 
 ===================

 ------------------
| 30. Secret Safe  |
 ------------------

Day 15

Weight- 40

Necessary- No

Description- At long last... I've found the 
final part... my Secret Safe! And it's as full 
as ever! How glad I am that I've persisted in     
my search without losing hope... Now I can leave   
this planet without any regrets. Mabye I'll even   
stop and pick up some souvenirs for my wife   
and kids back on Planet Hocotate!

At last I have found it- my most prized possession!
I am so relieved... It's as heavy as ever.             




*****************
* 8. Piklopedia *
*****************

The Piklopedia is a field guide to the creatures of the strange planet
the Pikmin live on. The term Piklopedia is used in Pikmin 2.

 

  1. Armored Cannon Beetle                       
     Weight- 30                                    
     Seeds Produced- 50                          
     Location- Forest of Hope, Forest Navel      
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Red         
                                                
     Strategy- When the Cannon Beetle starts to  
     charge up his rock blast, throw a Pikmin    
     into the opening above his eye. He will      
     screech and open his wings. Throw Pikmin on 
     to the red stuff under his wings as quickly  
     as possible. When he closes his wings, the  
     Pikmin fall off. Repeat the process until   
     he dies.                                    
                                                


  2. Beady Long Legs                             
     Pseudoarachnia armoralis                    
     Aracnorb family                             
                                                
     Although this creature is commonly          
     associated with spiders, it is actually the 
     result of a separate evolutionary line of   
     insectoid creatures. Since the spherical    
     body section supported by the creature's    
     legs carries most of its internal organs,   
     there appear to be no other features that   
     would correspond to a head or abdomen.      
                                                 
     Weight- N/A                                 
     Seeds Produced- N/A                         
     Location- Forest Navel                      
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Yellow, Red 
                                                 
     Strategy- Throw Pikmin onto his body. Some  
     of your Pikmin will try to attack his legs  
     which won't do very much. Call them over    
     before he crushes them. Keep throwing       
     Pikmin onto his body until he goes down.    
                                                


  3. Breadbug                                 
     Pansarus gluttonae                          
     Breadbug family                             
                                                
     The adult Breadbug competes for many of the 
     same food sources as Pikmin, but its thick- 
     skinned hide allows it to withstand most    
     Pikmin group attacks. However, some         
     researchers claim to have observed          
     Breadbugs being overwhelmed by massive      
     numbers of Pikmin and reduced to food.      
                                                
     Weight- 3                                   
     Seeds Produced- 3                           
     Location- Forest Navel                      
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Any        
                                                
     Strategy- Wait around a pellet until the    
     Breadbug comes. He'll grab it and bring it  
     to his den. When he latches on, swarm the   
     pellet. The Pikmin will overpower him and   
     bring the pellet to the Onion. The Onion    
     will suck the pellet in and the Breadbug    
     will hit the bottom of the Onion and        
     sustain severe damage. To finish him off,   
     punch him or throw a Pikmin on top of him.  
                                              

  
  4. Burrowing Snagret                           
     Shiropedes anacondii                        
     Snavian family                              
                                                
     The majority of Snagret species lie in wait 
     to ambush and capture prey, with a body     
     type perfectly adapted to such sudden       
     strikes. It violently attacks small,        
     surface-dwelling insects. Distributited     
     across a relatively wide range, subspecies  
     of Snagret suited to the varying soil       
     conditions have emerged, making the Snagret 
     the most geographically reresented species  
     besides the Bulborb. Visually resembling    
     the Burrowing Snagret is the Burrowing      
     Snarrow, the range of which particularly    
     overlaps with the Snagret's range. While    
     the two may appear similar, when pulled     
     from the ground they can be distinguished   
     by the presence or absence of tail and wing 
     markings.                                   
                                                
     Weight- N/A                                 
     Seeds Produced- N/A                         
     Location- Forest of Hope                    
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- blue (due  
     the presence of water near the battle       
     ground)                                     
                                                
     Strategy- Use blue Pikmin because you will  
     only need to kill the one farthest from the 
     entrance with the part. Throw your Pikmin   
     on its head because that's its weak spot.   
     If it has trouble coming up swarm it for    
     what is usually a very quick kill if done   
     correctly.                                  
                                                
                  
  
  5. Crimson (Red) Candypop Bud                  
     Flora rufusia                               
     Candypop family                             
                                                
     No matter what color Pikmin is tossed into 
     this flower, it spits out the same number   
     of red Pikmin seeds. The Pikmin, the        
     Candypop flowers, and the Pikmin Onions are 
     not easily explained by current theories of 
     the xenobotanical sciences, thus have not   
     been appropriately studied and classified.  
                                                
     Weight- N/A                                 
     Seeds Produced- N/A                         
     Loaction- Forest Navel, Distant Spring,     
     Final Trial                                 
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Can't be   
     fought                                      
                                                
     Strategy- Throw any color Pikmin into it    
     and it will disperse one red Pikmin seed    
     for each Pikmin you threw in.               
                                                


  6. Golden (Yellow) Candypop Bud                
     Flora aurumia                               
     Candypop family                             
                                                 
     No matter what color Pikmin is tossed into   
     this flower, it spits out the same number   
     of yellow Pikmin seeds. Current research    
     has yet to provide any theories as to       
     precisely what kind of interaction causes   
     the Pikmin to change color to match the      
     color of this flower's petals.

     No matter what color Pikmin is tossed into  
     this flower, it spits out the same number   
     of blue Pikmin seeds. This family of plant       
     boasts soft, fleshy leaves, the sinewy      
     tendrils of which allow the flower to open  
     and close repeatedly over the course of a   
     day.

     A grub-dog larva in its third stage of      
     development, this creature's body structure 
     is nearing maturation. However, unlike      
     mature Bulbears, it has yet to claim its    
     own patrol route, and thus is dependent     
     upon its parent for guarding direction.

     swarm it.                                   



  9. Dwarf Bulborb

     Although initially identified as a juvenile 
     Spotty Bulborb, groundbreaking new research 
     indicates that this creature is in fact a   
     member of the Breadbug family. A close      
     relative of the Vanilla Breadbug, it        
     escapes predation through mimicry. Unique   
     adaptation of the Spotty Bulborb's crimson  
     coloration allows the species to safely     
     commingle. Such effective adaptation and    
     obfuscation by a prey species is rare,      
     indicating this clever creature is a master 
     of mimicry.

     Strategy- There are many ways to kill the   
     Dwarf Bulborb. You can swarm it with the    
     C-stick, throw Pikmin at it, kill it        
     quickly by throwing a Pikmin directly on    
     its head (I recommend bird's eye view for   
     this), or you can punch it to death fairly  
     quickly.                                    



 10. Emporer Bulblax                            
     Oculus supremus                           
     Grub-dog family                            
                                                
     The largest member of the Grub-dog family  
     is normally found buried in the ground,    
     with only the stalks of its eyes exposed.  
     This camouflage allows the predator to     
     surprise smaller creatures and use its     
     long, adhesive tongue to capture prey. The 
     thick hide and angular hump give the       
     organism a distinct rocklike quality.      
     During the rainy season, moss grows freely 
     on its hump, making it nearly impossible   
     to distinguish this lethal predator from a 
     stone.

     Strategy- Take about 20 red Pikmin in at a 
     time and throw them onto the side of his   
     mouth. Avoid his swinging tongue.          
     He will jump up and down to get them off.  
     Repeat the process until he is defeated.   
     When he has about 1/3 health left, he      
     will start jumping up and down trying to   
     smash your Pikmin. Walk around to avoid    
     him. When he lands, continue to throw      
     Pikmin onto the side of his face.    
     It may take a while, but he will         
     eventually fall.                           



 11. Fiery Blowhog                              
     Sus draconus                               
     Blowhog family                             
                                                
     This creature expels a volatile            
     phosphorous compound from its snout that   
     combusts upon contact with air. This fire- 
     breathing ability is dependent upon the    
     air-to-fuel ratio at its mouth, catalyst   
     reaction within the expelled compound, and 
     purification of the compound. Thus it is   
     highly unlikely such a complex process     
     could cause the spontaneous explosion of a 
     fallen Blowhog. (This process is also      
     perhaps to avoid the risk of spontaneous   
     combustion in the belly of a live          
     specimen.) However, one should still treat 
     a Fiery Blowhog with great care, even      
     after its life functions have ceased.

     Strategy- Throw red Pikmin on top and they 
     shouldn't have much trouble killing it.    
     As long as you use reds, the only trouble  
     you can run into is if it kicks your       
     Pikmin into the water.

     Strategy- There are three ways to defeat   
     the Goolix. You can throw Pikmin directly  
     on top of the big nucleus, swarm the small 
     nucleus, or move into position so that     
     your Pikmin are next to the small nucleus  
     and dismiss them. When you do this, the    
     Pikmin will attack the nucleus.

     This floating life-form drifts             
     effortlessly on the winds. Upon death, its 
     physical structure instantly collapses,    
     and as the creature is particularly        
     elusive and diffucult to catch, no sample  
     specimens have been acquired as of yet. If 
     we could simply recover a live sample,     
     research on this species would likely      
     proceed more smoothly...

     will drop nectar.                          



 14. Iridescent Flint Beetle                    
     Pilli envelopens
     Flint Beetle Family                       
                                                
     Flint Beetles are nocturnal, choosing to   
     hide in the grass by day and stay active   
     at night. These creatures keep undigested  
     food pellets in their stomachs to sustain  
     them through winter, but given the right   
     stimulus they will spit them out. Recent   
     research has revealed that these pellets   
     are enveloped in a membrane that seals and 
     preserves them in a sterile, airtight      
     environment. If kept at room temperature,  
     it seems that this pellet membrane will    
     keep its contents fresh for up to six      
     months. The membrane may be made from the  
     same substance that gives the exoskeleton  
     of the Flint Beetle its beautiful sheen.

     Strategy- If you throw a Pikmin on its     
     back, it will drop nectar or pellets. If   
     you hit it enough times, it will drop a    
     "5" pellet.                                



 15. Mamuta

     The imbalanced, asymmetrical arms of the   
     Mamuta are among its most notable          
     features. Feeding on seeds and fruit, the  
     Mamuta is known to actually sow and grow   
     plant species. While other species have    
     exhibited seed-burying behavior for the    
     purpose of storage, the Mamuta is the only 
     species so far known to actually cultivate 
     fields of plants.

     Strategy- Throw red Pikmin on its face     
     until it goes down. You will have to pluck 
     all of the Pikmin in battle a few times,   
     as he smashes the Pikmin into the ground,  
     turning them back into sprouts.

     Strategy- Throw a few Pikmin at the pearl. 
     They will attack the clam. When the door   
     opens wide, call your Pikmin out before it 
     slams shut. Any Pikmin still inside will   
     be crushed. Repeat the process until the   
     pearl is dislodged. Take it back for an    
     easy 50 seeds.                             



 17. Pellet Posy

     In the stem of the Pellet Posy, one can     
     observe the muscle fiber unique to half-
     plant, half-animal species such as the
     Pikmin and Candypop flowers, so the
     Pellet Posy is a species that can be
     considered a close relative. Although the
     ability to crystallize nectar is unique to
     a small group of the Pellet Weed family,
     the fact that these plants reach maturity
     so quickly and that their pellets contain
     such high concentrations of the natural
     nutrients in the soil explains why the
     Pikmin and so many of the other indigenous
     species are so reliant on these pellets for
     sustenance.

     Strategy- Throw a few Pikmin at it. They
     will give chase. The Puffstool will eventually 
     flip over. As quickly as possible, hurl 
     Pikmin at it. It will flip back and start to
     squeeze tightly. When it does this, you must
     immediately get your Pikmin out from under it.
     It will launch a plume of poisonous gas from 
     under its top. Any Pikmin that get hit will 
     turn into purple Pikmin with mushroom heads
     them. Repeat the process until he falls. 
     (Try to avoid the poison. Those purple 
     Pikmin can be a real pain in the ass.)



 19. Puffy Blowhog
     Sus inflata
     Blowhog family

     This species of Blowhog uses internally
     generated hydrogen to inflate a flotation
     bladder and hover above the ground. The
     creature's electrified pulse creates a
     sash of color that flows along the surface
     of its body, making it a particularly
     beautiful Blowhog species. Precisely how it
     is able to internally stabilize its highly
     explosive hydrogen and simultaneously
     generate electricity remains a mystery. The
     Puffy Blowhog blows leaves and grass around
     to eat the insects underneath. It maintains
     midair buoyancy by using its fins and releasing
     air through blowholes. This enables it to
     float effortlessly, even in the breeze. In
     times of danger, the Puffy Blowhog can
     decompress its floatation bladder for a
     rapid escape from predators.

 21. Shearwig
     Himeagea volaris

     Unusual for their genus, flying mandiblards
     have retained their wings. However, only the
     adult males of this species cam fly. Females
     spend most of their life span underground.
     They do emerge for a period after maturation
     to spawn, but never metamorphose.

     Weight- 1
     Seeds Produced- 4
     Location- Forest Navel, Distant Spring
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Red

     Strategy- Swarm. When it tries to escape,
     throw a Pikmin at it.  If it goes in water,
     it also loses health.



 22. Smoky Progg
     Weight- 3
     Seeds Produced- 100
     Location- Distant Spring (days 1-15)
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Red

     Strategy- Take 3 blue Pikmin to the "pie-wedge"
     islands on any day before day 16. Throw them at
     the huge egg. Put the blue Pikmin away and get
     out 20 reds. The Smoky Progg should be visible
     in the distance. Throw Pikmin onto his face and
     ONLY his face. Avoid the sludge oozing from its
     back at all costs, as it kills Pikmin on contact.
     This is the hardest enemy in the game, and I
     recommend you don't battle it unless you've beaten
     the game at least 3 times. This battle took me
     a fourth of the day the first time I did it,
     but the reward for killing this incredibly 
     difficult creature is a well deserved 100
     (that's right, 100) Pikmin seeds. For novices 
     that reach this area before Day 16 (you will
     if you follow my walkthrough) you can take out
     about 50 blues and destroy the egg. This does
     not give you the 100 seeds, but it does reward
     you with a satisfying explosion.



 23. Spotty Bulbear
     Oculus terribilis dotticum
     Grub-dog family

     Weight- 10
     Seeds Produced- 15
     Location- Distant Spring
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Red

     Strategy- Swarm from rear.



 24. Spotty Bulborb
     Oculus kageyamii russus
     Grub-dog family

     This large organism has the familiar mandibles
     and cranial morphology of the grub-dog family
     as well as the characteristic bulging eyes. As
     with most grub-dogs, this creature's cranium
     comprises half of its total length and girth.
     Showing a scarlet abdomen with white spots,
     this creature is primarily nocturnal, choosing
     to prey upon smaller creatures returning to
     their nests.

     Weight- 10
     Seeds Produced- 12
     Location- Forest of Hope
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Any

     Strategy- Swarm from rear or rapidly throw
     Pikmin on its back.



 25. Swooping Snitchbug
     Scarpanica kesperens
     Scarpanid family

     The scarpanids originally lived on the ground,
     sporting poorly developed vestigial wings.
     This species developed enlarged antennae that
     can be used as makeshift wings. Scarpanids are
     attracted by the sight of large groups of
     Pikmin in cavalry formation and will swoop
     down to seize them. However, scarpanids do not
     eat Pikmin, and they will drop any seized
     Pikmin after a short time. The reason for this
     behavior is unknown.

     Weight- 3
     Seeds Produced- 4
     Location- Forest of Hope, Distant Spring
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Any

     Strategy- Throw Pikmin onto it. When it falls,
     swarm it. 



 26. Water Dumple
     Ichthyoso felinis
     Grub-dog family

     A resident of freshwater pools and marshes,
     this aquatic creature regularly feeds on
     insects that land on the surface of the water.
     It shares a nearly identical skeletal structure
     with its close relative and terrestrial cousin,
     the Bulborb. This may offer clues to its
     evolutionary origin and suggests that it only
     recently emigrated to an aquatic habitat.

     Weight- 5
     Seeds Produced- 5
     Location- Distant Spring
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Blue

     Strategy- Swarm from any side.



 27. Wogpole
     Amphicarus frodendum
     Amphituber family

     The Wollywog spawns in early spring, laying
     its eggs on low-hanging tree branches and shrubs
     growing in or near lakes and ponds. Such
     unorthodox amphibious behavior is a defense
     mechanism, preventing the eggs from predation
     by blue Pikmin and Water Dumples. The Wollywog's
     wild hopping in the spring is thought to be a
     method of driving predators away from the
     Wogpole eggs. 

     Weight- 1
     Seeds Produced- 1
     Location- Forest of Hope, Distant Spring
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Blue

     Strategy- Throw a Pikmin at it and stand still.
     The Pikmin will give chase, eventually catching
     and killing it.



 28. Wollywog
     Amphicarus albino
     Amphituber family

     It is believed that juvenile Wollywogs were
     once carried by underground current into
     caverns, where they thrived in the dark
     habitat. This troglodytic species of Wollywog's          
     coloration results from generations of cave
     dwelling and lack of sunlight. Comparative
     differences between the size and shape of this
     Wollywog are thought to be the result of
     natural selection at work, choosing traits
     better suited to living in a subterranean
     environment.

     Weight- 7
     Seeds Produced- 8
     Location- Forest Navel
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Blue

     Strategy- Overload it with Pikmin by swarming
     it. In most cases, it says down long enough for
     the kill.



 29. Yellow Wollywog
     Amphicarus frodendum
     Amphituber family

     This magnificent specimen has the brightest gold
     coloration and the greatest number of lateral
     spots of any member of the Amphituber family.
     This species seems to have lost some swimming
     proficiency with the evolutionary adapyation
     that granted it greater jumping ability. The
     Amphituber inhabits aquatic shallows and shows
     instinctive drive to jump upon and squash
     smaller creatures.

     Weight- 7
     Seeds Produced- 8
     Location- Distant Spring
     Recommended Pikmin for Fighting- Blue

     Strategy- Same as Wollywog, just swarm it.
