| The '''Doomsday Apparatus''' ({{j|超重ギガンティス|Chōjyu Gigantisu|Super-heavy Gigantis}}) is the heaviest and most valuable treasure in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is a heavily rusted 1-kilogram {{w|dumbbell}}, and is found in the [[Wistful Wild]], not too far from the landing site. Due to its weight, 100 [[Purple Pikmin]] are needed to be able to pick up this item; and even then, it takes at least a quarter of a day to carry back to the [[Hocotate ship]].

| ==Collecting the treasure==
| | The '''Doomsday Apparatus''' is the heaviest and most valuable treasure in [[Pikmin 2]]. It is a blue, heavily rusted [[wikipedia:Training Weight|training weight]]. It is found in the Wistful Wild, not too far from the landing site. Due to its weight, 100 [[Purple Pikmin]] are needed to be able to pick up this item; and even then, it takes at least a quarter of a day to carry back to the [[ship]]. While carrying the treasure, it is advised to attack and defeat the [[Gatling Groink]], [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s and [[Decorated Cannon Beetle]] - and, if possible, [[Yellow Wollywog]] and [[Fiery Blowhog]] - in the area, so as to clear the way in advance for exploring the rest of the level. |

| The best place to amass Purples to reach 100 for the Doomsday Apparatus is the [[Subterranean Complex]], as it has three [[Violet Candypop Bud|Violet-]] and two [[Queen Candypop Bud]]s on sublevel 8, along with many [[egg]]s and a [[geyser]].

| ==Weight==
| |
| The label on this object says that the Doomsday Apparatus weighs 1 kilogram. This discovery has led to a lot of confusion. Although creating a formula from this would allow easy conversion between the in-game weight units and real-world units, the theory breaks down when real-world objects are weighed and compared to the weights predicted. For example, the [[Proton AA]] treasure weighs 6 units, whereas actual AA batteries weigh as much as 25 grams.

Another good place is [[Bulblax Kingdom]], which also has 3 Violet Candypop buds and one Ivory. This has consideralbly easier enemies, which can be ignored. |
