The '''King of Bugs''' ({{j|虫の王|Mushi no Ou|King of Bugs}}) is a [[treasure]] in {{p2}}, and is the final one listed in the [[Treasure Hoard]]. The treasure is actually [[Louie]], rescued from the [[Titan Dweevil]] in sublevel 14 of the [[Dream Den]]. Even after he is brought back, the player continues to control [[the President]] as the secondary leader from there on. The reason given by the crew to store him with the pile of treasure is because there is no room for him in the cockpit.{{cite quote|Louie? ... ... ... Are your life functions fading? ... No!

The '''King of Bugs''' ({{j|虫の王|Mushi no Ou|King of Bugs}}) is actually just [[Louie]]. Olimar saved him after the [[Titan Dweevil]] (sublevel 14 of the [[Dream Den]]) was defeated, and apparently, it was advisable to put him in the Ship's Pod because there are only two seats in the Ship. Louie now insists that everyone address him by his "proper title", the King of Bugs. It could be believed that Louie was actually controlling the Titan Dweevil; he was not even harmed when he was captured and saved, and according to the [[sales pitch]] in the Treasure Hoard, Louie hijacked a "colossal insect's brain". He is tied for the least valuable treasure.

[[File:Spacesuits light difference Louie King of Bugs.png|thumbnail|A screenshot showing the light's color difference between Louie's and the King of Bugs's spacesuits.]]
* Louie's and the King of Bugs's spacesuits are slightly different, particularly the saturation of their antenna light.
*Louie's and the King of Bugs's spacesuits are actually slightly different (their light in particular). This can be seen better with hacks.
* This treasure and the [[Temporal Mechanism]] are the only two treasures that animate when not being carried &ndash; Louie's head bobs up and down when idling.
 
*In the Japanese version and in an early version of the English translation, Olimar's notes on the King of Bugs are very different, mostly focusing on the Titan Dweevil and Pikmin, rather than suggesting that Louie could be controlling the creature.{{cite web|https://tcrf.net/Proto:Pikmin_2/Treasure_Hoard_Entries#201_-_King_of_Bugs|Proto:Pikmin 2/Treasure_Hoard_Entries|The Cutting Room Floor}}
