The '''Libra''' is one of the thirty [[S.S. Dolphin]] pieces appearing in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''. This item is located in [[The Forest Navel]]. This item is similar to the [[Sagittarius]] and is identical in appearance. It was given to [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]] by his [[Olimar's daughter|daughter]], and is named after the astrological sign. The Libra is just like the Sagittarius except it gave Olimar memories and thoughts about his daughter. The Libra, like its cousin, the Sagittarius, could be some kind of star chart or navigational device.

The '''Libra''' ({{j|リブラ|Ribura|Libra}}) is a ship part for the [[S.S. Dolphin]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' and [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]] in {{p4}}. It was given to Olimar by his [[Olimar's daughter|daughter]], and is named after the {{w|Libra constellation|constellation}}. The Libra is similar to the [[Sagittarius]] and is identical in appearance, except that the Sagittarius is bigger. It also resembles the [[Essence of Despair]] from ''[[Pikmin 2]]''.
 
Though mandatory in both games, its function remains entirely unknown. After being collected, the Libra is installed on the ship's hull, port at cockpit level (to the left of Captain Olimar when he's seated).

Getting the Libra is very complicated, as all [[Red Pikmin|Red]], [[Blue Pikmin|Blue]], and [[Yellow Pikmin]] are needed to retrieve it. First travel to the large lake area, and go along a short pathway to the right. Go through a narrow strip of land occupied with [[Hazards#Fire|fire geysers]]. A [[bridge]] has to be built to reach the land, then throw fifteen yellows to retrieve it, and at least five blues to open up a [[geyser]] for Olimar to reach the area where they can be thrown. Then switch Pikmin from yellow to red to carry it across the fire. It should be noted that Pikmin get deflowered when carrying the Libra off the ledge. This can be avoided by calling them before they fall or simply looking away by positioning the camera.

There is a rather notorious [[:Category:Glitches|glitch]] involving the Libra. The part may bounce and fall into the abyss when pulled from the ledge it is positioned on. The part may not reappear in any way on the file (though sometimes it will reappear in a random location). Should this happen to the player, he or she should reset the game immediately, as the game cannot be completed without this part, although this has be fixed in the'' [[New Play Control!]]'' version.
{{map icon | Libra | 25 | 111}}

All three types of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are needed to retrieve it. The path toward it can only be accessed by breaking down the [[Gate|black gate]] near the large body of water. The path is littered with [[fire geyser]]s. A [[bridge]] has to be built to reach the floating island of land next to this path. At least 15 Yellow Pikmin must be [[throw]]n onto the first plateau of the island. A [[geyser]] for Olimar must also be activated by Blue Pikmin to reach the area where the Yellows were thrown. The Yellows can then be thrown again to reach the Libra. It should be noted that Pikmin usually get deflowered when carrying the Libra off the ledge. This can be avoided by calling them just before they reach the edge, letting the part slide down by itself, or by simply looking away by repositioning the [[camera]]. Red Pikmin should then be used to carry the part over the fire geysers, but it is also possible to do this with Blues and Yellows if timing is right.


It is possible to obtain the ship part using only Red Pikmin.{{cite youtube|79o04GEvocI|showing the Libra being reached with a Red Pikmin}} By [[dismiss]]ing around fifty Red Pikmin close to the [[geyser]], it can actually be activated, little by little. Afterwards, by using [[Throw#High ledge glitch|long throws]], it is possible to get the Pikmin up the ledges, and use them to reach the Libra. Alternatively, one can get a [[pellet]] close to the railing wall thanks to a chasing [[Shearwig]], and then [[lie down]] between the wall and pellet to appear on top of the railing, and from there, walk up to the Libra and push it down by lying down near it.{{cite youtube|UfqG2lc36lw|showing how to get to the Libra as Captain Olimar}}
It's also possible to get the Libra with only reds, by swarming the submerged geyser in a certain way, and then flinging the reds up to the ledge so they can still get it.

===In ''Pikmin 4''===
The Libra is in an enclosed corridor near the moat protecting a lone [[Puffy Blowhog]]. Go to the north side and use either [[Moss]]' [[rush]] or a [[bomb rock]] to break the [[jar]]s at the entrance. Enter and the Libra will be in plain sight.


==Glitch==
{{Main|Glitches in Pikmin#Libra glitch|t1=Libra glitch}}
There is a rather notorious [[Glitches|glitch]] involving the Libra in ''Pikmin''. The part may bounce and fall into the [[Pit|abyss]] when pulled from the ledge it is positioned on. It may not reappear in any way on the file, though sometimes it may reappear in a [[Randomness|random]] location. Should this happen to the player on the GameCube version of the game, they should reset the game immediately, as it cannot be completed without this part; however, it is possible to retry by returning to a previous [[day]] in the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' and Nintendo Switch versions.

*Even though the Libra and the Sagittarius are the same size when shown on the S.S. Dolphin, their sizes before being retrieved are different, and the Libra takes only 15 Pikmin to carry and the Sagittarius takes 20. In Olimar's Shipwreck Tale, both the Libra and the Sagittarius have a weight of only 5.
