#2 Ionium Jet

#2 Ionium Jet
This is a mandatory ship part.
Weight	15
Max. carriers	25 Pikmin
Location	The Distant Spring

This article is about the ship part in The Distant Spring. For the one in The Forest Navel, see Number 1 Ionium Jet.

The #2 Ionium Jet is a ship part in Pikmin. It probably provides a slight boost, as Olimar states, but it could easily be used for smoother flying and quicker turns. Like the #1 Ionium Jet, this is needed for the Dolphin to propel itself through deep space. In Pikmin 2, the Massage Girdle is in its place. Once recovered, this Ionium Jet is installed on the port side of the ship's hull, level with the main hatch (it is to the back and left of Captain Olimar when he is seated).

It is on a stone platform in the far north of the area. To retrieve it, first throw at least 15 Blue Pikmin on the platform to the west of it, and use the nearby geyser to reunite with them. Then simply throw them across the gap to the Jet. The path to the ship from there is full of Water Dumples, Dwarf Bulbears and Spotty Bulbears, so be sure to clear the path before taking this piece.

Notes

Olimar's monologs

“I've found my #2 Ionium Jet!

It's easy on the eyes, and its fuel efficiency is easy on the budget.

---
