'''Treasures''' are collectable items found in several games in the ''Pikmin'' series. In {{p2}}, they are the main collectable, and must be retrieved in order to repay [[Hocotate Freight]]'s debt. Treasures also appear as a primary collectable in ''[[Pikmin 4]]''. In {{hp}}, treasures help refuel the [[S.S. Dolphin II]]'s [[Sparklium]] supply. These objects are usually day-to-day accessories used by real world humans, but to the alien explorers of the ''Pikmin'' series, they seem like valuable treasures. The concept of a treasure also exists in {{p3}}, but only in [[Mission Mode]], where [[fruit]]s and other valuable collectibles are all referred to as "treasure".

There is a mechanic in ''Pikmin 2'' that can change the weight of some treasures inside strong enemies. If after defeating the beast, the player does not have enough Pikmin to carry the treasure, its weight will decrease to match the number of Pikmin, to a minimum of 1. Each [[Purple Pikmin]] counts as 1, despite having the carrying strength of 10.

The very first treasure that is used to repay the debt in ''Pikmin 2'' is not acknowledged in-game, and is only seen in the opening [[cutscene]]. It is a bottle cap that Olimar brings in his hand as a souvenir to his son. When he drops it after hearing the debt's total amount, the [[Hocotate ship]] beams it up and knocks down {{pokos|100}} from the debt total, turning it into a round {{pokos|10000}}. It is a small white bottle cap, smaller than collectible ones seen in-game, and is slightly bent. Although very hard to see, due to the way it faces from the camera, the face is cyan, has a red border with the white words "SHIZAKIPIKI SODA" written twice, and has a red star in the center. This is a fictional brand, with "piki" being [[Pikmin family#Naming|short for Pikmin]].
