* Document what needs to be done to open each creature's entry. Some need to be defeated, and others need to be touched, but there may be more complex mechanics.
* Be more specific about what counts as "when the final boss is defeated" &ndash; is it when its health drops to 0, its treasures are recovered, the King of Bugs is recovered, etc.

The '''Piklopedia''' ({{j|生物図鑑|Seibutsu Zukan|Creature Field Guide}}) is an in-game list of all the [[Enemy|enemies]] and [[plant]]s in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' that the player has come in contact with throughout their exploration. The player can access the [[Menu/Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard|Piklopedia's menu]] by pressing {{button|gc|l|wii|padl}} when on the [[Menu/Area selection|area selection menu]].


[[Image:Piklopedia.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Screenshot of the Piklopedia.]]
This catalog also keeps track of how many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] have been lost to each enemy, how many of said enemy the player has defeated so far, and how many [[Poko]]s the enemy is worth. For fields that cannot be counted, four dashes appear instead. On top of that, it also contains [[#Notes|notes]] written down by Olimar and Louie. Selecting the slot of a creature that has not been seen yet will just produce static on the main "screen", and their grid slots will show their Piklopedia number, instead of their icon.


:''This article is about Olimar's encyclopedia on the life-forms he has encountered in ''Pikmin 2''. It is not to be confused with [[Pikipedia]], the name of this Wiki.''
[[Pikpik carrot]]s can be thrown at enemies to see their reaction, although the throws cannot be directly aimed &ndash; not even with the [[New Play Control! Pikmin 2|''New Play Control!'' remake]]'s enhanced cursor &ndash; and are loosely based on the direction the [[camera]] is facing. [[Ultra-bitter spray]]s can also be used on the non-plant creatures by pressing {{button|gc|z|wii|1}}; this does not affect the in-game spray count, and can be used before those sprays are even discovered.


The '''Piklopedia''' is an in-game list of all the [[plant]]s and [[Enemy|enemies]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' that the player has come in contact with throughout their exploration. The player can access the [[Menu#Piklopedia|Piklopedia's menu]] by pressing {{button|gcn|L|wii|Padleft}} when on the [[Menu#Area selection|area selection menu]].
The Piklopedia is the counterpart to the [[Treasure Hoard]], which shares [[Music in Pikmin 2#Piklopedia/Treasure Hoard|the same music]].


When using the Piklopedia, the scenery will change depending on what region [[Hocotate ship|the ship]] is hovering on the [[Menu#Area selection|area selection screen]]. [[Pikpik carrot]]s can also be thrown at [[Enemy|enemies]] to see their reaction, although the throws cannot be aimed &ndash; not even with the [[New Play Control! Pikmin 2|''New Play Control!'' remake]]'s enhanced cursor &ndash; and are loosely based on the direction the [[camera]] is facing. [[Olimar's notes]] can be read by pressing {{button|gcn|X|wii|+}}, and [[Louie's notes]], if available, can be read by pressing {{button|gcn|Y|wii|-}}. [[Ultra-Bitter Spray]]s can also be used on the non-plant creatures by pressing {{button|gcn|Z|wii|1}}; this does not affect the in-game spray count. The Piklopedia is the counterpart to the [[Treasure Hoard]], which shares the same music:
Once the debt is repaid, both the Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard's unseen entries become shown, albeit still unfilled. This was most likely added to help the player track down the last few entries they are missing.

== Notes ==
{|class="wikitable sortable"
Both [[Captain Olimar]] and [[Louie]] write some notes about every entry in the Piklopedia. These notes are merely for fun and for world-building, and rarely contain any information useful for gameplay. Only the notes of unlocked entries can be seen. The comments written by both return in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 3 Deluxe)|Piklopedia]] of {{p3d}} and the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 4)|Piklopedia]] of {{p4}}, almost verbatim.

Olimar's notes focus on giving information about the creature, including its scientific name, habits, biological features, and mysteries. They can be read by picking an entry and pressing {{button|gc|x|wii|+}}. His notes are always available as long as the entry is available.

|-
Louie's notes provide recipes on how to cook the creature. They can be read by picking an entry and pressing {{button|gc|y|wii|-}}. His notes only become available when the player defeats the [[Titan Dweevil]] and recovers Louie as [[King of Bugs|a treasure]] for the first time. Once this happens, a global flag is set in the game's [[saved game|save data]], and his notes become available forever, for any [[Story Mode]] slot, even if the original slot is deleted.

Interestingly, Louie references ingredients found on Earth (cultivated in oxygen). These ingredients could not possibly be known by Louie, as Hocotate has a severely different climate. A possible explanation would be that Hocotatian plants often have similar appearances to those found on Earth, meaning that Louie would be using the names he is familiar with for a completely different plant.

|-
* The [[Waterwraith]] is notable for not only not leaving any corpse, but its physical form being anchored to another dimension.

These same sort of oddities also exist in ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe''{{'s}} Piklopedia as listed [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 3 Deluxe)#Recipe oddities|here]], many of which carry over to ''Pikmin 4''{{'s}} Piklopedia which are listed [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 4)#Recipe oddities|here]].

==Areas==
|-
When using the Piklopedia and the [[Treasure Hoard]], the scenery will change depending on what area [[Hocotate ship|the ship]] is hovering on, on the [[Menu#Area selection|area selection screen]]. Each object seen will spawn in a different, pre-specified location of the area. The [[Valley of Repose]], the [[Awakening Wood]] and the [[Perplexing Pool]] have some notable differences compared to their in-game counterparts, while the [[Wistful Wild]] is barely any different. For a list of differences in the two versions of an area, please read the corresponding area article. The following maps illustrate a top-down view of the Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard versions of the areas, excluding the Wistful Wild, which only has differences in background theme and barely any changes to the level design at all.
|[[Puffy Blowhog]]||The Distant Spring, Glutton's Kitchen, Cavern of Chaos, Hole of Heroes, Dream Den||Novice Training, Cave of Snarls||Carpet Plain
 
|-
These slightly changed areas were also seen in [[Pikmin 2 prerelease information|prerelease material]].

==Entry criteria==
|[[Doodlebug]]||Frontier Cavern, Shower Room, Hole of Heroes, Dream Den||Novice Training, Cryptic Cavern||
{{stub|section=y|List the unlock requirements for each entry.}}
|-
To unlock an entry in the Piklopedia, the player must find one of that object during gameplay and do something specific to it, which varies from entry to entry.
|[[Female Sheargrub]]||The Forest of Hope, Awakening Wood, Hole of Beasts, White Flower Garden, Bulblax Kingdom, Glutton's Kitchen, Hole of Heroes, War Path (2-P Mode), Angle Maze (2-P Mode), Dim Labyrinth (2-P Mode)||Twilight Garden, Cave of Snarls, Rumbling Grotto||Battle Field, Carpet Plain, Rusty Gulch
 
|-
To note is that some entries will only be unlocked, and their kill/death stats will only be updated, if the player interacts with a specific variant of that object. For instance, having a buried Armored Cannon Beetle Larva kill 3 Pikmin and then be killed will not result in any change in the Piklopedia. The following is a list of all entries with this limitation:
|[[Male Sheargrub]]||The Forest of Hope, The Forest Navel, Awakening Wood, Hole of Beasts, White Flower Garden, Snagret Hole, Glutton's Kitchen, Hole of Heroes||Twilight Garden, Cave of Snarls, Rumbling Grotto||
* {{icon|Armored Cannon Larva|y|n=Armored Cannon Beetle Larva}}: only the free-roaming variant counts; the buried one does not.
|-
* {{icon|Gatling Groink|y}}: only the free-roaming variant counts; the tower one does not.

* {{icon|Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud}} {{icon|Crimson Candypop Bud}} {{icon|Golden Candypop Bud}} {{icon|Violet Candypop Bud}} {{icon|Ivory Candypop Bud}} [[Candypop Bud]]s: throwing in one Pikmin is enough, it does not need to wither.
|-
* {{icon|Figwort|y}}: only the large healthy variant counts; the small healthy, large dead, and small dead ones do not.
|[[Cloaking Burrow-nit]]||Valley of Repose, Awakening Wood, Wistful Wild, Snagret Hole, Glutton's Kitchen, Cavern of Chaos, Hole of Heroes, Dream Den|| ||
* {{icon|Glowstem|y}}: only the red variant counts; the green one does not.
|-
* {{icon|Shoot|y}}: only the large variant counts; the small one does not.

==Enemies that can die==
|[[Anode Beetle]]||Subterranean Complex, Frontier Cavern, Bulblax Kingdom, Citadel of Spiders, Glutton's Kitchen, Submerged Castle, Cavern of Chaos, Hole of Heroes, Dream Den|| ||
Some enemies can actually die whilst on the Piklopedia.

* Volatile Dweevils blow up when awakened.
|-
* [[Mandiblard]]s will lose health if they touch water, and can even drown.
|[[Hermit Crawmad]]|| || ||
* Due to a [[Glitches in Pikmin 2|glitch]], if one petrifies a [[Hermit Crawmad]] on dry land and throws several Pikpik carrots, the creature will gradually lose health, and can die.

Latest revision as of 14:08, February 18, 2024

This article is about the in-game encyclopedia of enemies in Pikmin 2. It is not to be confused with Pikipedia, the name of this wiki.
For the Piklopedia in other games, see Piklopedia (Pikmin 3 Deluxe) and Piklopedia (Pikmin 4).

The following article or section is in need of assistance from someone who plays Pikmin 2.
Particularly:

  • Document what needs to be done to open each creature's entry. Some need to be defeated, and others need to be touched, but there may be more complex mechanics.
  • Be more specific about what counts as "when the final boss is defeated" – is it when its health drops to 0, its treasures are recovered, the King of Bugs is recovered, etc.
Screenshot of the Piklopedia.
Screenshot of the Piklopedia, on the Puffy Blowhog's entry.

The Piklopedia (生物図鑑?, lit.: "Creature Field Guide") is an in-game list of all the enemies and plants in Pikmin 2 that the player has come in contact with throughout their exploration. The player can access the Piklopedia's menu by pressing GCN L.png / Wiimote Dpad left.png when on the area selection menu.

This catalog also keeps track of how many Pikmin have been lost to each enemy, how many of said enemy the player has defeated so far, and how many Pokos the enemy is worth. For fields that cannot be counted, four dashes appear instead. On top of that, it also contains notes written down by Olimar and Louie. Selecting the slot of a creature that has not been seen yet will just produce static on the main "screen", and their grid slots will show their Piklopedia number, instead of their icon.

Pikpik carrots can be thrown at enemies to see their reaction, although the throws cannot be directly aimed – not even with the New Play Control! remake's enhanced cursor – and are loosely based on the direction the camera is facing. Ultra-bitter sprays can also be used on the non-plant creatures by pressing GCN Z.png / Wiimote 1.png; this does not affect the in-game spray count, and can be used before those sprays are even discovered.

The Piklopedia is the counterpart to the Treasure Hoard, which shares the same music.

Once the debt is repaid, both the Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard's unseen entries become shown, albeit still unfilled. This was most likely added to help the player track down the last few entries they are missing.

Notes[edit]

Both Captain Olimar and Louie write some notes about every entry in the Piklopedia. These notes are merely for fun and for world-building, and rarely contain any information useful for gameplay. Only the notes of unlocked entries can be seen. The comments written by both return in the Piklopedia of Pikmin 3 Deluxe and the Piklopedia of Pikmin 4, almost verbatim.

Olimar's notes[edit]

For a full list, see Category:Olimar's notes.

Olimar's notes focus on giving information about the creature, including its scientific name, habits, biological features, and mysteries. They can be read by picking an entry and pressing GCN X.png / Wiimote Plus.png. His notes are always available as long as the entry is available.

Louie's notes[edit]

For a full list, see Category:Louie's notes.

Louie's notes provide recipes on how to cook the creature. They can be read by picking an entry and pressing GCN Y.png / Wiimote Minus.png. His notes only become available when the player defeats the Titan Dweevil and recovers Louie as a treasure for the first time. Once this happens, a global flag is set in the game's save data, and his notes become available forever, for any Story Mode slot, even if the original slot is deleted.

Recipe oddities[edit]

Interestingly, Louie references ingredients found on Earth (cultivated in oxygen). These ingredients could not possibly be known by Louie, as Hocotate has a severely different climate. A possible explanation would be that Hocotatian plants often have similar appearances to those found on Earth, meaning that Louie would be using the names he is familiar with for a completely different plant.

In addition, the following notes conflict with the way enemies die in-game in some way:

These same sort of oddities also exist in Pikmin 3 Deluxe's Piklopedia as listed here, many of which carry over to Pikmin 4's Piklopedia which are listed here.

Controls[edit]

See: Controls#Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard

Areas[edit]

When using the Piklopedia and the Treasure Hoard, the scenery will change depending on what area the ship is hovering on, on the area selection screen. Each object seen will spawn in a different, pre-specified location of the area. The Valley of Repose, the Awakening Wood and the Perplexing Pool have some notable differences compared to their in-game counterparts, while the Wistful Wild is barely any different. For a list of differences in the two versions of an area, please read the corresponding area article. The following maps illustrate a top-down view of the Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard versions of the areas, excluding the Wistful Wild, which only has differences in background theme and barely any changes to the level design at all.

These slightly changed areas were also seen in prerelease material.

Entry criteria[edit]

The leaf texture used in Pikmin 2's Challenge Mode menu. (Used on Pikipedia in the {{stub}} template.)

This section is a stub. You can help Pikipedia by expanding it.
Suggestions: List the unlock requirements for each entry.

To unlock an entry in the Piklopedia, the player must find one of that object during gameplay and do something specific to it, which varies from entry to entry.

To note is that some entries will only be unlocked, and their kill/death stats will only be updated, if the player interacts with a specific variant of that object. For instance, having a buried Armored Cannon Beetle Larva kill 3 Pikmin and then be killed will not result in any change in the Piklopedia. The following is a list of all entries with this limitation:

  • Armored Cannon Larva icon.png Armored Cannon Beetle Larva: only the free-roaming variant counts; the buried one does not.
  • Gatling Groink icon.png Gatling Groink: only the free-roaming variant counts; the tower one does not.
  • Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud icon.png Crimson Candypop Bud icon.png Golden Candypop Bud icon.png Violet Candypop Bud icon.png Ivory Candypop Bud icon.png Candypop Buds: throwing in one Pikmin is enough, it does not need to wither.
  • Figwort icon.png Figwort: only the large healthy variant counts; the small healthy, large dead, and small dead ones do not.
  • Glowstem icon.png Glowstem: only the red variant counts; the green one does not.
  • Shoot icon.png Shoot: only the large variant counts; the small one does not.

Enemies that can die[edit]

Some enemies can actually die whilst on the Piklopedia.

  • Volatile Dweevils blow up when awakened.
  • Mandiblards will lose health if they touch water, and can even drown.
  • Due to a glitch, if one petrifies a Hermit Crawmad on dry land and throws several Pikpik carrots, the creature will gradually lose health, and can die.

Gallery[edit]

Trivia[edit]

The dummy texture.
  • A dummy icon texture named zzdummy can be found within the Piklopedia's icon texture files. It's unused in the game, and it must have been used during development to represent enemies that had no icons at the time.
  • The icon textures for the Glowstem and Queen Candypop Bud have exact duplicates inside the game's files.
  • Fiery Bulblax icon.png
    The icon for the Fiery Bulblax is 80 × 80 in size. This size is only used for boss icons, whereas normal enemies have icons that are 40 × 40. This indicates that in some early stage in development, the Fiery Bulblax was meant to be a boss, as are the other two "Bulblax" grub-dogs.
  • Thrown pikpik carrots will rotate to "face" the creature. Their stems will bend away from it.
  • If a pikpik carrot lands near a Red Bulborb, Hairy Bulborb, or Orange Bulborb just as it is about to go to sleep, its yawning and lying down animations will be sped up.
  • According to Louie's notes, the following creatures are inedible: Hydro Dweevil, Munge Dweevil, Volatile Dweevil, Crimson Candypop Bud, Golden Candypop Bud, Queen Candypop Bud, Mamuta, Glowstem, Clover, Foxtail, Shoot, Beady Long Legs, Waterwraith, Shaggy Long Legs, Baldy Long Legs, and Plasm Wraith.
    • In addition, the Doodlebug has no cooking tips and is suggested to be inedible, but is not outright stated as such, the Ivory Candypop Bud is not suggested to be inedible, but spoils upon seconds of picking, and the Raging Long Legs, like the Doodlebug, is not outright claimed as inedible, but Louie's suggestion of feeding it to "unpleasant in-laws" implies that it probably shouldn't be eaten anyway.
  • The Bulborb icon used to represent the Piklopedia within the area selection menu is unique and does not seem to be exactly derived from any particular Bulborb variant in Pikmin 2. Peculiarly, when examined very closely, the icon seems to be derived from the model of the juvenile Bulbmin (as evidenced by its completely black eyes, leg coloration and proportions, and white spot placement) with the leaf stem removed. Interestingly, the internal name for the texture is chapy, whereas the internal name for Bulborbs is usually spelled chappy. In the Switch re release, a modified version of this icon is used as the standby icon for Bulbmin, strengthening the connection.
  • The Piklopedia bears many similarities to the Pokédex from the Pokémon series, as both are an encyclopedia of creatures, and both behave very similarly.
  • The entries of most of the returning enemies from Pikmin are derived from the descriptions given to the creatures in the Pikmin Nintendo Player's Guide.
  • According to Olimar's notes on the Shoot in the Japanese version, the team's reports on the planet's wildlife are based on information obtained using "portable scanners", with the hope that researchers will become interested in studying it.
