Suggestions: What about the Japanese/European version? Is it another treasure? If so, link to it, but specify whether it's just the appearance of another treasure, or also the location.

The Endless Repository (つきぬコンテナ?, lit.: "Inexhaustible Container") is a treasure found in Pikmin 2, but a different object depending on the region. It is a tin of Beach Cliff sardines in the US version and a can of Taiyo Fishery baby Manila clams in the Europe and Japanese versions.

In the US version, it is found in the fifth sublevel of the Shower Room, probably on a ledge or an alcove. Two types of Blowhogs as well as Dwarf Orange Bulborbs will get in the way as the Pikmin are carrying it.

If this item is located inside the water vent, it's very likely that it will get stuck while the Pikmin are carrying it. If it does, it is very difficult to get it out; it may take a lot of repositioning of the Blue Pikmin carrying it. If it takes too long to free, it's best to just reset the console and hope that the treasure is located elsewhere on the next run.

In the European and Japanese versions, this treasure can be found inside one of the two Orange Bulborbs in sublevel 12 of the Dream Den. Defeat the Antenna Beetle first so you can easily find this treasures, and then defeat the Wollywogs and deactivate the poison pipes to cleared out the path.

On the surface of the US version of this treasure, it reads:

In the Switch port, the treasure is an unbranded tinned sardines instead.

Notes

Olimar's journal

Everyone makes mistakes. Sometimes desire overpowers reason. At least, that's what I told myself when I sampled this salty snack.

Sales pitch

No matter how much you eat, this magic container is never empty. So, go ahead and have a bite! (Captain Olimar and his crony used this excuse. They later issued a written apology.)

Trivia[edit]

A screenshot of an early version of Pikmin 2. The Endless Repository is normally located on sublevel 12 of the Dream Den, while here, it is on sublevel 3 of the White Flower Garden.
Earlier location for the treasure.
  • A screenshot from an earlier version of the game shows that the European and Japanese design of the Endless Repository was originally going to be located on sublevel 3 of the White Flower Garden, and not on sublevel 12 of the Dream Den.
